Accounting for non-current assets in budgetary institutions: problems and solutions

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to identify problematic aspects of accounting for non-current assets and to suggest their solutions using information technology and documentation. Research methods. The methodological basis of the study is a systematic approach to the study of the processes of reflection of non-current assets in the accounting of budgetary institutions. The epistemological method is used to clarify and deepen the meaning of the concept of "non-current assets". Analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, idealization and generalization, as general scientific methods of cognition, are used to develop the basic principles of the theory, methodology and organization of accounting for non-current assets. Bibliographic and bibliometric types of analysis provided identification of trends in the theory and methodology of accounting, as well as problematic aspects of non-current assets. The method of formalization made it possible to make suggestions on how to solve the problematic aspects of accounting for non-current assets. Research results. Identifying of problematic aspects in the accounting for non-current assets of budgetary institutions allowed to offer options for their solution, which will deepen the informativeness of accounting and reporting data and ensure their accuracy, reliability and comparability. Improving the accounting aspects of the reflection of non-current assets will also help increase the effectiveness of internal control (including inventory), and thus their management in budgetary institutions. Scientific novelty. Theoretical and practical provisions for accounting for non-current assets of budgetary institutions are improved. Ways to improve the accounting and internal control of non-current assets for the needs of management in budgetary institutions are proposed. Practical significance. In order to bring the national accounting system in line with international standards and in accordance with the needs of management, it is proposed to improve the reflection in the accounting of non-current assets of budgetary institutions through the use of information technology and documentation.
