Therefore, one of the possible reasons for the termination of entrepreneurial activity starting in 2020 is the negative consequences of the pandemic, along with other possible positive and negative options for leaving the business. The purpose of the study was to assess the opinion of entrepreneurs who have ceased their activities about the reasons for this according to the results of surveys conducted in a number of countries in 2021. The objectives of the study were: formation of a database of initial data reflecting the opinions of retired entrepreneurs about the reasons for this; development of mathematical models describing the distribution of empirical data across different countries; evaluation of the values of indicators characterizing the exit from business for positive reasons, as well as negative reasons related and unrelated to the pandemic. The initial data were the results of a survey of entrepreneurs in 47 countries during the work on the Global Entrepreneurship Monitoring project. An assessment of four indicators characterizing the positive and negative reasons for the termination of their activities by entrepreneurs was carried out. Empirical data modeling based on the development of normal distribution density functions was used to evaluate the indicators. It is proved that the majority (58.1%) of all entrepreneurs who stopped their activities did so for negative reasons, but not related to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is proved that almost a quarter (23.7%) of all entrepreneurs who stopped their business were forced to do so due to the negative consequences of the pandemic. It is shown that only one in six entrepreneurs who stopped their activities had positive reasons for leaving their business in 2021. The obtained results make a significant contribution to the existing knowledge about the reasons for the termination of entrepreneurial activity in modern national economies.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126130245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, the production of microchips shows the highest growth rates, the sphere is directly associated with the fourth industrial revolution, so leading manufacturers are actively seeking either to increase market share or to gain leadership altogether. As a result, competition is intensifying both between individual companies and between countries. The purpose of the study is to determine the degree of influence of the shortage of semiconductors on the final cost of goods based on microchips. The main task is to analyze the dependence of the cost of video cards on the cryptocurrency exchange rate, the growth in demand for the extraction of which is one of the factors that influenced the semiconductor crisis. The article analyzes the current state of the semiconductor industry market, describes the key players, manufactured products by type. The chronology of events that led to the shortage of microchips – the main basis for any modern electronics – has been built. The article describes the main affected industries from the crisis in the semiconductor market, analyzes the consequences in quantitative and qualitative terms. Conclusions are drawn about the global role of cryptocurrency mining in the progressive shortage of microchips. In the course of the study, general scientific methods were applied, such as analysis, synthesis, comparison, as well as special methods (statistical-economic and econometric analysis). A paired linear regression model is constructed to identify the relationship between the Bitcoin exchange rate and the cost of popular video card models. As a result of the study, the relationship between the cryptocurrency exchange rate and the price of video cards was determined, and the stock index of the semiconductor industry was analyzed.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127446008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An erroneous definition of such parameters leads to an incorrect definition of the product, and, as a result, to a narrowing or expansion of the scope and geography of its circulation, an increase or blurring of the shares of entities operating in the markets, a false level of concentration, as well as a distortion of the criteria for delineating the competence of the EEC and national authorities in terms of abuse of dominance. This process can be much more complicated when it comes to goods that are subject to technical regulations, and due to their specificity, there are a significant number of types of goods that are generally similar in some respects, but differ in others. In this regard, within the framework of the study, an attempt was made to assess the possibilities of using certain methods of econometric modeling when establishing product boundaries for cross-border markets for such goods using the example of non-electric initiation systems. The research hypothesis is based on the following assumptions. First: technical regulations and standards not only act as market entry barriers, but also have a decisive influence on the definition of a market within which goods equivalent to each other circulate. Second: when determining the product boundaries of markets operating in the system of technical regulation, along with traditional and normatively fixed approaches, multiple regression models can be used and a correlation between the cost of a product and its characteristics, as well as empirical analysis data that allows segmenting goods according to specific boundaries, can be used.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116826927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The one of the mechanisms for achieving this may be the integration of a family-friendly policy into the corporate culture of the organization. Embedding such a policy in the social responsibility of business is considered as one of the competitive advantages of the employer’s brand and is especially relevant for key areas of the labor market. However, it should be noted that Russian business is at the beginning of this path. The implementation of such initiatives is not complex and systematic; the tools for creating and implementing such corporate cultures have not been formed. The purpose of the article is to develop proposals for the best employee family-friendly policy in the corporate culture of the organization that contributes to the implementation of value support for employees. To achieve this goal, on the rise of the case of a Siberian company, the task of systematizing the measures of the corporate demographic policy of the organization and analyzing its corporate culture based on a high policy focused on the family of employees is being solved. Based on the data obtained, a model for integrating family-friendly policies into the corporate culture of the organization. The authors develop specific measures that can be implemented at two levels of corporate culture – the level of cultural artifacts and the level of organizational values. It seems that the implementation of the developed model will lead to a more systematic and comprehensive nature of the implementation of the family-friendly policy in a particular Siberian organization, will strengthen its competitive advantages, and will also contribute to the replication of this aspect of social responsibility in Russian business.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116925013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The realization of bargaining power on the part of the consumer does not always manifest itself in the system of economic interactions as an action that violates competition, but often is identified as a mechanism of business strategies or a form of implementation of marketing competitive practices. There are types of markets and market situations in which bargaining power is essentially the central link of the transaction, regulating prices, volumes, contract terms and distribution of benefits. The purpose of the study is to consider the phenomenon of bargaining power, since the consequences of its manifestations form long-term losses for both the seller and the market as a whole. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve several tasks: to conduct a theoretical analysis of the concept of “bargaining power”, to determine the difference between bargaining power and market power and to identify factors affecting the formation and development of bargaining power. This article focuses on the study of the evolution of theoretical thought in the field of disclosure of the phenomenon of bargaining power. Foreign sources give some understanding of the subject of bargaining power, but the question of factors, research schools and evaluation indicators still remains open. Based on the available bibliographic content, the article presents a comprehensive analysis of the category of “bargaining power” in various conditions of interaction of agents, the established scientific directions of its study. The systematized factors influencing the negotiating power and the vectors of their impact reflect the accumulated author’s opinion of different research views. The article reflects the criteria characteristics of the manifestation of bargaining power in the market. Understanding the essence of the phenomenon under study can be useful for expanding the field of market analysis in cases of antimonopoly proceedings, preventing anticompetitive actions, forming an antimonopoly compliance system and preventing antimonopoly risks.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126223170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The following hypothesis is put forward and confirmed in the article: the system of key performance indicators can be effectively applied in the budgetary sphere, namely, in state (municipal) procurement, including to improve the competitive environment. To confirm the hypothesis put forward, the article investigated regulations governing state and municipal procurement and competition, studied the stages of digitalization, and also developed a system of criteria for the effectiveness of the state and municipal procurement system. The purpose of the article is to offer indicators of the effectiveness of purchases that affect the competitive environment. The objectives of this article: to study the legislation of the Russian Federation in the area under consideration; review the level of digitalization in procurement and competition; to propose two sets of indicators. The result of the study is a system of performance indicators in conjunction with digitalization through a regional information unified automated procurement management system and a portal for contract execution, taking into account the centralization and harmonization of forms.

Despite the lack of a unified position on the issue of its legalization and the legality of its use for settlements and transactions on a par with “real” money, more and more users, both among individuals and legal entities, are inclined to the prospects of cryptocurrency investments, as evidenced by the investment policy of a number of large Wall Street companies in 2020–2021. Thus, the relevance of the chosen topic is due to the need to analyze the dynamics of the young cryptocurrency market, which is developing according to its own laws, which differ from the mechanisms of functioning of traditional markets. The development of the cryptocurrency market is influenced by factors such as the number of investors and the degree of development of blockchain technologies. The purpose of the study is to identify the factors that control the dynamics of the cryptocurrency exchange rate and assess their impact on the current state of the cryptocurrency market. To achieve this goal, such scientific and practical research tasks were formulated as identifying factors affecting the popularity of cryptocurrencies in the world; describing the advantages and disadvantages of using cryptocurrencies; conducting a retrospective analysis of the world experience in regulating the cryptocurrency market and analyzing the dynamics of the value of cryptocurrencies, using Bitcoin as the first and most popular cryptocurrency in the world. Particular attention was paid to the problem of identifying the factor that influenced the downward dynamics of the value of cryptocurrencies since mid-September 2021. When writing the article, such methods as analysis of statistical information, analysis of the dynamics of individual elements of the market, a forecast based on consumer judgments, the study of global strategy directions, and others were used.

The purpose of the study is to create a “competition map” on the basis of which an entrepreneur entering the public procurement market will be able to determine in which industry and regional markets it is more efficient to work, taking into account the current level of competition. To achieve the stated goal, the following tasks were implemented: the results of the procurement activities of all Russian regions for 2020 and 2021 were analyzed in the format of a competition matrix: the participation of suppliers from each Russian region in procurements announced in each of the regions was evaluated, the probability of winning was determined depending on the combination participant-region”, as well as “region-object of procurement”. During the study, statistical tools were used to work with average data on competition and key factors and measurements that have a correlation.
