Digital technologies and their impact on economic and social spheres in Ukraine

Abstract

Purpose. To determine the specifics of the impact of IT use on the economic and social spheres in Ukraine. To develop a mathematical model for evaluating and forecasting the impact of IT on these areas. Methodology. General and special methods of cognition were used in the research: mathematical formalization for evaluating and forecasting the impact of IT on the economic and social spheres, correlation analysis to establish multiplicative relationships of parameters and basic functions; comparison to establish the nature of the IT impact on the social and economic spheres; analogies to analyze the level of IT development in Ukraine and other countries; quantitative and qualitative comparison to analyze the level of social Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) use at enterprises by types of economic activity. Findings. It is proved that there are limiting factors to the growth of the positive IT impact, in particular the average level of income per capita. This is also evidenced by the comparison of agricultural and industrial regions of Ukraine, which indicated a significant gap in the introduction of IT in the countryside and the city. The weaknesses and successes of Ukraine in the implementation of IT are identified. The causes of hampering the positive impact of IT use on the development of social and economic spheres are indicated. A significant level of differentiation in the use of IT by business by types of technologies was proven. Originality. The peculiarities of the IT impact on the economic and social spheres in Ukraine are determined. The main feature is balancing between the development of IT technologies and social sphere and the state of stagnation of this process. A mathematical model for evaluating and forecasting the IT impact on the economic and social spheres has been developed; the intermediate results of its use have been given. Practical value. Recommendations for removing obstacles to the implementation of IT in Ukrainian social and economic spheres have been proposed.

Digital Tools for Accounting and Analytical Support of Enterprises: Innovation and Management Aspect

“…At the same time, as shown in Table 2, for Ukrainian enterprises, there is a long-term trend of reducing the number of corporate users of big data digital tools, which indicates insufficient management appreciation of the above advantages. Source: based on Silakova et al (2022).…”

“…The experience of using digital tools in the "big seven" countries for the formation of relevant reporting and the peculiarities of this process for Ukraine were studied by Storozhuk and Doionko (2019) and Silakova et al (2022). Petchenko et al (2023) pointed out the imperfections in the set of digital tools used in Ukrainian enterprises' accounting and analytical support.…”
