Authors:   National Academy of Statistics, Accounting and Audit, Lunova Tetiana
Published: June 2022

The aim of the article is to study the theoretical and applied aspects of imperfect competition. For this purpose the comparative analysis of the basic types of market structures is carried out: perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly and monopoly, their characteristic features are considered. The contribution to the development of the theory of imperfect competition by E. Chamberlin, J. Robinson and J. Schumpeter is determined. It is concluded that in modern conditions one of the most effective market structures is oligopoly, but the attractiveness of oligopolistic markets for the implementation of various mechanisms of concerted action, including open collusion (cartels), covert agreements (price leadership, producer conventions), cooperation . The negative features of monopolies are characterized. Among the positive consequences of their activities is the introduction of innovations, which is unrealistic for small firms. It is concluded that the predominance of negative features of monopolization requires active action of the state in the field of competition protection. Examples of the presence in the markets of Ukraine of all types of market structures that have signs of imperfect competition are given. The activity of restaurant establishments is named as an example of monopolistic competition. The oligopolistic markets in Ukraine are the mobile market, the sugar market, the chicken market, and the refined bottled sunflower oil market. The spheres of activity of the subjects of natural monopolies in Ukraine are specified, among them: transportation of natural and oil gas and its distribution; transportation of oil and oil products; ammonia transportation; transmission and distribution of electricity; centralized water supply and sewerage; transportation of thermal energy. The domestic legislation, which is the basis of the state's competition policy, tasks and activities of the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine, is described. Examples of measures taken by this body in 2021 to detect and stop violations of competition laws are given. It is noted that the practice confirms the conclusions of the theory on the possibility of implementing in conditions of imperfect competition of various mechanisms of concerted action that adversely affect competition and harm consumers.

The evolution of theoretical ideas of scientists about the potential of the enterprise is considered, most of which interpret the concept of "enterprise potential" as a set of acquired resources and opportunities for their effective formation and use. The analysis allowed to establish the identification of some authors of the concepts of "enterprise potential" and "enterprise development potential". Given that the development of the enterprise depends on the availability of resource species manifestations of its potential, there is a close connection between the concepts of "potential" and "development" of the enterprise. The peculiarities of the development process are considered, which allowed to systematize the main systemic properties of the development potential of the enterprise, which include adaptability, sustainability, goal-orientation and synergy and revealed their economic content. The interpretation of the content of the enterprise development potential from the point of view of individual authors is studied, which allowed to establish the absence of a single point of view to determine the studied definition. Based on the generalization of the results of the study, the author's definition of the concept of "enterprise development potential" is proposed, which is based on the positions of an integrated approach to the study of enterprise potential. It is proposed to consider economic resources as potential-generating factors from the standpoint of ensuring the development of the enterprise; innovations; external and internal opportunities; competitiveness and investment attractiveness of the enterprise. It is established that the key characteristic of the development potential of the enterprise is its ability to ensure the generation of the target level of net profit in the long run, which indicates its direct connection with the strategic goals of the enterprise.

Therefore, article considers the basic theoretical and methodological principles of functioning of the intelligent system of personnel selection at the enterprise. It is emphasized that the intelligent recruitment system should qualitatively complement the work of personnel officers. The basic levels of enterprise management are distinguished and the main managerial positions are determined at the appropriate level, namely: lower, middle and higher. Two basic categories of personnel management are studied: personnel and personnel. The main types of personnel are characterized: manager, specialist, employee and personnel: production personnel, management personnel and service personnel.

The article examines the processes of decentralization based on the analysis and evaluation of the financial capacity of local budgets in order to systematize the results of previous reforms of financial decentralization. The article deals with the following coefficients of financial capacity, which are grouped by areas: balance, financial capacity, budget efficiency and, based on the calculation of which, ultimately, it becomes possible to calculate the integrated indicator of financial capacity of local budgets. The analysis of indicators for assessing the financial capacity of local budgets in Ukraine was conducted in the dynamics for the period from 1995 to 2019. It is substantiated that the analysis of the financial capacity of local budgets, in order to identify trends that provoked the processes of decentralization and leveling the impact of force majeure, as distorting the results of the study, it is advisable to conduct before the crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. Given the fact that Ukraine has historically developed regions with different levels of infrastructure, natural resources, minerals, population, etc., all this has led to significant regional imbalances in the financing of local budgets. Such features determine the feasibility of analyzing changes and trends in the financial capacity of local budgets in the regional and regional aspects. According to the results of the analysis, it is proved that in Ukraine there is a big problem of differentiation of own and fixed revenues of local budgets, the revenue base of budgets of the Eastern and Southern regions is much higher than in the Western regions of Ukraine. Another significant problem is the reduction of local budget independence by 2015, however, due to changes in the distribution and redistribution of local budget revenues, since 2016 the level of tax capacity and overall financial capacity of regional budgets in Ukraine has significantly improved. Emphasis is placed on the importance of studying the results of reforms to use their potential in the processes of economic reconstruction after military events and crises, reducing social tensions and creating the conditions for restoring and ensuring the well-being of the population.

COVID-19 has affected almost all businesses in Ukraine. In addition, it showed how insecure both business owners and hired employees can be. From March 2020, the Ukrainian authorities repeatedly altered the conditions of quarantine restrictions, trying to find a balance between the effective impact on the COVID-19 incidence and their consequences for business. Consequently, entrepreneurs had to look for new strategies of conduct constantly. The 2021 economic situation is still influenced by the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic against the backdrop of emergent COVID strains, the ongoing vaccination campaign and the growing level of society’s adaptation to new conditions. The Ukrainian authorities are making attempts to help entrepreneurs and revive business. 240.900 persons decided to become sole proprietors during the quarantine, that is 5.000 less than in the same months before the quarantine. The largest number of sole proprietors was in the field of programming (more than 30 thousand), provision of information (6.39 thousand) and other individual services (5.44 thousand). Sole proprietor businesses were actively launched in the field of delivery and health care. Tourism, the restaurant business and the sale of non-food products and the provision of services were most affected. One of the industries most affected by the pandemic is the restaurant business. Ukrainians were much less likely to visit coffeeshops and restaurants in 2020. Consequently, many of them never managed to survive the quarantine year. The results of the study, conducted in the early quarantine period, indicate that 29% of Ukrainian companies suspended their work during the quarantine restrictions, and 6% closed down their business. The analysis of the impact of quarantine measures on particular sectors of activity of the most affected enterprises is carried out. The research specified challenges faced by economic entities due to the introduction of quarantine and the study of ways of business transformation for effective functioning in the pandemic. The mechanisms of providing state support for business and their effectiveness are analyzed.

The basic criteria of accounting information, stages of its transformation and classification features were examined. The basic requirements for accoun-ting information, including: relevance, reliability, completeness, relevance and absence of systematic errors. The regulation of accounting information depending on the level of its application is investigated and four stages of its obtaining are considered. The process of making management decisions based on the principle of "different costs for different purposes" has been studied. The essence of definitions "relevant costs", "irrelevant costs", "actual costs", "alternative costs", "fixed costs" and "variable costs" has been revealed. Based on a study of scholars' work on the relevance approach in management decision-making, two rules of relevance are summarised. The first is that the information presented to management must guarantee that the right management decision is made. The second ensures that the information is presented in an easy-to-understand format that does not contain redundant information. At the same time the essence of the concepts of "relevant information" and "irrelevant information" has been revealed. It has been established that relevant information is useful and appropriate for making management decisions while irrelevant information is past costs and part of future costs which will remain unchanged under different alternatives. Six sequential steps of the management decision making process were researched, which include: understanding the problem; defining criteria; identifying alternatives; developing a decision model; collecting data; and making a decision. It has been established that specialists in management accounting perform the functions of accountants-analysts (internal consultants) that provide internal users with the relevant information. The essence and toolkit of the analysis of the relevant information in the typical economic operations, in particular decision-making on: special order; structure of production (product range); manufacture of semi-finished products of own production or purchase them from outside; management in conditions of limited resources; expansion or reduction of enterprise activity has been researched.

Changes in the business environment of enterprises, reorientation of information needs of managers have led to the active development of strategic management, which involves the development and implementation of enterprise development strategy and requires new approaches to forming an information base for long-term management decisions. Improving the information base requires a radical reorganization of the traditional accounting system and its transformation on the basis of modern information technology into a comprehensive system of strategic management accounting. An important trend in the development of accounting in the management of enterprises, which has been observed in recent years, is their focus on enterprise strategy. This is primarily due to the strengthening of the role of strategic management in the context of global changes in technology and management systems. The need to implement a component of strategic management in the accounting processes of the enterprise due to modern requirements for their effective operation, in particular: achieving competitive advantage, forming a positive image of the enterprise, gaining the trust of creditors, investors and partners and more. Practice shows that companies, in the absence of information of a strategic nature, often can not respond in a timely manner to strategic challenges of the external and internal environment in preparing strategic management decisions, thereby losing opportunities to improve efficiency and optimize costs. Strategic management accounting is a direction of development of management accounting, which has a strategic focus, the purpose of which is the formation of internal and external information necessary for making sound strategic decisions. The role of the accounting system in the strategic development of the enterprise is to provide the necessary accounting and analytical information to the management staff to determine the direction of action within the enterprise development strategy with minimal effort to prepare it and ensure high flexibility of accounting and analytical processes.

Authors:   Zaporizhzhya Institute of Economics and Information Technologies, Vlasenko Lev
Published: June 2022

International tourism is a major driver of the contemporary global economy. Despite the financial losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown, tourism will undoubtedly continue to contribute a significant part of the world’s GDP and will remain a principal industry for numerous nations across the globe. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is the largest tourist market and the primary source of outbound tourism. Despite the devastating effect of the pandemic, the PRC is considered to be instrumental to the recovery of the global tourism industry. It is projected that the countries that will be first to attract Chinese tourists after the removal of travel restrictions will gain a significant boost in the development of their national tourism. The purpose of the article is to study the current state of inbound tourism from China to Ukraine; identify promising areas suitable to attract Chinese tourists; develop recommendations for creating a tourism product that will be tailored specifically to match the preferences of the citizens of the PRC. In the article cooperation between Ukraine and the PRC in the field of international tourism is analyzed; the main factors influencing the flow of Chinese tourists arriving in Ukraine are identified; the connection between the growing number of tourists from China and visa liberalization is established; the preferences and expenses of Chinese tourists were studied. Using the obtained data author proposed ways to attract Chinese tourists to Ukraine in such areas of tourism as ecotourism, recreational tourism, historical tourism, film tourism, and dark tourism. The author concludes that the growth of inbound tourism from the PRC will provide opportunities to the citizens of Ukraine, including the creation of new jobs, strengthening social protection of the population of depressed regions, restoration of infrastructure, and preservation of historical heritage. To exploit these opportunities, the Ukrainian tourism business must develop an innovative approach to attract Chinese tourists. At the same time, a national strategy should be developed, to address problems that cannot be effectively solved by the private sector, specifically, language support.

Published: June 2022

The article examines the differentiation of economic indicators of European Union Member States' economic, scientific, and technological development in the context of the asynchrony of the European Union innovation force’s disposition. It determines the existing connections between the national scientific and technical policies/strategies of the European Union Member States in integration and economic cooperation. As a result, it was found out that today, the economic growth of European Union Member States is no longer determined by the sole factor of their better access to aspects of production. More critical are the cross-border technological chains that determine the dynamics of the centrifugal forces of the integration association, the mechanisms of economic convergence and the "repulsion" of the European Union. It is concluded that in current conditions, the objective feature of the interaction of economic integration and innovation of European Union Member States is that the higher the capacity of the internal market, the greater the amount of profits and the ability to write off costs associated with innovation and inventions in the increase in sales volumes. Companies operating in a more extensive integrated market with a global level of competition have a higher innovation motivation. In modern economic realities, innovation policy in the European Union is based on delegation of differentiated powers to the regions; development, evaluation, implementation and monitoring of regional innovation strategies, which determine the development priorities of each region based on its competitive advantages and compliance of the strengths of the innovation sphere with business needs; prompt response to European market trends, avoiding duplication of effort. Some regional innovation strategies, based on support for cluster initiatives and public-private partnerships, have been developed by the industrialised European Union Member States such as Austria, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France.

Published: June 2022

The article presents the results of the analysis of the evolution of scientific views on the economic content of the category «financial potential». The economic content and significance of the financial potential of the enterprise, the economic relations that arise between economic entities to assess the financial potential of the enterprise are studied. It is determined that the financial potential of the enterprise is important for the theory and practice of economic category. Its ambiguity and complexity in terms of forms of manifestation and semantic interpretation have been established. It is established that the lack of financial capacity leads to a lack of production capacity and the company is able to compensate for their more efficient use through innovation by attracting financial resources, lack of own development of new products or technologies can be compensated by purchasing a license, lack of staff – financial resources strengthening production cooperation. Under conditions of optimal use of financial potential, the company increases its market value and attracts potential investors, creditors, shareholders to invest in the company. The financial potential of the enterprise and its level are closely related to the competitiveness of the enterprise. It is one of the main factors that determines the success of the enterprise in modern market conditions. The process of forming the financial potential of the enterprise is inherently a complex phenomenon, which depends on many factors that are controlled by the entity. In modern research, this economic category does not yet have an unambiguous generally accepted interpretation. The financial potential of the enterprise is closely related to other types of potential (economic, resource, investment, innovation, etc.) and is part of some of them. In the economic literature, it is mainly considered in terms of resource and performance concepts. Further research on the disclosure of the economic nature of financial potential may be aimed at disclosing its specific qualitative characteristics, determining the place and role in the reproduction process and delimiting the scope of competence with related economic categories.

Service Quality Issues in the Triad of Sharing Services: Conceptualization of Issues and Propositions for Solutions
Authors:   The Korean Production And Operations Management Society, Kim Sooyun , Choi Sunmee
Published: June 2022

Sharing-service business models face unique operational issues. The human aspect of the operation particularly differs from traditional service business models, and therefore requires special attention. This aspect comprises “the increased role of customers in service production/delivery process” in sharing-service models. This study primarily aims to identify such operational issues and propose solutions. Based on the “service triad” framework, this study addresses the issues for each of the two sharing-service models: B2C – business to customers, and P2P – people to people. For B2C models, three propositions are put forth based on the theory of the “social dilemma”: (1) implementing social incentives; (2) creating competition among small customer groups; (3) designing effective customer messages. For P2P models, three propositions are put forth based on the “agency theory”: (1) managing information; (2) understanding customers’ attribution to service failure; (3) providing evaluation reports using big data analysis. This study constitutes the first attempt in extending the service triad framework into sharing-service business models toward the goal of providing managerial insights on improving the service quality of sharing-services.
Effect of Buyer’s Support for Subcontractor on Buyer’s Internationalization
Authors:   The Korean Production And Operations Management Society, Cho Hyejin , Shin Choong Ho , Lee Pyoungsoo
Published: June 2022

Intensified global competition compels firms to focus on their core competencies and develop and secure additional competencies through supply chain cooperation. Among the various types of supply chain relations, subcontracting raises concerns about the asymmetric bargaining power between the subcontracting company and the subcontractors. This calls for a discussion on supply chain cooperation in subcontracting relations and its effect on business outcomes. This study analyzed the influence of voluntary support policies of buyer firms for their subcontractors on the level of buyers’ internationalization. Using a sample of 1,016 Korean manufacturing firms, we found that buyer’s management support for subcontractors, high proportion of cash settlement, and pursuit of long-term subcontracting relations raise the level of buyer’s internationalization. This implies that the policies that support subcontractors can create a virtuous cycle for better business outcomes for buyers. Additionally, the assessment of the moderating effect of business group membership of buyers revealed that buyers who are members of business groups experience less positive influence of subcontractor supporting policies on internationalization. Based on these results, academic and practical implications are presented, and future research directions are discussed.
Effect of Shortages of Personal Protective Equipment and Staff on COVID-19 Infection in Nursing Homes: The Moderating Role of Quality
Authors:   The Korean Production And Operations Management Society, Kang Sehwon , Kim Changhee
Published: June 2022

During the COVID-19 pandemic, more than twenty percent of the total COVID-19 fatalities in the United States originated in nursing homes. While previous studies underline the shortages of personal protective equipment and staff as potential causes that led to the COVID-19 infection, the generalizability of their findings is limited because they focus on certain states or cross- sectional data. This study empirically investigates these effects using nationwide data spanning 29 weeks. Using longitudinal nursing home-level data and panel regression analyses with fixed effects, this study shows that both shortages led to rise in cases in nursing home residents and staff in the United States. In addition, nursing home quality intensifies the unfavorable effect of staff shortage on staff infection. The results imply that there is a trade-off between improving nursing home quality and preventing staff infection in nursing homes. This study contributes to the literature on the healthcare industry and provides practical implications for stakeholders on how they can mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in nursing homes. First, it suggests nursing home administrators develop contingency plans for personal protective equipment. Second, the study proposes amending the laws on nursing homes’ minimum staffing levels.
Time Dynamic Analysis of the Relationships Between Corporate Carbon Management, Organizational Capabilities, and Firm Performance: The Resource-based and Natural Resource-based View
Authors:   The Korean Production And Operations Management Society, Lee Su-Yol , Lee Joonkyum
Published: June 2022

Interest in corporate environmental responses to climate change has been growing, although most studies use static approaches, which cannot explain the dynamics from accumulated capabilities. In this study, we examine the antecedents and consequences of corporate environmental responses to climate change by investigating dynamic changes in organizational capability by employing a method that integrates dynamic analysis with the resource-based and natural resource-based views. We conduct a longitudinal analysis of carbon management practices, total quality management, operations management, and market performance of 72 firms in Korea. The results demonstrate that corporate responses to climate change are affected more by accumulated organizational learning capability than initial capability. However, the relationship between increased carbon management practices and firm performance is not confirmed. The findings support the resource-based view that the accumulation of organizational capability and performance affects corporate environmental responses to climate change. By contrast, the findings do not provide sufficient evidence for the natural-resource-based view that the responses in turn drive corporate performance improvement.

The article is aimed at substantiating the determining role of human capital development in the economic recovery of Ukraine in the post-pandemic and post-war periods. One of the comprehensive indicators for assessing the quality of human capital is the Human Development Index.

This is confirmed in the article by a graphical representation of positions of countries in the coordinate system "HDI-GNI per capita", as well as the high value of the coefficient of determination of the constructed correlation model. The mutual nature of the dependence between these indicators is formulated and substantiated. A schematic model of the relationship between human development and the economic growth of the country is proposed. The crucial role in human development of the factor of providing conditions for equal access to quality education for all segments of the population in all corners of the world is described.
