Thesis (MAcc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die belastingaftrekbaarheid van werknemerverwante voorwaardelike aanspreeklik-hede, met spesifieke verwysing na die verkoop of beëindiging van ʼn besigheid, is in meegaande studie ondersoek. Dit word bevind dat in die geval van die beëindiging van ‘n besigheid, alle voorwaardelike aanspreeklikhede op datum van beëindiging van die besigheid, waarskynlik nooit vervul kan word nie, spesifiek in geval waar dit gekoppel is aan die vereiste dat ʼn werknemer op ʼn toekomstige datum steeds in diens moet wees van die besigheid. Die voorwaardelike verpligting word dus nooit vervul nie en geen betalings hoef aan voormalige werknemers gemaak te word nie. Geen aftrekking aan die voormalige werkgewer word dus toegestaan in gevalle waar verlof- of bonusbetalings gemaak word na beëindiging van die besigheid, indien die verpligting nie reeds onvoorwaardelik bestaan het voordat die beëindiging van die besigheid plaasgevind het nie. Dit word verder bevind dat in die geval waar ʼn besigheid gelikwideer word, die voormalige en voornemende werkgewer se verpligting teenoor die werknemers se voorwaardelike aanspreeklikhede verval. Verder is dit ook waarskynlik dat geen belastingaftrekking toegestaan sal word nie, omrede die voorwaardelike aanspreeklikheid nie vervul is op datum van likwidasie nie. Dit word verder bevind dat in die geval waar ʼn besigheid as lopende saak verkoop word, die voornemende werkgewer ingevolge Artikel 197 van die Wet op Arbeidsverhoudinge verplig word om alle dienskontrakte, tesame met alle regte en verpligtinge wat bestaan tydens die oordrag, oor te neem asof hy in wese in die skoene tree van die voormalige werkgewer. Voorts word die voormalige werkgewer ook gebind aan die betaling van bedrae, soos deur die verkoopskontrak bepaal, of andersins in gevalle waar die voornemende werkgewer nie die verpligting om te betaal, kan nakom nie. Beide die voormalige en voornemende werkgewer bly dus wetlik aanspreeklik vir die betaling van bedrae soos uitgestippel in die verkoopskontrak, in gevalle waar ‘n besigheid as lopende saak verkoop word. Dit word verder bevind dat die Inkomstebelastingwet ‘n belastingaftrekking moet toestaan aan die voormalige of voornemende werkgewer wat ‘n werknemerverwante-betaling maak uit hoofde van die wette soos neergelê deur die Wet op Arbeidsverhoudinge. Sodoende sal die Inkomstebelastingwet die oogmerke van die Wet op Arbeidsverhoudinge onderskraag, met gevolglike voordelige uitwerking op die ekonomie en beskerming van werknemers se werksekuriteit. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study explores the tax deductibility of employee-related contingent liabilities, with specific reference to the sale or discontinuation of a business. It is concluded that in the case of the discontinuation of business activities, all contingent liabilities at the date of discontinuation (with the specific requirement that employees will still be employed by the business at a future date) will probably never be fulfilled. The contingent liability is thus never fulfilled and no payments need be made to the former employees. No tax deduction is therefore granted to the former employer where leave or bonus payments were made after the discontinuance of business activities, if the liability did not unconditionally exist prior to the discontinuance of the business. It is further concluded that in the case of the liquidation of a business, the former and prospective employers are released from any obligation towards the contingent liabilities of the employees. Furthermore it is also unlikely that any tax deduction will be granted, due to the contingent liability being unfulfilled at the date of liquidation. It is further concluded that in the case where a business is sold as a going concern, the prospective employer is obliged to take over all existing employee contracts as well as all rights and obligations existing at the time of transfer, in terms of Section 197 of the Labour Relations Act. The former employer is also bound to the payment of amounts, as stipulated by the contract of sale, or otherwise in cases where the prospective employer cannot honour the liability to pay. Both former and prospective employers are legally liable for the payment of amounts as stipulated in the contract of sale, in cases where a business is sold as a going concern. It is further concluded that the Income Tax Act should allow a tax deduction to the former or prospective employer who makes an employee-related payment in terms of the Labour Relations Act. As a result the Income Tax Act will support the objectives of the Labour Relations Act, resulting in a positive effect on the economy as well as the protection of employees’ work security.

O pressuposto desta pesquisa é de que a divulgação de informações ambientais, no âmbito das provisões e passivos contingentes, reagiu aos avanços na normatização contábil. A normatização contábil genérica sobre evidenciação de obrigações incertas era restrita, em meados de 1976, à Lei no 6.404, e assim permaneceu ao longo de pelo menos uma década e meia, quando começou a ser desenvolvida. Ao longo dos anos foram criados padrões obrigatórios de divulgação, com critérios de julgamento mais detalhados para a classificação da obrigação incerta em provável, possível ou remota. Embora ainda apresente algum grau de subjetividade, o desenvolvimento destes critérios pode ter contribuído para a diminuição da assimetria informacional: a empresa passou a contar com um conjunto de orientações mais claras e, portanto, com melhores condições de averiguar e divulgar suas obrigações incertas. Esse avanço contribuiu para que as obrigações ambientais passassem a ter maior exposição, principalmente no âmbito das empresas potencialmente poluidoras, como as do setor de energia elétrica, que utilizam recursos naturais e modificam o meio ambiente. Neste contexto, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as evidências de passivo ambiental divulgadas pelas empresas do setor de energia elétrica, de 1997 a 2014. Para tanto, foi desenvolvido um estudo qualitativo, descritivo e longitudinal, por meio da análise de conteúdo de 941 notas explicativas, de uma população de 64 empresas do setor de energia elétrica, de acordo com listagem na BM&FBovespa, em maio de 2015. A amostra foi constituída de 26 empresas, que divulgaram o total de 468 notas explicativas no site da CVM, de 1997 a 2014. Ao longo destes 18 anos, 14 empresas da amostra (53,85%) evidenciaram passivos ambientais ao menos uma vez e 12 instituições (46,15%) não o fizeram e, do total de 468 notas explicativas, 100 (21,37%) evidenciaram passivo ambiental. O número de evidências de passivos ambientais era pequeno em meados de 1997, mas ascendeu, com um aumento mais consistente a partir de 2006, ano que coincide com a aprovação da Norma e Procedimento de Contabilidade 22 - Provisões, Passivos, Contingências Passivas e Contingências Ativas, emitida pelo IBRACON. Adicionalmente, a materialidade quantitativa estava na média de 0,61% para provisões ambientais e 0,89% para os passivos contingentes ambientais, desconsiderando-se os outliers. A dimensão das notas explicativas, em termos de quantidade de palavras, foi crescente e diversificada. Em conclusão, a evidenciação contábil pode, em adição à evidenciação voluntária, ser um meio plausível para a divulgação de questões ambientais e redução da assimetria informacional, principalmente quando a normatização contábil se faz mais clara e detalhada. / The assumption of this research is that the dissemination of environmental informations, under the provisions and contingent liabilities, reacted to developments in accounting standard setting. The general accounting regulation on disclosure of uncertain obligations was restricted to the Law no 6.404 in mid-1976, and remained so for over at least a decade and a half, when it began to be developed. Over the years mandatory disclosure standards were created, with more detailed judgment criteria for the classification of an uncertain obligation as probable, possible or remote. Although still carrying some degree of subjectivity, the development of these criteria may have contributed to the reduction of the information asymmetry: the company has now a set of clearer guidelines and, consequently, it is in a better condition to assess and disclose its uncertain obligations. A greater exposure ofthe environmental obligations was brought about by these advancements, especially in the context of potentially polluting companies, such as the electricity sector, which use natural resources and impact the environment. In this context, the aim of this study was to analyse the evidences of provisions and environmental contingent liabilities, diclosed by the eletricity sector, from 1997 to 2014. For this purpose, we developed a qualitative, descriptive and longitudinal study, using the content analysis of 941 notes, of a population of 64 companies in the electricity sector, according to listing on the BM&FBovespa, on May 2015. The sample is composed of 26 companies, which provided their financial statements on the CVM website from 1997 to 2014, and reported the total of 468 notes. Over the 18 years period analyzed, 14 of these companies (53.85%) showed at least one environmental liability and 12 (46.15%) did not, and, from the 468 notes, 100 (21,37%) reported environmental liability. The number of environmental liabilities evidences was small in mid-1997, but it rose progressively, with a more consistent increase from 2006, the year that coincides with the adoption of Accounting Standard and Procedure 22 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Asset, issued by IBRACON. In addition, the quantitative materiality averaged 0.61% in the case of the environmental provisions and 0.89% for environmental contingent liabilities, disregarding the outliers. The notes extent, in terms of the number of words, showed growth and diversity. As a result, the accounting disclosure may be, in addition to the voluntary disclosure, a plausible way to divulge environmental issues and reduce information asymmetry, especially when the accounting standard-setting becomes clearer and more detailed.

The accounting rules, correlated to international Standards, were issued by the CPC and one of them was the Technical pronouncement, the CPC 25, which deals with the provisions and contingent liabilities and contingent assets. The contingent liability is an obligation of accounting difficult to recognition and measurement in view of the factors of uncertainty about the confirmation or not of their existence. In this context, this work had as main objective to know and analyze the criteria for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of information in the explanatory notes of the contingent liabilities (CPC 25), through a sample 17 companies corporations, capital opened and closed the sugarcane-ethanol sector in the State of S??o Paulo. The line of research was descriptive with qualitative and quantitative approach. The procedure used for data collection was the documentary research of primary and secondary sources and was motivated by its accessibility. Was analyzed a set of financial statements published annual with explanatory notes and published without explanatory notes, in the period between 2011 and 2015. The results obtained with the sample suggest that companies since segment not yet follow fully to what is required by the legislation in relation to criteria for recognition and disclosure of contingent natures and their respective content, demonstrating weakness in the context of dissemination of contingent information. These results are consistent with national and international studies conducted in other segments, which revealed low practice of disclosure and disclosure of contingent liabilities, especially the environmental. / A ader??ncia pelas normas de reconhecimento, mensura????o e divulga????o das informa????es em notas explicativas, possibilita maior confiabilidade na apresenta????o das demonstra????es cont??beis aos usu??rios para an??lise e tomada decis??o.

O presente trabalho analisará o tratamento concedido pela Lei 11.101/2005 na disciplina da alienação de estabelecimento no âmbito do processo de recuperação judicial previsão contida no art. 60 da Lei-, especificamente a importância do trespasse como etapa do plano de salvamento da empresa. Para alcançar este fim, primeiro revisamos alguns conceitos chaves, como patrimônio, estabelecimento e sucessão e o regime legal a que estão submetidos no ordenamento brasileiro, bem como similitudes com legislações estrangeiras. Para além de uma interpretação literal, buscamos abordar o tema através de uma perspectiva finalística e suas implicações econômicas, nos valendo da metodologia da Análise Econômica do Direito. A dissertação está fundada na premissa que a crise econômico-financeira da empresa não se restringe à relação devedor-credores, mas repercute fortemente no mercado justificando, por esta razão, uma visão mais abrangente do problema e a busca de soluções que escapam ao regime comum da disciplina de alienação do estabelecimento, especialmente no tocante à sucessão trabalhista e tributária. A dissertação utilizou precedentes judiciais com a finalidade de demonstrar a interpretação corrente do dispositivo pelos tribunais e sua repercussão perante os agentes de mercado. / The present work will examine the treatment accorded by Law 11.101/2005 concerning the discipline of business transfer under the judicial reorganization provision contained in article 60 of the Law- particularly the importance of business transfer as a step in the company´s rescue plan. In order to achieve this, some key concepts are first reviewed, such as estate, business and successor liabilities, and the legal regime to which they are submitted in the Brazilian system, as well as the similarities with foreign legislation. In addition to a literal interpretation, the issue is addressed through a teleological perspective and its economic implications, using the Economic Analysis of Law. This dissertation is based on the premise that financial economic crisis is not confined to the debtor-creditor relationship, but strongly affects the market, justifying a more comprehensive view of the problem and search for solutions that escape the ordinary rules of asset sale, especially with respect to labor and tax succession liabilities. The dissertation includes judicial precedents in order to demonstrate the current interpretation of the provision by the courts and its impact on market players.

In order to exemplify some points on such theme, in this thesis, it Will be performed an analytical descriptive study aiming in specially, analyze by which means psycopathy introduces itself to medicine, psychology, aiming in explore interdisciplinary on the legal aspect and penal processing criminal law. The starting point to differ will be: psycopathy from the mental disease concept in order to frame it as a personality disorder, with the objective of appraising liabilities on the psychopath individual with aims of applying responsibility upon crime committed. It will also be demonstrated, how does punishment measures adopted, currently, take place upon criminal psychopaths – measures of security of prison penalty – reflect and impact such individual, which is differed from the others due to a lack of sorrow and non capability of learning upon punishments received after it. The proposal is to reflect on the presence of such subject in the Brazilian prison system, especially, by taking into account indicative studies on higher reoccurrence fee. It will be presented, nevertheless, a critical view on the current assessments of behavior as a requisite subject to approval on benefits during penalty execution – looking forward to evaluate the State – whether they present physical structure and qualified workforce to deal with accomplishment of penalty by the psychopath, highlighting lacks in the current system. It will also be verified on the Brazilian legislation mismatch with discoveries required by medical and psychological sciences about psychopathy. Finally, demonstrated current imperfection on the prison system on the application and accomplishment of penalty by the psychopath, this thesis will propose a special regime to these subjects, which will be implemented as an adequate establishment and effective follow up with multidisciplinary team duly qualified / A psicopatia é um tema que desafia há tempos as ciências criminais e a própria Justiça. Para elucidar alguns pontos desta temática, nesta tese, realizar-se-á um estudo descritivo-analítico com o objetivo precípuo de analisar de que forma a psicopatia se apresenta para a medicina e a psicologia, a fim de explorar a interdisciplinaridade deste constructo no âmbito jurídico penal e processual penal. O ponto de partida será diferenciar a psicopatia do conceito de doença mental para enquadrá-la como transtorno de personalidade, com o escopo de aferir a culpabilidade (imputabilidade) do indivíduo psicopata para fins de responsabilização em face do crime realizado. Demonstrar-se-á, ademais, como as medidas punitivas adotadas atualmente em face do criminoso psicopata – medida de segurança ou pena de prisão – refletem e impactam nesse indivíduo, o qual se distingue dos demais pela ausência de remorso e pela inaptidão de aprendizagem a partir de castigos recebidos. A proposta, pois, será refletir acerca da presença desse sujeito no sistema carcerário brasileiro, especialmente considerando os estudos indicativos de sua maior taxa de reincidência. Apresentar-se-á, outrossim, uma visão crítica quanto às vigentes avaliações de comportamento como requisito subjetivo para o deferimento de benefícios durante a execução da pena, procurando avaliar se o Estado possui estrutura física com mão de obra qualificada para enfrentar o cumprimento da pena pelo psicopata, ressaltando as falhas da atual sistemática. Verificar-se-á que a legislação brasileira encontra-se em descompasso com as descobertas e exigências das ciências médicas e psicológicas sobre psicopatia. Por fim, demonstradas as imperfeições atuais do sistema penal na aplicação e cumprimento da pena pelo psicopata, a presente tese proporá um regime especial para esses sujeitos, que deverá ser implementado em estabelecimento adequado e com efetivo acompanhamento de equipe multidisciplinar devidamente qualificada

Um dos contaminantes dessas águas, que tem levantado diversas discussões, são os hidrocarbonetos pouco solúveis em água. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi apontar a necessidade da implantação de políticas públicas direcionadas ao processo de gestão das áreas contaminadas por postos de combustíveis no Estado de Mato Grosso, visto que estes contaminantes são fortemente danosos ao meio ambiente e à saúde humana. A pesquisa foi dividida em três etapas, onde a primeira abordou o levantamento das áreas contaminadas por postos de combustíveis no município de Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, a fim de discutir a importância do inventário para a gestão dessas áreas. A segunda etapa avaliou o risco de contaminação do aquífero, no município de Alta Floresta, Mato Grosso, com intuito de contribuir para definição de áreas que necessitam receber um tratamento prioritário, quanto à sua proteção ou a possíveis investigações adicionais, bem como a escolha do melhor local para instalações dos poços de abastecimento ou instalação de uma rede de monitoramento de qualidade das águas subterrâneas. A terceira e última etapa, foi o isolamento e caracterização de bactérias degradadoras de Diesel, encontradas em amostras de água subterrânea coletadas em um posto de combustível no município de Alta Floresta, com intuito de aplicar a técnica de biorremediação em áreas contaminadas por combustíveis derivados de petróleo. / The risk assessment to the contamination of water supplies has been a management tool widely studied today, mainly due to water shortages, causing the man resorted increasingly to the use of groundwater for human consumption. A contaminant of groundwater, which has raised several discussions, are poorly soluble hydrocarbons in water. The aim of this study was to point out the need to implement public policies directed to the process of management of areas contaminated by gas stations in the state of Mato Grosso, as these contaminants are highly damaging to the environment and human health. The research was divided into three stages, where the first addressed survey the areas contaminated by gas stations in the city of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, to discuss the importance of inventory for the management of these areas. The second step assessed the risk of aquifer contamination in the municipality of Alta Floresta, Mato Grosso, aiming to contribute to defining areas in need receive priority treatment for their protection or possible additional investigations, as well as the choice of best place for installations of supply wells or installation of a network monitoring groundwater quality. The third and final step was the isolation and characterization of degrading bacteria Diesel, found in groundwater samples collected at a gas station in the municipality of Alta Floresta, aiming to apply the bioremediation technique in contaminated areas derived fuel oil.
