Prerequisites for innovative development of the economy

Abstract

The article focuses on the importance of innovative development of Ukraine's economy. It is emphasized that although the apopheme "innovative development" has become a stamp of public speaking in recent years, in reality it is only a flair that unsuccessfully covers disparate activities that a priori can not ensure success in this direction. It is emphasized that only a methodological substantiation of the possibilities of innovative economic development can ensure the development of its strategy, as the current disparate measures have not provided comprehensive success not only in Ukraine but also in post-socialist countries in general. On the basis of statistical indicators, there are doubts about the hopes for innovative economic development due to increased production of certain types of export-oriented agricultural products, as this is accompanied by population decline, mainly rural, and even the disappearance of rural settlements. After all, due to the concentration of exports mainly on a limited number of commodities - agricultural products and base metals - ie with low added value, foreign exchange earnings from which do not compare with the cost of imported innovative means of production, opportunities for innovative development are limited, as other companies mostly buy second-hand cars, such as cars, tractors, combines, metalworking machines, etc., as new ones are not available to most of them due to the price factor. The error of combining the accounting of antipodic categories on one account 13 "Depreciation (amortization) of non-current assets" is indicated, which to some extent led to the futility of calculations for the integrated implementation of cyber systems in all business processes (digitalization, artificial intelligence, robotics, development of circular economy and green energy, the use of new materials and passive monitoring of the growth of depreciation of fixed assets in almost all sectors of material production, as well as its statistical adjustment in the direction of leveling due to the roll of control over the reliability of reporting towards fiscal and the need to focus the efforts of the administrative community and scientists on the analytical understanding of the problem of innovative economic development in order to methodologically substantiate the real way of its implementation.
