Pengaruh Waktu Paparan UV terhadap Nilai Sudut Kontak Lapisan Polistiren(Ps)
Authors: Setiana Mira
Published: May 2023

Polistiren(Ps) merupakan bahan polimer yang banyak digunakan untuk aplikasi sensor karena sifat viskoelastiknya. Permukaan lapisan Ps yang bersifat hidrofilik sangat diperlukan dalam aplikasi sensor untuk cairan. Permukaan yang bersifat hidrofilik dapat diperoleh dengan memodifikasi permukaan lapisan Ps menggunakan paparan sinar UV. Pada penelitian ini, waktu penyinaran UV yang digunakan adalah selama 30 menit, 60 menit, 90 menit, dan 120 menit. Variasi waktu penyinaran UV bertujuan untuk mengetahui perubahan sifat permukaan Ps. Hidrofilisitas polimer terkait dengan berat molekul dan polaritas polimer. Hal ini dapat dianalisis dengan menggunakan karakterisasi nilai sudut kontak lapisan Ps. Karakterisasi lapisan Ps setelah dipapari sinar UV dilakukan dengan menganalisis perubahan nilai sudut kontak. Berdasarkan percobaan yang telah dilakukan didapatkan bahwa semakin lama penyinaran UV menyebabkan semakin rendahnya nilai sudut kontak lapisan Ps. Nilai sudut kontak paling rendah yang dihasilkan adalah sebesar 55,801o ±0,0563o setelah dipapari sinar UV selama 120 menit.

Agamben e a proximidade entre democracia e totalitarismo
Authors: Piccoli Luiz Felipe H.
Published: May 2023

Neste artigo buscaremos expor os vínculos associativos entre democracia e totalitarismo, conforme proposto por Agamben, que remetem a origem teológica dos conceitos políticos. A democracia contemporânea encontra-se hoje ameaçada. Para esclarecer a situação em que se encontra e os perigos que a ameaçam, não basta estar ciente apenas das teorias contemporâneas que procuram esclarecê-la, mas é preciso também trazer à luz os fundamentos ocultos que a compõem. Agamben sugere que há uma “secreta solidariedade” entre democracia e totalitarismo. Essa associação estaria vinculada ao controle sobre a vida, mediante sua captura no estado de exceção. Com o intuito de entender não só esse aspecto do poder, referente ao uso da força, mas também ao seu cerimonial e liturgia, – ao qual o exercício do poder nunca abandonou – buscamos acompanhar a investigação genealógica feita pelo autor. Na sua tentativa de explicitar os elos que articulam conceitos como oikonomia e glória, Agamben mostra que mesmo após a suposta separação entre teologia e política no Estado laico, permanecem vínculos entre elas mediante assinaturas conceituais. Concluímos defendendo a necessidade da exposição desses vínculos para que a práxis política possa ser aprimorada.

Identifying, Analyzing and Recommending Parameters and their Weightage for the Design of an Educational Public Experience
Authors:   School of Planning and Architecture, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India, Mishra Aamlan Saswat
Published: May 2023

With the passage of time, the life in this world is getting faster and public spaces are the only spaces of interaction, relief and relaxation in urban areas. Under such circumstances, these spaces can be used as a medium for educating the public regarding various things. People can be taught many things of importance to them as well as for welfare of the community through many means and this paper attempts to explore parameters in architectural and urban design which can be used as a medium for educating the public. Further study has been done to find sub-parameters which can suggest pinpointed interventions to narrate stories and teach people through public spaces. Furthermore, statistical research on survey results has been conducted to understand the impact of these sub parameters upon the public. The data has been analyzed to find the optimal direction of research and development of certain parameters for more efficient learning spaces in public areas. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been carried out to identify parameters and their weightage for investing resources for the best quality of educational public spaces with minimum investment of resources. Interpretation of statistical research reveals interesting facts on which parameters should attract more expenditure in current designs and which should attract more research for future development to maximize development of public educational experiences.
‘Waste to Wealth, Art of Reuse’- Learnings from Innovations in Urban Public Space Designs
Authors:   Professor & Academic Research- Lead, BMS College of Architecture, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, Patil Dakshayini R
Published: May 2023

The paper aims to explore innovations in architecture & urban design (UD) of public spaces executed with materials created out of waste products to demonstrate concepts of circular principles as exemplar to the society at large. Focus on designing public spaces is to showcase- firstly, immediate need to address waste crisis; secondly, ways by which recycled waste can be adopted as a mainstream attitude. Trash need not be abused in landfills, rather can become input for production. Study objectives dwell in addressing developing countries, where paradigm of ‘Waste to Wealth’ becomes one of the fundamental criteria for emerging as Smart cities. Once civic spaces attribute responsibility to the impending environmental crisis, momentum gains at grassroot-community level as public spaces bear more visibility & appeal. Need for industrial ‘re-revolution’ is sensed to reverse the negative impacts and encourage upcycling culture with efficient management of Municipal solid waste (MSW) which forms largest component of a city’s waste-output. This study discusses theories and case studies which adopted MSW in innovative ways under two broad objectives of design- aesthetics and functionality. Highlight will be on Zero-waste economical urban initiatives to enhance imagery. The study derives a ‘Toolkit for public space design’ using MSW as framework for UD schemes.
Platform based Innovation Ecosystems: Value Network Configuration Perspective
Authors: Lähteenmäki Jarno , Töyli Juuso
Published: May 2023

A platform-based innovation ecosystem links multiple markets and their corresponding stakeholders for joint value creation and innovation around a platform, and it is critical for the platform sponsor to manage the configuration efficiently for maximized value and survival. Through a multi-case study, we propose a configurational framework for platform ecosystems to analyze multi-stakeholder business structures, boundary decisions and their relationships. We define the context as for-profit business networks that leverage a digital platform to create multi-sided market circumstances and to engage partners as well as customers in joint innovation and value creation. Empirically we study five small to mid-sized digital information and communication technology platforms and their ecosystems. The discoveries elaborate on the four characteristic configurations and activities involved in the platform ecosystem management, and show configurational differences between open, semi-open, and closed innovation ecosystems. We propose the value-network configurations for the ecosystem, upstream producer, downstream consumer, and partner driven scenarios. Contradicting the existing literature, we argue that complementarities are created by two different producer actors and the consumption is influenced by two different downstream actors. We also argue that an internal production platform can be considered a platform ecosystem for innovation in the case of the extensive use of external knowledge and resource sources. The results extend the understanding of a platform ecosystem as a multi-layered configuration, and show what are the roles of different functions in the multi-layered structure.

The structure of accounting theory. Part 1
Authors: KOLCHUGIN Sergei V.
Published: May 2023

Subject. This article examines the main approaches to the construction of the theory of accounting, namely the inductive and deductive ones.
Objectives. The article aims to identify the advantages and disadvantages of each of the approaches, analyze the structure of the theory of accounting in detail, and identify it at the present stage of development of accounting as a science discipline.
Methods. For the study, I used combinations of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, and historical and logical research methods.
Results. The article defines the structure of the theory of accounting that includes the objectives of financial reporting, postulates and theoretical concepts of accounting, as well as the principles and techniques of accounting.
Conclusions and Relevance. The article concludes that of the two existing approaches to the construction of the theory of accounting, the inductive approach has a number of significant drawbacks that do not allow building a full-fledged theory of accounting. The deductive approach also has a number of drawbacks associated with understanding the axiomatic basis and the inference rules, but it helps lay the scientific foundations for building a complete and consistent theory of accounting. The results obtained can be used to create the theory of accounting.

Interventions to Improve the Candidate Experience of Structured Videoconference Interviews
Authors: Deacon Amanda , Moore Jordan , Powell Deborah
Published: May 2023

Intense competition for talent has led to increased organizational focus on improving how applicants perceive and respond to selection tools. Because of the recent increased use of technology in selection, we tested whether modifying aspects of videoconference interviews could improve applicant reactions. We tested two interventions—structured rapport building and question provision—with 205 applicants applying for a research assistant position. Applicants were randomly assigned to either an experimental condition (rapport or question provision) or the control condition and participated in a structured videoconference interview, followed by a survey. Structured rapport building had no significant effect on applicant reactions. However, question provision improved applicants’ perceptions of overall fairness and chance to perform—but not their reported anxiety, relative to the control condition. Question provision appears to be a simple and cost-effective intervention that could be used in a structured videoconference interview context to help to improve the applicant reactions.
"That is an interesting question!" Oddball Interview Questions and Organizational Personality Perceptions
Authors: Zhang Don , McCord John-Luke
Published: May 2023

Oddball interview questions have gained both popular and academic traction in recent years. Regardless of the intentions behind these questions, job seekers will form judgments about the employer based on its selection tactics. This paper examined the effect of oddball interview questions on organizational personality perceptions and subsequent attraction to the organization. In a time-lagged online experiment, we found organizations that asked oddball interview questions (vs. traditional interview questions) were perceived as more innovative and stylistic, which had a positive indirect effect on organizational attraction. Despite the positive effect of oddball interview questions on these organizational personality perceptions, oddball interview questions did not improve participants' overall attraction to the organization. The effect was not dependent on the job seekers’ personalities. Practitioners aimed to improve recruitment success by asking unorthodox interview questions should look elsewhere.
Sistem Pakar Identifikasi Hama Dan Penyakit Pada Tumbuhan Kakao Menggunakan Metode BFS (Breadth First Search) Dan Certainty Factor Berbasis Android
Authors: Rahmadhan Gilang , Zakariyya Fakhrusy , Puspitasari Trismayanti Dwi
Published: May 2023

Abstract - Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) is a plantation commodity other than coffee that is suitable for smallholder plantations, because this plant can produce throughout the year, so it can be a source of daily or weekly income for cocoa farmers. One of the factors that affect the decline in productivity is pests and diseases. Diseases and pests of cocoa plants can be distinguished based on signs and symptoms. Symptoms of pests and diseases can be observed with the naked eye which characterizes the type that causes these pests and diseases. To overcome these problems, an expert system was created to identify diseases and pests on cocoa plants using the BFS (Breadth First Search) method and certainty factor. The BFS (Breadth First Search) method is used in the manufacture of this system because it can perform periodic search for symptoms and search broadly for each symptom. In addition, the certainty factor method is added to the making of this system to calculate the certainty value of the identification results, so finding conclusions or results from identification using the BFS (Breadth First Search) method will be more accurate with the certainty value of the certainty factor method.

The Covid-19 pandemic is one of the events that had an impact on life. Various steps have been taken by the government to prevent the spread. The number of cases that continues to increase makes various policies implemented. One way to do this is by giving the Covid-19 vaccine. Vaccination is still being carried out until the community gets the third dose of the vaccine (booster). Vaccination can give Post Immunization Adverse Events (AEFI). The AEFI experienced can differ from one person to another. Therefore, the Covid-19 vaccine type recommendation system can help to minimize the presence of AEFIs by providing the type of vaccine that is by health conditions.

Published: May 2023

One of the main challenges faced by the community in their daily activities is the problem of transportation. Transportation of goods and services is an important topic that attracts the attention of the business world today. Closely related to the transportation sector is the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP).

The VRP variant used in this study is the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) which uses the capacity limit of the vehicle used. CVRP is used to minimize the distribution route of goods at IKM Snack FITRIA located in Sidoarjo. The problem of distribution at IKM Snack FITRIA is how to manage the route of shipping goods from the warehouse to a number of shops/customers scattered in various places in Surabaya, Sidoarjo and Gresik efficiently. This research includes planning the route of each transport vehicle in delivering products to consumers spread over several points originating from one depot. The vehicle in one day sends goods from the warehouse to the customer with one delivery. While the algorithm used is Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). ACO is used because it is able to show the best route for the optimal solution of 98%. And get a minimum total mileage with a low level of variance.

Authors: Maximo Larissa , Barbosa Claudia , Costa Natalie , Nehab Sylvia , Maximo Luísa
Published: May 2023

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the implementation of the 2010 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines by the obstetrics and neonatology teams of a tertiary public hospital located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. METHODS: This retrospective study included the medical records of pregnant women who underwent vaginal-rectal swabs at the hospital between Nov. 1, 2014 and Oct. 31, 2015. Of the 595 included swabs, 122 were positive for Group B Streptococcus (GBS). After excluding incomplete medical records, malformations, and women who delivered at other hospitals, 85 pregnant women with positive swabs and 92 newborns were included. RESULTS: The prevalence of maternal colonization was 20.5%. The time to vaginal/rectal swab collection ranged from 18 to 39 weeks of gestation, with a mean of 34.9 weeks. Thirty-three of the 85 included pregnant women (38.9%) were not properly managed, since in 19 cases delivery occurred within less than four hours of antibiotic administration, and in 14 prophylaxis was not initiated when indicated. Five of the 92 included newborns (5.4%) were not properly managed, mainly due to unnecessary screening for infection; screening was incomplete in one case, since blood culture was not ordered although the guidelines in effect required it. Of the 86 newborns with management considered adequate, 53 (61.6%) had mothers who were also adequately managed. Thirty-three (57.75%) of the newborns managed adequately had mothers submitted to inadequate obstetric management. CONCLUSIONS: Although the 2010 CDC guidelines for prevention of early sepsis by GBS has been implemented in the hospital, we have detected failures in maternal intrapartum prophylaxis and newborn assessment. Failure to adhere to the established guidelines yields missed opportunities to prevent early-onset GBS sepsis.

Distance Teacher Training in Periods of Emergency (COVID-19 Pandemic)
Authors: Kotsidis Konstantinos , Anastasiades Panagiotes , Synnefakis Christos , Spanoudaki Alexia
Published: May 2023

The closing of schools at the beginning of spring 2020 in Greece highlighted the need for school distance education to make up for lost teaching time and to maintain learners’ contact with the educational process and other members of the school community. However, the teachers needed support in this urgent situation since they did not have previous experience with school distance education. The Laboratory for Advanced Teaching Technologies for Lifelong Learning and Distance Education (E-Learning Lab) of the University of Crete attempted to contribute with its own means to the support of these teachers. Within this framework, fast-paced, distance seminars were designed and implemented to support teachers on pedagogical issues of distance education. A total of 20 distance training seminars were conducted from 19 March to 29 April 2020, in which more than 40 000 teachers of primary and secondary education in Greece participated. The overall presentation and assessment of the training actions showed not only the enormous interest of the teaching community but also the need for such training actions. The paper proposes that particular emphasis should be placed on the principles and the methodology of school distance education, synchronous and asynchronous learning environments, and the design of lesson plans based on pedagogical approaches compatible with distance learning.
Disrupting Whiteness as Higher Education: Towards a Systemic Decoloniality
Authors: Knaus Christopher
Published: May 2023

This creative conceptual paper expands traditionalised academic approaches through integrated narratives, plays, lyrics, and poetry as decolonial method. Based in first person narratives, informal interviews, artistic expression, and music-integration, the author clarifies tensions in decolonial strategy, including moving beyond racial representation to acknowledge and respond to racialised poverty, racism built into the fabric of higher education, and an overarching denial of racial disparities. The paper begins with a discussion of the student-created and produced play, The Fall, which brings the #RhodesMustFall movement onto the stage. Integrating student discussions and reactions to the play, the paper echoes themes from The Fall, suggesting that strategies which interrupt coloniality, while necessary, are insufficient to transform from formal education’s capitalistic and exploitative foundation. In centring USA and South African writers, the paper highlights that the purpose of education remains a White supremacist vision and that to move from such anti-Black infrastructures, transformation must align directly with ongoing, student-led decolonial approaches. The paper then parallels higher education protests to the context of the 2010 World Cup’s artistic exploitation of South Africa, warning of the power of appropriation, especially on a global stage. The paper concludes with the affirmation that creative, artistic, and Black-centric voices must be fostered and integrated into decolonial strategies to transform the global Whiteness of higher education.
Republic of Sudan Education System Reform: The Causal Effect on Welfare of Women and Children
Authors: Yaylali Ayshe
Published: May 2023

This paper explores a change in education law in the Republic of Sudan, also known as Northern Sudan, to estimate the causal effect of compulsory education on the welfare of women and children. The aim is to investigate the impact of education policies on women and children’s well-being and point out the limitations of these policies in conservative societies. The policy extended the duration of primary education from five years to eight, made it compulsory and reduced the entry age from seven to six. It was proposed in 1995 and implemented in 1998, affecting individuals born from July 1993 onwards. The birth-date Regression Discontinuity Design is implemented as the main methodology to investigate the engagement with education and outcome variables of interest after versus before the cut-off point, by using the UNICEF Multiple Indicator Survey Data. This methodology enables overcoming the endogeneity problem when dealing with observational data. The results suggest that the policy increased completion rates of primary education and participation of women in the labour force but did not increase participation in education. Moreover, there is limited evidence of any welfare effect of the policy. The paper also investigates possible reasons for the policy being ineffective in increasing participation rates. The paper recommends that before taking an essential step towards the goal of universal primary education, the government failed to address existing problems such as the unavailability of schools, long distances to schools, school fees and child labour, which discourage families from sending their daughters to school to increase the effectiveness of the policy. In Muslim societies where informal institutions dominate written rules, compulsory education policies are not likely to yield the expected outcomes, such as equal access for girls to education, unless they are accompanied by huge investment. This paper contributes to the existing literature by highlighting the impact of educational reform policies, discussing issues that limit their effectiveness and making propositions to improve the impact of these policies in such societies.
Preference for Mathematics Textbook Illustrations among Primary School Pupils in Ibadan: Implications for Counselling Psychology
Authors: Kamilu Olanrewaju Dr. Muraina
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this study was to investigate the preference among primary school pupils in Ibadan in terms of mathematics textbook illustrations and its implications for counselling psychology. An ex post facto descriptive research design was used in the study. One hundred and three (103) respondents were selected from public primary school pupils in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. The respondents were measured with self-developed scales and the data obtained was analysed using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMC) and Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Two (2) research questions were raised and answered in the study. The results show that there is a significant relationship between paper quality and preference for mathematics textbook illustrations (r = .712; P<0.05), and there was a significant relationship between colours used in the book and mathematics textbook illustration preferences (r = .841; P<0.05). In view of these findings, the study stresses that educational stakeholders and counsellors should intensify their effort to organise conferences on the implications of these factors (e.g., colour and paper quality, among others) relating to the pupils’ preferences for textbooks, which invariably affect reading comprehension of the pupils.
The mystery of fast radio bursts: another piece to the puzzle that doesn’t quite fit
Authors: Kirsten Franz
Published: May 2023

Fast radio bursts are millisecond-duration, extremely bright flashes of radio light that reach us from other galaxies. We do not know what they are but compelling evidence suggests that they are generated by young stars called magnetars. We found such an object in a globular cluster, an environment where one would absolutely not expect a magnetar. How did this fast radio burst get there?

Earth began with an atmosphere similar to that of Venus. While Venus continues to have a hellish surface, Earth turned into a habitable world within just 100-200 million years. How was that possible? We proposed a scenario using theoretical modeling, where a peculiar type of rock that is currently extinct on Earth could have triggered such a radical change.

Authors: Weisburd David , Telep Cody
Published: May 2023

Following a series of high-profile cases of police harassment and violence, police reform has become a growing national concern in the U.S. We evaluate one reform effort, training police to treat people more fairly in hot spots of crime. We find training significantly improves officer behavior and citizen perceptions of police misbehavior while reducing arrests and crime.
Pluto orbits in elegant arrangement with the giant planets
Authors: Malhotra Renu
Published: May 2023

Pluto has such a peculiar orbit that people have wondered how it exists. In our new work, we found that the orbital architecture of the giant planets lies in a Goldilock's zone that allows for the survival of Pluto and many other similarly peculiar trans-Neptunian objects. A slightly different arrangement of the giant planets would’ve ejected Pluto long ago from the solar system.
Nature favors simplicity and symmetry in biological forms
Authors: Dingle Kamaludin
Published: May 2023

Why do symmetric and regular shapes abound in biology? Using arguments based on algorithmic information theory, we explain why a preference for simple shapes often occurs in biological systems. Our theory is validated via predicting the shape frequencies for naturally occurring protein assemblies, non-coding RNAs, self-assembled tile shapes, and a cell cycle mathematical model.

Published: May 2023

The article analyzes trends in bank lending in Ukraine during the period of martial law, focusing on payments on existing loans and receiving new loans. It examines the share of non-performing loans provided to economic entities and identifies an increase in their share during martial law. The article considers the conditions for introducing "credit holidays" and investigates debt restructuring methods such as deferral of payments, writing off part of the borrower's debt, and reducing the interest rate. The article also identifies vectors of state business support, including business lending during wartime and a grant program in Ukraine. The terms of the "Available loans" 5-7-9% program are examined, as well as the number, volume, and structure of credit agreements made under the program. The article notes that businesses have actively participated in the program, demonstrating a willingness to adapt and develop. State banks have played a significant role in the program, making up more than 80% of the total number of contracts. The article also clarifies the conditions for providing state grant support in Ukraine, investigates types of grants from the Erobota program, and identifies the main problems in the field of banking lending to businesses and their consequences for the Ukrainian economy.

Published: May 2023

In the current stage of international economic relations and the global economy, globalization and transnationalization are key processes present in all areas of the economy, including the banking system. Transnational banks play an important role in international economic relationships by acting as intermediaries on the financial market. Thus, their role is growing in the condition of further development of the globalization process. Transnational banks are spreading all over the world due to the increase in demand for banking operations and the rapid growth of the international capital market, creating branch systems in foreign financial markets by connecting with the banking capital of various states. Although domestic and foreign scientists have covered studies on the impact of the activities of transnational banks in the conditions of globalization of the world economy, some issues related to the effectiveness of the activities of transnational banks and the regulation of TNBs require further consideration. The object of the research is the largest transnational banks in the world, while the subject of the research is the activity of the largest transnational banks in the situation of transnationalization and globalization processes' development. The article aims to examine the concept of a transnational bank as a subject of the international banking system, determine the impact of the presence of a transnational bank on the country's economy in the context of globalization, and analyze the impact of the activities of transnational banks and banks with foreign capital on the banking system of Ukraine. The main research methods used are the statistical method, synthesis method, system-structural method, and generally philosophical method. The research results analyze the positive and negative effects of TNB activities, define the consequences of the influx of foreign capital, and identify situations where it is worth restraining the activities of transnational banks and where, on the other hand, it is worth encouraging the placement of branches of transnational banks in the country.
FINANCIAL REHABILITATION OF THE ENTERPRISE: THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS
Authors: Lashchyk Iryna
Published: May 2023

An article is devoted to theoretical and practical aspects of financial rehabilitation of enterprises. Different approaches of economists to the essence and meaning of the concept of “financial rehabilitation of the enterprise” are analyzed. In the form of a graphic interpretation, the main tasks included in the financial rehabilitation of the enterprise, as well as the algorithm of methods for its implementation, are presented. A number of problems that may arise in the process of financial rehabilitation of enterprises are identified and substantiated. Among them, the most important is the cost of this process, as well as the lack of effective methods and specialists for diagnosing the financial state of the enterprise. Considering the importance of diagnosing the state of the enterprise development in the process of financial rehabilitation, it is recommended to use the economic and mathematical model of O. A. Vinnytska. The model has been tested on “InterTrade” LLC, which is engaged in wholesale and retail trade of auto parts. According to the results of economic and mathematical modeling, a tendency of the general financial condition deterioration of “InterTrade” LLC is revealed, as well as the presence of a “profitability” crisis at the enterprise. Among the advantages inherent in the proposed economic and mathematical model, it is worth highlighting the following: ease of use; availability of data necessary for calculations; compliance with the conditions of domestic enterprises management; the ability not only to assess, but also to determine a specific type of financial condition (crisis, satisfactory, stable, excellent, courageous). The general algorithm for choosing the method of financial rehabilitation of the enterprise has been improved, which consists of three interrelated stages (identification and elimination of external factors of bankruptcy of the enterprise; development and implementation of measures for financial rehabilitation of local enterprises; stabilization of the financial condition of the enterprise). For each separate stage, a goal and specific implementation measures are defined. Practical application of the algorithm will allow to solve the existing problems of enterprises quickly and qualitatively and, thus, to avoid the procedure of bankruptcy or liquidation in the future.
FINANCIAL ASPECTS OF THE FORMATION OF THE MARKET OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES IN UKRAINE ON THE EXAMPLE OF MAJORITY 072 "FINANCE, BANKING AND INSURANCE"
Authors: Hryhorash Olha
Published: May 2023

The article provides an assessment of the impact of indicative costing on the enrollment of leading universities in Ukraine. It was found that the calculation of the cost of educational services, based on the indicative cost price, in 2020 had a slight effect on the prices and on the enrollment of students for contractual education  to prestigious higher education institutions (in Kyiv, Lviv, Kharkiv) due to two reasons. First is the increase in the number of graduates of schools compared to the previous 2019. Second is the restrictions on border leaving caused by quarantine measures. In 2021 the increase in prices became more noticeable and the enrollment of students for contractual education decreased both at the state level and in the leading universities. The reduction in enrollment in 2022 is caused by hostilities and a significant outflow of entrants abroad.
