In this PKM program, our partner is residents in Rungkut Barata, Surabaya, East Java Province. This community has generated the production of citronella oil. However, the product only in the form of citronella oil in a simple package. Citronella oil from the refining process is one of the jobs for the people in Rungkut Barata where to improve welfare, a product diversification process is necessary. Seaweed is forms of algae that grow in the sea and has the biological activity for health. Carrageenan is the product result of seaweed extraction that have several function as thickener, emulsifier, suspension, and stabilizer. The pharmaceutical industry uses carrageenan for the manufacture of drugs, syrups, tablets, toothpaste, and shampoo. The cosmetics industry uses it as a gelling agent or binding agent. Based on interviews and observations in the field, there are 2 main focuses of the problems currently faced by partners, namely: 1) lack of knowledge about non-consumption seaweed and 2) product diversification of seaweed and citronella oil which have an added value. Some of the things planned by the PKM team are innovating citronella oil to be aromatic soap as well as providing training and mentoring for financial analysis, soap packaging and marketing. The purpose of this activity is to transfer knowledge of making soap, develop the creativity of the partner, increase the soap production and improve the welfare of the partner. This activity was realized with an approach in the form of making a sustainable cooperation program until the end of PKM, creating a family atmosphere between the two and understanding that the problems experienced were a shared problem so that they could be solved together according to the level of responsibility to achieve the expected benefits, namely increased yields, production and productivity and competitiveness, independence and welfare of the community.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyusun strategi yang tepat dalam peningkatan nilai tambah andaliman (Zantoxylum Acanthopodium) di Kabupaten Toba Samosir yang mempengaruhi ekonomi pemangku kepentingan. Langkah-langkah yang dilakukan ialah: i) pengumpulan informasi produksi disentra penghasil andaliman yaitu Kecamatan Habinsaran, Bor-bor, Nassau, Lumban Julu, Ajibata, dan Silaen, ii) identifikasi/analisis model rantai pasok iii) menganalisis peran/pengaruh serta pemetaan para pemangku kepentingan iv) analisis nilai tambah setiap mata rantai pada rantai pasokan. Terdapat dua jenis metode yang diaplikasikan dan termasuk dalam deskriptif-eksploratif. Pertama, metode kualitatif mencakup studi literatur dalam memperoleh data/acuan pengerjaan, observasi, wawancara dengan pelaku rantai nilai dan pemerintahan. Kedua, metode kuantitatif dengan perhitungan Hayami untuk mengetahui nilai tambah andaliman. Fakta menunjukkan luas lahan produktif pertanian andaliman ± 62,9 Ha dengan kapasitas produksi sebesar ± 417,2 ton/tahun. Terdapat dua model rantai pasokan yaitu andaliman segar dan olahannya. Kemudian pemetaan rantai nilai dilakukan untuk mengetahui nilai R/C dari margin setiap node rantai pasokan. Saat harga andaliman netral hingga tinggi rentang nilai R/C antara 1,08 hingga 1,73 yang menandakan setiap aktor akan untung. Namun apabila harga andaliman rendah nilai R/C antara 0,85 hingga 1,9 dengan keadaan tersebut ada aktor yang sangat dirugikan atau diuntungkan. Hasil terkait peta rantai nilai mengungkapkan rekayasa nilai andaliman belum optimal terbukti dari produk yang dihasilkan rantai pasokan masih jauh dibawah nilai potensial yang mungkin. Analisis SWOT memberi informasi peluang dan tantangan mengembangkan rantai pasok demi meningkatkan nilai produk andaliman. Akhir penelitian ini ialah rekomendasi strategi peningkatan nilai tambah diantaranya, menambah diversifikasi produk, membuat sentra khusus pengolahan andaliman, dll.   This study aims to develop appropriate strategies for increasing the added value of andaliman (Zantoxylum Acanthopodium) in Toba Samosir Regency which affects the economy of stakeholders. The steps taken are: i) gathering information on production of andaliman producing centers namely Habinsaran, Bor-bor, Nassau, Lumban Julu, Ajibata, and Silaen Districts, ii) identification / analysis of supply chain models iii) analyzing the role / influence and mapping of the parties stakeholder iv) value added analysis of each link in the supply chain. There are two types of methods applied and included in the descriptive-exploratory method. First, the qualitative method includes the study of literature in obtaining work data / references, observations, interviews with value chain actors and government. Second, the quantitative method with Hayami's calculation to find out the added value of andaliman. Facts show that the area of productive land of andaliman is ± 62.9 hectares with a production capacity of ± 417.2 tons / year. There are two supply chain models, namely fresh and processed andaliman. Then the value chain mapping is done to find out the R / C value from the margins of each supply chain node. When the reliable price is neutral to high, the R / C value range is between 1.08 and 1.73, which indicates that each actor will profit. However, if the reliable price is low, the R / C value is between 0.85 to 1.9 with this condition, there are actors who are greatly disadvantaged or disadvantaged. The results related to the value chain map revealed that optimal value engineering has not been proven to be optimal from the products produced by the supply chain are far below the potential potential value. SWOT analysis provides information on opportunities and challenges of developing supply chains to increase the value of andaliman products. The end of this research is a recommendation to increase added value strategies, including increasing product diversification, creating special centers for andaliman processing, etc.

Introduction. The current state of financial and economic government institutions negatively affects  Ukrainian budget execution, and the general trend of deterioration in the standard of living of the people, in general leads to low level of functioning of the enterprise and  their competitiveness, especially in such industry as trade. Aims and tasks. In the conditions of an unstable political and economic situation in commodity market and services to overcome disproportions between operating profit  of some commodity groups of trade enterprise and its added value which indicates depreciation of the capital  invested by owners not only doesn't provide compensation of investments, but also leads to losses because of inflationary processes therefore there is a need for the mutual integration of approaches of management of expenses for assessment. Results. The practical value of application of a method of Activity-based costing (ABC) and Economic Value Added (EVA) in management of expenses not only in creation of a system of accounting of expenses, but also and predictions through new approaches for the analysis for identification of unproductive fields of activity in value creation of a product is proved, including positively influences the growth of business activity for trade enterprises. In the field of innovative approaches the balanced system of indexes (BSI) and EVA methods harmoniously are integrated in processes of costs planning, management of them at the level of departments and in general are distributed among operation processes to responsible persons, which has a positive impact on maximizing capital cost of the enterprise. Conclusions. Application of methods of cost management as uniform system provides chance to distribute expenses on commodity groups and to define  goods which create added value gives the chance to settle the impact of minimum change of influence of a factor  on commodity turnover level due to decrease of unit  cost in life cycle of a product through the analysis of a point of profitability for increase in investment attractiveness.

The article highlights the characteristics of a phenomenon that tends to directly attack the wellbeing of large amounts of the population in a manner that jeopardizes the development of the individuals, diffuses the leisure and damages the social equilibrium of a nation. This phenomenon also pairs well with other phenomena common these days such as corruption and underground economy. We are living in hard times when the shameless triumph or the abusers are admired, a society without guiding principles, and the opportunism wins, the insolents set the tone while the population tolerates it, everything becomes corruptible while the majority remains silent. This picture of today’s world is very often complemented by the indifference taking the form of lack of action, ultimately giving birth to thoughts on whether it is high time to hide, to back down, analyze our activity to take a firm grip on oneself and reevaluate those around us. When the abuse of power for personal gains manifests from post to pillar, the corruption is systemic, the harmful perception that impunity exists should be destroyed. Unless we do it by uniting our forces in fighting this critical issue, the idea that money can be earned without effort or work will be disseminated and ultimately their value cannot be other but zero.It would be very helpful to look back in history while reconsidering out attitude towards work, moral and ethical values, well promoted by religion. There is an attractive link between religion and economy, but without understanding it in broad sense, as if religion should be linked to the evolution of an economic indicator. Beyond the attribute of being an economic performer the believer possesses, this attribute can be outwardly disseminated only through work, as it is the only that adds value. Isn’t the economic growth measured precisely by the value added? Where does this new value comes from which has its roots exclusively in lively work carried out by the people – creation of the Divinity – with and on the materiality? To better understand this, I suggest we should imagine a peasant in spring going with a basket full of corn seeds to seed a plot of land that he had previously ploughed and cared so as to be ready for a new crop. If he carefully seeds the corn from his basket on the plot formerly looked after and through his effort, his work, attends for the shoots coming out from the ground to be irrigated on time and the pests to be removed, there is no doubt that the results will not be late in coming. Following the faithful effort and work put into the cultivation of the corn, the harvesting will bring out ten folds more corn seeds. Isn’t this added value? Is this peasant respect-worthy? Are his effort and work true and clean?

This study aims to derive the function that can be used to predict the growth rate in the added value of industrial production in Jordan, depending on the financial ratios of industrial companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive and analytical approach and multiple regression analysis were used using the SPSS program. The study population was represented by the public joint-stock companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange in the industrial sector from 1994 to 2018. Results show that the financial ratios influencing the growth rate in industrial production value added the most (Industry t + 1) are earnings per share (EPS), net profit margin (NPM), and return on equity (ROE). Moreover, the effect is non-linear expressed by a function that can be used to predict the industrial production in Jordan. The study recommends paying attention to the partial input to predict macroeconomic variables, especially with the development of systems for storing and processing big data, as this method provides appropriate and sufficient data to make accurate decisions and enhances the right track.

Africa is currently commodity dependent in its global trade engagement particularly in agro-based sectors where it has strong presence. Therefore, an in depth analysis of the leather industry which is an important component of agri-business in the continent is discussed in this paper. The attempt takes cognizance of its key socio-economic aspects related to unemployment, wealth creation, rural development and gender parity. As such, the need for appropriate transformational strategies as prerequisite to the continent’s sustainable development initiatives are investigated. It is envisaged that these strategies will encompass sustainable models of translating the continent to product dependency and inculcate a diversified approach to the resultant value added products anticipated to have huge potential. The approach is to strengthen Africa’s regional value chain platform as a preamble to the global value chain entry which, for a long time has placed the continent towards commodity dependence. Whilst focusing on the regional value chains, relevant stratums of the leather sector are considered in this paper. This initiative encompasses depiction of Africa’s performance, innovation and developmental strides so far achieved. Major results indicate that low to medium level artisanal skills and long experienced practioners (5-30yrs) consolidates the continent’s strength. In addition, the existence of youthful entrepreneurs (aged 30-49) provides a solid ground for the transformational quest to be pursued in Africa. To actualize on this initiative, the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa-Leather and Leather Products Institute (COMESA-LLPI) in collaboration with The Common Wealth Secretariat (ComSec) has successfully established a regional design studio (RDS) whose objective is to promote value addition, increase productivity and competitiveness, market access, regional integration and incentivize the drive towards product diversification and regional value added product dependence. Thusly, the paper asserts that to attain this aspired position the approach has to be all encompassing, adopt a triple helix approach and operate on a strengthened regional value chain platform.

The article considers the development of outsourcing relations in the world, the role of outsourcing in the development of the world economy. There are some researches on this issue that describe certain aspects of the functioning of organizations that use outsourcing in their activities, which, however, without considering the industry specifics of using outsourcing. In particular, this applies to the theoretical and practical use of outsourcing in the agricultural business. Taking into account the dynamic of outsourcing development, its research requires constant scientific exploring, updating knowledge in this area, comprehensive analysis, generalization of modern outsourcing practices, and formulation of the precise scientific and practical recommendations. Outsourcing relations in the agro-industrial business of the Netherlands, Great Britain, Poland and Japan are analyzed. The advantages and risks of outsourcing and selection of outsourcers to perform certain functions of the enterprise are systematized. It has been proven that companies that use only internal opportunities instead of external ones (instead of outsourcing) are less innovation-oriented and cannot take advantage of opportunities to develop new value added products. It is noted that highly specialized outsourcers can do much more to create added value at a lower cost than any integrated enterprise. There are basic criteria for choosing an outsourcer determined. The expected benefits from the use of outsourcing are singled out: savings in operating costs, reduction of investment costs, supply of fresh capital, conversion of constant value into variable, improving the quality of products and services, improving the adaptability of the enterprise, access to modern technologies, focus on key activities and solutions associated with existing features. The existence of a strong positive correlation between the level of outsourcing development and production volumes, trade volumes, employment level and innovation level has been proved. The reasons for the low level of implementation and development of outsourcing in domestic vertically integrated agricultural enterprises are identified.

Research background: The nature of bankruptcy has been the subject of interest for economic theories, both positive?identifying relationships between bankruptcy and other economic categories ? and normative, shaping the rules for the proper regulation of bankruptcy. In turn, the functioning of an enterprise in conditions of risk, financial threat, and finally a crisis that could lead to bankruptcy, are of interest to management. The interpenetration of these two dimensions provided the motivation for this study, which assumes a bottom-up approach: from individual results to summarised multi-sectional comparisons. Purpose of the article: The purpose of the research was to evaluate the level, directions of change, and structure of the degree of financial threat in industrial enterprises. The period under analysis was 2007?2018 and the whole population of industrial enterprises in Poland (15,999 entities) was examined. The enterprises were small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as large enterprises (LEs). The financial analysis covered macro-, meso-, and microeconomic levels. Methods: The analysis was conducted using a comparative approach and financial threat predictions obtained from the original multivariable logit model. Heat maps were used to evaluate the intensity of changes in financial threat. The displacement of objects in structures was studied, ordered, and classified. Four normative standards of threat scenarios were defined and then used to evaluate similarities in the profiles of the structures examined, using the similarity measure. The ranking and its variability were analysed in the assessment of profiles. Findings & value added: As the result of the research, properties were described and profiles were determined for the structures in terms of the degree of threat and its correlation with rate of bankruptcy and creating added value. The originality of the research comes from the use of novel dynamic logit models. The added value is a unique study on the entire population of industrial enterprises in the national economy and a methodology for identifying financial threat profiles and their similarity at subsequent aggregation levels (the micro-, meso-, and macro-levels). This made it possible to derive patterns and regularities for economic policy and guidelines for business management.
