In economics, a cost curve is a graph of the costs of production as a function of total quantity produced. In a free market economy, these curves are used by the entities to find the optimal point of production, where they make the highest profits. There exist several different types of cost curves, while each of them is relevant to a different area of economics. In the article, authors are focused on solution of cost-functions modelling, both short-run cost function and long-run cost function under circumstances of risk and uncertainty. Considerations about factors of risk and uncertainty are based on an irrefutable fact that companies are not separate...

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 33-42 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030033  

Receivables are the significant area of assets in the entrepreneurs reporting system and in the banks reporting system as well. It is necessary to pay attention to this area and to be flexible in the reaction to changes in the risk of bad debts. Impairment of the bad debts is the reaction to these changes. The impairment is based on the prudence principle and the true and fair view principle. There are quite different rules for impairment application for taxation purposes in the Czech Republic than for financial reporting are set up by Income Tax Act. The paper is concerned with the comparison of ways of bad debts impairment reporting in the entrepreneurs'...

Companies classified as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) account for a large proportion of Europe's economic and professional activity. In practice, 99 % of business in the European Union are SMEs, and they provide two-thirds of all private sector jobs. So small firms are, in fact, the real giants of the European economy. Micro-business dominate employment in countries such as Italy 47 % and Poland 41 %, whilst the share of large enterprises in total employment in the United Kingdom is just 46 %.During the recent period of time there have been many researchers from the FBE MUAF in Brno, who focused on the analysis of the small and medium-sized...

The paper describes the income analyses and consumer demand analyses for foodstuffs, mainly meat and meat products of the childless and households with more maintained children in SR. Following the carried out analysis we can state that compared with the childless families the expenditures for foodstuffs in families with maintained children are by 40 % lower for commodities such as meat, fish, fruits, vegetables. Potatoes only reach a 50 % share in childless households. The demand for meat in total was price elastic within all groups of households (Epi = -1.01 to -1.57) and for pork the price elastic demand was observed only with...

Funding development of the company through the "Initial Public Offering" has a high representation globally, the Czech Republic unlike, and belongs to traditional methods of raising funds necessary for development of business in the developed capital markets. In the United States of America, Japan and in the Western Europe countries the method of company funding through IPO has been applying for several decades already. The first public stock offerings began to be applied in these markets in higher volumes from the beginning of the 60th of the last century. From that period importance of IPO goes up globally and the initial public stock...

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 107-114 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030107  

A graphical user interface (GUI) of any web-based object or classical structural enterprise business software constantly hasn't lost its user importance. It really stays as a one of very relevant manners for a client communication with any contemporary developed software units (programs, applications, modules and Software Complex Systems). In addition to this mission, every GUI is regarded as a one of three considerable basic software unit layers. GUI units can be inherently positioned inside software units or we can separate them and construct a special GUI system over GUI units. Naturally, we have to define a manner of communication between software...

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 115-122 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030115  

The aim of this paper is to evaluate consumers' perception of bread quality in Slovakia. Bread belongs to essential foodstuffs and we all have it served on our table every day.Cereal products keep their importance in people's nutrition mainly because of their preventive effects on health. They saturate about 40 % of the daily energy need of an average European, who in average acquires from cereals about 30 % of proteins, vitamin B1, niatin and phosphorus, around 1/6 of fats (out of it 19 % of linol acid), almost 60 % of saccharides, 1/4 iron and about 13 % of vitamin B2 and calcium. If we add some cereal fiber which is an effective prevention factor...

Jitka Poměnková

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 123-132 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030123  

The purpose of the paper is to identify GDP growth cycle of the Czech Republic by means of turning points identification using alternative statistical method - non-parametric kernel estimate. Special type of estimate, convolution Gasser-Müller one, is used. An advantage of this approach is possibility to estimate derivations of unknown function, which is suitable especially in the case of turning points searching.For identification of growth business cycle type results of nonparametric estimate of regression function is used. Obtained residuals, growth component, are considered as growth cycle type and are analogically identified. On the basis...

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 133-140 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030133  

The first case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in the Czech Republic appeared in 2001 and since that a total of 28 infected cows have been detected. Two outbreaks of BSE in 2007 and no diseased animal in 2008 confirms that, in the Czech Republic, the disease incidence has a decreasing trend, which is in an agreement with the situation in other EU countries. According to the Veterinary Act No. 166/1999, farmers with BSE disease are indemnified from the state budget. The state, therefore, significantly contributes to the prevention and mitigation of BSE and ensures epidemiologic health in our country. Between the outbreak in 2001 and 2008,...

On normality assumptions for claims in insurance

Milan Stehlík, Luboš Střelec

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 141-146 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030141  

The aim of this paper is to discuss effects of deviations from hypothetized normality. Two models are considered, one is the first pension pillar (and we consider here very small samples, which plays some role at start of some pension system or at early phases of it) and second one of modeling for IBNR (here we consider mid-samples). We will show that at early phases of 1st pension pillar in Slovakia the estimation of upper probability of oversizing of critical constant given by Potocký and Stehlík, 2005, fits well. For the case of IBNR reserves, the date given by Stelljes, 2006, are significantly more skewed and thus further research is...

Acta Univ. Agric. Silvic. Mendelianae Brun. 2009, 57(3), 147-152 | DOI: 10.11118/actaun200957030147  

Aim of the paper is to delimitate a partial procedure in the process of modelling and simulation of decision-making results took by individual market subjects. Article's fundamental is an elemental example of agent system (and derivatively multiagent system) utilization by means of computer technology, which represents so-called computer malingering or computer simulation method. Next to classical word argumentations and mathematically-statistical methods this approach represents a relatively new tool applicable in social sciences (principle of autonomous agent was described in the year 1986).Application is effected by the help of freely accessible...

The morgage rate is the most important factor for economic subjects decision of residential investment. Afterwards, it is analysed causality between mortgage volume and selected factors via multiple regression analysis. Based on this analysis, influencing factors for multiple...

Fruit consumption and production in Slovakia was very low for many years and it is still decreasing. Paradoxically, population consume less fruit today as it was in 1990 although the supply of home made and imported fresh fruit has got better.The aim of the paper is to identify and analyse the attitude and behaviour of Slovak fruit consumer from Nitra region on the basis of questionnaire research. The main task is consumer perception of information about fruit and also difference between home made fruit from Slovakia and imported soft climate fruit from abroad. We have used an association analysis to find out dependence between individual answers...
