The theoretical, methodological and practical principles of budget planning are considered in the work. The main economic and political factors that affect the quality of budget planning in a crisis economy are highlighted. The quality and efficiency of budget indicators planning during destructive events, internal and external threats are analyzed. The effectiveness of the state budget policy largely depends on effective budget planning. The principles of medium-term budget planning (Budget Declaration), which were introduced in our country and which aim to determine the general budget indicators for the next three years, should ensure the implementation of medium-term and long-term budget programs. However, the changing macroeconomic situation in the country and global economic challenges force the Budget Declaration to be revised annually. The main document of budget planning is the law on the State Budget of Ukraine for next year, and therefore the accuracy and completeness of its implementation depends on both medium-term budget planning and budget policy. The revenue part of the State Budget of Ukraine has a decisive influence on the formation expenditure’s part of the State Budget of Ukraine and a significant impact on the formation of local budgets. Therefore, the quality and accuracy of revenue planning is a necessary guarantee of socio-economic development of the state in the planned budget period. The execution of the revenue side of the state budget is also greatly influenced by foreign economic factors, which are not always predictable even for developed economies with a long history of budget risk forecasting, and for Ukraine sometimes become catastrophic, because our country does not have reserve funds as countries with developed economies. The purpose of the article is to consider and evaluate the theoretical and methodological and practical provisions of budget planning and develop on this basis practical recommendations for its improvement. In view of this, the paper revealed different approaches to the definition of «budget planning». The article considers the existing approaches to planning the revenue and expenditure side of the state budget. The authors identified factors that affect the quality of budget planning. The paper presents proposals for improving the efficiency of budget planning.

The article defines the basic principles of budget policy formation as a tool for socio-economic development of the country. Budgetary policy has been found to be a powerful tool for ensuring macroeconomic stabilization and further activation of economic development processes. The necessity to study the impact of budgetary policy on the development of the real sector of the economy, to identify the problematic aspects of budgetary regulation of economic growth, to determine the directions of increasing the effectiveness of budgetary policy in the system of socio-economic development of the country is stressed. The main indicators of the budget system in the structure of the gross domestic product of Ukraine are described: revenues of the consolidated budget of Ukraine, expenditures of the consolidated budget of Ukraine, state debt. It is noted that the growth of budget expenditures and gross domestic product of the country is achieved through expansion of aggregate demand in the country, additional financial infusions, which have a positive impact on the pace of socio-economic development. It has been found out that use of the mechanism for financing the priorities of public financial policy at the expense of deficit funds allows to increase money supply in the economy of the country and to create preconditions for its involvement in the real sector of the economy. The features of formation of the mechanism of revenues and expenditures of the budget distribution between different levels of the budget system are generalized and systematized. It is stated that the structure of state budget expenditures is also characterized by a predominance of current expenditures over capital. It has been found that stimulating the development of the real sector of the economy is possible by increasing capital investment, deficit financing included. It is noted that the main source of capital investments in the economy of Ukraine at present is enterprises and organizations own funds. It is proved that the reorientation of government debt policy to financing the development of export and high-tech industries of the national economy is significant. Provision has been made for the feasibility of using public-private partnership mechanisms, which will make it possible to align existing budgetary resources with the volume of state guarantees and increase the efficiency of use of public financial resources in general.

The aim of the article is to present a problem concerning the effects of the public debt and the budget deficit. The public debt is a result of the lack of adequate income earned by the financial sector, what means that it must incur liabilities to be able to carry out its tasks or improper management of the state budget funds - what results in the budget deficit. The size of the state's debt and the public debt has a very large impact on the socio-economic situa-tion of the country as well as on its financial policy. Due to the high indebtedness of the state, the whole economy is disturbed, the state authorities are not able to allocate an adequate amount of the funds to stimulate invest-ments. Such actions slow down the dynamics of economic development, what means that the state authorities most often look for savings. Unfortunately, this usually happens at the expense of the ordinary(?) citizens. Countries that have a high level of the debts tend to lose their credibility internationally. This may result in the fall in the foreign investments and the outflow of the foreign capital.

The object of this research is budget expenditures. The limited financial resources are typical for most countries of the world, therefore, it is important to find and improve the ways of forming and implementing the budgetary policy of the state at every stage of the budgetary process. The budget of any country reflects important economic and social aspects of the life of society as a whole and each person individually. Of course, the budget is a powerful regulator of the main economic processes. One of the most problematic areas is ineffective and inefficient use of budget expenditures. Therefore, this study is aimed at developing practical recommendations for optimizing the process of managing budget expenditures in the context of decentralization to ensure sustainable socio-economic development of the state. To achieve this aim, the author used the problems of managing budget expenditures on the example of Ukraine in the context of the introduction of decentralization processes in the country. The research used the methods of scientific abstraction, systems approach, grouping and classification. To determine the integrated indicator of the efficiency of budget expenditures management at the level of a budgetary institution, society, region, state, a statistical method was used that reflects the correlations of the constituent indicators. To optimize the process of managing budget expenditures, which is considered as a cycle of public policy, two main approaches are proposed. First, a change in the concept of budget expenditures management – a transition from the consumption budget to the development budget, which will allow achieving sustainable economic development in the long term. Secondly, it is proposed to introduce an assessment of the effectiveness of budget expenditure management by calculating an integrated indicator, consisting of all components that reflect the effectiveness of the budgetary policy being implemented. Thanks to the proposed methodology, it is possible to timely adjust the policy for managing budget expenditures in the event of an unsatisfactory value of the integrated indicator of the effectiveness of managing budget expenditures. This provides the advantage that such an adjustment will have a positive effect, since it will be carried out both at the level of a budgetary institution, society, region, and the state as a whole.
