The article examines the current state of receivables management, identifies the main problems and suggests ways to overcome them, including accounting. The research methodology is based on general scientific methods of cognition: historical, logical, systemic, induction, deduction, analysis, synthesis; methods of statistical data processing, classification, grouping. Emphasis is placed on the growth of receivables and its consistently high share in the current assets of domestic enterprises over the past three years, which necessitates the development of measures to optimize its management. Modern software, including the subsystem "Accounting" "1C: Enterprise 8" does not contain a separate complex for accounting for receivables and the provision for doubtful debts. This determines the expediency of accrual of the provision for doubtful debts in the subsystem "Accounting" in the document "Debt Adjustment", which is designed to adjust the debt of mutual settlements with counterparties and is responsible for the function of debt write-off. It is proved that the process of receivables management in the conditions of digitalization can be optimized by integrating communication and network technologies. Integration processes provide the formation of a common information environment at the micro and macro levels with access to internal and external users of accounting information. It is advisable to integrate the function of information exchange with a single database of counterparties in modern software products for accounting automation. This will allow you to obtain information about counterparties, the existence of contractual relations, the state of receivables and the procedure for its repayment. The single database will provide an opportunity for information exchange between suppliers, customers, banking institutions, legal and factoring organizations, government agencies of the fiscal service and statistics. All these measures will optimize the process of managing receivables in terms of the use of information technology. The prospect of further research is to study the information support of receivables management in the application of blockchain technology.

This study investigated relationships among the market orientation of sharing economy business, marketing innovation, sustainable competitive advantage (SCA), and performance. Attempts are made to understand market orientation from cultural and behavioral perspectives to accelerate marketing innovation and identify measures for SCA and performance building. Frequency, reliability, validity, fitness, and path analyses were performed on 400 respondents, and a structural model was used. The results are as follows. First, functional coordination of the cultural market orientation of sharing economy business with consumer orientation significantly affected product innovation, but competitive orientation’s effect on product innovation was not significant. Competitive orientation and functional coordination significantly affected communication innovation, but consumer orientation’s effect on communication innovation was not significant. Second, market information generation and response to market information of behavioral market orientation of sharing economy business significantly influenced product innovation, but market information exchange’s influence on product innovation was not significant. Even though market information exchange and response to market information had a significant influence on communication innovation, the influence of market information generation on communication innovation was not significant. Third, both product and communication innovation of the marketing innovation of sharing economy business significantly influenced SCA. Fourth, the SCA of sharing economy business significantly influenced market dominating power.

This dissertation is devoted to assessing price adjustment clauses in European competition law. In practice, such clauses often require the disclosure of sensitive market information by competitors to a common contractual partner. This disclosure of information can be a form of hub-and-spoke collusion. The extent to which a price adjustment clause falls under the prohibition of cartels in Art. 101 of the TFEU, and thus whether an agreement without any contact between competitors is possible, depends in particular on the definition of a concerted practice. Whether accidental and unintentional participation in the exchange of information should also fall within the scope of Art. 101 (1) of the TFEU is subject to discussion. The author argues for a nuanced assessment of conscious and unconscious indirect information exchange.

A kutatás azt a kérdéskört vizsgálja, hogyan járul hozzá a bizalom a vállalatok piaci teljesítményéhez. A vállalatok azon képessége, hogy felhasználják a rendelkezésükre álló piaci információkat nehezen másolható, tartós versenyelőnyt biztosít. A marketingmenedzserek a piaci információk hitelességét nehezen tudják objektív módon megítélni, mivel azokat jellemzően mások gyűjtik és rendszerezik számukra. A szerző kutatásában a menedzserek vállalaton belüli és vállalaton kívüli piaci informálódást célzó kapcsolatai esetén modellezte és empirikusan tesztelte a bizalom hatásait. Eredményei szerint a bizalom a vállalaton belüli és vállalaton kívüli kapcsolatok esetében is fontos mozgatórugója az információfelhasználásnak, jóllehet közvetlenül nincs hatással arra. Minél jobban bízik a döntéshozó az információ forrásában, annál jobb minőségűnek fogja észlelni a tőle származó információt. Az információ észlelt minősége meghatározza, hogy arra támaszkodnak-e a vezetők a döntések meghozatalánál. Azok a marketingmenedzserek, akik képesek bizalmi kapcsolatok kiépítésére, szélesebb körű, hiteles piaci információkra támaszkodhatnak a döntéshozatal során, amely hozzájárul a vállalat piaci teljesítményéhez. ____ We have limited knowledge on the potential pattern similarities/differences of trust’s role that may exist in information use obtained through intra- and extra-organizational relationships. This study addresses this question by investigating how trust leads to information use. Data from 338 intra-organizational and a sub-ample of 158 inter-organizationaldyadic information exchange relationships showed that trust is an important driver of the utilization of market information in both cases. Trust has no direct relationship to information use, instead has a strong indirect effect through a mediator, perceived quality of information. The effects of trustontheuse of information obtained throughinter- and extra-organizational dyadic relationships proved to be similar.

Polymer microscopy involves multiple imaging techniques. Speed, simplicity, and productivity are key factors in running an industrial polymer microscopy lab. In polymer science, the morphology of a multi-phase blend is often the link between process and properties. The extent to which the researcher can quantify the morphology determines the strength of the link. To aid the polymer microscopist in these tasks, digital imaging systems are becoming more prevalent. Advances in computers, digital imaging hardware and software, and network technologies have made it possible to implement digital imaging systems in industrial microscopy labs.
