SYSTEMIC APPROACH TO ECONOMIC ESTIMATION OF WATER RESOURCES OF UKRAINE AND ITS REGIONS

Abstract:
The questions of forming of cost of water resources of Ukraine in the territorial dimension are investigated in the article. Methodical principle of procedure estimations of cost are formed on the basis of accounting cost parameters of the state and regions for physical, market and additional features. According to the results, water resources of Ukraine can generate significant value, which differs considerably between domestic and world prices. Today their total value is most influenced by the physical characteristics that can be transformed in the context of the reform of the national economy. Regional features of distribution of cost of water resources of the state are investigated. In regional aspect, the cost is significantly differentiated, which gives the possibility of implementing specialized approaches to attract and use it to the dimension of water resources and business processes as well. The main feature of the regional distribution of the value of water resources is that it mostly decreases from the west to the south-east. Basic directions of use of cost characteristics of water resources are suggested.
Keywords: water resources, system approach, economic estimation, cost, regional dimension.
