Fast driftställe enligt OECD:s modellavtal i ljuset av elektronisk handel

The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether the concept of permanent establishment, as defined in Article 5 of the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and Capital, is applicable to electronic commerce and if so whether the current definition is able to appropriately deal with the challenges of electronic commerce.In 2003, the OECD added a new section to the Commentary on the Model Tax Convention on Article 5. The new section is a clarification on the application of the permanent establishment definition in electronic commerce.The current definition of permanent establishment in the Model Tax Convention relies on the physical presence of a foreign corporation as the threshold for source taxation. While the current definition, prima facie, might be applicable on electronic commerce, the highly mobile nature of electronic commerce might affect the current revenue distribution equilibrium between states..

Redovisningskonservatism -En studie om redovisningens försiktighet i Sverige

This study aims to measure the effect of accounting conservatism and to identify thebusiness activities causing firms to undervalue owners? equity. To estimateaccounting conservatism, we have followed the hypothesis that no firm over time cangenerate a return greater than its cost of equity, i.e. CAPM. Thus, if a firm in factgenerates an excess return over time, we assume that the excess return is an estimateof accounting conservatism within that firm.The hypothesis originates from the corporate valuation model ?Economic ValueAdded®? which tries to adjust for accounting bias.

Reflektioner kring rationaliteter : Diskursivt tänkande kring feminism, samhällsfilosofi och dataetik

Vilken grundläggande idé utgår vi ifrån när vi talar om förnuft och rationalitet och vilka konsekvenser får detta för synen på individen, individen i samhället samt individen i datasystemet? Uppsaten belyser problematik rörande den icke-situerade individen, vilken inte är en individ utan snarare en skenbar produkt utav homogena värderingar. .

Trä och fukt ? Mätmetoder för fuktrelaterade dimensionsförändringar hos trä och deras användbarhet, med två fallstudier inom konservering

This thesis deals with different methods for measuring moisture-related dimensional changes ofwood. Typically relative humidity is measured to determine if the ambient climate around anobject is harmful to it or not. Values between 40 to 65% RH are recommended for hygroscopicmaterials. To know how a wooden object actually reacts to changes in the surroundingenvironment requires methods that involve the object itself. Because of the wood anisotropy,differences in wood structure, finishes and other restraints, it is not always possible to predict themovements.This paper addresses various measurement methods, primarily methods that have been testedin the field of conservation, with examples of their use.

Hur inverkar kontrollbordet på frekvenskurvan vid lyssningsposition i kontrollrummet när placeringar av högtalaren och lyssningsposition placerats efter ITU-R BS.1116-1 rekommendation?

The acoustics in a control room is a complicated phenomenon. Early reflections, reverberation time and area in the room are some of the problems. This report is about the reflection on the mixing console in a control room. The control room being built, these reflections are difficult to take into consideration since the mixing console is one of the very last items you place in the room. This report will explain three main measurements that were done in order to get the answer to the following question: Does the mixing console interfere the frequency curve at listening position? Three measurements were done and the difference between the measurements was that the microphone and the loudspeakers were placed in different places in the control room.

Kvinnors upplevelse av att leva med permanent tarmstomi : En systematisk litteraturstudie

Bakgrund: Permanent tarmstomi är ett kirurgiskt ingrepp där en bit tarm läggs ut på magen och avföringen samlas ihop i en stomipåse. Tarmstomi blir aktuell då sjukdom eller skador föreligger i tarmen. Kvinnor med permanent tarmstomi kan uppleva en förändrad självbild och utveckla depressiva symptom. För att lindra kvinnorsnas lidande blir det därmed viktigt att sjuksköterskan har förståelse för deras livsvärld. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva kvinnors upplevelser av att leva med peramnent tarmstomi.Metod: Systematisk litteraturstudie med ett induktivt tillvägagångssätt. 10 vetenskapliga artiklar valdes ut och analyserades med en kvalitativ manifest innehållsanalys.Resultat: Många kvinnor hade svårt att identifiera sig med den förändrade kroppen och upplevde sig ha lägre värde som kvinna.

Konstruktion av småsäckstömmare

Scania CV is one of the world's largest truck manufacturer. It is not only the directproduction of vehicles and methods that are important for Scania but also the servicemarket handling spare parts, repairs and workshops. The department Vehicle ServiceInformation construct standard times through work measurement for particularworks in the workshops. The software application STAM is used in the servicemarket to create and store standard times which then are exported to theworkshops' own systems.The purpose of this master thesis is to analyse and evaluate the internal workmeasurement system that includes standard times and the software STAM. Also,based on external analysis and benchmarking of other systems suggest appropriatefuture development within the area for Scania Vehicle Service Information.In order to perform the investigation, interviews and studies have been doneinternally at the departments that are involved in work measurement as well asexternally at Scania workshops.

Bidrar vår intuition alltid till mer bias?

Syftet med studien var att undersöka huruvida utsattheten för ?sunk cost-effect? och förankringseffekten ökade vid intuitivt processande jämfört med analytiskt processande. Deltagarna i studien var 78 studedenter vid psykologiska institutionen vid Göteborgs Universitet. Datainsamlingen gjordes genom en pappersenkät. En 2 × 2 - vägs ANOVA avseende bias och process gjordes för både ?sunk cost effect? och förankringseffekten i en mellanindividdesign.
