The assessment involved life cycle cost analyses, and concerns the Swedish single-family housing stock constructed between 1961 and 1980, which accounts for about a third of Sweden’s two million single-f

The study examines the adequacy of the measurement of the cross-section of expected stock returns on the London Stock Exchange of the recent three-factor model introduced by Chen, Novy-Marx and Zhang against that of the Fama and French three-factor model. The former model use factors in addition to the market factor based on profitability and investment while the latter model use factors based on
The onset of bathing disability among older people is critical for a decline in functioning and has implications for both the individuals' quality of life and societal costs. The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term cost effectiveness of an intervention targeting bathing disability among older people. For hypothetical cohorts of community-dwelling older people with bathing disability, trans
To make good corporate strategy decisions, it is important to have reliable data. When making relocation decisions, it is important to know not only the manufacturing cost but also the production cost, cost model including the cost drivers of the whole production system. This paper presents two cost models of inbound logistics, one to estimate the costs in a current production system in detail and

This paper focuses on the role of corporate financial strategies to improve their market valuations and lower their cost of capital. The identification of successful strategies is accomplished within an overall strategic framework. The paper is built on 12 longitudinal case studies from the Nordic countries to illustrate the linkages between business strategy, firm motivation, and various financia
This paper presents a database with the probably most up-to date and reliable consumer price indices for a large sample of European countries since 1870. The database is a compilation but a contribution by going back to original or ignored works. For some Eastern European countries, where CPIs have been missing, new provisional indices are constructed. It critically examines historical CPIs in oft

Purpose The purpose is to increase the IKEA knowledge regarding production of custom made worktops at two German suppliers, providing an action plan for the suppliers of how to increase product quality as well as calculating the potential cost savings and the product cost structure. Methodology The project is performed as two case studies, where both qualitative and quantitative data has been obta
Marine endotherms in the polar regions face a formidable thermal challenge when swimming in cold water. Hence, they use morphological (fat, blubber) adjustment and peripheral vasoconstriction to reduce demands for heat production in water. The animals then regain normothermia when resting ashore. In the king penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) metabolic rate is lower in fed than in fasted individual
We examine the impact of innovation disclosure through patenting on firms' cost of debt, focusing on the American Inventors Protection Act (AIPA) as an exogenous shock in innovation disclosure regulation. Post-AIPA, firms have an incentive to apply for patents only if commercial success is likely. Accordingly, we expect post-AIPA patents to be a better proxy for successful innovation activity, and
It has been known for quite some time that urban breeding birds suffer reduced reproductive success compared to rural conspecifics. Various environmental variables linked to urbanisation are known to have an influence, such as vegetal cover and composition, artificial light at night as well as increased air pollution. Several of these factors have also been shown to elicit physiological responses:
