The Swedish government has set a target of achieving 100% renewable electricity production by 2040, and this target is reflected in the solar strategy of the Swedish Energy Agency that states it’s possible that solar electricity may represent 5-10% of the Swedish electricity mix by 2040. It’s not easy for different participants such as individuals, companies, farmers and housing associations to find out the value of solar self-consumption and the value of surplus solar electricity that is fed into the power grid, because there are about 120 electricity trading companies and about 170 electricity grid companies in Sweden. The electricity companies have different tariffs. The purpose of this degree project is to investigate how the value of solar electricity varies depending on which electricity trading company and electricity grid company that different participants such as individuals and companies have, and also to make profitability calculations for different cases concerning five of the major electricity trading companies and electricity grid companies, respectively. Data needed for calculating the value of solar self-consumption and sold surplus electricity are collected from the electricity trading companies and electricity grid companies. Profitability is calculated by using an Excel template from the project ”Capital budget for solar cells”. This degree project shows that the value of solar self-consumption is worth more than the value of sold surplus electricity in all cases, both for individuals and for companies. For the companies, the difference in value between solar self-consumption and sold surplus electricity is much greater than for individuals, because the companies studied in this degree project don’t receive any tax reduction for the surplus electricty that is fed into the power grid. The higher the value of solar self-consumption and sold surplus electricity, the more profitable the solar cell investment becomes. The lower the value of solar self-consumption and sold surplus electricity, the less profitable the solar cell investment becomes. The prerequisites needed to achieve 5-10% of solar electricity in Sweden are strengthening or renewal of the electricity grid, budget support for solar cells, financial support systems, education about the potential for solar electricity and how it works and the willpower among various participants to invest in solar cells.

As CO2 emissions increase, so does the average temperature, leading toenvironmental consequences such as rising sea levels, drought, and starvation.Therefore, it is essential to act towards the reduction of the CO2 emissionsto counteract these dire consequences. The Science Based Target initiative(SBTi) which is a non-governmental organization has created a framework fororganisations to set net-zero targets for 2050. The goals are accompanied byguidelines, demands and recommendations for how to measure and reportemissions across a supply chain. There are challenges and problems attached to measuring CO2 emissions formultinational companies (MNC). The emissions are divided into three scopes.Scope 3 which consists of indirect emissions coming from up- anddownstream of the focal companies has proven to be challenging to gatherdata for due to lack of proper company capabilities. This thesis aims toidentify challenges related to measuring and reporting the emissions caused bythe use of sold products, which is one of the 15 categories of Scope 3.Moreover, this study aims to create a standardized framework for MNCs byaddressing the necessary steps for collecting data for developing an emissionscalculation tool and to suggest how to properly calculate and illustrateemissions ty the focal company. Lastly, the implementability of the frameworkwill be assessed. The research methods include a case study with a set of unstructuredinterviews of nine participants. These includes engineers, innovationmanagers, sustainability managers and product managers. Moreover, aniterative process for developing a calculation tool was performed includingtesting of the tool as it was developed. The case study identified challenges of calculating emissions from soldproducts. These were of lack of IT infrastructure, insufficient data forcalculating emissions, high uncertainties of how the organization shouldconduct measuring of emissions and how to allocate resources in the SBTiimplementation. Moreover, the risks of interpreting calculated dataincorrectly were identified. Lastly, a framework was created consisting of aseven-step process including: communicating transition, assembling projectteams, covering emission, mapping data, creating the tool, task delegation andeducation and standardization.

EG-rätten är en egen rättsordning som har företräde framför den nationella rätten, vilket innebär att medlemsstaterna har en skyldighet att följa EG-rätten. Förverkligandet av målet om att skapa en inre marknad inom EG förutsätter ett gemensamt system för mervärdesskatt. Flera direktiv har antagits för att harmonisera mervärdesskatten inom gemenskapen. Mervärdesskatt är en generell konsumtionsskatt som skall bäras av slutkonsumenten. Ett avdragssystem säkerställer att skattebördan vältras framåt för att slutligen belasta slutkonsumenten. En skattskyldig person som förvärvar varor till sin verksamhet medges därmed avdrag för ingående mervärdesskatt. Vid uttag eller användning av dessa varor för privat ändamål skall den skattskyldiga personen behandlas som en slutkonsument. Motsvarande regler återfinns även när en skattskyldig person tillhandahåller tjänster för privat ändamål. Uttagsbeskattning skall ske för att förhindra att en skattskyldig person uppnår en otillbörlig fördel genom att undvika beskattning på den egna konsumtionen. Uttagsbeskattning sker genom att transaktionerna likställs med tillhandahållande av varor och tjänster mot ersättning. Enligt uttagsbestämmelserna i mervärdesskattelagen aktualiseras uttagsbeskattning när en skattskyldig person tillhandahåller en vara eller en tjänst utan ersättning eller mot en ersättning som understiger självkostnadspriset för den tillhandahållna varan eller tjänsten. I målet Gåsabäck från år 2005 konstaterar EG-domstolen att uttag för privat ändamål inte kan föreligga, enligt artiklarna 16 och 26.1 b i mervärdesskattedirektivet, när en skattskyldig person tillhandahåller varor eller tjänster mot en faktisk ersättning och detta även när ersättningen understiger självkostnadspriset för den tillhandahållna varan eller tjänsten. Således är mervärdesskattelagens uttagsbestämmelser inte förenliga med EG-rätten. Trots domen i målet Gåsabäck beslutar Skatterättsnämnden i ett förhandsbesked från år 2007 att uttagsbeskattning skall ske, enligt artikel 26.1 a i mervärdesskattedirektivet, när en skattskyldig person låter de anställda använda företagets personbilar mot en symbolisk ersättning. Skatterättsnämnden anser att beslutet inte strider mot EG-rätten eftersom det är fråga om användning av en vara i rörelsen och inte, såsom i målet Gåsabäck, tillhandahållande av en tjänst. Frågan är om förhandsbeskedet strider mot EG-rätten. Omständigheter i målet Gåsabäck tyder på att uttagsbeskattning aldrig kan aktualiseras när en ersättning utgår för en transaktion. / The European Community, EC, constitutes a new legal order, the European Community law, EC law. In situations of conflicts between national law and Community law, the EC law has supremacy, which means that the Member States are obliged to follow the EC law. The attainment of the objective of establishing an internal market within the EC presupposes a common system of value added tax, VAT. Several directives have been admitted for harmonising the VAT in the Community. VAT is a general tax on consumption, where the final consumer carries the burden of the tax. A deduction system ensures that the tax burden is brought forward until it reaches the final consumer. If the taxable person has been able to deduct input VAT on purchase of goods used for his business and then apply or use those goods for his own private use, the taxable person will be treated as a final consumer. Similarly, the taxable person will be treated as a final consumer when he supplies services for his own private use. To ensure that taxable persons do not take unfair advantage by avoiding tax on self-consumption, the transactions shall be treated as supplies of goods or services for consideration. The purpose of treating the transactions as supplies of goods or services for consideration is to ensure that VAT is a tax on final consumption. According to the Swedish VAT act, the application of goods or services for private use is to be understood to mean supplies of goods or services either free of charge or for a consideration which is less than the cost price of the goods or services supplied. In the case Gåsabäck 2005 the European Court of Justice concludes that supplies of goods and services that are effected for an actual consideration can not be regarded as an application of goods or services for private use according to articles 16 and 26.1 b of the VAT directive. This is also applied if that consideration is less than the cost price of the goods or services supplied. Consequently, the Swedish VAT act is inconsistent with the EC law. In a prelimi-nary decision of 19 January 2007, the Skatterättsnämnden decides that the use of goods forming part of the assets of a business shall, according to article 26.1 a of the VAT directive, be treated as a supply of services for consideration, although an actual consideration is paid for the transaction. The Skatterättsnämnden consider that the decision is consistent with the EC law since there are not the same services as in the case Gåsabäck. The question is if the decision is inconsistent with the EC law. Circumstances in the case Gåsabäck indicates that transactions that are effected for an actual consideration can never be regarded as an application of goods or services for private use.

This master thesis applies to the revenues from the sale of goods and their recognition in accordance with the Czech accounting standards, IAS and US GAAP. Particular chapters contain analysis of chosen problems of merchandise (goods) {--} its definition and pricing, problems of cost and income from the sale. The biggest part of the thesis is deals with the recognition of revenues from the sale of goods. At first were characterised and analysed individual methods of revenues recording, which were usefully completed with a concrete case applied to Czech accounting standards, IAS and US GAAP, with addition of the impact on the trading income of the company.
