Analytical aspects of assessment of energy dependence in petroleum-deficit countries (p. 14 - 21)
The article presents a methodical approach to assessment of a complete typical energy dependence for petroleum-deficit countries, which takes into account both dependence of the national economy on external supplies of petroleum and dependence on external supplies of light petroleum products and also efficiency of transformation of liquid hydrocarbons into motor fuel. The study, conducted on the basis of European countries, allowed determination of the level of their typical energy dependence. It was established that the majority of European countries are petroleum dependent. The article specifies the following types of dependence: on import of petroleum, on import of petroleum products and on two types of fuel and energy resources. However, in spite of deficit of own reserves of petroleum in European countries, some countries have sufficiently developed petroleum processing complex, which allows them not only satisfaction of own needs, but also export of petroleum products, which reduces their petroleum dependence. The article establishes that Ukraine depends both on petroleum supplies and on petroleum products supplies. The main reasons of high petroleum dependence of the national economy are insufficiency of own reserves of petroleum and outdated scheme of petroleum processing. The conducted clusterisation allowed splitting European countries into 7 groups. The results of clusterisation and study of the problems of the resource cycle of motor fuel of Ukraine helped to establish two possible variants of its development, which are: refusal to have own production of motor fuel or its growth and joining the group of countries that are small exporters. The article explains that development of the resource cycle of the motor fuel of Ukraine is possible only through establishing its production using already available raw materials.
Keywords: energy dependence, petroleum, motor fuel, resource cycle, import

Theoretical and methodical foundations of assessment of foreign economic security of Ukraine (p. 34 - 42)
The article considers problems of assessment of foreign economic security of a country. It proves that when solving the task of analysis, assessment and modelling economic security of a state, the central place belongs to the problem of selection of the system of criteria, which would properly reflect the existing state of economy of states in a specific moment of time. It considers properties of such criteria. It analyses essence of criteria of assessment of foreign economic security. It develops a structural scheme of assessment of foreign economic security of the state, in accordance to which it is offered to consider foreign economic security as a set of three components: trade, financial and investment, and banking and credit ones. It offers a methodical approach to assessment of foreign economic security of the state, which is based on calculation of an integral indicator of security as an arithmetical mean of its components. The proposed approached is used for calculation and analysis of the level of integral indicator of foreign economic security of Ukraine in 2010 – 2011 and study of the dynamics of the level of private indicators of its three components. It builds an equation of linear regression dependence of the integral indicator of foreign economic security of a country on time and it is used as a basis for calculating forecast value of the indicator of foreign economic security of Ukraine for 2012.
Keywords: foreign economic security, assessment, country, criterion, integral indicator

Role of the state in formation of the knowledge economy (p. 43 - 48)
The article analyses results of taking over the world of the model of information society, identifies urgency of consideration of information and knowledge as new critical resources of this model, objective necessity of adaptation of available theoretical and practical recommendations with respect to development of the knowledge economy to conditions of Ukraine, activation of participation of the state in this process. The article makes a conclusion that in the course of development of the knowledge economy the existing sectors (material, financial, information) should be provided with technologies capable of overcoming hazardous impact on natural environment and life of society. Technological modes of the domestic economy should be improved on the basis of the newest achievements of science and ensure synergy effect of their co-existence. The state bodies, which regulate development of new technological modes and knowledge economy, should take into account ambiguity of their impact on the life of society. Transition to new models of society provoke growth of load on the psyche of a human being. The state should control these processes, creating mechanisms of objective diagnostics and responsible impact on thoughts and behaviour of the population, especially that part of it, which is capable of developing and using its creative potential to the benefit of the nation.

Managing housing and communal services in rural districts: problems and ways of their overcoming (p. 68 - 73)
The article is devoted to the study of the sphere of housing and communal services in rural districts and identification of problems of its development. It provides a statistical analysis of the State Statistical Committee data, calculation of development indicators, and structural analysis and reveals main tendencies of development of the sphere of housing and communal services in rural districts of Ukraine. It proves that the modern state of housing and communal services in rural districts is characterised with absence of proper material, financial, staff and resource procurement, required for carrying out tasks and authorities of local self-government in this sphere. It uses results of the analysis to define that the sphere of housing and communal services in rural districts requires cardinal reformation, which would envisage, first of all, formation of its new structural construction that would have combined best achievements of foreign models of managing housing and communal services.

Modern tendencies and problems of development of the rural labour market (p. 136 - 141)
The article studies the modern state and problems of the labour market in Ukraine. The study is based on the fact that main engines of economic development are social groups that possess qualification and labour possibilities, social activity and mobility, capability to adapt to existing conditions and efficiently realise their possibilities. The article studies output factors that determine problem aspects of formation of the modern socio-demographic situation in Ukraine and create a threat to the prospects of stability of the state. It proves that the basis of formation of supply of labour in the labour market is the demographic situation in rural districts. The article provides recommendations on reduction of indicators of demographic reproduction and living standard of the population by all indicators for majority of the citizens, since the processes of demographic degradation, worsening of social conditions of reproduction, no doubt, would influence economic reformation and tie up rates of its realisation.

The article reveals theoretical and methodological foundations of the concept of the life cycle of systems. It allocates two main methodical approaches to assessment of the life cycle of a city as an open socio-economic system: Malthusian and functional. It identifies main parameters of assessment of the city life cycle. It allocates indicators of the first and second orders in Malthusian and functional approaches, which allowed determination of their basic structural differences. It offers to use the proposed methodical approaches for allocation and study of a fragment of the Kiev city life cycle. It identifies that significant change of functional direction of Kiev economy and structure of active economic potential of the city took place in the end of XX century. It substantiates a necessity of use of results of the functional approach of analysis of the city life cycle when developing strategic documents of development.

Modelling sustainable development of territorial production systems (p. 173 - 178)
The article provides an imitation model of stable development of territorial production systems, synthesised with the method of system dynamics, which, unlike the existing ones, has three basic levels – economic, ecological and social, takes into account cyclic fluctuations of external market situation in long-term and short-term periods, and is based on interrelation of stable territorial development with the innovation one. It substantiates structural and process approach to defining stable development, which lies in the basis of modelling and envisages establishment of a balance not only between static above-mentioned levels of territorial production systems, but also between those processes, which take place between these levels. It provides such a list of linear quantitative links between components of a territorial production system, so that in long-term prospective its development could be identified as stable with predominance of innovation production over resource intensive one. It makes a long-term forecast of development of the Dnipropetrivsk oblast on the basis of functioning of the proposed model.

Value and cost as categories: relation of notions, logistic aspect of comparison (p. 266 - 270)
The article analyses relation of cost and value notions as scientific categories. It considers issues of their objectivity, exposure to influence of regional factors, controllability and role when forming links. It defines logistics as a service, which creates value of a commodity, embodied in its cost. It states that in modern conditions the role of service logistics, which optimises control over human flows of various target orientation, grows. It adds that development of medical logistics acquires special significance from the social point of view as of today. It concludes that logistics unites social and economic approaches to the considered issues and ensures a more integral view on them. It summarises that such a situation results in holisticity of perception of categories by individuals and society in general.
Keywords: categories, value-characteristic, value-object, cost, cost chain, value of links, continuum, logistics

It proves that efficiency, as a category with polymorphic nature, requires to be studied on the basis of a system approach. This is used as a basis of perfection of classification of efficiency, which takes into account scales of activity of the system and elements of assessment. The article identifies main classification features of division of efficiency: the sphere of public life, type of activity, functional direction of activity, organisation structure, nature of effect, comparison base and the moment of carrying out calculation.

Modelling supply in Ukrainian financial market (p. 283 - 290)
The article states that despite the fact that financial market of Ukraine is insufficiently developed, volatile, disproportional, speculative and being significantly dependant on foreign capital and foreign economic dynamics, its progressive development is accompanied with growth of volumes of supply in it and appearance of its new modern forms, which are adequate to economic realities. The article offers a scientific and methodical approach to identification and assessment of supply in the financial market, which allows drawing justified conclusions with respect to its quantitative expression, which serves as a basis for modelling one of the main aspects of the study of the financial market situation – identification of balance parameters in it and also identification of factors that influence formation of this balance. It uses the conducted calculations for forecasting main directions and tendencies of development of the financial market in the context of assessment of supply in this market for the future period.

Empirical assessment of influence of changes of private real effective exchange rate (REER) of Ukrainian hryvna (UAH) on export and import flows in the context of types of economic activity (TEAs) (p. 291 - 303)
The article substantiates a necessity of analysis of influence of the exchange rate dynamics on volumes of export and import operations through the use of not aggregated but private (individual) indices of REER of UAH, built for individual goods and types of economic activity. Assessment of private REER of UAH by export and import baskets for the period from 2003 till 2011 allowed making a conclusion that strengthening of UAH before crisis had different influence on exporters and producers of products for the domestic market. Analysis of private indices of REER of UAH for individual TEAs of industry revealed that, as of the end of 2011, the products of both extractive industry and processing industry preserved the reserve of price competitiveness with respect to the year 2003. Reduction of REER in 2009 from 109.7 down to 93.3 showed that devaluation of UAH in the end of 2008 made 47.9% of Ukrainian products competitive if compared with pre-crisis 26.2% in the structure of export of goods. The article shows results of assessment of exchange rate elasticity of export of products of individual industrial TEAs, received in the result of realisation of econometric models of assessment of influence of UAH exchange rate changes upon volumes of export during the 2003-2011 period. Changes in the structure of import by directions, shown on the basis of analysis of data of expenses-production tables of Ukraine in main prices, helped to confirm factual dependence on import factors of production of some of the products that go to the domestic market. The conducted detailed analysis of exchange rate effects on different sectors of economy allowed allocation of TEAs groups, which are potentially interested in strengthening UAH and those that can obtain profit from devaluation. The article provides results of econometric modelling of influence of changes of private REER on volumes of import of products of individual TEAs groups, which gives an assessment of exchange rate elasticity of import. The article makes model calculations and shows that exchange rate effects significantly depend on participation of a branch in international competition, its orientation on foreign or domestic market, and scale of use of imported raw materials and components.
Keywords: private index of real effective exchange rate of UAH, exchange rate elasticity of export, exchange rate elasticity of import

Specific features of development of infrastructure of the Ukrainian culture: analytical review (p. 316 - 320)
The article reveals tendencies and gives assessment of the character of development of infrastructure of the state culture and reveals problems of its functioning. Activation of cultural processes in Ukraine resulted in changes in the network of the objects of culture. Network of cultural establishments of the club type, public and universal libraries, professional theatres and schools of aesthetic education have reduced during the period from 2005 till 2011. However, the network of museums and parks expanded significantly. The article offers to introduce a system approach to the functioning of infrastructure objects of culture, to bring them in correspondence with requirements of consumers; and to actively attract non-budget funds for support of existing and construction of new infrastructure objects.

Methods of calculation of economic efficiency of human life (p. 326 - 332)
The article contains calculation of the long-term economic efficiency of a new human life for Ukraine. The developed methods, unlike the existing ones, are realised in full volume with building age profiles of state expenditures, with consideration of the death-rate factor, indexation and discounting and also the effect of de-shadowing of economy. The article justifies that the maximum possible rate of growth of healthcare expenditures, which provides the break-even of a citizen, constitutes 7.15% (during the nearest 20 years with preservation of the growth rate of 6% after 2030). The offered approach is a tool for formation of priorities in state expenditures on healthcare and also demonstrates possibilities of a better decision making outside the healthcare sector.

Accounting and reporting in small businesses: managerial aspect (p. 338 - 344)
The article states that development of small businesses envisages formation and use of a wide spectrum of economic information for providing managerial structure with timely and quality information, which requires creation of a system of managerial accounting and reporting, which should not contradict to the principle of expenses – benefits relation, when expenses on introduction of such a system would exceed the effect obtained from its functioning. It adds that the main requirements of building the system of managerial accounting in a small business should be simplicity, accessibility and clearness. The author studies interconnection of the system of managerial accounting in small businesses with the system of book-keeping and reporting on the basis of a simplified mechanism of accounting of economic operations. The article proceeds that formation of a limited volume of information in the system of accounting and analytical provision does not give a possibility to carry out timely and quality control and analysis of financial and economic state of activity and negatively influences planning and forecasting activity of a company in general. The article marks main components for formation of a subsystem of managerial accounting and reporting, develops methods of formation of reporting in the system of managerial accounting in a small business and also analyses units of managerial information in accordance with requirements of users and develops an organisational scheme of formation of economic information about production, realisation and financial flows in the system of accounting and analytical provision of activity of a small business (using example of an industrial enterprise).

Modelling and analysis of trajectories of economic development on the basis of discrete Solow model (p. 353 - 362)
The article uses isomorphism of the discrete variant of the Solow model and classic logistic mapping to obtain the following: analogous to the theory of orthodox logistic mapping (with one r-parameter) for its modification, which is characterised by two numeric parameters r and a, it builds a map of dynamic modes on the plane of mentioned parameters; areas are shown where one can observe various behaviour of the resulting Xn+1 value, including the area of determined chaos; bifurcation diagrams of modified logistic mapping are provided: their comparison with classical data testifies to appearance of a more complex structure of immixture (so-called window-strips are not available). The article studies influence of delay upon trajectories of economic development, based on the use of logistic mapping in the form of Henon algorithm. It empirically finds the numeric value b=0,15 of the Henon constant for modelling non-linear dynamics of an economic system (in literature b=0,3).
Keywords: capital of economic system, Solow model, computer modelling, generalised logistic mapping, modified Henon algorithm, non-linear economy

Investment security of Ukraine: dynamics and forecast (p. 363 - 367)
The article considers dichotomy of the notion of security in its terminological application to investment processes. The author uses comparison and critical analysis of existing generally accepted approaches for offering own definition of the “investment security” notion and own approach to its assessment, based on structural consideration of investment security through components of the investment climate (investment potential, investment activity, investment risks) and on application of the cluster analysis and rating. The article considers dynamics of investment security of Ukraine. It graphically traces influence of the state policy in the country upon dynamics of investment security and gives a forecast of development of the phenomenon for the next year.
Keywords: assessment, security, investment security, dynamics.

Methods and models of assessing and forecasting needs of economy in graduates from higher educational establishments (p. 368 - 375)
The article states that successful realisation of state policy in the field of higher education requires identification of requirements of the labour market in specialists of relevant categories and directions of training. This needs preliminary forecasting both market demands and supplies, which are formed with graduates of higher educational establishments. Forecasts of labour market demand and education services market supply would allow better balance of the country economy and increase of quality and justification of regulatory measures.
Keywords: state education policy, training of specialists, forecasting demand, needs of economy
