METHODS OF ACCOUNTING FOR THE PROCESSES OF REPRODUCTION OF FIXED ASSETS OF THE ENTERPRISE AS A SOURCE OF INTERNAL INVESTMENT FOR THE ENTERPRISE

Abstract

The article is devoted to the research of current state of amortization policy in Ukraine. The article examines depreciation reforms carried out starting from 1997 up to the present time and makes the conclusion that they only brought the national depreciation policy closer to the countries with the market economy, but the real accumulation of funds for fixed assets was not achieved. Consequently, depreciation allowances are not only unable to stimulate the development of the economic entity, and are not able to even provide simple maintenance of basic (even manufacturing) facilities, which leads to their depreciation, and money for renovation or repair is not. In the work is stated that the use of a particular method of accrual of depreciation of fixed assets is appropriate to choose depending on the corrosiveness of the management functions, the objectivity, etc. The result will be to achieve the maximum effect from the application of the appropriate method of accrual of depreciation. The end result will be willingness of the subjects of management to the production of products (services). Examining current amortization policy, which was formed at the present stage of economic development in our state, continues to be ineffective. In our view, the current amortization policy does not fulfill its main function - motivation to the real accumulation of funds for renewal of worn and morally and technically outdated main assets of the enterprise. Today no company is not able during the regulatory period of service of fixed assets to offset their costs for their renewal, but for the need for renewal. We believe that the feasibility of choosing a method of accrual of depreciation must be carried out taking into account the correlation for the management functions, the objectivity and feasibility of use by a particular entity of management. Our proposed mechanism for selecting the optimal depreciation policy by the management of the enterprise, based on the real accumulation of "real" money can be a source of internal investment for renewal and renovation of basic assets of the state. The obtained results of the research is relevant in an environment where the deterioration of the basic equipment of enterprises is sometimes up to 90%, and the necessary funds for renovation and repair of the basic equipment of the enterprise.
