Consumer credits and tools used for their comparison
Skalický, Tomáš ; Půlpánová, Stanislava (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with consumer credits. It aims to familiarize potential applicant for the consumer credit with fundamental information and facts which are necessary for orientation in these broad problems. At the beginning, new law, which came into force in January 2011, is analyzed in detail. That is followed by an introduction of methods of classification of consumer credits with emphasis on mutual differences between particular types. Principal part focuses on methods of assessing and comparison of advantages of consumer credits by means of interest rate, rate of increase and annual percentage rate of costs. Finally, particular bank and non-bank credit offers are compared by using above mentioned tools of evaluation of the profitability of credits.
Meaning of debts in the capital structure of czech companies
Wiedová, Zuzana ; Marek, Petr (advisor) ; Makovec, Martin (referee)
The goal of this thesis is the analysis of indebtedness in czech industrial companies. I try to describe the situation in particular sectors during years 2001 - 2008. The important part of this thesis is statistical chapter. There I look for relations among economic factors and also create the simple regression model. I found out the positive change of ratios, however in the year 2008 the financial crisis influenced the czech economy, which had the impact on particular sectors. I proved that the correlation between return on assets and debt ratio exists and also the model for the estimated interest rate works.
The Sustainability of Government Deficits: Old Vs. New Europe
Plocek, Tomáš ; Stankov, Petar Valeriev (advisor) ; Potužák, Pavel (referee)
This work analyses fiscal sustainability and position of old and new members of EU and offers some fiscal policy implications to deal with debt reduction in the aftermath of the current fiscal crisis in the EU. Fiscal policy of Old European countries is different from fiscal policy of the new members. Due to different historical development New European members have lower debt and lower GDP per capita. Many policymakers in New Europe tried to increase GDP of their countries by generating government deficits. On the other hand Old European countries are already having large debts and current fiscal crisis is one result of this fact. The recent fiscal crisis in Europe raised the question what is sustainable fiscal policy and how to achieve it. Sustainability of the policy can be divided into three groups: short term, medium term, and long term. In short term, fiscal policy is sustainable, when government is able to issue and sell government bonds. Otherwise it defaults. In medium term, fiscal policy is sustainable when debt to GDP ratio is constant or decreasing. Situation in long term is very similar to situation in medium term. The difference is in time. Long term fiscal policy is sustainable if debt to GDP ratio converges to some finite number. All the definitions are problematic and problem arises basically from fact that variables that are part of the definitions are volatile. Fiscal policy that might seem to be sustainable in times of economic expansion may become unsustainable even in short time. Exactly this thing happened in Ireland. Ireland shows another problem of sustainability definitions. The problem is that private debt can increase public debt and even threaten its sustainability. Many countries were saving their financial sector which was very expensive and this practice is increased the debt in those countries very fast. Probably the most important indicator of fiscal sustainability is interest rate on government bonds. Reason is that price of the bonds is based on different risks that are in the assets. Countries with sustainable fiscal policy are paying lower interests than countries with unsustainable. This is reason why we tried to explain variation of interest rate on 10 years government bonds by empirical models. Two models were based on fixed effects panel data estimations and one model was based on ordinary least squares model. The panel data model showed that there was and still is huge difference between Old European and New European countries. Old Europe was viewed by markets as one segment which is relatively risk free. This lead to situation, that most important factor driving interest rates in Old Europe is the risk free rate on the German bonds. On the other hand, interest rates in New European countries are influenced by many more indicators. Most important indicator in New Europe is GDP growth and sustainability of foreign exchange reserves. Based on results of the model we came to conclusion that there is high chance that markets will start to differ among Old European countries and this could lead to increase of interest rates in some Old EU members, a conclusion which is to some degree being verified by the increased spreads between German government bonds on one hand, and Italian and Spanish bonds on the other hand in the first few weeks of August 2011. Our conclusions also suggest that the position of New Europe may stand similar in current situation. If it is true policymakers may try to adapt policy of New European countries to increase its sustainability and improve the key variables. The conclusions from this work bring several policy recommendations for improving the fiscal sustainability in Europe. First and probably the most important recommendation to fiscal policy is that policymakers should not underestimate the indicators of fiscal sustainability, which was a common practice in recent history. Countries with high GDP growth were generating large deficits and debt to GDP ratio was constant. Problem is that in recession indicators that were influencing interest rate changed and fiscal policy become unsustainable in many cases. Conclusion for fiscal policy is that policymakers should run responsible fiscal policy in good times to avoid troubles in bad times. Governments should also understand full price of deficits, because increased deficits also increase interest rate that governments have to pay on existing debt.
Define integral in Economics
ČERMÁK, Pavel
In thesis task there was mentioned little bit of indefinite integral theory and computation methods. After that was described the definite integral theory, its properties, computation methods, first of all the Newton-Leibniz formulary, and its connection with indefinite integral. Then was shown where is possible to use definite integral on examples in mathematics. The most important part of the thesis is the application of definite integral theory on examples in economics. Each subchapter is occupied by one application. At the beginning of each part the rough description of economics view is contained. Then is defined an equation eventually equations for computing. All of this is demonstrated on examples.

Testing for uncovered interest rate parity: any unfinished business?
Cincibuch, Martin ; Vávra, David
We hypothesize that the rejection of the UIP using conventional methods may stem from unnecessarily restrictive assumptions traditionally imposed on distribution of exchange rate expectations and we illustrate the potential power of less restrictive methods of UIP testing.
