The authors present the results of evaluating the economic efficiency of growing blackberry cultivars of different ripening terms in the plantation of the Institute of Horticulture of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences (NAAS) of Ukraine. The capital investments on the creation and management of 1 ha of the plantation were 517.3 thousand ₴ (under the planting plan 1.25 х 3.00 m), the trellis putting and laying being about 50 % of the mentioned sum. The productional costs on the fruit-bearing plantation management depended on the cv yield, expenditures for salaries and wages, fertilizing, protective means, fuel and lubricant use, plants covering for winter, the agricultural technics amortization etc. and were within 144.1-283.0 thousand ₴. The wholesale price of the early ripening varieties products was 80.0 ₴/kg. Thus the receipts of the realized products were within considerable limits. Cvs Thornfree, Asterina, Čačanska Bestrna and Chester were characterized with the lowest cost per 1 t of the products (22.61; 23.10; 23.43 and 24.97 thousand ₴ respectively while Nasoloda and Karaka Black with the highest one (38.98 and 37.85 thousand ₴ respectively). The profit per 1 ha of inland variety Nasoloda plantations was the lowest one among the presented cultivars, (42.74 thousand ₴) whereas the early ripening cvs Loch Tay and Brzezina ensured 380.79 and 335.18 thousand ₴ respectively. The same cvs distinguis hed themselves for the highest profitableness level (185.2 and 172.4 % respectively as well as for the shortest rates of the capital investments return recovery – 3.4 and 3.5 years respectively. The profitableness of cv Karaka Black was 111.3 % with the rate of return cost recovery 5.0 years because of the lower yield. This was economically favourable too though. The average and late ripening cultivars which formed the yield of 7.0-8.0 t/ha had the rate of the investment return 4.0-5.0 years. It should be noted that it was cv Thornfree that distinguishhed itself for the highest profitableness (121.1 %) among late ripening cvs with the rates of capital investments on the plantation establishment return 3.4 years.

In the conditions of the Ukraine`s Lisosteppe the efficiency of the researched biological protection means Trichodermin, Planryz, Pentafag and Gaupsin in dejecting the development of and septoria spot in the gooseberry orchards appeared to depend both on the experimental preparations and cultivar peculiarities. The cv Svarog biological resistance to powdery mildew proved higher as compared to “Tiasmyn” on the background of the protective treatments with biological preparations.The development of on the variety “Tiasmyn” varied from 24.4 to 31.1 % and on “Svarog” from 12.7 to 17.6 %. The preparation Gaupsin turned on more efficient against diseases in comparison with the other biological preparations during all the research years. The economic evaluation showed that in the “Tiasmyn” orchards in the variants with using the biopreparations the production costs per ha rose by 9.6 - 13.0 %, including the plants protection by 1.9-1.7 % as compared to the control but thanks to the yield increase by13.8-20.0 % the profit was higher by 17.6-26.3 %. The most effective variant in this cultivar protection system was the preparation Gaupsin utilization – the rate of return cost recovery was 225 %. The profit per hectare in the above mentioned treatment rose to 129.6 thousand grn under a profitableness level of 124.1 %. The cultivar “Svarog” was characterized with the lower yield than “Tiasmyn” in all the variants. As a result the profit and profitableness rise of the economic efficiency indices in the treatments with the biopreparations usage in comparison with the control (as a result of the yield increase by 19.6-25.4 % the profit rose by 22.7-35.1 %). When applying Gaupsin the highest rate of return cost recovery of the additional costs, profit per hectare and profitableness level were achieved – 230.9 %, 120.8 thousand grn and 119.4 % respectively. The obtained results enable to recommend Gaupsin as an element of the gooseberry orchards protection from the main diseases in the Ukraine`s Lisosteppe.

From an economic point of view, efficiency implies the use of resources, of any kind, at maximum efficiency, or else the relation between effect and effort is over unit. In any kind of activity economic efficiency is the basis for its start. In the present paper, the level of economic efficiency for rape crops will be determined, according to two technological systems: conventional and organic. The revenue structure, and especially the expenditure, will be found in the income and expenditure budget of the culture. We will compare the value of production, production costs, but also yield or rate of return. In the continuation of the study, a set of indicators of economic efficiency will be calculated for each crop system, which will be subjected to a mirror analysis, to determine the feasibility of rapeseed crops as accurately as possible. Finally, the results will be presented, the profitability of the crop according to the system, the level of the profit and the recommendations regarding the future way of growing the rapeseed.

Since 2005, expenditures on research, development and technological work (R & D) have been allocated in the structure of investments in non-financial assets. The absence of methodological developments on a comprehensive analysis of indicators of environmental and economic efficiency does not allow us to clearly determine the real costs of creating a system of rational nature use and environmental protection. In order to, at least approximately estimate the necessary level of investment in the restoration of the environment, it is necessary to conduct a study of the relationship between investment and environmental activities through the interrelationship between the concepts of "investment" and "capital investments".

SummaryThe paper concerns the situation in which an evaluation of outstanding claims is discounted, in anticipation of investment return earned by the funds supporting that liability. Factors bearing upon the choice of an appropriate rate of return to be assumed in this evaluation are considered.The ‘standard approach’ to this problem is criticized in two main respects:(i) there is usually no statement (indeed, no consideration) of whether the discounted value of outstanding claims is to be associated with assets at book, market, or some other value;(ii) the discounting of outstanding claims is often performed by means of an assumed ‘inflation gap’, i.e. an assumed difference between future rates of inflation and investment return.Various other matters germane to the determination of an appropriate rate of investment return are listed in Section 2.Sections 3 and 5 deal particularly with points (i) and (ii) raised above. It is suggested that, in certain circumstances, an evaluation of outstanding claims which fails to address (i) or is carried out on an ‘inflation gap’ basis will be virtually meaningless.Section 4 deals with the case of an insurance fund in which assets are matched with technical liabilities by amount and term. The considerations which would cause the rate of investment return projected in these circumstances, to differ from that projected in the case of an absence of matching are discussed.Section 6 deals with the issue of exactly which assets are to be regarded as supporting the liability for outstanding claims. It is apparent that the identification of such assets will affect the rate of return to be regarded as referable to outstanding claims. Particular matters considered include:(i) assets to be associated with acquisition of new business (and hence not with outstanding claims);(ii) debtor and creditor items. particularly outstanding premiums and inwards loans.Section 7 gives a numerical example of the projection of future rates of investment return. This is done by means of a computer projection of various items of a hypothetical insurance fund, taking into account projected future:(i) interest rates;(ii) rate of growth of new premium;(iii) the required distribution of assets by sector;(iv) profitability of business underwritten.Conclusions on the various matters considered are dotted through the paper. For convenience, they are collected together in Section 8.

Three mathematical indices were developed to estimate: a) potential for early dollar return or early ripening (IE), b) concentrated cropping (IC), and deviation or similarity of a genotype to known cultivars (ID). Early ripening genotypes with high yield early in the season will have larger IE values than late genotypes with lower yield early in the season. Genotypes with few harvests will have larger IC values than those requiring several harvests. The ID index helps to identify and group genotypes with similar characteristics. These indices condense large numbers of values or arrays of traits into single index values, thereby simplifying genotype comparisons.

The article deals with the problem of the economic feasibility of continuing the operation of obsolete vessels, their modernization and acquisition of new modern vessels. There have been analyzed the economic issues of modernization of obsolete vessels, content of work on the modernization of vessels, as well as fundamental differences between the modernization of existing vessels and their replacement with new ones. Static principles of determining the economic efficiency of the vessels modernization are formed, which allows a preliminary assessment of the economic feasibility of work on the modernization of vessels. Methodological guidelines for determining the economically viable payback period of a modernized vessel have been developed. It is recommended to evaluate the economic feasibility of modernizing an outdated vessel compared to replacing it with a new competitive vessel by comparing operating costs for an existing vessel after upgrading it with operating costs for a new vessel, as well as comparing capital investments in upgrading and purchasing a new vessel. Inequality is constructed, expressing the economic feasibility of the early replacement of obsolete vessels with new modern ones compared to the modernization. The dynamic principles of the economic evaluation of the modernization of vessels are formed, taking into account the change in the value of money over time during the investment stages of the project on the modernization of the vessel and the subsequent periods of operation of the upgraded vessel. Calculations were made of the economic efficiency of the modernization of the Volzhsky vessel of the project 05074, the purpose of which was to upgrade the power plant and reduce operating costs. The positive results of the modernization of vessels of the river fleet are considered. The negative aspects of the modernization of vessels that should be taken into account when choosing the direction of updating the fleet of the Russian shipping companies are identified.
