The financial stability of a company is one of the most important criteria for assessing the situation of enterprises both for the current period and for subsequent periods of functioning. Of course, every enterprise wants to have business liquidity, otherwise the basis of entrepreneurship collapses; however, the purpose of doing business is to make a profit. An enterprise can make good profits, but at the same time have large liabilities, that is, debts. In this case, it is difficult to call the company financially stable. The onset of the economic crisis in the Russian Federation only prompts the conduct of such studies. Firstly, because it is necessary to understand how the situation in the country's economy as a whole affects a single enterprise, and secondly, what the prerequisites for this influence can be noticed in advance and how to try to prevent them. The relevance of this study lies in the fact that today in Russia there are a number of difficulties with assessing the status of organizations and their adequate comparison with reality. There are many different methods for assessing the financial condition and, in particular, the financial stability of a company. However, when choosing one of them, it is necessary to consider them in order to identify the shortcomings of their application to certain market conditions. Identification of these disadvantages of different theories will allow us to competently and reliably analyse the financial condition of various companies. It is also worth noting that this topic is relevant not only for the companies themselves. The presence of positive dynamics of financial stability indicators as an integral part of the financial condition of the enterprise is one of the most important bases of investment attractiveness. Therefore, not only a company itself is interested in such studies in the inside, but also other market entities from the outside.

Analyzing and systematizing the scientific works of many scholars, the evolution of approaches to the financial strategy of enterprise was considered and it was specified that the construction of the matrix of strategies according to Franchon and Romane makes it possible to respond timely to the need to change the financial strategy depending on the change in the conditions of its activities. To achieve the goal, the research had to solve the following tasks: determining the algorithm for calculating the financial indicators of the matrix; their calculation for the last five years of activities of the researched enterprise; determining on their basis the type of financial strategy; determination of factors influencing financial strategies; development of measures to improve the financial condition by changing the financial strategy. The object of research is PrJSC «Vinnytsia confectionery factory» («Roshen»). The matrix analysis of the company’s activities for 2015-2019 allowed to determine the further trajectory of the enterprise’s development. The indicators of economic activity of the enterprise led to an increase in financial potential, but at the same time there is an obvious limitation of the current development strategy. The obtained results as to determining the financial strategy are justified by a preliminary analysis of the financial condition. The application of the strategy matrix enables the enterprise to make the right decisions on the complex use of all financial resources aimed at achieving both the current and the strategic goals in a timely manner. Prospects for further research are to determine the impact of the quality of the company’s cash flow management on its liquidity and solvency.

The authors identified two approaches to understanding the financial security of the enterprise: the first approach, which considers financial security in terms of the enterprise’ ability to withstand the threats of the internal and external environment; the second approach determines the enterprise’ financial security as the ability of the enterprise to perform its activities effectively in an uncertain and competitive environment.

The branch features of the enterprises of housing and communal economy are investigated, that to define necessity of application of advantage of system of the balanced indicators at an estimation of efficiency of their activity. The following advantages of application of the system of balanced indicators are established: expands the information base for calculation of the indicators characterizing efficiency of use of resources; provides information on the depreciation of fixed assets and the organization of the production process; discloses the costs of maintenance, training, retraining and social security of staff; identifies the reasons for non-performance of contractual relations by consumers and service providers. We believe that the shortcomings of the system of balanced scores are: the lack of regulations governing the calculation of the procedure and the threshold values of non-financial indicators for further interpretation; the content of the system of balanced scores can be interpreted differently by different groups of users (consumers, employees, management, investors) depending on the chosen development strategy; requires additional costs and additional professional competencies from management staff for implementation; does not show the impact of accounting policies on financial and non-financial indicators; is subjective. The division of efficiency indicators in terms of financial component (allows to estimate reserves for cost reduction, increase profit and profitability), customer (determines the causes of receivables, allows to identify consumers who were provided with incomplete or inadequate quality of housing and communal services), business processes (technical condition of fixed assets, the number of complaints received from consumers and the period during which the elimination of deficiencies, the cost of resources to improve the condition of services provided), staff (compliance of staff qualifications and labor costs). The order of choosing the strategy of development of the enterprise of housing and communal services depending on its purposes (increase of incomes on the basis of rendering of qualitative services, expansion of the range of services, advanced training of the personnel, management of receivables) is outlined.

From 2014 the number of banks in Ukraine essentially decreased from 180 to 76 for 01.07.2019. The unstable situation was traced in the country for this period of time. Liquidation of 104 banks demonstrated that they couldn’t manage their risks and make correct managerial decisions timely, and also the system of internal control functioned badly. Just this system includes a subdivision of internal auditing that didn’t cope with timely revelation of inexactitudes, so reasonable recommendations as to managerial decisions weren’t elaborated. For providing functions of internal auditing of a bank, the subdivision uses auditing procedures. They include analytical procedures that, in their turn, are principal for attaining aims of an auditing task. The article considers most urgent questions of using analytical procedures in internal bank auditing. The essence of the definition of “analytical procedures” has been considered and specified. Analytical procedures have been separated from the composition of auditing ones, and their theoretical aspect has been analyzed. The classification of methods of analytical procedures has been analyzed for getting auditing evidences. Analytical procedures consist of methods of internal system estimation and bank financial condition analysis and also analysis of their business-processes. Advantages and defects of methodical components of analytical procedures have been presented and analyzed. The stages of an auditing task have been studied. Analytical procedures are considered at three stages of internal auditing: planning, performing the engagement and resulting, demonstrated through the prism of economic analysis. International standards of the professional practice of internal auditing that regulate it are considered. Questions of working papers that generalize a result of using analytical procedures are separated.
