Small business is a social and economic phenomenon. Each of those who take part in it can find their place in this sector of the economy. The state, local authorities, economic partners and entrepreneurs receive positive results from the activities of small enterprises. The role and place of small enterprises in the national economy is better manifested in the functions performed by these enterprises. Small business makes a significant contribution to the formation of a competitive environment. There are several conflicts currently. The first is a conflict between individual entrepreneurs and individuals. The second is a conflict between individual entre-preneurs on a simplified taxation system and a common system. Their taxation and the taxation of others differ from each other, which raises a large number of questions and dissatisfaction.The main purpose of the work is to analyse and identify problematic aspects of taxation of entrepreneurs in Ukraine using the example of the hotel business.A simplified taxation system can be chosen by both individual entrepreneurs and legal en-tities. Since the general system is more complicated in its form of taxation (accounting and repor-ting), more and more entrepreneurs are conducting their activities in a simplified taxation system. Hotels, like any other enterprises, can at their discretion choose a taxation system within the limits proposed by the current legislation. Hotels can use a simplified or general taxation system. These two systems have advantages and disadvantages. Individual entrepreneurs choose the most convenient system for themselves. Basically, they work on a simplified system, and this gives rise to a number of contradictions. If we compare an individual who works for an employer and an individual entrepreneur with the same income, then an individual who works for an employer has a higher tax burden.The article examined the simplified and general taxation systems. These systems have both advantages and disadvantages. Individual entrepreneurs choose the most convenient system for themselves, according to their activities. Choosing a simplified system, individual entrepreneurs have an advantage in choosing a group in which they will carry out activities. This allows you to regulate the amount of income, and subsequently the amount of taxes.

The tax burden for small and medium-sized businesses has always been a significant indicator of business activity state’s stimulation. It is especially important for the manufacturing sector, the development of which is strategically important in the context of the growing political crisis and global instability. In this paper, an assessment of the tax burden is carried out according to a sample of 61 companies - subjects of small and medium-sized businesses in the most developed territory of the country - the Ural Federal District. The sample includes only enterprises with a common tax system. This is necessary for the comparability of the authors' calculations with the official normative values of the tax burden established for the corresponding sub-sector. The main hypothesis of the study is that small and medium-sized businesses underestimate their tax burden by applying the general taxation system, and thus, the standard established by the Government of the Russian Federation is objectively overestimated, since it does not take into account the specifics of tax optimization of such companies. The study result is the identification of an absolute discrepancy between the actual values of the tax burden and the normative ones. Thus, 100 % of the sample companies have a lower level of it, while for medium-sized companies the gap is maximum and is 21 times. According to calculations, 60-70 % of the sample companies occupy the payroll fund in order to reduce the tax burden on insurance premiums. In conclusion, it is argued that it is necessary to review the state tax policy in relation to small and medium-sized businesses, namely, to create conditions for reducing tax time and in the conditions of the general taxation system.

Subject. The article considers special tax regimes in the Russian tax law, their evolution and current state, and ways to improve the tax system. Objectives. I focus on developing the theoretical and practical basis for reforming the tax system, considering to phase out the special tax regime in the tax regulation of ordinary business activities and to transfer to the general taxation system. Methods. The study employs methods of logical analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction. Results. Digital technology development made it impractical to maintain special tax regimes for tax and legal regulation of small businesses implementing ordinary activities. More favorable economic and financial environment for small businesses should be created within the general taxation system, through lower tax rates, up to a certain threshold. Special tax regimes should regulate specific activities, requiring a special approach to tax regulation and State control. The paper presents a set of practical measures to reform the design of the Tax Code. The offered structure of taxation creates a single tax legislation for the vast majority of business entities. Conclusions. The abolition of special tax regimes for taxation and regulation of small businesses and creation of a single tax system based on the general tax regime will simplify the Tax Code structure and make the tax system more transparent and consistent. The offered action plan will help make the abolition gradual and seamless. The findings can be used in legislative activities to reform the tax system.
