The definition of rural area as a primary solution of its adequate development

Ivana Faltová Leitmanová, Eva Cudlínová, Milan Jílek, Renata Klufová, Ladislav Rolínek

Acta Univ. Bohem. Merid. 2009, 12(3):45-56 | DOI: 10.32725/acta.2009.039431  

The realistic approach to the rural development requires primarily a consensual definition of a rural area. The selection of tools to be applied and measures to be taken to influence rural areas as well as the setting up the institutional framework would be difficult without defining the object of interest. The adequate definition of rural areas is therefore one of essential prerequisites for the effective resource allocation within the rural development policy.

Acta Univ. Bohem. Merid. 2009, 12(3):87-92 | DOI: 10.32725/acta.2009.043598  

Automobile transport is integral part of everyday modern live. On the other hand all the time bigger quantity of cars on roads and motorways slows down the transport speed, road are overloaded, congested, thereby human mobility holds down. Last but not least heavy traffic bears much bad influence above all for environment and landscape. On that ground it's needed to analyze individual car transport, its aspects, usage and problems. Consequences, which have been found from research, are in many cases alarming.

Acta Univ. Bohem. Merid. 2009, 12(3):103-110 | DOI: 10.32725/acta.2009.046491  

Operational Management is used on the lowest level of management. It deals with planning, organizing the tasks, their control and removing defects. But specialized transportation firms use so called dispatch management for the truck fleet. This term used in contemporary firms should imply not only above mentioned activities, but it emphasizes also more demanding activities. Each dispatcher has to ensure new orders for assigned trucks, appoint places for loading, unloading, select the best route, parking sites etc. with respect to the lowest costs and legal regulations in international transportation. The paper is oriented on the company ČSAD Jihotrans,...

Acta Univ. Bohem. Merid. 2009, 12(3):119-124 | DOI: 10.32725/acta.2009.048403  

The paper shows results of the first phase of research for the thesis on monitored logistic criterions. The offer of criterions was satisfactory for the most of companies. On the contrary, a great deal of companies screened only part of them. Only some companies stated that they use some additional criterions, which were not included in the offer of the questionnaire. It can be a proof that there is no use of logistic criterions (especially in value criterions) in the work experience in the most of companies.

Costs in the agricultural enterprises in connection with controlling system

Lenka Hudáková Stašová

Acta Univ. Bohem. Merid. 2009, 12(3):145-154 | DOI: 10.32725/acta.2009.051380  

We analyse the development of total own costs in two formed sets of agricultural enterprises in this paper. We compare the analysis in both sets and we specify an important problem which results from the analysis - high total own costs. We propose the alternative of the allocation precising of total own costs for products by using the Activity Based Costing Method instead of traditional calculation methods own costs. The principle of this Method lies in double-stage allocation of the own costs, which will enable to identify the hidden reserves and to improve the enterprise efficiency.
