This study aims to empirically explore the theories by Shaked & Sutton (1987) of the relationship between market size and quality by collecting and analyzing data from restaurants in Germany and France. More precisely, this study will aim to look at the relationship between average quality and market size. Primary data of quality measurements were collected from Guide Michelin from cities of a
This paper examines the “back-testability” of Expected Shortfall and if different backtesting methods produce similar results, with the aim of illuminating whether various markets have any effect on the methods’ ability to perform. In order to answer this question, the three backtesting methods – Test 1 and Test 2 by Acerbi & Szekely, and the Approximative Quantile Test by Emmer et al. – are i
Prior articles and reports have named Credit Default Swap (CDS) spreads as a plausible indicator of default risk. In this report, the authors present a significant correlation between CDS spreads and two other more acknowledged methods of measuring default risk probabilities; the modified Merton model and credit ratings from the rating institute Moody’s. The tests are implemented by Spearman’s ran
This paper discusses Fair Trade and analyses its impact on producers and producer organisations. Fair trade was developed in reaction to the situation on the market for conventional coffee. Coffee prices on the international market fluctuate sharply and have shown a decreasing trend. In 2001 prices reached their lowest level in 30 years. The decline in prices received by producers has increased ru
Naturens resurser är inte oändliga och förnyas inte i samma hastighet som vi förbrukar dem. Genom att återvinna, minskar inte bara avfallsmängden som deponeras, utan råmaterial behöver inte förbrukas i samma utsträckning. I Sverige har vi idag en väl utbyggd återvinning där ansvaret för omhändertagande och insamling av avfall från hushåll ligger hos kommunerna, med undantag för de produkter som omEmeli Magnusson (2015) MVEK03 Natural resources are not infinite and are not renewed in the same rate as we consume them. Recycling outweighs a part of the consumption of resources, and the environmental impacts, resulting from the manufacture of new products. Recycling is an important part of getting a sustainable society, it brings us an opportunity to recycle material resources. This study exa
The aim of this report was to investigate the effects on temperature when scaling down an experiment within the area of fire safety engineering. This was done by performing a literature review and by comparing results from FDS 6 simulations in full scale with simulation results in scale 1:4. To properly scale an experiment it is necessary to take the fire power as well as the heat losses from the

They become smaller as urbanisation increases. Troublesome, according to researcher Helena Hanson, because urban private gardens affect both cities’ biodiversity and human wellbeing by functioning as social green spaces. Now she strikes a blow for gardens in the urban planning. Green spaces, such as parks and allotment gardens, have a major impact on our physical and mental health and wellbeing –

Boreal peatlands store large amounts of carbon, but warmer and drier conditions caused by climate change may turn these ecosystems into carbon sources. Equipped with drones and thermal cameras Julia Kelly, who recently received her doctorate at the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC), has studied what factors affect the CO2 fluxes in peatland ecosystems. Boreal forests and peatlands

The Nomination Committee has proposed that, from the turn of the year, LTH should be led for three years by Margaret McNamee and Ulf Ellervik. Working together and deciding who should do what was uncontroversial, say the candidates for the positions of Dean and Deputy Dean of LTH.

In recent years, reading by listening has become a widespread practice in higher education. Reading by listening involves listening to course literature read out by either a human or a speech synthesiser. The availability of study materials in a variety of formats is a welcome development, but you may need to experiment with your listening to find the right study technique. Increasing numbers of s
