Škopková, Hana ; Ščasný, Milan (advisor) ; Kameníček, Jiří (referee)
This thesis estimates the benefits of water quality improvement on Macha Lake using the contingent valuation method. The aim of this thesis is to show the main problems related to the application of the contingent valuation method in general and in the Czech Republic. First, the methodology of contingent valuation is described in detail. Since the case study on Macha Lake deals with the valuation of improvement of eutrophicated water body, the main issues regarding the water quality are discussed with a special focus on the problem of euthrophication. Following part summarizes selected attitudes towards the application of contingent valuation method on freshwater quality in foreign countries.

Also other countries' experience with income contingent loans is provided in order to find out the options to fulfil all the criteria for case an English system fails to do so. Although it is shown that the income contingent mechanism meets both criteria sets it is concluded that the English system includes a number of weaknesses. For example, it suffers from low adaptability to labour market needs, suboptimal quality of education or inefficient...
