1. 11. Subsistence and semi-subsistence farms in Hungary : role, determinants and directions

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

   Author : Melinda Süveg; [2015]
   Keywords : farm household model; Hungary; ; subsistence; ; semi-subsistence; imperfect market; seemingly unrelated regressions; transaction cost;

   Abstract : This study aimed to define and characterise subsistence and semi-subsistence farms (SSFs) in the Hungarian context, with particular attention given to identifying the determinants of their production, labour allocation and market participation decisions. In order to reveal the determining factors of Hungarian SSFs’ market participation and sales decisions for goods and labour, the thesis identified the household’s seven simultaneous decision equations and econometrically estimated them using a 2013 cross-sectional dataset of Hungarian SSFs and the seemingly unrelated regressions (SUR) framework.

3. 12. Simultaneous determination of Debt, Dividend, and Inside Ownership policies : Evidence from Sweden

   University essay from Avdelningen för ekonomivetenskap och juridik

   Author : Rickard Persson; [2014]
   Keywords : Dividend policy; Debt policy; Capital structure; Inside ownership; Agency theory; Convergence of interest theory; Entrenchment theory; Simultaneous equations; Utdelningspolicy; Kapital struktur; Agent teori;

   Abstract : The main purpose of this thesis is to examine the simultaneous determination of debt, dividend, and inside ownership policies in Sweden. We apply a simultaneous equation model estimated with 3SLS. The results reveal a positive two-way causal relationship between debt and dividend polices. READ MORE

4. 13. Pricing a basket option when volatility is capped using affinejump-diffusion models

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Daniel Krebs; [2013]
   Keywords : Exotic option; basket option; risk management; greeks; affine jumpdiffusions; the Black-Scholes model; the Heston model; Bates model with lognormal jumps; the Bates model with log-asymmetric double exponential jumps; the Stochastic-Volatility-Simultaneous-Jumps SVSJ -model; the Sepp-model;

   Abstract : This thesis considers the price and characteristics of an exotic option called the Volatility-Cap-Target-Level(VCTL) option. The payoff function is a simple European option style but the underlying value is a dynamic portfolio which is comprised of two components: A risky asset and a non-risky asset. READ MORE

5. 14. Approximation of antenna patterns by means of a combination of Gaussian beams

   University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap, fysik och matematik, DFM

   Author : Adel Haydar Lazem Al-Saadi; [2012]
   Keywords : Antenna pattern; Gaussian beam; point matching.;

   Abstract : Modeling of electromagnetic wave propagation in terms of Gaussian beams (GBs) has been considered in recent years. The incident radiation is expanded in terms of GBs by means of the point matching method. The simultaneous equations can be solved directly to produce excitation coefficients that generate the approximate pattern of a known antenna. READ MORE

6. 15. An estimation of U.S. gasoline demand in the short and long run

   University essay from Institutionen för samhällsvetenskaper

   Author : Tetyana Rayska; [2011]
   Keywords : gasoline demand; price and income elasticities; short-run; long-run; 2SLS; cointegration;

   Abstract : The rapid growth of gasoline consumption in the USA for the last decades brings much concern to scientists and politicians. Therefore many researchers investigated the influence of the main factors that have an impact on gasoline demand. READ MORE
