Introduction. Since traditional accounting is based on the facts of financial and economic performance of enterprises, it does not always and fully display their real capacity, which is crucial to meet the challenge of the dynamic market environment. Methods used in flexible accounting are recognized throughout the world, as they provide a better picture of the internal capacity of the enterprise, and it is displayed in totally new balance sheet accounts and financial records. The study addresses the issue of applying flexible accounting methods and approaches for keeping records of assets (means) and liabilities (resources) in Ukrainian enterprises’ activities. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to highlight the methodological framework of using flexible accounting methods as a tool for mobilizing the enterprise’s under-utilized potential. Methods. The research methods used in the article include: the historical method (for describing the evolution of accounting studies); the method of abstraction (for harmonizing the terminology of accounting engineering); synthesis, induction and deduction (for providing rationale for applying flexible accounting methods); generalization (for making conclusions). Results. The study shows that flexible accounting methods can be used as a tool for mobilizing the enterprise’s under-utilized potential in the following segments: fixed assets – based on the optimal method of inventory accounting; inventory items – through the best values at the moment of goods release; bad debtors – through diversification when receivables are paid; creditors – through diversification when accounts payable are settled; of cash – a real prediction of their revenues in order to calculate the financial results of the enterprise; cash assets – through prediction of cash inflows and calculation of financial performance of the enterprise. Discussion. The rapid pace of the current scientific and technological breakthrough, the further globalization of the economy, and increased competition have led to the need for more effective management of business processes and financial performance, and to the search for material, human and financial resources. That has promoted accounting engineering viewed as one of the tools of flexible accounting. Further research efforts should be directed at approaches and techniques of information support for enterprise resource management.

Introduction. To date, every entity has faced accounts receivable and payable. There are times when debt becomes overdue. An entity cannot repay its debt because debtors do not repay their debt. In fact, receivables and payables are closely linked, which in turn has a negative effect on the balance sheet and financial performance of any counterparty. This article discusses cases of arrears and ways of overcoming (reducing) accounts receivable and payables. The purpose of the paper is to study the factors that influence the increase in accounts receivable and payable within the internal and external activities of the enterprise. Results. In today's economic environment, a large number of Ukrainian enterprises went bankrupt and liquidated because they were unable to pay their debt to creditors. Also this situation arose due to a certain amount of cash, which was in circulation and in time did not enter the current account of the enterprise for payment of accounts payable. On the balance sheet receivables and payables account for a large percentage of both their and others' debt. We'll look at how and under what conditions debt can be reduced. Conclusion. It is advisable to balance receivables and payables in order to control the debt at the enterprise. The constant cash flow should not stop. The debt of the debtors goes to pay off the debt to the creditors. The optimal ratio is when the accounts payable exceeds accounts receivable by 10-20%.

The article examined the current state of planning financial obligations and noted the urgency of the problem of the existence of receivables. The urgency of the problem arises due to the presence of a significant share of receivables in the assets of enterprises. The emergence of a problematic issue is the reason for the search for new ways and methods of control over accounts receivable. The organization and methodology for accounting for receivables for goods is shown on the example of TOV "EMSS". We found out that most of the company's income comes from the sale of equipment for the road construction industry, in particular, testing and diagnostic laboratories. The organization of accounting and the main problematic issues of management accounting of receivables in TOV "EMSS" are investigated. The stages of work with contractors are described and the essence of each stage is described in detail. The stage of generating an invoice for payment is considered the moment of the beginning of the receivable to the seller. It has been established that the enterprise is most characterized by current accounts receivable for products, goods and services. At the same time, the company has no bad accounts receivable. The terms of payment for goods and services formed at the enterprise are described. The state and features of management accounting of receivables and their monitoring have been investigated. The main reasons for the origin of accounts receivable in TOV "EMSS" have been clarified. The necessity of work on improving the accounting of receivables and payables has been substantiated. Measures are proposed to reduce the occurrence of accounts receivable and recommendations for improving its information support are developed. The essence of the proposed measures is to automate the information base on accounts payable and receivable of settlement participants; discussion and inclusion in contracts of all obligations between the parties at the stage of concluding the contract; fast fulfillment of obligations for the supply of goods and services; prompt updating of the state of mutual debt, keeping records and reporting of ongoing mutual settlements.

Trade credit is important as a funding source for companies having a liquidity shortage. Trade credit comprises of both accounts receivable and payable. The financial literature has discussed the impact of accounts receivable or payable on a company’s financial performance. However, there is a lack of studies on the effects of accounts receivable and payable on each other and further its effect on the financial performance of small-cap companies. Financial performance is determined using the profitability and value of the company. The researchers examined the financial performance implications of offering and receiving trade credit for a sample of 193 BSE small-cap manufacturing companies in India during the period 2011–2019. Granger causality test, Levin, Lin and Chu Unit root test, correlation and regression have been used for data analysis. The finding suggested that accounts receivable influenced the use of accounts payable. The aftermath of accounts payables is that it negatively and significantly affected the profitability and had an insignificant relationship with the value of the company. The result implies that effective management of accounts receivable can influence the application of accounts payable that improves a company’s profits and value. The current study is useful for SMEs’ managers in determining the financial performance and capital structure.

The issues of using data analysis methods to find and correct errors in the reports issued by meteorologists are considered. The features of processing various types of meteorological messages are studied. The advantages and disadvantages of existing methods of classification of text information are considered. The classification methods are compared in order to identify the optimal method that will be used in the developed algorithm for analyzing meteorological messages. The prospects of using each of the methods in the developed algorithm are described. An algorithm for processing the source data is proposed, which consists in using syntactic and logical analysis to preclean the data from various kinds of noise and determine format errors for each type of message. After preliminary preparation the classification method correlates the received set of message characteristics with the previously trained model to determine the error of the current weather report and output the corresponding message to the operator in real time. The software tools used in the algorithm development and implementation processes are described. A complete description of the process of processing a meteorological message is presented from the moment when the message is entered in a text editor until the message is sent to the international weather message exchange service. The developed software is demonstrated, in which the proposed algorithm is implemented, which allows to improve the quality of messages and, as a result, the quality of meteorological forecasts. The results of the implementation of the new algorithm are described by comparing the number of messages containing various types of errors before the implementation of the algorithm and after the implementation.
