Digitalization and ITS relationship with innovative development of the economy

The study is based on a systematic approach to the conditions for the formation and evaluation of the innovative development of the economy. A methodological approach to the innovative development of the economy was developed based on the construction of forecast models that reflect the share of shipped innovative products (foodstuffs), the export of agricultural products and food products, which contribute to the maximum profit of innovatively active organizations and the gross domestic product (GDP) of the agro-food sector. The modern mechanism for increasing the competitiveness of industrial enterprises in the European market is based on an innovative digital model of economic development, the activation of innovative and investment activities, the constant adaptation of enterprises to the conditions of the internal and external environment, taking into account risks and new conditions of digital transformation. It allows you to conduct a comprehensive trend analysis using the selected estimated indicators and taking into account various factors, which allows you to identify reserves for activating the innovative development of the national industrial complex in the context of the formation of the digital economy, in conjunction with the expansion of the use of information and communication services, to justify the areas for the development of innovative activities under conditions of digital transformation of production. The distinction lies in the development of the theoretical and methodological basis of the relationship between the digital transformation of the economy and the innovative development of industry, including the agri-food sector, and in the development of predictive trends.

Research on the Influence of Mixed-Ownership Reform on Exploratory Innovation of SOEs: The Mediation Effect of Agency Conflict and Financing Constraint

State-owned enterprises (SOEs) are the leading force in the national economy. The main goal of mixed-ownership reform is to enhance the SOEs’ independent innovation capability, thereby bringing high-quality development of the national economy. Based on the baseline regression and mediation effect model, this study explores the impact of mixed-ownership reform on exploratory innovation of SOEs from ownership structure adjustment and control rights allocation. The results show that the diversity of mixed shareholders, the depth of mixed equity, and the control of mixed equity significantly increase the SOEs’ exploratory innovation investment. And the shareholding ratio of heterogeneous shareholders has a differentiated influence on exploratory innovation. The mediation effect test indicates that the promotion effect of mixed-ownership reform of SOEs in the ownership structure dimension is achieved by reducing the second-type agency conflict and easing the financing constraints. In contrast, the promotion effect in the control rights allocation dimension is achieved by lowering the first-type agency conflict. The findings demonstrate that the mixed-ownership reform have positive effect on the SOEs’ exploratory innovation investment, and the different dimensions of mixed-ownership reform have disparate function routes to exploratory innovation. This study provides guidance for SOEs on how drive national innovation development through mixed-ownership reform. SOEs should guarantee the rights of non-state-owned capital to hold shares and appoint directors, improve internal governance mechanisms, so as to accelerate the development of exploratory innovation activities.

Інформаційне забезпечення управління інноваційною діяльністю

The effectiveness of innovation is due to the quality of information management. Therefore, adequate accounting support of innovation activities and information support for the evaluation of its results is an important factor in the development of innovation activities. The purpose of writing the article is to study the essence of the terms "innovation", "innovation activity", "innovation costs" for the purpose of information support of management of innovative activity and their reflection in the system of accounting. Approaches to understanding the term "innovation" as an economic category and as a category of accounting are generalized. It is determined that there is ambiguity in the interpretation of innovation activity in legislation and professional literature. It is substantiated that the normative definition allows the separation of accounting objects both in terms of innovation processes and their results, and should be the basis for building a system of accounting for innovation activities of economic entities. It is proposed to clarify the term "innovation" by replacing the term "using" with the term "capitalization". It is proved that from the point of view of information support of innovation activity management, it is necessary to single out the objects of accounting observation both in terms of the innovation process and its results. The grouping and analysis of approaches to the reflection of innovation costs in the accounts was carried out. It is substantiated that the costs of innovation activity should be differentiated in the accounting according to the capital or current nature. The results of innovation activities, which are commercialized and according to which the innovative product is obtained, it is advisable to take into account as part of non-current tangible assets. For enterprises specializing in the implementation of innovations, purchased non-current tangible assets held for sale and support of use from customers should also be recorded in special sub-accounts of the second order 12 "Non-current tangible assets are for sale".
