Imaginary Solutions, Imaginary Reports
Vomelová, Lenka ; Kopečková, Veronika (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
I created three concepts of books, three possible graphic and book design adaptations of one novel (Tibor Déry, Imaginary reportage of american pop-festival, Budapest 1971). Every book uses a different theme from the book as an inspiration for its graphic design and every book has also a different aimed usage ( format and material of the books are created according to this presumption). First of the book concepts is a little hardy pocket book inspired by Rolling Stones and Altamont festival 1969, the second is common „publisher's“ book inspired by vizuality of 60's and the third one is a bibliophilia, collector's piece inspired by a story of two people. All the books are accompanied with posters describing the basic components and concepts.

Overlaps
Golianová, Veronika ; Kopečková, Veronika (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
This thesis is focused on interconnection of literary, visual and material forms. Viktor Dyk’s work Rat Catcher has been graphically edited and completed with original paper illustrations. These were crated using three different editions of the book. They all differenciated by publising style, thypography and paper quality that has been used through 20th century. The choice of specific fragments for specific chapter s allowed for intense connection of visual and literary content.

Reporting bonds according to the Czech accounting regulations and standards and IFRS
Macháček, Martin ; Zelenka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Zelenková, Marie (referee)
This bachelor thesis concerns the legal and economical adjustment of bonds, a bond analysis and the accounting and reporting of bonds for entrepreneurs according to the Czech accounting regulations and standards and IFRS. The theoretical part is explained using examples of discount bonds and coupon bonds. Subsequently, both systems are compared and the finding reveals that the biggest difference is in the distribution of interest. There the IFRS strictly require the use of the effective interest rate. Whereas, according to the Czech accounting regulations and standards, there is the anticipated use of the effective interest rate only for financial institutions and large corporations. Entrepreneurs usually use particularly linear distribution of interest for their needs.

The analysis of impacts of the foreign exchange intervention making by CNB on the company CGI
Macháček, Marek ; Rotschedl, Jiří (advisor) ; Čermáková, Klára (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to determine the impact of the foreign exchange intervention, which was conducted in November 2013, based on analysis of production and profit function. From the results of each analysis I can accept the hypothesis about the negative impact of the foreign exchange intervention on the company CGI. Analysis of the production function shows that if the firm is profit maximalist, it would have reduced number of employees by approximately by 30 % after the intervention. The negative impact of the intervention was also confirmed by the higher gain on the real profit function when there is changing the prices of inputs and outputs in terms of no intervention. In an analysis of a hypothetical profit function assuming a fixed variable, the hypothesis was not confirmed and contrary the higher company profit was reached after the intervention. The work also brings an interesting and valuable finding, how many employees should the company hire and what is the optimal size of the product to maximize its profit.

Professional Reflections by the CR Police Officers in Týn nad Vltavou
MACHÁČEK, Martin
The objective of this bachelor thesis is to find out how police officers serving at the district department in Týn nad Vltavou perceive their occupation in which they sometimes find themselves on a daily basis in conflicting roles of a policeman versus a friend, an acquaintance or a family member. The work aims to map the problems seen by the Týn police officers as crucial for the exercise of their profession. The thesis can serve to the executive workers of similarly big or smaller district departments to improve the work environment and strengthen the work conditions that are favourable for police officers. The findings can also be used by top managers of the Police of the Czech Republic as an incentive to change the conditions of the career growth.

Empirické eseje o pravidlech měnové politiky a inflaci
Vašíček, Bořek ; Turnovec, František (advisor) ; Šmídková, Kateřina (referee) ; Macháček, Martin (referee) ; Babecký, Jan (referee)
This dissertation is divided into four essays, each of them having its own structure and methodological framework. Although each of the essays making the chapters of the thesis is self-contained, their topics are very closely related. Consequently, the reader will be able to follow the thesis in its unity. Essay I is a selective survey of the extensive, mostly theoretic, literature dealing with monetary policy rules. We aim at contextualization of the monetary policy rules in the existing monetary economics literature. We explain the logic, the inspiration and the history of the rules for the monetary policy conduct. We distinguish between instrument rules and targeting rules as two basic categories. Finally, we resume specific issues related to policy rules for small open economies. Essay II studies the logic of short-term interest rate setting pursued by 15 EU countries before and after the launch of the EMU. We employ econometric estimation of the augmented Taylor rule (TR) for individual 15 EU countries and the Euro area. Although a vast empirical evidence is available for the major economies like the US, the UK or Germany, there is an important gap in our understanding of the factors behind the short-term interest rate dynamics in smaller economies. We find that in the period preceding the euro adoption, the TR is a poor representation of monetary policy setting in most EU countries and that many central banks considered decisions made by dominant economies rather than their domestic macroeconomic developments. The analysis of monetary policy rule of the ECB features additional problems related to the heterogeneity of the EMU. We argue that results based on Euro-area aggregated series, commonly presented in empirical studies, are subject to diverse econometric problems. We provide some evidence that the ECB is concerned also with national information and propose quasi-panel analysis as a viable framework. Essay III explores the relation between the existing monetary policy and domestic price stability in small open emerging economies, in particular the 12 EU new member states. This work has three principal objectives. First, it aims at revealing the logic of interest rate setting pursued by monetary authority of each country. The linear specification of the Taylor rule, applied already in the Essay II, is accompanied by an extensive analysis of nonlinearities in monetary policy rules and the inference on their possible sources. We find that the official monetary policy is sometimes inconsistent with the empirical evidence on the short term interest rate setting. The second objective consists in revealing the determinants of the inflation process. We have found that inflation rates are driven not only by backward persistency but also by the forward-looking component. Third, we employ analysis of the conditional inflation variance so as to give account on the viability of the existing monetary policy setting for price stability. We conclude that the policy of inflation targeting seems to be preferable to exchange rate peg because it allows decreasing not only inflation rate but also its conditional variance. Essay IV seeks to shed light on inflation dynamics of four CEEC (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) and test when the predominant model of inflation, the New Keynesian Philips Curve (NKPC), is consistent with the data of these countries. According to the microfounded NKPC, the current inflation is related to inflation expectations and the real marginal cost. The empirical validity of this model has recently become a subject of major controversy in the monetary economics. Although we find some favorable evidence for the NKPC, it seems to be too restrictive model for small open economies. In particular, the failure of the NKPC to explain the inflation dynamics of these countries may be related to the assumption that inflation is related to forward-looking price setting of domestic monopolist firms while our evidence suggests that prices in CEEC have an important backward-looking component and the inflation is significantly driven by external factors like the exchange rate and the foreign inflation rate.
