The diploma thesis deals with analyzing of tax burden on consumption in European Union member states. The goal of hypothesis testing was to decide whether the tax burden on consumption in European countries is in convergence or not. The method used in the thesis is the test equivalence of two mean values (t-test). The work begins with the consumption taxes and their harmonization. Next two parts are focused on indicators of consumption tax revenues and implicit tax rates. Tax burden on cigarettes is analyzed in the last chapter. Statistical hypothesis are tested in practically oriented chapters. Differences in consumption taxation between groups of new and old member states in European Union are evaluated by the tests. Differences are tested also in each group between the years 1995 and 2011. Statistically significant difference wasn't found in most cases in the thesis. Tests approved that consumption taxation in the European Union is not in convergence.

The thesis investigates a connection between the publishing industry and the film industry. It analyses whether films based on best-selling books have higher revenues and return on investment compared to films based on unsuccessful books or original scripts. Data for years 2009 -- 2015, focusing on the U.S. entertainment industry, show that film adaptations of best-selling books reach higher revenues during their opening weekend of the theatrical release. The Bestseller Effect weakens once the information about film's quality becomes available to the audience. The success of a book plays negligible role in film's returns on investment. The results of analysis also show great positive significant impact of the production budget, the star cast, films quality and sequels on the films'financial performance.

A presente dissertação tem como objetivo apresentar a capacidade de investimento e de poupança própria dos 10 municípios de menor PIB do Estado de Goiás, no período de 2004 a 2013. Na composição do montante de receita dos municípios têm-se, além da receita própria, as receitas oriundas das transferências intergovernamentais, por meio do FPM (Fundo de Participação dos Municípios) e do FPE (Fundo de Participação dos Estados) da quota-parte do ICMS, respectivamente. Neste estudo, as receitas dos municípios são apresentadas separadamente; o que se busca, ao compará-las com a evolução das suas despesas em determinado período, apreender a capacidade de poupança própria corrente e a capacidade dos municípios de liquidarem suas despesas, mediante a utilização de suas receitas próprias; bem como, conhecer o quanto estes dependem das transferências intergovernamentais para realização de investimentos. Para realização da pesquisa, optou-se por uma abordagem quantitativa. Quanto aos fins, a pesquisa é exploratória e, como meios de investigação adotou-se a pesquisa documental e bibliográfica. Utilizou-se do critério do PIB, para identificar os municípios que apresentavam maior dependência de receitas intergovernamentais, no Estado de Goiás. Os resultados revelam que há capacidade de investimento, mas que esta é positiva se utilizado os recursos de terceiros; e que o índice de capacidade de poupança própria em todos os municípios estudados foi negativo. Conclui-se que não há recursos oriundos da poupança própria para serem aplicados em investimentos. Os resultados demonstraram ainda que as receitas oriundas de transferências intergovernamentais representam a maior parte da receita total dos municípios; que as receitas próprias correntes são insuficientes frente aos gastos municipais; tal fato evidencia que os municípios dependem dos recursos da União e Estados para que possam se manter. / This paper aims to present the investment and savings capacity of the lowest-GDP towns of the State of Goiás, in the period from 2004 to 2013. For their revenue composition the towns, besides their own tax collection revenue, count on the revenues of intergovernmental transfers, receiving their share of the ICMS (tax on merchandise and services circulation) through the FPM (Towns Participation Fund) and the FPE (States Participation Fund), respectively. In this study, the towns income is presented separately, seeking, by comparing them with the evolution of their expenses in a given period, to understand their ability to manage their own savings and to pay for their expenses using their own resources; as well as, to know how much they depend on intergovernmental transfers for their investments. We have chosen a quantitative approach to carry out this research. It has exploratory purposes and, as means of investigation we have adopted the documentary and bibliographic research. The GDP criterion has been used in order to identify the towns with greater dependence on intergovernmental revenues, in the State of Goiás. The results show that there is some investment capacity, but that this is only positive if the resources of third parties are used; and the saving capacity index in all the studied municipal districts was negative. It is concluded that there are no funds from their own savings to be invested. The results showed that the revenues of intergovernmental transfers represent the greatest part of the total revenue of the towns; that their own resources are insufficient to pay for their expenses; and this fact shows that the towns depend on the resources of the Union and States in order to keep up with their commitments.

The research undertaken in this study is designed to examine the reliability of management estimates of expected future net revenues from the production of proved oil and gas reserves determined in accordance with the requirements of the prediction model specified in ASR No. 253. The issue of the required disclosure of earnings forecasts has been a topic of considerable controversy for many years. Within that controversy, the most frequently encountered opposition questions the reliability and ultimate utility of earnings forecasts. Similar opposition to both past and present forecast disclosure requirements exists in the oil and gas industry. In order to examine the reliability of management estimates of expected future net revenues, a two-part analysis was conducted. In the first part of the analysis, error metrics comparing management forecasts to actual results were computed and examined. Included in the examination were various relationships among and within the computed metrics. In the second part of the analysis an attempt was made to establish the association between the error metrics and specific related variables. It was anticipated that the degree of association determined would provide evidence of the relative accuracy of management in predicting the timing and volume of future production within the framework of the prediction model.

This work deals with an assessment and economic return on investment project. The theoretical part describes price formats, methods of drawing up an object budget, a payback period, costs and revenues matters and ways of financing construction projects. The practical part of this work focuses on acquiring costs and revenues emerged during the construction implementation and the use of the building. Costs incurred during the implementation will be obtained by means of itemized and general construction budget. Having obtained these values, there will be carried out a profit and loss account, from which a payback period will then be calculated.
