Based on the correlation and regression analysis, the article assesses the influence of external and internal factors of the business environment on the profitability of modern enterprises. The directions of improving the strategy for managing the profitability of domestic enterprises in the conditions of the dynamism of the business environment are determined, the implementation of which will give their leaders the opportunity to focus on the priorities of long-term development. Taking into account the impact of the variability of the business environment will allow enterprises to form an adaptation buffer in the face of the transformational challenges of our time. The expediency of carrying out a systematic assessment of the factors of the business environment for the activities of enterprises has been substantiated, the results of which will make it possible to adjust the priorities for the future development of entrepreneurial structures. The carried out correlation and regression analysis of the influence of the business environment made it possible to determine the progressive directions of the strategy for managing the profitability of enterprises. With the help of a quantitative assessment, a significant relationship was determined between the cost of goods sold and net profit, as well as the dependence of net profit on macroeconomic indicators of the country's development, in particular: the real wage index and the growth rate of nominal GDP. In today's dynamic business environment, one of the most important factors in the competitiveness of any enterprise is the development and implementation of a profit management strategy. Therefore, the authors have proposed strategic actions to manage profitability at the conditionally taken enterprise "XXX", namely: creation of an information base: analysis of the volume and composition of the income received; indicators that determine their size and leve; development of a forecast of possible options for the distribution of income by type of activity and their assessment; formation of the optimal variant of the distribution of enterprise income.

The purpose of the paper is to determine the relationship between different types of tourism safety and security, and components of the tourism entrepreneurship potential, to conduct a quantitative analysis of these indicators in the regions of Ukraine and to identify areas for ensuring the safety and security of the tourism entrepreneurship potential realization. Methodology. Analysis of tourism safety and security in Ukraine is based on the assessment of security potential indicator and the security threats indicator for 25 regions. These indicators take into account the following types of safety and security: security of tourist services, safety of tourist facilities and equipment, social security, political security, financial security, medical safety, information security, and ecological security. The impact of tourism safety and security on the tourism entrepreneurship potential realization is determined on the basis of correlation and regression analysis, where the indicator of the tourism entrepreneurship potential realization is the volume of domestic and inbound tourist flows in the region. The empirical basis of the study is the data of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine for 2019. The reliability of the regression model was tested on the basis of the approximation coefficient and Fisher's F-test. Results of the correlation analysis indicate a significant relationship between ensuring the safety and security of tourism in the region and the volume of domestic and inbound tourist flows. As a result of regression analysis, a model of a high level of reliability was obtained, which indicates how the volume of domestic and inbound tourist flows to the region increases with increasing the level of tourist safety and security by unit. Practical implications. Since the process of safety and security ensuring for the tourism entrepreneurship potential realization cannot be implemented exclusively at the regional level, it is justified the feasibility of a targeted public policy in eight areas. Value/originality. The identified relationship between the types of safety and security of tourism and components of the tourism entrepreneurship potential, as well as establishing the level of impact of safety and security of tourism on the tourism entrepreneurship potential realization in the region provide for a better understanding of ways for efficient governance in this area.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the asymmetry in cost behavior (cost stickiness) and to identify the impact of CEOs' compensation on the degree of cost stickiness behavior. The study population consists of the public shareholding companies listed on the ASE, which number (56) industrial company. Data were collected from (35) industrial companies for the period (2009 - 2019). To measure the degree of costs stickiness, The Model of Weiss (2010) was used. The Model of Weiss (2010) takes into account the costs and changes in the level of activity (sales) for the last four quarters of the company, Weiss (2010) model constructs the difference in logarithmic ratios of changes in cost. The study found that the CEO's compensation in Jordanian industrial companies consists of two forms. The companies pay fixed salaries or performance-related bonuses. The study found that the form of compensation that is paid to the CEO affects the behavior of managers. The results indicated that the performance-related rewards are accompanied by a decrease in the level of cost stickiness, and the compensation paid in the form of fixed salaries are accompanied by a high level of cost stickiness. The study recommends that companies should understand the role of the compensation form in administrative decisions, especially with regard to resource modifications, as management motives in relation to resource modifications must be taken into account because of their clear and direct impact on the cost structure of companies.

The profit is a factor that determines productivity of organization, its liquidity, ability to pay, financial sustainability in the modern market. A part of research performs economics and statistics analysis of main economic indicators, characterizing the formation and use of profit in organizations of the construction industry, and financial activity analysis of the two largest construction organizations in part of profit formation and its use.Materials and methods. Informational background is statistical data and analytical information about financial activity of construction organizations. Methodological basis of the research is statistical methods of data analysis: comparative and dynamical analysis, variational analysis, correlation and regression analysis.Results. The role of construction area in economics of Russia was analyzed. Construction is the key industry that influences the formation of the national economy. Main indicators that describe efficiency of activity of construction organizations were considered; analysis of number of indicators about activity of construction area was implemented; a group of organizations was chosen by using database “SPARK”; interrelationship between earnings and net profit was studied, comparative analysis between Ltd “Stroyregistr” and Closed Joint Stock Company “SEDO” is implemented. The main types of profit such as gross profit, profit on sales, before-tax profit and net profit were considered. It is worth noting that these types of profit are interrelated, since one category arises from the other depending on the income and expense items inherent in one or another type of profit. Analysis of the state of construction organizations involves the study of factors affecting their activity. For this purpose correlation and regression analysis was used in the work. Conclusion. To study the process of forming and using profits as an object of research, Ltd “Stroyregistr”, which operates in Moscow region, was chosen.
