Research of functional changes in foreign exchange rate EUR/ UAH under conditions of economic transformation in Ukraine
The article substantiates the need to conduct research into the factors changing the exchange rate between the euro and the Ukrainian hryvnia (EUR/UAH) due to the fact that, in the last few years, the devaluation of the Ukrainian hryvnia has destabilised the economic environment for entrepreneurship. Thus, this work analyses the determinants of the exchange rate in Ukraine; the investigated correlation between the EUR/UAH exchange rate and a set of factors confirmed that changes in money supply and government debt correlated tightly with rises and falls in the EUR/UAH exchange rate. By contrast, other factors (GDP, budget deficit, export operations, the positive balance of payments, inflation, public debt) have statistically insignificant correlations with the exchange rate and are not included in the regression model. It is suggested to harmonise monetary policy with fiscal policy, which has the greatest influence on the exchange rate, as well as to analyse the connection between these policies and the country’s foreign trade policy, which will allow the exchange rate to be stabilised and ensure suitable conditions for the economic growth of foreign economic entities
Rachunkowość instrumentów finansowych w procesie zarządzania ryzykiem walutowym – praktyka polskich i ukraińskich przedsiębiorstw
Na podstawie studiów literaturowych wskazano znaczenie instrumentów finansowych w procesie zarządzania ryzykiem walutowym oraz sformułowano tezę opracowania, zgodnie z którą zastosowanie instrumentów finansowych w celu zabezpieczania się przed ryzykiem walutowym wpływa na wyniki działalności gospodarczej przedsiębiorstw, eliminując i zmniejszając negatywny wpływ zmian kursów walutowych. Celem artykułu jest zaprezentowanie możliwych do praktycznego zastosowania metod zarządzania ryzykiem walutowym oraz omówienie doświadczeń polskich i ukraińskich przedsiębiorstw handlu zagranicznego w tym zakresie. Podjęto również próbę ukazania wpływu zastosowania kontraktu forward na wyniki przedsiębiorstwa ukraińskiego i spółki polskiej. Wnioski wynikające z przeprowadzonego badania dowodzą zasadności stosowania instrumentów finansowych jako efektywnego sposobu zabezpieczania się przedsiębiorstw przed ryzykiem walutowym. Przede wszystkim w przypadku dużych zmian kursu walutowego zdecydowanie opłaca się skorzystać z zabezpieczających instrumentów pochodnych

The article substantiates the need to carry out a research of the factors affecting the change in the exchange rate of EUR/UAH due to the fact that the devaluation of the Ukrainian hryvnia in the last few years destabilizes the economic environment of entrepreneurship development. Thus, this work analyzes the determinants of the exchange rate in Ukraine, and the investigated correlation between the dependence of the EUR / UAH exchange rate on a set of factors confirmed the tight correlation between the change in money supply and government debt and the rise / fall in the EUR / UAH national currency. Instead, other factors (GDP, budget deficit, export operations, the positive balance of payments, inflation, public debt) have statistically insignificant correlation to the studied indicator and are not included in the regression model.

Nowa era geologiczna “antropocen” jako wynik ludzkiej działalności gospodarczej
The impact of human economic activity on the environment and its irreversible changes. An interdisciplinary approach to the development of the economic system has been used in this paper due to the fact that the subject of the study goes beyond the functional economic sciences, and economics in general. The study is aimed at investigating the interaction of man, as an economic agent, and the environment. It has led to the study of research papers devoted to natural science, in particular, to changes in geological epochs, sustainable development and economic processes from the position of their influence on the environment. This allowed us to synthesize new economic knowledge about the importance of economic activity in the formation of the new geological epoch, “Anthropocene”. Based on the results of the study, the influence of human economic activity on the environment in the light of the geological, technocratic and economic development of society has been proved. The scientific results which were obtained can be used in reforming national economic systems by adapting them to leading world concepts on sustainable development.Uzasadnienie wpływu ludzkiej działalności gospodarczej na środowisko i jej nieodwracalną transformację. W pracy wykorzystano interdyscyplinarne podejście do rozwoju systemu gospodarczego. Wynika to z faktu, że przedmiot badań wykracza poza funkcjonalne nauki ekonomiczne i ekonomię jako całość. Celem badania jest zbadanie interakcji człowieka jako czynnika gospodarczego z otoczeniem, które określiło badanie prac o tematyce przyrodniczej, w szczególności zmiany epok geologicznych, zrównoważonego rozwoju i procesów gospodarczych z punktu widzenia wpływu na środowisko. To pozwoliło zsyntetyzować nową ekonomiczną wiedzę o znaczeniu działalności gospodarczej w tworzeniu nowej ery geologicznej, antropocenu. Zgodnie z wynikami badań wpływ działalności gospodarczej człowieka na środowisko jest uzasadniony przez pryzmat rozwoju społeczeństwa geologicznego, technokratycznego i gospodarczego. Uzyskane wyniki naukowe mogą być wykorzystane w reformie krajowego systemu gospodarczego, jego adaptacji do wiodących na świecie koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju
