Analýza prvního pětiletého plánu na příkladu národního podniku KOH-I-NOOR, spojené kovoprůmyslové závody, Praha

This thesis analyzes the first five-year plan at the national enterprise KOH-I-NOOR, spojené kovoprůmyslové závody, Praha (KOH-I-NOOR, United Metalworking Plants, Prague), examining production plans and their fulfillment. The main objective of this thesis is to verify the hypothesis that the goals set out in the first five-year plan were not met. The thesis first deals with the issue of a centrally planned economy. It then focuses on the economic and political situation in Czechoslovakia in the years 1945-1953, where the first five-year industrial plan is also described, with an emphasis on light industry. The practical part is devoted to the actual examination of the company. Archival data from the KOH-I-NOOR a.s. fund, NAD 1916, stored in the State Regional Archives in Prague, was used for the analysis. The research concluded that the hypothesis had been disproved, as the company had successfully fulfilled its five-year plan. Furthermore, the work lists the factors that influenced the course of the five-year plan's fulfillment and points out the specifics of the company's functioning in a centrally planned economy. In this way, it contributes to a deeper understanding of the issues of light and consumer industry.
