I samband med en omorganisation av hälso- och sjukvården i Region Gävleborg där bland annat fyra divisioner bildades infördes det balanserade styrkortet som styrverktyg i verksamheten. Styrkortet var ett intressant verktyg för hälso- och sjukvården då det inkluderar såväl finansiella som icke-finansiella aspekter. Syftet med studien är att öka förståelsen för hur det balanserade styrkortet anpassas inom offentliga hälso- och sjukvårdsorganisationer med avseende på om det bidrar till ett gemensamt språk och en helhetsbild av verksamheten. Denna undersökning gjordes utifrån en kvalitativ fallstudiedesign inom Region Gävleborgs hälso- och sjukvårdsorganisationer. Undersökningen utfördes med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer där fokus legat på chefer och ansvariga personer inom den berörda verksamheten. Den teoretiska referensramen inleddes med allmän forskning kring styrkortet för att sedan smalas av till en mer anpassad bild av styrkortet inom studiens valda bransch. Resultatet visade att styrkortet medförde ett gemensamt språk samt att kommunikationen mellan de tre organisatoriska nivåerna spelade en central roll för en fungerande verksamhet.

The water company MittSverige Vatten (?MidSweden Water?) located in the Medelpad, Sweden was in need of a moreexclusive water carafe for restaurants and conference in the region.

The Swedish food retail market contains of three major actors, ICA, KF and Axfood, all in all dominating 75 percent of the total market shares. The scant number of retailing actors indicates that the Swedish food retail market is a highly concentrated oligopoly, which as a fact has given rise to definite discussions and argumentations concerning the market situation. But is the food retail market imperfect and how do we reach a workable competition? Economic theory does not provide any clear answer on these questions, but is rather divided into two fundamentally different approaches to define competition: the static and the dynamic perspective on competition. In an attempt to examine the competition on local Swedish retail markets, the purpose of this study is to carry out an econometric model estimating the situation.

Detta arbete har genomförts i samarbete med Vägverket Region Mitt med syfte att utvärdera hur bedömningen i de samlade  effektbedömningarna är genomförda. En samlad effektbedömning är ett dokument som ska sammanfatta vilka effekter ett vägprojekt kommer medföra utifrån befintliga dokument. Bland annat brukar den samlade effektbedömningen bedöma miljöeffekter utifrån en upprättad miljökonsekvensbeskrivning. I den samlade effektbedömningen ska både de effekter som kan värderas monetärt och de som inte kan värderas ingå. Ett flertal miljöeffekter som påverkan på naturmiljö, markanspråkstagande och barriäreffekter är svåra att värdera monetärt och hamnar då under ej prissatta effekter.

Uppsatsen jämför och diskuterar hur svenska hushålls bostadsutgifter har utvecklats i relation till deras disponibla inkomst och/eller totala utgifter. Detta görs från 1980-talet till 2000-talet. Den undersöker också hur skillnader mellan olika hushålls bostadsutgifter som andel av disponibel inkomst varierar beroende på vilken inkomstdecil, geografisk region som hushållet tillhör, vilket år det skaffat sin bostad samt vilken upplåtelseform det handlar om. Avslutningsvis diskuteras om det finns en risk för ett prisras på den svenska bostadsmarknaden..
