Titel: Hur verkligt är verkligt värde? En studie om underprissättning vid börsintroduktioner Seminariedatum: 2 juni 2023 Kurs: FEKH69 – Examensarbete i redovisning på kandidatnivå Författare: Oskar Brunnéd, Simon Sandström, Jamal Shamma Handledare: Liesel Klemcke Syfte: Studien syftar till att undersöka ifall underprissättningen vid börsintroduktioner på Stockholmsbörsen och Nordic Growth Ma

This paper investigates the correlation between Sweden's municipal equalization system and economic growth and efficiency for the years 2005 to 2022. This paper uses panel data for all 290 municipalities and a fixed effects model to study the two main parts of Sweden's municipal equalization system: the income equalization system and the cost equalization system. This paper examines multip

The increase in female labour force participation rate can be considered as the most significant labour market trend taken place over the last 120 years in the United States. However, despite the drastic increase, women’s labour participation has stagnated since the mid-1990s. There is a lack of research about the social aspects of FLFP including how anti-egalitarian views reinforced by media repr

This paper examines relocation of taxpayers during 2000 to 2021 across Swedish local work regions and its implications on the tax system. There exist 290 mu- nicipalities in Sweden, which are divided into 67 local work regions. Relocation is categorised as either relocation within or outside local work regions. Furthermore, a distinction is made between age and income groups in order to capture po

In this paper, we introduce two computer simulation models to study molecular exchange between aggregates in a colloidal dispersion. The Brownian motion of the colloidal aggregates is simulated as a random walk with a Gaussian distributed step length. In model I, the exchanging molecules are simulated as discrete particles with the exchange process characterized by desorption, molecular diffusion,

Mice deficient for SPI-group ETS transcription factors PU.1 or SPI-B fail to generate lymphocytes or do not mount normal antibody mediated immune responses, respectively. PU.1 expression is restricted to B-, T-lymphocytes and macrophages, while SPI-B is expressed in B- and T-lymphocytes. SPI-C is an ETS transcription factor closely related to PU.1 and SPI-B, and expressed temporarily during B-cell

This paper deals with approximate solutions to integral equations arising in boundary value problems for the biharmonic equation in simply connected piecewise smooth domains. The approximation method considered demonstrates excellent convergence even in the case of boundary conditions discontinuous at corner points. In an application we obtain very accurate approximations for some characteristics

We outline a descriptive framework of how candidate alleles of the immune system associate with infectious diseases in natural populations of animals. Three kinds of alleles can be separated when both prevalence of infection and infection intensity are measured-qualitative disease resistance, quantitative disease resistance and susceptibility alleles. Our descriptive framework demonstrates why all

Objective acoustic parameters have been measured in 30 school classrooms. These parameters include usual descriptors of the acoustic quality from the listeners’ standpoint, such as reverberation time, speech transmission index, and background noise level, and two descriptors of the acoustic properties for a speaker: Voice support and room gain. This paper describes the measurement method for these

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a potent first-line agent for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) with activity also against a significant part of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Since PZA is active only at acid pH, testing for susceptibility to PZA is difficult and insufficiently reproducible. The recommended critical concentration for PZA susceptibility (MIC, 100 mg/liter) used in the Ba

Drawing on his anthropological field work in Bolivia in the midst of profound social and political change, the author examines the attitudes of various interlocutors toward knowledge, and in particular the important differences between “hegemonic theories of knowledge and indigenous epistemologies, between propositional and non-propositional knowledge, between knowledge of the world and knowledge

Excited-state proton transfer has been hypothesized as a mechanism for UV energy dissipation in eumelanin skin pigments. By using time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, we show that the previously proposed, but unresolved, excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) of the eumelanin building block 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) occurs with a time constant of 300 fs in aqu

A density functional theory of the spatial distribution and biaxial nematic order of polymers of arbitrary length and rigidity inside a spherical cavity is proposed. The local order of different chain segments is considered as an alignment to a spatially varying director field of cylindrical symmetry. The steric interactions are taken into account in the second virial approximation. Polymer densit

A structural characterization of mixed micelles formed in aqueous solution by the PEO-PPO-PEO triblock copolymer P123 and the nonionic surfactant C(12)EO(6) was carried out using various techniques, including ultralow shear viscosimetry, depolarized dynamic light scattering (VH-DLS), depolarized static light scattering (VH-SLS), and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The sphere-to-rod transition

Pathogenic microbes acquire the human plasma protein plasminogen to their surface. In this article, we characterize binding of this important coagulation regulator to the respiratory pathogen nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae and identify the Haemophilus surface protein E (PE) as a new plasminogen-binding protein. Plasminogen binds dose dependently to intact bacteria and to purified PE. The plasm

Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2D) has been applied to beta-carotene in solution to shine new light on the ultrafast energy dissipation network in carotenoids. The ability of 2D to relieve spectral congestion provides new experimental grounds for resolving the rise of the excited state absorption signal between 18,000 and 19,000 cm(-1). In this spectral region, the pump-probe signals fro
