The article considers the issues of impact of differentiation of the development of regions on economic growth of the country. The hypothesis of ambiguity of this interaction is checked against actual data; on the one hand, the inequality of levels naturally stimulates the need for economic growth, on the other hand, the excessive differentiation of territories creates the situations of social tension, as well as forms the negative trends of capital and labor migration, followed by an adverse effect on the parameters of economic development. The paper attempts to define for a particular territory whether the differentiation is a negative or, on the contrary, a motivating factor. The hypothesis is checked on the basis of calculation of the differentiation level of social and economic development of municipal formations of the constituent entities via the appraisal of concentration of gross regional product production over the territory of the country.

On the basis of econometric modeling a conclusion about low efficiency of state policy to promote small business in Russia has been made. The elasticity of the level of entrepreneurial activity in terms of state support does not exceed 0.3. The ways to improve efficiency include the replacement of budget subsidies by the expansion of tax benefits and the volume of government purchases from small businesses. The combined effect of these measures covers various aspects of business activities, which will increase the return on fiscal measures to support small businesses.

The aim of the study is formation of the measures of fiscal expansion improvement on the basis of the analysis of their current problems and approaches of usage for the purposes of spatial development of the country. The article appraises the core role of tax regulation; fiscal expansion is the crucial part of it. The paper considers two most important ways of spatial development of the country (creation of effective regional and interregional areas of innovation-oriented priority development and softening of social inequality of the regions, human capital investment) and reveals the issues of their modern realization. The article presents the analysis of the measures of fiscal expansion aimed at provision of the two main ways of realization of spatial strategy of Russia. The article offers the system of fiscal expansion, with both vertical directivity, aimed at the growth of entrepreneurial, innovative, technological and other activities, and with horizontal directivity related to economic leveling of the territories. As the first type of fiscal expansion, the author suggests defining a sequential and transparent gradation of taxpayers with marking out and support with fiscal expansion (regional and local taxes) of the profitable entrepreneurs and companies, which invest in technological, social and other development of the territories. The second horizontal type of fiscal expansion is based on the system of social and economic zonation, with marking out of the ‘peripheral’ territories, which are to be developed, among other things, at the expense of exemptions and preferences of federal taxes.

This article presents a cluster analysis of the value of organizations in the agricultural sector of the Russian Federation, calculated by discounting cash flows income approach. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that the value indicator is insufficiently studied by the factors affecting it and, therefore, it is necessary to take a comprehensive approach and apply statistical analysis methods to the valuation of the enterprise. Clustering will determine the type of distribution characteristic of the value indicator, as well as confirm or disprove the hypothesis that the analysis of the company will be divided into three groups: with an inflated value; with a value close to the balance sheet and with an understated estimated value. The results obtained can be the basis for the factor analysis and the construction of the integral index of assessing the value of companies of agriculture of the Russian Federation.

The transition from administrative command system of management to market relations stipulated the importance of bankruptcy development in our country. Work in this field is connected with the difficulties arising at the intersection of bankruptcy legislation, arbitration proceedings, civil and labor law and accounting legislation.

Modern processes of interaction are characterized by a significant degree of tension and versatility. This is most evident in the interaction in the cultural and ideological of international relations. In the context of the relevant processes, the processes of contact between Russia and the United States of America are of considerable interest. Despite the diametrically opposed aspirations, these social systems in their detailed analysis reveal many common features. Consistent disclosure of the relationship between these elements forms an objective conclusion about the proximity of the analyzed social systems.

The modern market economy is not just complex, dynamic, non-equilibrium, but also probabilistic system. The obvious analogy between the many-agent economic and many-atom physical systems is used to develop probabilistic economic theory with the help of formal methods and approaches of theoretical physics. This theory is constructed on the basis of the five general principles, which determine the main driving forces in markets and principal features of market structures and dynamics.

This study examines the factors behind the development of a car service station. In the conditions of qualitative transformations of the economy in the Republic of Tajikistan and the entire system of public relations, the problem of creating modern car service stations is of particular relevance. It is organically connected with the main tasks facing automobile transport enterprises and is a significant component of the efficiency of economic activity. Currently, car maintenance stations have to resolve contradictions caused by imperfect structural relationships. There is a high degree of equipment depreciation, a shortage of own sources of financing, unavailability of loans due to high fees for their provision, low purchasing power hinders the demand for the sale of services. In the current situation, car service stations are seeking internal capabilities, optimizing their use. The leading place is occupied by the problem of effective use of potential. The decision of this problem depends on the definition of controlled factors affecting the activities of the car maintenance station, the development of recommendations for their restructuring, improvement of the internal structure and control mechanism. The crucial factor here is the management of factors, which largely determines the strategy and ways for the development of a car service station.
