Globalized information has become one of the most important factors in increasing the productivity of an enterprise, and information technologies are a prerequisite for its effective functioning. The purpose of the article is to assess the state and determine the prospects for the development of the use of computer technologies in the accounting and analytical work of Ukrainian enterprises. The main aspects of the introduction and use of modern computer technologies in the accounting and analytical work of enterprises were investigated. The phenomenon of computerization of accounting was highlighted as one of the most important areas of increasing the efficiency of enterprises in modern market conditions, largely due to the processes of economic and digital globalization. A comprehensive assessment of existing accounting software products was carried out, the main functional capabilities of computer programs for conducting accounting and analytical work of enterprises were analyzed and their average cost of implementation was determined. It was determined that the automation of the accounting and analytical process allows the enterprise to save its own resources and to receive benefits. Among these are saving time, making tasks more efficient, and having more accurate analytics. Other than these, however, reducing costs is one of the significant benefits that companies and accounting firms experience as they embrace the latest technologies to optimize processes. Considerable attention is paid to the list of software requirements for automation of accounting, analysis and audit of enterprises. A number of main problems faced by enterprises at the stage of development, use and implementation of computer programs in the accounting and analytical process have been identified. The trends and prospects for the use of software in the accounting and analytical work of Ukrainian enterprises were determined. Current accounting trends tell us one thing: digitization is as ubiquitous in the accounting sector as it is anywhere else, but human roles remain just as relevant. Another development that will define accounting practice in the future is the growing acceptance of remote work in the field.

There is no generally accepted definition of a territory’s mission either in Russia or abroad. So is it worth including a mission in the strategy of socio-economic development of a territory and what definition of the mission is better to choose? To answer these questions, a content analysis of Russian and foreign definitions of the territory's mission has been carried out, from which common units of meaning were identified. It was established that a number of semantic units in definitions of the territory's mission and the mission of organization coincide. However, from the point of view of the mission statement, there are a number of significant differences between a territory and an organization, which makes some definitions of the territory’s mission hardly applicable in practice. Conclusion is made: it is better to define the territory's mission through its role in the external environment, functions and unique features of the territory. The article examines advantages and disadvantages of alternative options: not to develop a mission at all or to develop it in a purely formal way. Practical recommendations on developing a territory mission, examples from Russian and foreign experience are given.

Acceptance Model

The use of outsourcing is expanding rapidly. This chapter empirically tests a model of application development outsourcing acceptance based on the technology acceptance model (TAM). TAM-suggested perceived usefulness and ease of use mediate the effects of other variables on users’ attitudes towards a technology. The model tested in this chapter suggests that perceived usefulness and ease of use of outsourcing mediate the effects of the external environment, prior outsourcing relationships, and risks on decision-makers’ attitude toward application development outsourcing. One hundred and sixty respondents to a survey sent to 3000 IT decision makers provided data to confirm the applicability of TAM and the influences of these external variables. Support for applying TAM in this alternative context was found. Three sub-dimensions of risk, project management, relationship, and employee risk emerged. Project management and employee risks along with prior relationships were found to significantly influence decision maker perceptions about application development outsourcing.
