The article is aimed at identifying and analyzing transaction costs when making management decisions at the level of an economic entity. In the course of the research, the following methods were used: grouping – in determining the main forms of transaction costs based on existing classifications; generalization – when systematizing information on the identification of approaches to the assessment and measurement of transaction costs; structural and logical – to determine the place of transaction costs in the structure of the enterprise’s costs; analysis and synthesis – to substantiate the recommendations for displaying information on the level of transaction costs at the enterprise in financial statements. The main forms of transaction costs on the basis of existing classifications are researched. Information on identification of approaches to valuation and measurement of transaction costs is systematized. The place of transaction costs in the structure of the enterprise’s expenses is determined. Recommendations on displaying information on transaction costs at the enterprise in the financial statements on the basis of their occurrence in a certain sphere of activity of the market entity (transaction costs of operational, financial, investment activities) are substantiated, which represents the scientific novelty of the research. It is concluded that the institutional approach, in particular application of the theory of transaction costs before their valuation and preparation of financial statements, allows not only identifying possible solutions to existing problems in accounting theory and practice, but also seting fundamentally new tasks that require non-standard solutions. The practical significance of the obtained research results is to determine the impact of transaction costs on the efficiency of the functioning of market entities and substantiate recommendations for displaying information about their level at the enterprise in financial statements.

Background. Each entity in the course of business has transaction costs (TC) that directly or indirectly affect financial and economic position of an entity. The volume of TC is constantly growing, so we should take them into account in making management decisions, to ensure their monitoring, separate accounting and to record in the books of the entity. Analysis of recent research and publications has shown that there is a large num­ber of scientific achievements of foreign and domestic scientists, but significant number of issues connected with the importance of reflecting information on transaction costs in accounting and reporting remains unresolved and therefore requires further research. The aim of the article is to identify the features of the disclosure of transaction costs in accounting of the entity, which are related to the formal principles and standards of its management and the operation of informal institutions that influence management decisions. Materials and methods. Methods of induction and deduction, analysis and synthesis, associations and analogies, empirical were used in the research. The works and the appro­aches of domestic and foreign authors were studied, systematized, detailed and specified. Results. Transaction costs are increasing and are defined by the researchers and experts as the important element that restrains economic growth in the realities of eco­nomic development in Ukraine. According to the formal rules, the object of accounting is only those transaction costs that are the result of business operations of the entity, recorded in the primary documents and the implementation of which does not contradict national laws. The evidence from practice shows that the methodology of accounting cost provides information about a significant amount of transaction costs that can be identified and measured by the accounting method elements. However, the costs grouping by financial statement items without taking into account the impact of the transactional component does not provide full disclosure in the financial statements of information summarized in the accounting. Conclusion. Transaction costs, as a category of neo-institutionalism, should be con­sidered through the tasks set by the relevant social institutions. Formal tools for the formation of information about the objects of accounting under the conditions of today can be the accounting policy of the business entity and the professional accountant’s judgment. The provision of information systems and Internet technologies leads to the auto­matic reduction of TC.

Purpose. In the context of the development of digital technologies, the issue of the existence and legal regulation of digital of financial assets is being updated. In modern legal practice, there is no uniformity in the terminology of these relations, so it is especially important to consider the possibility of using different terms from digital currency to digital rights. The article analyzes various approaches to defining the concept of cryptocurrency offered by specialists working not only in the field of law, but also in economics, since it is important to consider the possibility of reflecting digital assets in accounting. In the course of the research, both General scientific and private scientific methods were used: scientific abstraction, system, logical, analysis and synthesis, comparative legal and formal legal. Conclusions are made that: 1) as a result of numerous discussions about the legal regulation of digital of financial assets, the state has decided on the terminology in these relations; 2) according to the author, the most successful term is the concept of “digital financial assets”, since the term “asset” is used in russian legislation, in particular investment and tax; 3) russian legal practice has used the experience of foreign countries when making changes to existing legislation, in particular in civil, expanding the list of objects of civil legal relations. Scientific and practical significance. This research allows us to critically understand the existing problems of cryptocurrency regulation, as well as contributes to the development of theoretical directions on this topic and the creation of educational materials dedicated to the digital economy.

The purpose of the article is to study and comprehend the essence of credit as a basic economic category and identify the features of bank lending in the agricultural sector of the economy. Research methods. In the process of research a number of methods were used: abstract-logical - for structuring and theoretical substantiation of the essence of the categorical apparatus of credit and credit relations; methods of comparative analysis and synthesis - to study the evolutionary aspects of credit development and credit relations in society; monographic - in identifying and systematizing the characteristics of credit relations in the agricultural sector of the economy; structural and functional approach for the formation of a conceptual vision of credit as an economic category and providing the specifics of the system of bank lending to agricultural enterprises; graphic - to illustrate and systematize the results of the study. Research results. The ambiguity of the interpretation of the credit category in the modern economic literature is revealed. It is proposed to consider the loan as a system of organizational and economic relations between the lender and the borrower, legally enshrined in the loan agreement, on the provision of funds for temporary use on terms of payment, maturity, intended use, security and return. The dualistic nature of credit efficiency is identified and analyzed. The fundamental nature of the impact of the specifics of agriculture on credit relations in the agricultural sector of the economy is assessed. The legitimacy of the existence of a separate mechanism of credit relations in the agar sector of economies is proved. The essential characteristics and features of agricultural credit are systematized and the priority features of objects of crediting in agriculture are covered. Scientific novelty. Theoretical aspects of structuring the interpretation of the essence of credit and credit relations have been further developed. Substantiation of structural components and features of bank lending of the agar sector of the economy. Practical significance. The results of the study can be used by public and sectoral authorities, as well as banking institutions in developing measures to enhance lending to the agricultural sector of the economy. Tabl.: 1.

The purpose of the article is to analyze the existing methodological approaches to assessing the activities of corporate cluster structures of various types and to select criteria for assessing the activities of interregional research centers of the NAAS, as cluster formations. Research methods. General scientific methods of empirical knowledge were applied: monographic and comparison, with the help of which an understanding of various methods of assessing clustering processes and the degree of implementation of integration initiatives was achieved, individual levels of cluster development were discovered and compared, changes in theoretical approaches to assessing their activities were revealed, trends in the development of scientific thoughts about this; also used cognitive comparison and description operations; according to the method of analysis, the optimal methods for assessing the effectiveness of cluster scientific unions have been identified; the synthesis method provided an opportunity to integrate approaches and propose a methodology for determining the level of efficiency of a scientific and innovative association; using a systematic approach, the influence of internal and external factors on the performance of cluster entities and their individual participants in a competitive environment was studied; abstraction made it possible to move away from a number of stereotypes regarding the definition of acceptable criteria for assessing the results of cluster activities and to highlight their essential characteristics, which is the basis of the model for the indicative assessment of the integration of scientific and innovative associations. Research results. A number of different theoretical approaches to determining the effectiveness of the activity of cluster structures are disclosed. It has been established that, in particular, their activities are assessed depending on the object of research or on the potential benefits of integration, while taking into account macro- and microeconomic indicators that characterize the impact of the cluster on society. The analysis and synthesis of currently known individual methods provided an opportunity to propose criteria for assessing the effectiveness of the functioning of “interregional research centers of the NAAS, maximally reflect the degree of implementation of those aspects of integration that ensure the economic efficiency of interaction of all subjects of cluster education and at the same time open up prospects for further research to determine the fair score and weighting factors for each of the proposed indicators. Scientific novelty. A system of complex indicative indicators is proposed for assessing the activities of a scientific and innovative cluster, which reflect the essential characteristics of the implementation of integration initiatives in the agricultural sector. Practical significance. The developed proposals for determining the effectiveness of the functioning of the scientific and innovative cluster can be used to assess the results of the activities of the interregional scientific centers of the NAAS.

Mega construction project governance is an evolutionary process characterized by high transaction costs and complex interrelationships. Based on transaction cost theory, relational contract theory and evolutionary governance theory, this study explored the impact of evolutionary project governance on mega construction project performance by collectively considering the mediating effect of transaction costs and the moderating effect of a relational contract. Partial least squares structural equation modeling was used to test the hypotheses based on data collected from 176 respondents. The results show that evolutionary project governance would be more effective in increasing project performance and reducing transaction costs in the context of a relational contract. Reducing transaction costs is an effective way to improve project performance, and it is an important mediation variable between evolutionary project governance and project performance in the context of a relational contract. The results enrich the theory on mega construction project governance and reduce the imbalance between theory and practice in previous studies.

Subject. The article discusses the impact of the control principle on the existing consolidated financial reporting concept. Objectives. I evaluate possible alterations in the consolidation methodology as a result of the anomaly of the control principle. Methods. The study is based on the method of analogy for scientific hypothesizing. The study methodologically relies upon Thomas Kuhn's paradigm shift theory and the impact of anomalies on methodological principles of normal science. The study combines the analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, and the method of comparison when analyzing the existing control criteria and identifying anomalies of the control principles as part of the consolidated financial reporting concept, and examining how the anomaly influences the consolidation methodology. Results. I discovered that the control principle in the consolidated financial reporting concept influences the consolidation methodology. I suggest using my own methodological approach to preparing consolidated financial statements in case of the non-equity control the parent company holds over its subsidiary. Conclusions and Relevance. The control principle in the consolidated financial reporting concept has not been formalized, thus causing anomalies affecting methodological principles of consolidated financial reporting. The non-equity control of the parent company over its subsidiary is a case in point. This control induces unavoidable changes in the consolidation methodology. The findings can be used to prepare consolidated financial statements in case of the non-equity control of the parent company over its subsidiary.
