Štáhl, Jiří ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Morávková, Jana (referee)
The purpose of this master thesis is comparison of the tax burden of Czech a Swedish employees. The first part describes tax systems of both analyzed states focusing on the taxation of income from employment according to the 2016 legislation in order to successfully perform the calculations in the following sections. The second, practical part is dedicated to the comparison of selected indicators. It consists of two parts. The first is focused on the calculation of average effective tax rate for various income groups and various types of taxpayers. The next part compares values of redistribution indicators, which are interval and global progressivity indicators (Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient). The final section is devoted to the comparison of conclusions of this thesis with conclusions of thesis with similar subject, that have been successfully defended.

The Determinants of Software Piracy in European Countries
Kozlova, Alina ; Janíčko, Martin (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
This thesis's main focus is to test the influence of selected growth factors on the rate of software piracy in 25 European countries. The model uses the following determinants: GDP per capita, the Gini coefficient, GNI per capita, gross domestic spending on research and development, the share of labor force with tertiary education, index of economic freedom, intellectual protection rights index and internet coverage. Based on data for the years 2007 - 2011 I present 5 econometric models, which are estimated with the help of a panel regression. It turns out that economic factors such as GDP and GNI per capita, have a negative impact on the piracy rate and annual growth of internet users supports increasing level of piracy. The other determinants do not significantly affect the piracy of software, but the negative direction of the growth of the workforce educational level on piracy was confirmed.

Comparison of the tax burden of employees in the Czech Republic and in the United States of America
Buček, Jan ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Kostohryz, Jiří (referee)
The purpose of the master thesis is to compare the tax burden of employees in the Czech Republic and in the United States of America according to the legislation in 2016. The theoretical part is devoted to the description of tax systems, focusing on the taxation of income from employment. In the part United States I briefly mention the development of the tax system. The practical part consists of two chapters. The first one is focused on the calculation of the effective tax rate for taxpayers from selected types of households. The second one deals with global progressivity of the income tax. Equal income distribution in society is analyzed using the Lorenz curve and the Gini coefficient. The calculations indicate progressive tax effects both in the Czech Republic and in the United States with higher rate of tax progression and also higher inequality of income distribution in the United States. In the issue of effective rates of income tax is evident higher tax burden in the United States. Differences of total effective rates are decreasing between both countries.

Comparison of the tax burden of employees in the Czech Republic and in Belgium
Hrubanová, Adéla ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Beneš, Jonáš (referee)
The thesis analyzes and compares tax burden on employees in the Czech Republic and Belgium. The first part summarizes the tax systems of the two countries, and describes how to proceed in the calculation of their tax burden. The second part deals with the comparison of effective tax rates for different types of taxpayers. The third part discusses the tax progressivity in terms of local progressivity, which is measured by using provided intervals and determines for which income categories is the progressivity most important. Lorenz curve in the last part shows graphically global tax progressivity and redistribution of income in society. The Gini coefficient measures it. Final evaluation highlights the important ties between the two countries, compares with other countries of the European Union and its future development especially in the area of taxation of wages.

Taxation of income from employment in the Czech Republic and in Germany
Malá, Hana ; Finardi, Savina (advisor) ; Vančurová, Alena (referee)
The purpose of this master thesis is comparing the taxation of income of employees in the Czech Republic and Germany. The theoretical part is focused on describing the taxation of income of employees in both analyzed states. This part also includes an explanation of the social insurance system in both countries. The empirical part of thesis oncentrates on a comparison between the tax burden of Czech and German employees among various income groups and various taxpayer. The tax burden is then compared with the effective tax rate. The final section of this thesis compares values of redistribution indicators, such as indicators of interval and global progressivity (Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient.

The Estimation of Probability of Default Using Logistic Regression
Chalupa, Tomáš ; Dlouhá, Zuzana (advisor) ; Formánek, Tomáš (referee)
The aim of this work is to develop a suitable model that estimates a probability of default of client's loan. As estimation method was used a logistic regression and a probit regression and two definitions of default, 60 and 90 days overdue. The work describes the method of construction, estimation and testing of scoring models and a structure of dataset, which was used in the practical part. Firstly, it was created a theoretical model that was later confronted with estimates. Estimated models were compared by described statistics as McFadden R^2, the ability to diversify was investigated by the Lorenz curve and by the Gini coefficient. It was found that the logistic and the probit regressions have almost the same results, and that 90 days is preferable definition of default than 60 days.

Comparation of the degree of income inequality in the Czech Republic and Hungary between years 2009 and 2013
Slámová, Adéla ; Barák, Vladimír (advisor) ; Štekláč, Jiří (referee)
The thesis compares the degree of income inequality in the Czech Republic and Hungary. It focuses on the historical development of both countries especially during transition, the degree of their European integration and provides some economic theories, which deals with the distribution of income in society. Part of this thesis is the analysis of the factors that contribute to the final size of the extent of income inequality and a comparasion of the size of the Gini coefficient for each year in the period 2009 and 2013. The main contribution of this analysis is that in the Czech Republic, the biggest problem is the lack of university students with the main filed in technology and expectable crisis of the pension systém, while in Hungary, the main reason for the ever growing income inequality is mainly low-educated population and high social benefits for parents, which discourages them from re-entering the labor market.

Comparison of the tax burden of employees in the Czech Republic and in Ireland
Křivanová, Jana ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Bušovský, Ladislav (referee)
The purpose of the thesis is to compare the taxation of the employee income in the Czech Republic and in Ireland with appropriate legislation of 2015. In theoretical part, I describe tax system of both states with an emphasis on taxation of income from employment. The theoretical part contains also a short summary of tax systems development. Practical part is divided into two different sections. First of them is focused on the calculation of effective tax rate for taxpayers in different types of households and the second one deals with the calculation of interval and global progressivity of tax in both countries, together with an analysis of income equality or inequality in society by using the Lorenz curve and the Gini coefficient. The calculations showed a progressive tax effects in both the Czech Republic and Ireland, with higher rate of tax progression and higher degree of income inequality in Ireland. From the perspective of effective income tax rates, higher tax burden is imposed in Ireland. The effective tax rate is on average 13.5 of percentage points higher than in the Czech Republic. This is also confirmed by the legal provision of the relevant tax legislation.

Comparison of the tax burden of employees in the Czech Republic and in Austria
Krčmářová, Simona ; Kubátová, Květa (advisor) ; Beneš, Jonáš (referee)
This master´s thesis compares a taxation of employment in the Czech Republic and in Austria. The effective tax rate and the effective rate of the total burden employee analyzes the tax burden on emplyee for various types of taxpayers. The next chapter examines the interval progressivity of taxes in both states and it evaluates, for which taxpayers a degree of progressivity of the income tax is the most sensitive. Lorenz curve before and after taxation in the last chapter shows the distribution of income between employees and the impact of taxation in order to redistribute the income in society. Coefficients compiled from the Lorenz curve for the Czech Republic and Austria quantify the degree of income redistribution through a progressive income tax.

Financial Situation of Households
Ševčík, Zdeněk ; Bína, Vladislav (advisor) ; Bartošová, Jitka (referee)
The aim of this work is to analyze and assess the financial situation of households in the Czech Republic in the period 2005 to 2009. The work also focuses on the assessment of the financial situation of households made up of unemployed and incomplete families with children. Additional analyses deal with the age aspect, municipality size and level of education of head of household. Then I will calculate the Gini coefficient and construct the Lorenz curve for the entire period 2005 - 2009 and regionally for year 2009.
