The article deals with the actual issues of the financial control from the point of view not only as a type of activity, management function or institution of the financial law, but also as a means of knowledge of the financial activity. The result of such cognition is an establishment of the actual state of affairs in the sphere of the financial activity by comparing them (comparisons) and assessing their compliance with the normative model of financial activity, in terms of legality and efficiency, detecting deviations from this model (violations of the financial legislation) and other negative trends, and as well as developing and taking measures to bring actual financial activity to its normative model. The global experience of financial control organization confirms the need to reorganize the existing system of state financial control in Ukraine and determines the need to create an organizational structure for establishing a system of external and internal financial control at the appropriate methodological and regulatory basis. One of the prerequisites for improvement of financial legislation is the cognition not only the results of the financial activity, but also the conditions, factors and circumstances the presence of which contributes to a violation of financial legislation, the causes of these violations, etc. The results of control measures, despite the selectivity of controlled entities and the limited range of these entities, are part of that initial empirical material, which requires cognition, which can result in a generalized conclusion on the state of financial activity as a whole. The article proposes the author's vision of the directions of further improvement of financial legislation of Ukraine and the influence on the development of this branch of legislation of the results of financial control.

Abstract This article presents considerations on the assessment of marking LED sources with the power of an equivalent light bulb. This problem was studied both on the basis of calculations and measurements performed. 17 LEDs of different powers and luminous fluxes were tested. Calculations assessing conformity with the declared power showed that an important disadvantage for most of the LED sources results from the method of marking them with the power of an equivalent light bulb from the point of view of the luminous flux emitted. Manufacturers do not do this correctly, misleading the potential user. Meanwhile, measurements performed in different ambient temperatures indicated that for only 4 from among the 13 LED sources studied the given value of the power of an equivalent light bulb may be recognized as in accordance with the actual state of affairs and still with a reservation that specified ambient temperature shall be required. In other cases the values of power quoted are either understated or overstated.

The author shows that even from the point of view of modern researchers who openly and undoubtedly express their respect for the existing system of teaching the Russian language and strive to improve its effectiveness by introducing new approaches and tools, the conclusion is made about the need to "eliminate the entire concept of knowledge about the Russian language" according to which the Russian language is taught in modern conditions. One cannot but agree with this conclusion, based on the actual state of affairs, and, naturally, the entire set of necessary decisions reflected in the infinitely broad term "requirements of life". However, the article defends the position that teaching the Russian language should not only go into teaching the rules, but should be based on the entire complex of speech activity and thinking of the student.

The article examines the impact of the risk-oriented approach on the transformation processes of methodological support of control and expert-analytical measures implemented in relation to individual elements of the implemented state programs, which determines the importance of state programs as an object of state audit and control and the need to improve the effectiveness of control processes. It is proposed to use a risk-based approach when planning control measures by subjects of external state financial control in relation to individual subprograms and the main activities of implemented state programs. The paper reveals the essence of the risk-based approach and suggests the use of a roadmap for its implementation as an important element of the methodological tools. The application of a risk-based approach to the structural components of state programs is considered from the point of view of the concentration of control procedures on particularly significant and high-risk elements.

It has been established that in order to ensure the correct and high-quality organization of internal audit, it is advisable to provide for the establishment of the internal audit service as a separate subdivision, providing the necessary number of accountants and auditors in the staff. The methodology of the internal audit of payroll has been improved in order to provide a detailed explanation of the content of the audit. The main objects of the internal audit of employee benefit calculations have been singled out. The sequence of the employee benefit calculations audit was determined. The internal auditor's working documents were formed: A statement of selective verification of vacation pay accrual and a Statement of violations revealed during the audit of employee benefit calculations. Using new changes and suggestions will allow the company’s internal audit service to cover all aspects of accounting and reporting on employee benefits. Preparation results of the internal audit of payments to employees in the form of proposed working documents will ensure that the results of the audit correspond to the actual state of Affairs at the enterprise and ensure the availability of information during the next audit.

Since its founding in 1963, the Organization of African Unity (OAU) has placed special emphasis on the preservation of the territorial integrity of African states. It has actively contributed to the development of relevant rules of international law, such as that of uti possidetis. Its opposition to the fragmentation of states has been absolute. However, the small island state of Comoros has challenged this state of affairs. The seemingly successful secession of ‘Anjouan’ has threatened the cherished principles of the OAU. This article critically analyzes the relationship between the principles at the heart of the dispute, those of self-determination and uti possidetis, and concludes that there is no legal proscription on the secession of ‘Anjouan’.
