Problem. Mergers and acquisitions are traditional processes of redistribution of property rights in a market economy. Mergers are often used by companies to gain control over larger market segments and increase performance efficiency. The acquisition process is not always desirable for the target company and is often used to establish control over its assets. Thus, the problems of assessing the risk of hostile takeover of the enterprise and its prevention are extremely relevant at the current stage, especially in the transport sector of Ukraine. Goal. The goal of the work is to develop the methodology for assessing the risk of hostile takeover of a motor transport enterprise and suggest methods for preventing its occurrence. Methodology. During the study, the following research methods have been used: analysis and synthesis, logical analysis. Information resources of the study are electronic information resources and periodic publications. Results. The risk of hostile takeover of an enterprise is the probability that the enterprise will become the takeover target through the legal actions and methods taken by the acquirer, but the acquisition procedure itself is against the wishes of the target’s board. The list of factors that determine the attractiveness of the potential acquisition target includes: the attractiveness of the enterprise in terms of its financial results and performance, the enterprise is not public, it occupies a considerable market segment, the enterprise operates as a joint-stock company, it is attractive in terms of further resale of its assets, the prospects of the industry in which the enterprise operates. According to the results of the studies assessing the risk level of hostile takeover of the group of motor transport enterprises, it has been revealed that 45% of enterprises are in the medium risk group. The following list of measures aimed at defending motor transport enterprises against hostile takeovers has been developed: the formation of optimal share capital structure; share consolidation when the majority shareholder holds the controlling interest; carrying out a sound dividend policy, the continuous monitoring of amounts and maturity dates of accounts payable, preventing the risk of arousing the counterparties’ interest in the resale of debt obligations of the enterprise to others. Originality. The methodology for assessing the risk of hostile takeover of a motor transport enterprise and reasonable measures to prevent its occurrence have been proposed. Practical value. The proposed recommendations can be used by the owners and management of motor transport enterprises to build an effective system for preventing potential hostile takeovers.

The Impact

Introduction. Speculative behavior is common for modern stock markets. It leads to corporate short-termism and therefore has negative systemic implications for the states’ economies. In an attempt to mitigate this trend, the German lawmaker developed national legislation aiming, inter alia, to provide company management with additional powers it could potentially use to prevent hostile takeovers. This experience needs to be critically studied in terms of both German and Russian doctrine and legal practice.Materials and methods. This paper uses the following general and specifc scientifc methods: structure-function analysis, comparative law method, Aristotelian method, statistical method, historical method, systemic method and hermeneutic method.Results of the research. Reacting towards a number of transactions affecting the German corporate landscape, the German legislature developed the Law on Acquisition of Securities and Change of Corporate Control. This Law contains protectionist provisions potentially entitling the board of directors of a joint-stock company to undertake measures to prevent hostile takeovers either subject to consent of the supervisory board or in cases where it is authorized to do so according to the corporate charter. Nevertheless, the impact these powers have in practice is very limited, which can be mostly attributed to practical considerations of the German judiciary and legislature.Discussion and conclusions. The article contains analysis of the German and Russian legal doctrine and court practice pertaining to joint-stock companies, as well as the scope of authorities of their management, analysis of the basic advantages and disadvantages of the German regulatory approach, conclusions as to applicability of the German approach in Russia.

Currently, not a single organization can operate without accounting, regard-less of departmental affiliation and ownership. The raison is that only accounting data provide complete information about the property and financial condition of the organization. Synthetic and analytical information on the state of material, la-bour and monetary resources, the effectiveness of investment and credit policy, costs and production efficiency allows you to manage business activities and monitor the implementation of profit plans, develop long-term plans for production development. An important part of accounting is the accounting of settlements with suppliers and contractors, settlements with buyers and customers. In the course of economic activity, organizations constantly conduct settlements with suppliers for the fixed assets, raw materials, materials and inventory items, the executed works and the rendered services; with buyers – for the goods bought by them, finished goods; with credit institutions on loans, credits and other financial transactions; with the budget and tax authorities – on various payments; with other bodies and persons – for various business transactions. In a market economy, the risk of non-payment or late payment of bills increases, which leads to receivables and payables. Part of this debt in the process of financial and economic activities is inevitable and must be controlled within acceptable values. Overdue accounts payable indicate violations of financial and payment discipline by buyers, suppliers, and customers, which requires immediate action to eliminate the negative consequences. Timely application of these measures is possible only when the company carries out systematic control. This article considers the economic essence of settlements with suppliers and contractors as part of the obligations of the enterprise, their definition, recognition, classification, and evaluation in accounting. The legislative and normative regulation of accounting of settlements with suppliers and contractors is singled out. The final stage of this work is the presentation of ways to improve settlements with suppliers and contractors on the example of the company Public Joint Stock Company "ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih".

The aim of the study was to assess the professional risk of developing diseases in workers of the railway car repair enterprise. The Voronezh Car Repair Plant, a branch of Vagonremmash Joint-Stock Company, was chosen as the object of study. Methods: «The methodology for calculating individual occupational risk depending on the working conditions and the health status of the employee», developed by the Klin Institute for Protection and Working Conditions in conjunction with the Research Institute of Occupational Medicine (2013), the main professions; cohort study with the calculation of the relative risk of morbidity with temporary disability, the odds ratio, the etiological share of factors in the formation of morbidity (group size: 250 people, experimental group — workers of the main specialties, 95 people — comparison group). Results. According to the research results, the priority factors of occupational health risk include: chemical, noise, heating microclimate, low light level. For certain professions, the share of the contribution of priority factors to the risk profile (PV) reaches 40 %. The indicator of individual occupational risk is 0.12 to 0.26 units. The high level of professional risk (0.22 ÷ 0.26) is characterized by the working conditions of the mechanics for the repair of rolling stock, machine tools (woodworking), casters (metal), thermists, plastic casters. In professional groups with medium and high risk, the indicator of the relative risk of morbidity with temporary disability is higher than 1 (RR = 1.75 and 1.39, respectively), and the etiological share of production factors in the formation of diseases is from 27.95 (subgroup with secondary professional risk) up to 42.88 % (a subgroup with high professional risk), which indicates the professional condition of the disease. Discussion. In general, our data are consistent with the results of similar studies conducted earlier at the car building and car repair enterprises. In order to ensure hygienically safe working conditions and preserve the health of workers, it is necessary to reduce the level of exposure to production factors, including through the introduction of modern equipment and improvement of technological processes.

The article studies the financial stability of a particular insurance organization. The financial stability of the insurance company is an essential component of its activities and characterizes the ability to pay off its obligations on time and in full. The analysis of financial stability is defined as an independent object of evaluation, which explores the structure of the formation and use of capital. To assess the financial stability of the insurance company, a set of indicators was formed, including the following ratios: level of equity, ratio of equity to liabilities, ratio of insurance premiums and insurance reserves, ratio of working capital and non-current capital, level of permanent capital, ratio of equity and insurance reserves, level of debt load, level of insurance reserves. The insurance public joint-stock company RESO-Garantia was chosen as the object of analysis. The analysis showed that the capital structure in the insurance company under consideration is not optimal. The company has a shortage of insurance reserves, which is offset by equity.

The Impact

Recently, the development of agricultural technology has been focused on achieving higher reliability and quality of work. The aim of the presented paper was to examine the possibilities of evaluating the quality of work of wide-area irrigation machinery by monitoring the coefficients of uniformity and non-uniformity of irrigation. The object of the research was pivot irrigation machinery equipped with sprinklers with a total length from 230 to 540 m. The commonly applied quality of work parameter for wide-range irrigators is the irrigation uniformity coefficient according to Heermann and Hein CUH. Work quality evaluations were also carried out through other parameters applicable in practice, such as irrigation uniformity coefficients calculated according to Christiansen CU, Wilcox and Swailes Cws, and our introduced parameters, the coefficient ar (derived from the degree of unevenness according to Oehler) and the degree of uniformity γr (derived from the degree of non-uniformity according to Voight). Other applied parameters for determining the quality of work of wide-range irrigation machinery were the coefficients of irrigation uniformity according to Hart and Reynolds CUhr, further according to Criddle CUcr and subsequently according to Beale and Howell CUbr. Next, the parameters of the non-uniformity coefficient according to Oehler a, the coefficient of variation according to Stefanelli Cv, the degree of non-uniformity according to Voigt γ and the degree of non-uniformity according to Hofmeister Ef were evaluated. Field tests were performed during the growing season of cultivated crops (potatoes, corn and sugar beet) in the village of Trakovice (agricultural enterprise SLOV-MART, southwest of the Slovakia) and in the district of Piešťany (Agrobiop, joint stock company). During the research, the inlet operating parameters (speed stage, inlet pressure, irrigation dose), technical parameters (number of sprayers, total length, number of chassis) and weather conditions (wind speed and temperature) were recorded. The obtained results were examined by one-way ANOVA analysis depending on the observed coefficient or input conditions and subsequently verified by Tukey and Duncan tests as needed. Irrigation uniformity values ranged from 67.58% (Cws) to 95.88% (CUbh) depending on the input conditions. Irrigation non-uniformity values ranged from 8.58 (a, Ef) to 32.42% (Cv). The results indicate a statistically significant effect of the site of interest and thus the impact of particular field conditions (p < 0.05). When evaluating the application of different coefficients of irrigation uniformity, the results showed a statistically significant effect only in the first test (p = 0.03, p < 0.05). During further repeated measurements, the quality of work increased due to the performed inspection of all sprayers and the reduction in the influence of the wind.
