Nya Ränteavdragsbegränsningsregler - En redogörelse och analys av reglernas utformning och syfte

Skatteverket uppmärksammade i en promemoria 2008 att det i stor utsträckning förekom skatteplanering med ränteupplägg. Skatteflyktlagen var inte tillämplig i dessa fall enligt regeringsrätten och Sverige valde att införa ränteavdragsbegränsningsregler 2009. Reglerna utvidgades 2013 för att den svenska bolagsskattebasen inte skulle urholkas. Till följd av Sveriges internationella åtaganden ändradesSwedish tax authorities discovered in a memo in 2008 that tax planning with deduction of interest were used in significant extent. The swedish tax avoidance law “Skatteflyktlagen” wasn’t applicable to these cases according to the supreme administrative court and Sweden choose to introduce interest limitation rules in 2009. The interest limitation rules were expand in 2013 in purpose to protect the

Formation and Evolution of Protoplanetary Disks

De första idéerna om hur planeterna i solsystemet bildades härstammar från den franske filosifen René Descartes på 1600-talet. Vad räknas solsystemet som - är denna teori bara kring planeterna eller hela solsystemet och dess komponenter?) Den teori som forskare tror på idag kan spåra sitt ursprung till mitten av 1700-talet, från den svenske forskaren Emanuel Swedenborg och den tyske filosofen ImmaA star forms with a surrounding protoplanetary disk after the collapse of a molecular cloud core. Subsequently, over a period of several Myr this protoplanetary disk of dust and gas is accreted onto the host star. We model the formation and evolution of such a protoplanetary disk using a one-dimensional numerical model. We find that disks form on a time scale of less than 1 Myr and that the size a

Utmaningar för Self-Service Business Intelligence: Ur praktikerns perspektiv

Denna uppsats undersöker vad praktiker, det vill säga utvecklare, konsulter och användare som arbetar med Self-Service Business Intelligence (SSBI), anser är SSBI. Praktikers beskrivning av SSBI diskuteras i förhållande till litteraturens beskrivning. Både praktiker och litteratur diskuterar SSBI som ett visualiseringsverktyg, men praktiker beskriver vidare att det inte är begränsat till en viss t

Våtmarkens kapacitet - kan en våtmark optimeras för att minska såväl eutrofiering som brunifiering?

En våtmarks kapacitet – går det att optimera en våtmark för att minska såväl eutrofiering som brunifiering? Att använda en våtmark i syfte att minska såväl övergödning som brun missfärgning av vattendrag, är absolut möjligt, men hur och varför är frågor som behöver studeras mer grundligt. Däremot verkar placeringen i landet i kombination med våtmarkens procentuella storlek i förhållande till avrDue to changes in land use, as well as impacts from the climate change, our inland waters are now exposed to problems such as eutrophication and brownification. This complicates management to develop clean drinking water, as well as it leads to anoxic bottoms and reduces primary production. This literature review aims to see if wetlands can work as a natural filter to reduce both nutrients (nitrog

Elevhälsans uppfattning om arbetsterapi för grundskoleelever med psykisk ohälsa efter en pedagogisk intervention i form av information om arbetsterpi - En kvalitativ tvärsnittsstudie

Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa bland barn och unga ökar i Sverige. Skolan är en av de miljöer som barn spenderar mycket tid i och forskning visar att detta kan påverka deras hälsa. Svenska skolor saknar idag modeller för att förstå och tolka barns svårigheter utifrån ett aktivitets- och delaktighetsperspektiv. Ny kompetens behövs i skolan och arbetsterapi skulle kunna vara ett komplement till elevhälsan

Somliga gator är somriga gator - En jämförande studie av Sveriges sommargågator

I städer finns det, något förenklat, bilgator och gågator. En sommargågata, däremot, är både ock. Den skapas genom att biltrafiken tillfälligt stängs av på en gata under sommarmånaderna vilket ger fotgängare tillgång till hela gaturummet. Den frigjorda ytan kan användas till verksamheter och restauranger som vill flytta ut i gatan, växter, bänkar, spel och lek, cykelställ och konstinstallationer. A summer street is created by temporarily closing the car traffic on a street during the summer months. The pedestrians get access to the entire street and the liberated space can be used for activities, greenery, benches, bike parking, art and by restaurants. During recent years major cities have made the concept known to the general public. My study shows that summer streets have a much longer

När oro blir sjukdom; En meta-analys om hälsoångestens utveckling hos universitetsstudenter

Syftet med denna meta-analys var att belysa fenomenet hälsoångest, och mer specifikt att undersöka om de generella nivåerna av hälsoångest ökat under de senaste tre decennierna. Ledande forskare på området har spekulerat kring om en ökning föreligger, då utan egentligt empiriskt underlag. Den aktuella studien hade som syfte att utgöra en del av det empiriska underlag som krävs för att göra mer säkThe purpose of this meta-analysis was to shed light on the phenomenon of health anxiety, and more specifically to investigate whether the general levels of health anxiety has increased over the past three decades. Previous research in this area has speculated whether an increase exists, although without actual empirical evidence. The purpose of this study was to be a part of the empirical evidence

Cannabis and Cancer: Early evidence on the remedying effects of recreational marijuana laws

Medical marijuana has been argued to supplement the treatment of cancer in terms of relieving symptoms and side effects occurring from treatment, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. As the legalisation of cannabis becomes more widespread across the United States not only for medical but also recreational use, any effects on the well-being on those who undergo cancer treatment could have importa

Standarder är till för att…? En innehållsanalys om tillämpningen av standarder i kursdokument på socionomprogrammet.

In Sweden, the social work programme is currently given at 15 different centres of higher education. The programs are standardised through legislation concerning the educational goals, this can be seen through curricula and syllabus. A few of the centres of higher education have chosen also to follow the global standards published by IFSW and IASSW. In this study, the curricula and syllabi from tw
