The objective of this paper is primarily to compare and describe the development of the effective tax rate (relative tax burden) on the taxpayer earning only income from employment and emoluments in the Czech and Slovak Republics. The reason for choosing this type of income has been its importance in terms of the volume of tax collection in the area of natural persons income tax in the Czech Republic. The actual comparison has been performed for the years 2010, 2011 and 2012. In all cases, the legal status was considered that was valid and effective as of 31. 12. of particular year. Comparison of the effective tax rate was performed not only between the individual countries themselves, but also chronologically for individual countries (the Czech and Slovak Republics, respectively). After the general introduction, the relevant legislation as to incomes from employment and emoluments in both countries is explained. A separate chapter discusses the specification of the applied methodology, within which basic starting points and the simplifications applied are defined. Another part of the paper contains outputs from compiled mathematical models. These are presented in the form of graphic outputs and supplemented with commentary.

Secular Changes

AbstractSecular changes in twinning and triplet rates were analyzed using vital statistics in Austria, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, England and Wales, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan, and Singapore during the period from 1972 to 1996. Among those 17 countries, the twinning and triplet rates in the Czech Republic and in the Slovak Republic remained constant from 1972 to 1994, whereas these rates increased significantly year by year in the other 15 countries during the examined period in each country. Twinning rates increased from 1.2-fold in Austria to 2-fold in Denmark from 1972 to 1996. As for triplets, the rate increased from 3-fold in Denmark to 9-fold in Norway during that period. With one exception, that being the Slovak Republic, the triplet rate was highest in the Scandinavian countries, followed by the other European and Asian countries. The rising twinning and triplet rates have been attributed to the higher proportion of mothers treated with ovulation-inducing hormones and partially attributed to IVF.

This paper intends to analyze perceptions of students and teachers towards the semester system of Tribhuvan University (TU). The result of the study is based on the data collected through survey questionnaire from 40 university teachers and 194 master level students. The perception is discussed in terms of learning environment, resources, use of ICT tools, contents and activities. The findings show that the perception of teachers and students towards curriculum, teaching/learning environment, and regularity of classes and viability of semester system are in positive direction. However, the availability of learning resources and use of ICT tools in day to day teaching/learning are not in satisfactory way in the perception of the participants. Their perceptions also reveal that facilities of extra-curricular activities, play grounds and canteen are inadequate. Similarly, the teachers and students perceive that availability of both human and academic resources is inadequate. The students experience show that there is teacher domination in selection of teaching methods; less use of ICT materials to promote learning; difficulty in completing courses in the stipulated time and not timely declaring exam result. However, this system has encouraged and empowered creativity among students for learning.
