Comparison of the current development of the Chinese and Indian economy
Procházka, Jiří ; Žamberský, Pavel (advisor) ; Hasík, Gabriel (referee)
The goal of this bachelors thesis is to find the cause behind current uneven economic landscapes of China and India. I have achieved this goal through utilising comparative analysis. Through the analysis, I have determined that both economies developed in a similar fashion up until the 1960s. After this period I have compared the economic development of both countries until the end of the Indian transformation period in the year 1998. I focused on the transformational process of both countries, specifically the aspect of opening up of both economies to foreign trade and capital i.e. I compared their trade and investment policies. Via the content of these policies which I confront with the macroeconomic reality I determined their effectivity and I searched for key differences that are responsible for the current uneven economic state of the two countries. The main differences that I describe in the paper are the differences in sector structure (Indian focus on services as opposed to Chinese focus on manufacturing), opposite approaches to producer surplus and the execution of the transformational process (the aspect of opening up).

Welfare state and indebtedness
Šnapka, Jakub ; Jiránková, Martina (advisor) ; Žamberský, Pavel (referee)
With respect to the eurozone debt crisis, the topics of public finance, chronic deficits of public budgets and sustainability of public debt came to the foreground of public debate. Due to that the discussions on legitimacy and sustainability of the welfare state in the form we know it today. In the discussions on public finance health, it is practically impossible to avoid the biggest public expenditures component, which, no doubt, the systems of social security, healthcare and other public services are. The thesis is dedicated to relationship of public indebtedness and public expenditures on welfare state of the old member states of the European Union. In three chapters, it analyzes theoretical grounds of welfare state and public indebtedness, public expenditures on welfare state and their influence on the public debt, influence of other budgetary components and ability of the state to collect taxes. The main question is whether countries which are spending relatively more on welfare state, are at the same time relatively more indebted.

Ocenění akcií na kapitálových trzích
Melnyk, Dmytro ; Taušer, Josef (advisor) ; Žamberský, Pavel (referee)
In this paper, we examine the foremost valuation techniques and propose a target valuation of the publicly traded stock, swiss-based Ascom AG. The thesis consists of three parts and begins from the detailed review of the stock market, trading instruments and methods of equity valuation. Then we move beyond theoretical issues and continue with the updated valuation case, which has a practical implication. The main method used in valuation is the discounted cash flow (free cash flow to firm), supported by the relative valuation of a peer group of companies. The valuation is supplemented by the detailed financial model constructed in MS Excel. The final outcome of the valuation is 12 months target price of the valued company, while the final chapter emphasizes on the practical interpretation of the obtained results.
