The relevance of the study of the dynamics and structure of income of hunting farms in the region. It is determined that this study is one of the main tasks of the analysis of enterprise income. The classification and structure of incomes of hunting farms are given. The dynamics in the formation of the number of users of hunting lands of Zaporizhia region and their structure in terms of state enterprises, public organizations and private enterprises are analysed. There is a tendency to reduce the area of hunting grounds in state farms and public organizations and increase – in private enterprises. An analysis of the financial performance of hunting farms in general, which showed that the level of cost recovery income in the Zaporizhia region among other regions of Ukraine is one of the highest. A similar analysis in terms of different organizational forms of hunting management showed the lowest level of cost recovery for users who belong to other private and public hunting organizations. In 2019 it was 55.9 % compared to 63.8 % in the organizations of the Ukrainian Society of Hunters and Fishermen and 74.4% in the enterprises of the State Forest Agency of Ukraine. The structure of sources of income of hunting farms is given, among which the main ones are income from the sale of licenses for hunting animals, sale of shot cards for fur, sale of shot cards for game birds, sponsorship, and other income. The dynamics of the total number and number of captured wild animals by their different species is analysed. It is shown that the most significant share of income of hunting farms in Zaporizhia region is provided by the number of ungulates, which remains low in the region. During the period from 2015 to 2019, it decreased from 52 to 19 animals. It is established that the formation of income of hunting farms is influenced by the following negative factors: high level of poaching, shadow component of the economy, imperfection of the legal framework and statistical reporting, reduction of hunting grounds, reduction of ungulates, insufficient number of qualified specialists. The study found that the almost complete lack of state support for the hunting industry has led to a decrease in the interest of hunting land users in the efficient and rational use of natural resources of the region.

Indonesia has been an oil exporting country since 1965. Indonesia is currently in a period of declining in production but an increase in consumption has caused a trade deficit that continues to increase over time. Continuous production decline reflects limited discovery as a result of declining investment. The focus of the study is to evaluate variables affecting lifting, reserves and investment in oil and gas sector.  Several VAR or VECM panel models are built to provide empirical evidence. The results of the empirical study give a recommendation for both fiscal and monetary policies. The impact of interest rate on investment is less significant, but the exchange rate and inflation are higher on investment. Therefore, monetary policy should be directed toward controlling inflation and moderate intervention from Central Bank to retard depreciation of Rupiah. The success rate of exploration activities to increase reserves is proven empirically relatively low. The Application of more advanced technology supported by R&D is an important component of fiscal policy so incentives need to be added to these two things to increase the success rate of exploration activities. Misinterpretation that cost recovery does not increase lifting can be corrected because the response of lifting due to cost recovery is positive. Government should reconsider the policy of eliminating the PSC Cost Recovery system by considering empirical evidence from the results of this study which proves misconceptions about cost recovery. The PSC Cost Recovery system is recommended to be reinstated in the future with improvements.

Abstract The global energy mix and cost structure of the power industry are experiencing a redefinition. Many countries are revamping electricity-pricing systems to guarantee fixed-cost recovery, often by raising the fixed charge of two-part tariff schemes. However, a key assumption of two-part tariff schemes and associated fixed cost recoveries is that consumers discriminate fixed from marginal costs. We conduct a quasi-experiment with data from a major electricity price reform recently implemented in Spain and find robust evidence indicating that consumers fail to distinguish between fixed and marginal costs. As a result, policymakers are not achieving the goal of cost recovery

Abstract Globally, there are two types of petroleum fiscal system; the concessionary and the contractual petroleum fiscal system. The main differences between the two types of petroleum fiscal system is the ownership of the resources and some distinct fiscal terms. The contractual petroleum fiscal system specifies a cost recovery option and profit oil split unlike the concessionary petroleum fiscal system that allows the contractor to recoup his capital before payment of tax. This tends to increase the risk associated with the host government revenue as investment in the production of hydrocarbon is filled with uncertainties. There is a need to redesign the concessionary petroleum fiscal to enable it reduce the risk associated with the host government revenue by making the host government to earn revenue early from petroleum investment. This research therefore evaluated a hybrid petroleum fiscal system for investment in the exploration and production of hydrocarbon. The concessionary petroleum fiscal system was adjusted to include a cost recovery option. Petroleum economic model for investment in a typical onshore oil field was built using spreadsheet modelling technique with the fiscal terms in the hybrid petroleum fiscal system embedded in it. The cost recovery option and oil price in the model were varied between 0-100% and $20-$100 per barrel. The NCF, IRR and payout period of the investment were determined. It was observed that the lower the cost recovery option, the higher the host government revenue. From the profitability analysis of the investment in the hybrid petroleum fiscal system, it was observed that when the price of oil was $100/bbl, the NCF of the host government was $9146 and $8426.3 for 0% and 80% cost recovery option. The lower the cost recovery option, the higher the payout period and the lower the internal rate of return. Though lower cost recovery increased the host government revenue more but it may make the hybrid petroleum fiscal system unattractive for investment in periods of low oil price. Hence a higher cost recovery option was recommended for the use of this type of petroleum fiscal system.

A production sharing contract has been chosen by the Kurdistan Regional Government as supposedly the most appropriate contract model for the oil and gas resources of the Kurdistan Region, among several other forms of contract. In general, in terms of royalty, cost recovery, and sharing the residual sales as negotiated, the Kurdish model is similar to its foreign model, although the proportions are most likely to differ. The model of the Region specified 10 percent for the Royalty: Up to 45 percent for cost recovery, often between 7-9 percent of the company's share of the profit in the agreement. Investigating Deloitte reports and then comparing the 2017 to 2019 data shows the unstable output with a fair boost and stability at the later date as for 2017. A large contribution from the Kirkuk oil fields to the production of the overall region is noted until 16 Oct 2017. Around one-third of the revenues of oil went to the production oil companies, although as agreed for cost recovery, it is still less than 40 percent. The payment of the companies of Oil production could be explained as a collective sum between 9% of the profit oil and 25-28% of the sales oil's gross values! The cost recovery payment could not have been funded in the contract, which explains the region's claim about the debts of the companies, in its agreed manner.

Background: An ambulance is a vehicle designed to be able to handle emergency patients, provide first aid and carry out intensive care while on the way to a referral hospital. Ambulance operations require a large amount of funds obtained from APBD funds through tariffs that were passed through the DKI Jakarta Governor Regulation five years ago. For this reason, a new tariff is required to adjust to current conditions. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to calculate the unit cost of ambulance services in DKI Jakarta to be a consideration in the tariff setting policy in DKI Jakarta province. Research Metodes: This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach to obtain information about the unit cost of the Jakarta ambulance production unit. The method used is the calculation of real cost using the basis of the causes of costs. This research was conducted at the DKI Jakarta Emergency Ambulance using secondary data on investment costs, operational costs and maintenance costs in 2018. Results: The total cost of emergency ambulance in 2018 is known that the proportion of three cost components, namely operational costs, is 76%, followed by investment costs of 20% and maintenance costs of 3%. The calculation of the total cost of medical evacuation using the double distribution method is Rp. 98,915,016,805.00 divided by the number of medical evacuations in 2018 of 37,564 activities, the unit cost of medical evacuation for the AGD of DKI Jakarta Health Office is Rp. 2,633,215.00 without subsidies. APBD costs, while if the subsidy component is included in the calculation, the unit cost for one trip to the AGD of the Health Office is Rp. 604,071.00. This is still far above the current tariff of Rp. 450.00, so the cost recovery rate (CRR) is still below. 100%. Conclusion: From the three cost components consisting of investment, operational and maintenance costs,the largest proportion was operational costs at 76%. The Cost Recovery Rate has not reached 100% so that the existing rates have not covered the costs incurred.   Keywords: ambulance; price fixing; unit cost

Value-based pricing aims to optimize incentives for pharmaceutical companies making drug development investment decisions. To promote alignment of prices and value, this chapter recommends that Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers build value assessment into their coverage decisions. Before doing so, it explores alternatives that purport to make this alignment unnecessary. The first, cost-recovery pricing, reimburses drug companies for only their costs, rather than for value. While cost-recovery prices can be low, they reward high internal costs rather than better drugs. Prizes and subscription plans pay a lump sum, rather than paying for each treated patient, but they still require value assessment to set the size of the prize or subscription fee. Radical alternatives suggest having the government develop new drugs. Whether the government would be effective remains unknown. Nonetheless, it would, like private companies, have to prioritize investments, requiring something like value assessment to do so.
