Macroeconomical analysis of a current state of engineering and implementation of findings to a specific company case
Huber, Michal ; Luňáček, Jiří (referee) ; Štroner, Marek (advisor)
This thesis deals with the process of choosing the efficient use of the available space in which the engineering workshop is designed. To decide on the optimal focus of the workshop, a macroeconomic analysis of the Czech economy and Czech industry is used to identify segments that will prosper in the future based on the high added value and margin of their products. Subsequently, the trends of the Czech industry are identified, especially automation, robotization and additive manufacturing. Furthermore, the risks of the sector are also assessed in the form of overdependence of the economy on one segment of the industry, as well as problems in the logistics chain. These findings are then used to design a workshop that will be able to produce products with high added value and margins. A representative product, an ergonomic table, is chosen for its design. The hall is designed using the workstation layout in question for the production of ergonomic tables, as this type of layout can be further developed for automation in the future. At the same time, however, emphasis is placed on the multi-purpose nature of the production hall. On the basis of an economic calculation, the hypothesis is then confirmed that the chosen product has the potential to be sold at a high margin, since its current market price does not correspond to the production costs.

Alternative Investments in the Contemporary Period of Low Interest Rates.
Zavadil, Marek ; Schindler, Jaroslav (referee) ; Rejnuš, Oldřich (advisor)
The subject of the diploma thesis is to evaluate the development in post-crisis years and to determine the impacts that affect the current financial investment environment in the USA but also its future and create the prerequisites for other risks, which the market can affect in the next perspective and influence the global development. On this basis, a portfolio of the mutual fund will be drawn up, according to the assignment of its manager with an alternative investment component, which can adequately complement it in the current period of low interest rates.

Konvalinová, Vendula
This diploma thesis deals with the impacts of financial and economic crisis on thirty-eight NUTS 2 regions of Germany. This includes identifying trends in regional convergence/divergence for the reference period 2004-2013 and determining the probable cause of observed disparities. For this purpose, cluster analysis and beta-convergence analysis are applied and conducted for the periods before and at the start of the financial crisis and during the outbreak of the economic crisis and after its overcoming. The impacts of the crisis on economic development of each region are also investigated by using important macroeconomic indicators.

The pivotal hypothesis is that Sweden, Switzerland and Poland have managed to deal with Great Recession relatively better than other advanced economies. Theoretical section characterises chosen countries, explains fundamental terms and sets the research framework. The empirical part monitors business cycle by chosen indicators within internal and external equilibrium, cyclical development and financial stability, subsequently evaluates situation before the crisis outbreak and examines anti-crisis measures that have been taken. Empirical section is closed by SWOT which evaluates economic development during 2009-2015 period and serves as tool for main hypothesis verification.

Macroeconomic Analysis with Spatial Econometric Approaches
Macková, Simona ; Formánek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Tomanová, Petra (referee)
Spatial econometrics can bring a useful approach to macroeconomic analysis of regional data. This thesis delineates suitable cross-section data models regarding their geographical location. Neighbourhood relation is used for the analysis. The relation of neighbourhood among the regions is expressed using spatial weight matrix. We focus on spatial autocorrelation tests and introduce processes of finding a suitable spatial model. Further, we describe regression coefficients estimates and estimates of spatial dependence coefficients, especially method of maximum likelihood estimates. Besides illustrative examples we apply chosen basic spatial models on real macroeconomic data. We examine how they describe relation between household incomes, GDP and unemployment rate in western Europe. Results are compared with a linear regression model.
