The high level of human involvement in marketing ensures that it is, and always will be, a dynamic business function. When the impact of accelerating technological developments is added, the dynamism often turns to volatility. The rapidly changing business environment necessitates regular consideration of the role of marketing in the business environment, both from an internal and external point of view. This study analyses marketing and marketing activities from a consumer perspective. It measures consumer attitudes towards the four P's and converts these scores to an overall 'attitude towards marketing' index. It also compares the results with a similar study conducted in 1990 (the 1990 study). The 1990 study reported a negative marketing index of -16.262. Older consumers in particular voiced their disapproval of marketing practices. Pricing was singled out as the most important bone of contention. The pricing and the pricing practices used by marketers were seen as often unfair and unreasonable. Advertising was also viewed rather sceptically. Retailing was the only marketing mix element to return a positive index. The results of this study show that the SA Marketing Index has declined from -16.262 in 1990 to -34.125 in 1993. The decline in the marketing index is primarily due to the considerable decline in the price index from -8.470 to -24.368, a slight decrease in the product index (from -2.719 to -9.939) and a marginal deterioration in the retailing index. The decline in the price index in particular was so severe that the improvement in the advertising index (from -6.434 to +0.606) had almost no influence on the marketing index. When the impact of demographic variables on attitudes were considered, Afrikaans-speaking consumers and those who are relatively well qualified academically, turned out to be particularly dissatisfied with marketing.

Supply Chain Management (SCM) has proven to be an effective tool that aids companies in the development of competitive advantages. SCM Systems are relied on to manage warehouses, transportation, trade logistics and various other issues concerning the coordinated movement of products and services from suppliers to customers. Although in today’s fast paced business environment, numerous supply chain solution tools are readily available to companies, choosing the right SCM software is not an easy task. The complexity of SCM systems creates a multifaceted issue when selecting the right software, particularly in light of the speed at which technology evolves. In this chapter, we use the approach of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to determine which SCM software best meets the needs of a company. The AHP approach outlined in this paper can be easily transferred to the comparison of other SCM software packages.

Abstract The article is devoted to the assessment of assembly accuracy when positioning with the use of industrial manipulators (robots). Classic assembly technologies are outdated and have many disadvantages that can be solved by the automation of industrial processes, which became possible due to the rapid development of robotization. In the material there are investigation the possibility of using industrial robots for positioning structural elements of aircraft from the point of view of achieving the required assembly accuracy. For the analysis, foreign literature sources and the current experience of introducing similar technologies by large aircraft manufacturers were used. To assess the assembly accuracy, the formulas for the functional size error were used. An enlarged technological assembly process is presented, graphic materials with basing schemes are presented. Based on the data obtained, the advantages and disadvantages of basing with the help of industrial robots at this stage of technology development are formulated, taking into account the existing production experience.

The paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of tax initiatives on the introduction of an excise tax on carbonated sweet drinks and red meat products, a fee for the use of plastic utensils and a new special tax regime for self-employed. Based on the complexity and diversity of the issues and in order to ensure the reliability of the conclusions and proposals the paper analyzes the problem in various aspects using an interdisciplinary approach: 1) in the context of topical problems of social development; 2) from the point of view of solving systemic problems of taxation in the Russian Federation and improving its legal regulation; 3) for compliance with the principles of taxation and the economic and legal essence of taxes and fees; 4) in the light of ensuring budget profitability and reducing financial costs. When considering the development of effective mechanisms of legalization, the authors proceeded from the need to ensure the unconditional constitutional obligation to pay taxes and fees, the mandatory application of penalties against defaulters, the inadmissibility of replacing the principle of obligation with the principle of voluntariness: the performance of the constitutional duty cannot be made exclusively dependent on civic consciousness and social responsibility, on the availability of various preferences. The authors are convinced that when applying incentive mechanisms, it is necessary to distinguish between non-payers and payers, without allowing the latter to be put in a worse position. The study resultes in the conclusion on the strengthening of legal regulation in terms of ensuring the mandatory tax liability, about the increase of the responsibility of legislators in the implementation of the principles of taxation in order to avoid the adoption of legal norms that contradict them.

Introduction. In an unstable market environment, it is quite difficult to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of marketing activities for agricultural enterprises using traditional methodological approaches. We believe that now there is a need to develop methodological approaches that will help to establish the relationship in the marketing management system, taking into account the changing market conditions and the resource potential of the agricultural enterprise. Methods. The following methods are used to achieve this goal, namely: methods of monographic comparative analysis and specific methods in the field of analysis of theoretical and analytical foundations of marketing activities to determine the strategic prospects of marketing activities, identify effective measures to improve marketing activities in agricultural enterprises. Research methods are based on theoretical developments and scientific tools, which includes analysis and evaluation of formulated methodological approaches to assess the effectiveness of management of marketing activities of agricultural enterprises on the basis of quantitative and qualitative indicators. The research methodology also provides for the generalization of scientific sources that explore the rational aspects of management and increase the effectiveness of marketing activities of enterprises in the agricultural sector of Ukraine. Results. Theoretical approaches to understanding the management of enterprise marketing activities are summarized, and the distinction and fundamental relationship between the categories «marketing performance» and «marketing efficiency» are established. It has been found that the main purpose of these categories is to achieve the desired results, in which the achievement does not take into account the method and the costs incurred, and the efficiency takes into account the way with the resources expended. The formation of a holistic system for managing the effectiveness of marketing activities is achieved through synchronization of the process of influencing marketing tools in order to create an overall synergistic effect. We have developed a balanced system of indicators of the enterprise to evaluate the effectiveness of marketing activities of the enterprise, which considers the specific activity and business orientation of the agricultural enterprise. It is proved that, depending on strategic goals, business orientations of agrarian enterprise are determined, which set the future vector of business development, therefore marketing activity should promote business development. Discussions. Promising areas of further research are the development of methods for analyzing the cost-effectiveness of marketing activities in the agricultural sector.
