Representation of Forests in Pragya Nepali Aadhunik Katha: A Critical Inquiry
Authors: Poudel Anupama
Published: March 2024

The portrayal of forests in literature has long captivated readers, evoking a spectrum of emotions including fear, mystery, and freedom, among others. This paper delves into the portrayal of forests in literature, particularly focusing on the narratives collected by the three volumes of Nepal Academy in Pragya Nepali Aadhunik Katha. Considering the adverse impact of climate change on forests, this paper argues that literature plays a crucial role in shaping societal perspectives and behaviors to combat climate crises. It argues for the inclusion of environmental themes, particularly forests, in literary works, advocating for their potential to inspire action and cultivate a sense of community engagement. The representation of forests in literature published by organizations such as Nepal Academy, a government body, could prove crucial in instigating behavioral changes among people and promoting sustainable choices that aid in combating the climate crisis. By analyzing the selected stories from the three volumes of Pragya Aadhunik Nepali Katha, this research explores the extent of agency given to forests as integral components of stories. The analysis will be contextualized within Michaels’ idea of “monoculture,” and other relevant discussions surrounding the climate crisis. The findings aim to highlight the importance of incorporating forests into literary narratives, encouraging an understanding of their significance among readers and policymakers alike.
Shakespeare on Screen: A Cinematic Exploration of Laurence Olivier's 1948 Film Adaptation of Hamlet
Authors: Baral Binod Prasad
Published: March 2024

The paper explores the intricate process of translating Shakespeare's Hamlet from the pages to the screens, with a particular focus on the concept of transmediation. Hamlet, known for its linguistic and narrative complexities, presents a unique challenge in adapting its rich text to the visual medium. The study aims to unravel the layers of transmediality inherent in this transition. In doing so, the paper selects Laurence Olivier's 1948 adaptation of Hamlet as its case study. Employing translation theories, among others, by Regina Schober, Susan Basnett, and Linda Seger, the paper involves linguistic scrutiny of Hamlet's text, a comparative analysis of selected scenes between the play and the cinematic adaptation, and an interpretative analysis of fidelity and interpretation in Olivier's 1948 adaptation. The paper purposively selects three screenshots from the film and analyzes them. The analysis reveals the linguistic complexities embedded in Hamlet, shedding light on the challenges posed during the translation from page to screen. Additionally, the study evaluates the impact of transmediality and interpretation in cinematic adaptation, offering insights into how the original text's essence is preserved or transformed. The study explores the impact of directorial decisions on character portrayals, visual storytelling techniques, and the preservation of Shakespearean essence, offering insights into the lasting influence of Olivier's Hamlet on the field of cinematic interpretations.
Ideological Polarization through Selective Exposure: Social Media Perspectives
Authors: Al Mohaimen Abdullah , Sultana Sayma , Islam Khandaker D.
Published: March 2024

This study seeks to outline the problems of polarization caused by social media and its current scenarios. It involves the elaboration of some important questions, but the answers are still open and cannot be overlooked. The paper discussed how social media connects people freely and how everything is done with one click. In this regard, there are many polarization effects for like-mindedness choices that have been discussed here from a social-psychological point of view. This like-minded choice can lead to an idealistic polarization, and the extremities can grow between the two polarities of disgust and hatred. Selective exposure and ideological polarization have been gradually gaining academic attention recently. This study will show that most of the research on polarization has been focused on political polarization while ideological polarization being a much broader aspect, has not been paid an equal amount of attention. Several risky indicators that pose a danger to democratic societies have been also discussed in this paper as the consequence of ideological polarization. From a socio-psychological perspective, the topic of polarization is nothing new but the issue of polarization through selective exposure in social media is on the rise. Social scientists have always serious room to explore this arena.
Using Chemical Fertilizer to Major Cereal Crops in Baijnath Tole, Bhimdutta Municipality-19, Kanchanpur
Authors: Thakuri Bir Bahadur Singh
Published: March 2024

The study, conducted in Baijnath tole, Bhimdatta municipality-19, Kanchanpur, Nepal, focuses on evaluating the impact of a chemical fertilizer pattern on major cereal crops, specifically paddy and wheat. Employing an empirical research with census survey method, the research investigates macronutrients, fertilizer sources, application rates, nutrient supply, and crop productivity. Data collected from 65 households using a semi structured questionnaire. By combining qualitative and quantitative data sources, it becomes evident that there has been a steady annual growth rate of around 12% in the utilization of chemical fertilizers for both paddy and wheat crops since the year 2075. This rise correlates with increased crop production, showing an average annual growth of 6% in paddy yields and a reversal of a 1% initial decrease in wheat, leading to a subsequent 4% annual increase over four years.

This research study contributes by providing insights into specific agronomic techniques connected to the use of chemical fertilizers on important grain crops in the area. If the research tackles unique difficulties or opportunities in the study area, it could provide useful information to local farmers and others. This could include soil types, climate conditions, and socioeconomic aspects. The study investigates the economic elements of chemical fertilizer use, taking into account issues such as input costs, farmer return on investment, and the overall economic impact on Nepalese agriculture. This study examines the impacts of chemical fertilizer use on soil health and the environment, taking into account factors such as soil fertility, nutrient runoff, and any environmental sustainability concerns. The study presents findings on how the use of chemical fertilizers affects the productivity of main cereal crops, as well as data on yield improvements, crop quality, and potential obstacles or constraints.
INFLUENCE OF SUBCRITICAL WATER PRETREATMENT TEMPERATURE ON PINEAPPLE WASTE BIOGAS EFFICIENCY: EXPERIMENTAL AND KINETIC STUDY
Authors: Aili Hamzah Adila Fazliyana , Hamzah Muhammad Hazwan , Che Man Hasfalina , Jamali Nur Syakina , Siajam Shamsul Izhar
Published: March 2024

Anaerobic digestion of pineapple waste appears to be an effective method for non-renewable energy substitution through biogas production. The potential power generation from the exploitation of pineapple waste as fuel is estimated to be roughly 20.8 MW. Nevertheless, the intricate composition of pineapple waste, characterized by the complex arrangement of its structure, poses a significant challenge in attaining a substantial amount of biogas production. This study pretreated pineapple waste with subcritical water to increase biogas production. Two temperature settings (120⁰C and 200⁰C) were used for pretreatment. Combined pre-treatment at low temperatures and short time (120⁰C, 5 minutes, 10 water to solid ratio) resulted in 31.6% higher biogas production than untreated. However, pretreatment at high temperatures and longer reaction time (200⁰C,25 min) reduced the biogas production by 9% as compared to untreated. Using the Modified Gompertz kinetic model, pretreatment improved the lag phase and increased biogas production to 14.41 mL/day. The lignocellulosic composition of pre-treated pineapple waste decreased, while process parameters such as total ammonia nitrogen removal and pH improved after the pretreatment. Subcritical water pretreatment, particularly when conducted at high temperatures, did not yield any enhancements in the anaerobic digestion of pineapple waste. As a result, it is not advisable to employ this method for these purposes.

Authors: G. R. M. Gamlath  , Y. Nanthagopan  , L. Gangatharan  , Nigel L.Williams
Published: March 2024

The use of Project Governance Practices (PGPs) is increasingly taking a substantial stage in developing economies, particularly in a newly industrializing nation like Sri Lanka where public sector development projects have been implemented to expedite the nation's growth and prosperity. As it is essential to lay a transparent and tangible foundation for an effective public sector that can be sustained, the paper focuses on the significance of PGPs in enhancing the performance of the Sri Lankan public sector development initiatives. Structuring, normalizing, facilitating, and post-conflict-sensitive variables were used to measure the PGPs, whereas financial and non-financial performance measures were employed to evaluate the project performance. The researcher conducted direct observations and administered a comprehensive Likert-scaled questionnaire to 518 project administrators involved in various Sri Lankan public sector development projects, specifically focusing on projects related to irrigation, roads and highways, water and sanitation, and other infrastructure developmental projects. The data was analyzed using the structural equation modeling through the AMOS software. The results showed that PGPs created a considerable improvement in project performance, which increased support for expanding economic prosperity through balanced development strategies and sustainability-based policy formation.

Human Resource Management Practices and Organizational Performance in Public Sector Organizations: with reference to Development Officers in the Colombo District in Sri Lanka
Authors: R. Lalitha S. Fernando  , E.A.I. Kularathna  , H. O. C. Gunasekara
Published: March 2024

Human resources management concerns how people are employed, utilized, and maintained effectively and efficiently in achieving organizational objectives.   The performance of any organization largely depends on its human resources. Among the human resources management practices, recruitment, and selection of the right pool of employees, proper training and development, performance appraisal, and compensation directly affect achieving organizational objectives. However, these Human Resource (HR) practices in the public sector, especially in relation to the position of Development Officers (DOs) of Sri Lanka have not been practiced in an effective manner. Recruitment of Graduates as Development Officers has been a major reason for increasing the growth of public service in the country. Since the 1990s, the government of Sri Lanka has practiced bulk recruitment of graduates without having a clear and formal duty list, service minutes, recruitment procedures, training and development programs, promotion policy, and salary scale. The main purpose of this study is to discuss the existing Human Resource Management (HRM) practices, identify strengths and weaknesses of the existing HRM practices, and examine how these weaknesses affect the performance of the public sector organizations in relation to Development Officers in the public sector in Sri Lanka. The study used a qualitative research method with the inductive approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews from all 13 Divisional Secretaries in the Colombo District and the data were analyzed narratively. The study revealed that the existing recruiting, training, and performance appraisal practices negatively affect the performance of the public sector due to some weaknesses in these practices.  Finally, this study proposes policy recommendations for improving the effectiveness of these practices for enhancing the public sector performance in Sri Lanka.

Los medios de comunicación tienen la posibilidad de impulsar, ralentizar u obstaculizar el crecimiento y la consolidación del futbol. En México, la viabilidad de la Liga MX Femenil está en gran medida condicionada a la cobertura y visibilidad que le otorguen los medios de comunicación. Analizamos la cobertura periodística a partir de tres periódicos de circulación nacional ―Reforma, La Jornada y Gaceta UNAM― durante seis torneos cortos (2017-2022), incluyendo los dos equipos profesionales de la primera división (los pumas y “las pumas”): varonil y femenil del futbol mexicano de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). Los hallazgos sugieren la existencia de disparidades significativas, tanto en la cobertura general ―hombres versus mujeres― como en la específica ―por periódico y por rival―. Los resultados obtenidos permiten concluir que no existe un ejercicio periodístico neutral ni objetivo. Se elaboran recomendaciones para cerrar las brechas cuantitativas y cualitativas que permitan consolidar y con ello dar viabilidad a ambas ligas profesionales.

Published: March 2024

OBJECTIVE

Dural arteriovenous fistulas are rare vascular malformations that affect the brain and spinal cord. Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (sdAVFs) are the most frequently encountered vascular malformation affecting the spinal cord. The object of this study was to evaluate the impact of treatment delays on the long-term neurological outcomes of either open surgical or interventional treatment of sdAVFs.

METHODS

In this retrospective, population-based cohort study, the authors examined consecutive patients with diagnosed sdAVFs at a tertiary care center between 2005 and 2020. Patients were assessed using the Aminoff-Logue disability scale (ALS) at various time points including symptom onset, primary care visit, first specialist outpatient visit, as well as both short and long-term follow-ups. The postoperative long-term ALS gait and bladder grades constituted the primary outcomes of the study.

RESULTS

Among the 34 patients included in the study, the median age was 65 years, and there was a male predominance (71%). Most lesions were in the lumbar region (47%). Significant worsening in ALS gait and bladder grades was observed preoperatively, followed by postoperative improvements (p < 0.05). There was no difference in outcomes between surgical and endovascular treatments. Older age (OR 1.10, 95% CI 1.03–1.17, p = 0.007), worse preoperative ALS gait grades (OR 5.12, 95% CI 2.18–12.4, p < 0.001), and longer time from first specialist outpatient visit to first treatment (OR 1.00, 95% CI 1.00–1.01, p = 0.040) were independently associated with worse long-term gait outcomes. Only the preoperative ALS bladder score was a predictor of worse long-term bladder function (OR 92.7, 95% CI 28.0–306.7, p < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

Both surgical and endovascular treatments for sdAVFs led to significant neurological improvements. However, treatment delays were associated with less favorable long-term outcomes. Prompt diagnosis and early intervention prior to symptom progression may enhance recovery and help to preserve neurological function.
Microsurgical versus endovascular treatment of ethmoidal dural arteriovenous fistulas: systematic review and meta-analysis with a single-center case series
Authors: Berke Chandler N. , Naik Anant , Majmundar Neil , Munier Sean , Rahman Raphia , Sattar Ahsan , Khandelwal Priyank , Liu James K.
Published: March 2024

OBJECTIVE

Ethmoidal dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are often associated with cortical venous drainage (CVD) and a higher incidence of hemorrhage compared with DAVFs in other locations. They may be treated with open surgical disconnection or with endovascular treatment (EVT). In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the authors compare the outcomes of ethmoidal DAVFs treated with open microsurgery versus EVT and report four additional cases of ethmoidal DAVFs treated with open microsurgery in their institution.

METHODS

A literature search of the PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted between December 2021 and May 2022 to identify relevant articles published between 1990 and 2021 using the PRISMA guidelines. References were reviewed and screened by two authors independently, and disagreements were resolved through consensus. Exclusion criteria included non–English-language studies, those with an incorrect study design, those reporting DAVFs in a nonethmoidal location, and studies whose outcomes were not stratified based on DAVF location. Inclusion criteria were any studies reporting on ethmoidal DAVFs treated by either microsurgery or EVT. A risk of bias assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The authors performed a pooled proportional meta-analysis to compare patient outcomes.

RESULTS

Twenty studies were included for analysis. Of 224 patients, 142 were treated with surgery, while 103 were treated with EVT. Seventy percent (148/210) of the patients were symptomatic at presentation, with hemorrhage being the most common presentation (48%). CVD was present in 98% of patients and venous ectasia in 61%. The rates of complete DAVF obliteration with surgery and EVT were 89% and 70%, respectively (95% CI −30% to −10%, p < 0.03). Twenty percent (21/103) of endovascularly treated fistulas required subsequent surgery. Procedure-related complications occurred in 10% of the surgical cases, compared with 13% of the EVT cases. The authors’ case series included 4 patients with ethmoidal DAVFs treated surgically with complete obliteration, without any postoperative complications.

CONCLUSIONS

The complete obliteration rates of ethmoidal DAVF appear to be higher and more definitive with microsurgical intervention than with EVT. While complication rates between the two procedures seem similar, patients treated with EVT may require further interventions for definitive treatment. The limitations of this study include its retrospective nature, the quality of studies included, and the continued evolving technologies of EVT. Future studies should focus on the association between venous drainage pattern and the proclivity toward venous ectasia or rate of hemorrhage at presentation.
EFFECT OF COMPOSITE DRUG ETHYLTHIOSULPHONATE WITH SURFACTANT
RAMNOLIPID BIOCOMPLEX ON SH-GROUP CONTENT IN DAPHNIA MAGNA
Authors: Khuda L. , Andrushchak M. , Lubenets V. , Karpenko O. , Pokynbroda T. , Semeniuk I. , Khudyi O.
Published: March 2024

One of the main obstacles to the use of thiosulfonates in aquaculture is their insolubility in water. This problem is eliminated by
using a composition based on ethylthiosulfanilate (ETS) and surface-active rhamnolipid biocomplex (RBC) of bacteria of the genus
Pseudomonas, which provides increased bioavailability of ethylthiosulfanilate and activation of biocidal properties of the drug.
However, this may increase the toxic effects of the created composition. Given the possibility of using Daphnia magna Straus in the
procedure of bioencapsulation as a vector organism for the delivery of a composite drug, a study of the effect of ETS: RBC in nontoxic
concentrations (2.5·10-3 mg / ml and 5·10-3 mg / ml (by ETS) on the content of protein and non-protein thiols in Daphnia
magna, as well as the activity of enzymes inhibited by a natural analogue of thiosulfonates - allicin. A decrease in the content of
protein and non-protein thiols in the tissues of Daphnia magna was found under the action of both studied concentrations of the
drug. A significant reduction in non-protein SH groups compared to protein-bound ones may indicate the active and efficient
involvement of glutathione ethylthiosulfanilate, which is the predominant non-protein thiol in the cell and provides protection
against oxidation of functional groups of proteins and enzymes. The established inhibition of superoxide dismutase activity may be
due to S-thioallylation of ethylthiosulfanilate SH-containing amino acids in the structure of the enzyme. No significant changes in
glutathione-S-transferase activity under the action of the study drug were observed. Only when using a higher concentration of the
composite drug ETS: RBC begins to show a tendency to decrease activity, most likely due to a decrease in the content of reduced
glutathione under these conditions. Given the survival rates of Daphnia magna under the conditions of using the composite drug
ETS: RBC at concentrations of 2.·10-3 mg / ml and 5·10-3 mg / ml, it is likely that its effect focuses on reactions involving sulfhydryl
groups and does not cause significant changes in the detoxification system of the cell.

Abstract: The quest to reduce fuel consumption and environmental pollution in the transportation sector has heightened the demand for developing lightweight alloys with enhanced mechanical properties. Accordingly, this study focused on optimizing the mechanical properties of a lightweight Ti65(AlCrNbV)28Zr7 medium entropy alloy (MEA) by strategically adjusting its Al, Cr, Nb, and V elemental contents. Hardness testing indicated a strengthening ability hierarchy of Cr > Al > V > Nb. Furthermore, tensile tests revealed that although a high Cr content significantly enhances strength, it also reduces the ductility of an MEA. Drawing on mechanical insights gained from a previously studied Ti60Al10Cr10Nb10V10 MEA and the present findings, a novel Ti60Al10Cr4Nb10V9Zr7 (Ti60Zr7) MEA was developed. This new alloy retains a single body-centered cubic structure and demonstrated exceptional mechanical performance in tensile testing, with a yield strength of 1066 MPa and 22% ductility. The Ti60Zr7 MEA underwent a series of thermomechanical treatments, including 50% hot rolling, 80% cold rolling, and rapid annealing up to 800 °C at a rate of 25 °C/s. After thermal processing, the Ti60Zr7 MEA not only preserved its single body-centered cubic structure but also achieved a remarkable combination of yield strength (>1200 MPa) and ductility (measured as >15% elongation). These advancements underscore the alloy’s considerable potential for application in sports equipment and transportation vehicles.

Retinal and Cortical Visual Processing Dysfunction in a Case of Mild Cognitive Impairment with Lewy Bodies: A Case Report
Authors: Perini Giulia , Cotta Ramusino Matteo , Conca Francesca , Cosentino Giuseppe , Farina Lisa Maria , Costa Alfredo , Farina Elisabetta
Published: March 2024

The prodromal stage of Lewy body dementia includes a mild cognitive impairment with visual processing and/or attention-executive deficits. A clinical presentation with progressive visual loss is indeed seldom reported and can be misleading with a posterior cortical atrophy disease. While the neurodegeneration at the occipital cortex can only partially explain the visual disturbances of Lewy body dementia, more recently a retinal dysfunction has been suggested by preliminary optical coherence tomography and autoptic findings. Herein, we present a case of a mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies, who presented initially with visual disturbances and signs of both retinal and cortical visual processing dysfunction. A complete neuropsychological, neurophysiological and brain imaging assessment highlighted a prominent ventral visual pathway involvement. This report provides first that the prodromal stage of Lewy body dementia can manifest as a primarily progressive visual loss, second that the involvement of visual pathway, particularly the ventral stream, can be detectable from the retinal to the cortical level.

Excessive deposition of heavy metals into the environment due to anthropogenic activities necessitates an eco-friendly clean-up strategy. Among microorganisms, limited studies have been made on the mycoremediation potential of microfungi. This paper evaluated three landfill microfungal isolates of Aspergillus species for tolerance and uptake to Cd and Mn. Culture media optimization was also performed for the evaluation of the tolerance index and heavy metal analysis of soil samples from the landfill site. Among the nine heavy metals analyzed, Mn and Fe were detected in relatively high amounts, while Cd, Ni, and Cu were detected in a moderate range. Luxuriant mycelial growth of A. oryzae (MK120548.1) and A. flavus (MH864264.1) was observed in potato dextrose agar while A. terreus (MH047280.1) grew best in potato sucrose agar. In terms of tolerance index, A. oryzae (MK120548.1) and A. flavus (MH864264.1) demonstrated high tolerance to Cd up to 10 mg/kg. A. oryzae (MK120548.1) showed high tolerance to Mn up to 1,000 mg/kg while A. flavus (MH864264.1) exhibited a very high 10,000 mg/kg tolerance. In terms of metal uptake, A. oryzae (MK120548.1) showed the highest metal uptake of up to 654 mg/kg of Cd, while A. terreus (MH047280.1) exhibited the highest metal uptake of 997 mg/kg ofMn. With these findings, A. oryzae (MK120548.1), A. flavus (MH864264.1), and A. terreus (MH047280.1) have considerable mycoremediation potential. Bioremediation studies in conjunction with plants can be explored to further assess the potential of these Aspergillus species.

Mangunharjo Village is included in one of the areas on the west coast of the city of Semarang which has various types of mangrove trees. Lack of public knowledge about the benefits of mangrove fruit, so that ripe mangrove fruit on the tree is left alone until the fruit falls into the water. From this it is necessary to have the utilization of pedada fruit. This study aims to determine the factors that can cause bacada fruit in the Mangunharjo area to not grow back after land leveling using heavy equipment. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. Data collection was carried out by means of literature studies and interviews. The results of the research show that in the Mangunharjo area there have been no pedada fruits since the 1980s. This was due to land clearing for building buildings. The head of the mangrove processing group has also never produced mangrove fruit syrup because if you want to make mangrove fruit syrup you have to take broiler fruit from the Demak area. The head of the mangrove group had only had training in making mangrove syrup but did not produce it. There are several factors that cause the soil resulting from land leveling to be infertile or unable to be planted with plants, one of which is due to soil acidity. In addition, the government's attention to mangrove processing is also lacking.Keywords: Mangrove Fruit, Soil Damage, Syrup, Marketing Strategy

Quantum Computing: Computing of the Future Made Reality
Authors: Mathis Janelle , Payne Bryson
Published: March 2024

Quantum computing is an emerging new area focused on technology consisting of quantum theory aspects such as electrons, sub-atomic particles, and other materials engineered using quantum mechanics. Through quantum mechanics, these computers can solve problems that classical computers deem too complex. Today the closest computing technology compared to quantum computers are supercomputers, but similarly to classical computers, supercomputers also have faults. With supercomputers, when a problem is deemed too complex, it is due to the classical machinery components within the computer, thus causing a halt in solving the task or problem. In contrast, these problems could be solved with a quantum computer due to the advancements in engineered materials based on quantum mechanics. Apart from the hardware that enables a quantum computer to function more intelligently, the software developed for these computers can also show tremendous improvements in certain aspects, such as cryptography. This research examines quantum computing from its origins and details how the computer runs, its faults and limitations, ways to protect from quantum computing attacks, and demonstrates what programming a quantum computer would entail.

Authors: Lin Jiesen , Liu Dapeng , Carter Lemuria
Published: March 2024

In the wake of the global health crisis, mobile contact tracing applications have emerged as important tools in managing disease spread. However, their effectiveness heavily relies on mass adoption, significantly influenced by the public's information privacy concerns. To date, systematic examination of how these privacy concerns relate to the innovation adopter categories in mobile contact tracing remains sparse. Furthermore, the influence of individual techno-characteristics on these concerns is to be explored. This research seeks to fill these gaps. Drawing on the diffusion of innovation theory, we examine the impact of the key techno-characteristics—adopter category, propensity for identification misrepresentation, and exposure to media reports of privacy invasion incidents - on information privacy concerns in the diffusion of mobile contact tracing applications. We aim to investigate how these factors in culmination shape privacy concerns. Our findings offer insights to devise more effective strategies for managing privacy concerns. This research expands the current academic discourse around technology adoption and privacy and has practical implications for the design and rollout of mobile contact tracing applications.

Published: March 2024

The article analyzes methodical approaches to assessing the efficiency of sales activities of enterprises. It has been established that there are a large number of different methodological approaches to the assessment of sales activity, but they are not complete and comprehensive. Also, there is no unified approach to the comprehensive assessment of the sales activity of enterprises. It was determined that the assessment of the effectiveness of sales activities should be considered comprehensively, starting with the provision of the necessary production (non-current, working and human capital) and financial (equity and loan capital) resources, compliance with financial discipline, achieving expanded reproduction, increasing business profitability, which in total directly affects on the effectiveness of sales activities. It was determined that the assessment of the effectiveness of sales activities should be considered comprehensively, starting with the provision of the necessary production (non-current, working and human capital) and financial (equity and loan capital) resources, compliance with financial discipline, achieving expanded reproduction, increasing business profitability, which in total directly affects on the effectiveness of sales activities. A methodical approach to assessing the effectiveness of sales activity is proposed, which will take into account not only the current state of sales activity, but also help identify reserves that can be used to improve the effectiveness of the company's sales activity. The described methodical approach includes five groups of indicators, based on the assessment of efficiency in different areas: assessment of resource provision; assessment of financial condition and solvency; assessments of the efficiency of resource use; determination of business profitability; evaluation of sales activity. The developed methodological approach makes it possible to comprehensively assess the effectiveness of sales activity, taking into account not only the current state of sales activity, but also to identify reserves that can be used to improve the effectiveness of the company's sales activity.
