Concerns for the environment and our impact on it are becoming more prevalant; however, we rarely act accordingly. Consumers mainly choose products based on perceived personal benefits despite the environmental motives that increasingly affect them. The purpose of this thesis is to identify the major drivers behind the purchase of ecological wine. A quantitative study was conducted, using Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as an initial starting point. The subsequent model was then completed with three variables: environmental concern, feelings and word-of-mouth.

I samband med den stora Enron-skandalen i USA, då företagets revisor hjälpte till att undangömma stora skulder från dess aktieägare, blossade än en gång debatten om revisorers oberoende upp. Några av de faktorer som enligt tidigare forskning ofta påverkar revisorns oberoende är storleken på arvodet, längden på revisionsuppdraget och det reviderade företagets storlek. I vår studie kartlägger vi andelen utfärdade Going concern-varningar bland finansiellt stressade företag som fortlevt samt prövar om finansiellt stressade företag som för första gången erhållit en GC-varning är mer benägna att byta revisor än andra finansiellt stressade företag som inte erhållit någon varning. Vidare prövar vi om finansiellt stressade företag är mindre benägna att byta revisor om de haft sin revisor under en längre period. Studien avslutas med att vi kontrollerar om de revisorer som har utfärdat en Going concern-varning till finansiellt stressade företag som inte gått i konkurs förlorar mer i uteblivet arvode än de revisorer som inte utfärdar någon varning.

Bakgrund: En revisors oberoende är ett viktigt och debatterat ämne, speciellt i skuggan av de skandaler som kantat 90- och 2000-talet. Revisorns uppgift är att granska ett företags finansiella information och ge ett utlåtande om upprättandet av dessa är i rang med lagar och standarder. En av de fyra grundpelarna för upprättandet av redovisning är Going concern postulatet. Detta postulat innebär att ett företags redovisning upprättas på en Going concern basis, det vill säga att det förutsätts fortleva en överskådlig tid. En av revisorns uppgift är att granska hur företaget tillämpat denna princip och se om det är ett rimligt antagande att företaget kan överleva 12 månader framåt.

In this essay I reflect on a situation where I as a preschool teacher amworried about a child whose behavior I cannot understand nor recognize. The situation is characterized by the fact that I cannot explain my worries to my colleagues. I also discuss why different pedagogues understand the same situation differently, the importance of children´s play and how it creates opportunities to social interactionThrough my reflections I can understand my concern and show that it is justified.  I also discuss the act of reflection as a method. Reflecting is a way to increase or knowledge. But I also claim that reflection might be used collectively by reflecting together we might increase our shared understanding and also find out how to proceed with our common work.The conclusion is that reflection is an important tool for us pedagogues when we want to increase our understanding and our knowledge.

During recent decades several studies have investigated how different social roles and socialization processes between women and men affects our attitudes, values and priorities to environmental problems. Many empirical studies among the general public, indicates that women tend to show a greater environmental concern than men, because of women?s different health- safety- and risk perception. Even though the results are well established among the general public, when investigating if elected women in public offices tend to express a higher environmental concern, than do men, the results are not that clear. By using a dataset covering all the 290 municipalities in Sweden, this study aims to investigate if there is any correlation between the amount of female representatives in the municipality and the amount of emissions of CO2e per capita.

The purpose of this essay is to examine and compare the news covering of Swedens three biggest cities (the metropolitan areas) and their surrounding areas with the covering of the rest of the country (the provincial areas) in two daily national newspapers, Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter. The aim has been to answer the following questions:- What amount of the news coverage in Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter concern the metropolitan areas compared to the provincial areas, and how do these two newspapers differ in the news covering of these areas?- Is there a difference in the news articles size and content, depending on weather they concern the metropolitan or the provincial areas?- How has the balance between news concerning metropolitan and provincial areas changed over the recent 20 years?The theories used in this study are News values, the media commercialization and Popular Journalism, and The Agenda Setting Theory. The method that has been used is a Quantitative Content Analysis.Despite the essays hypothesis, that the news coverage in the two newspapers would be dominated by material from the metropolitan areas, the result showed that a majority of the examined articles concern the provincial areas. It also showed that Aftonbladet has a bigger percentage of provincial news than Dagens Nyheter.

Bakgrund och problem: Antagandet om fortlevnad ses i redovisningspraxis som ensjälvklarhet. Problemet är att tillämpningen av fortlevnadsprincipen inte alltid ger enrättvisande bild av bolagets ställning. Dessutom sker stora förändringar i reglering ochnormgivning utan att principen tas upp till diskussion.Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att utvärdera redovisningsprincipen Going concern. Syftetär dessutom att beskriva hur principen skildras i redovisningsteorin, i de svenskaregelverken samt försöka ge en bild av begreppets status i nutida svenskredovisningspraxis. Vi kommer även att utvärdera Going concern som bedömningsamt dess relevans ur ett redovisnings- samt revisionsperspektiv.
