Analysis of consumers' preferences for cars on Slovak market.
Nedeľka, Michal ; Ščasný, Milan (advisor) ; Sargsyan, Yermone (referee)
This thesis investigates the effect of registration tax and fuel prices on the car market in Slovakia. Using the dataset provided by the Department of Evidence and Papers of Slovak Police Force with information about vehicles that entered the national car evidence, we compute monthly registrations of passenger vehicles. Given the nature of our data, we estimate pooled OLS model with fixed effects, focusing on different vehicle segments. We also analyse fuel price elasticity when prices were mostly decreasing or increasing to examine asymmetric response of car buyers. Results suggest a negative impact of the registration tax on the number of registrations of petrol vehicles with a stronger response of fuel efficient cars compared to less efficient. In the segment of diesel vehicles, only registrations of used and less efficient cars are affected by the tax. The elasticity of registrations with respect to fuel costs is negative for all car segments except for the new efficient petrol-fueled vehicles. Registrations of diesel vehicles are more sensitive with respect to fuel price changes than petrol cars in most segments. We also find an asymmetric response to fuel prices during the periods of price increases and decreases and declining responsiveness over time. JEL Classification C23, O18, Q31, R41,...

Rajniakova, V. The impact of trade unions on labour market in selected OECD countries. Bachelor thesis. Brno: Mendel University, 2018. The aim of this bachelor’s thesis is to define and examine the relationship which exists between trade unions and labour market indicators, with the emphasis on unemployment. On the basis of defined indicators representing trade unions’ power, the economic impact of trade unions is analysed, which is rather ambiguous according to various studies and so effect of trade unions on labour market can vary in different countries. Results of empiric analysis of panel data, which were obtained and presented in the second part of thesis, validate the fact that relationship between trade unions and unemployment is different for particular groups of countries based on the type of their social system where power of trade unions is distinct from one another.
