Abstract: The object of the study is transnational corporations. That is, companies that operate and have legal entities in various jurisdictions, which allows them to transfer the corporate tax base – profit to jurisdictions with minimal corporate tax. The transfer is carried out through the use of intra-group transfer prices. The subject of the study is current trends, ideas and international efforts in the taxation of multinational corporations. Both such trends themselves were investigated, and a computational experiment was conducted to assess the applicability of a possible methodology for calculating the profit tax of a subsidiary of such a corporation in Russia and the possible consequences for the budget from its application. The main conclusions of the study are as follows: at present, an international consensus is gradually being formed that the total profit of a transnational corporation should be distributed in a reasonable and fair way among the countries of its activities, an understanding of the need to consolidate such an order at the international level is being formed; however, no single understanding of approaches to taxation of transnational corporations, nor a single methodology capable of implementing them in practice. The scientific novelty is the author's reduction of the principle of tax neutrality from the classical principle of tax neutrality. In addition, the contribution of the authors is to demonstrate the fundamental efficiency of one of these methods by the example of calculating indicators based on open reporting data of a particular organization, as well as the consequences of using such a methodology for the budget.

Abstract: The subject of this research is the key element of ensuring the economic interests of company owners – the system of risk management and internal control. Special attention  is given to the methodology of risk management for the analysis of normative documents – laws, recommendations and standards, as well as the experience of their practical application. Comparative analysis is conducted on the corporate norms with the approaches in national strategic goal-setting with regards to national, economic and energy security, in order to develop the theory and practice of ensuring economic security of the economic entities based on the instruments devised within the system of national goal-setting. The object of this research is the economic entities and investment projects of fuel and energy complex. The scientific novelty lies in adjustment of the hierarchy of construction of challenges, threats and risks of the national strategic goal-setting in the sphere of economic security to solution of the tasks aimed at ensuring economic security of the economic entities. The relevance of the acquired results is substantiated by the difference of the authorial approach towards risk analysis in fuel and energy complex in the economic entities. Comparing to the approach of standards recommended by the economic activity regulators, which implies a single category of insecurities – “risk”, the distinction consists in implementation of the concept of hierarchical construction of the system of insecurities: challenge, threat, risk (concepts from the goal-setting documents on ensuring economic security of the state) in the new sphere of risk management of the economic entity. The authors’ original research indicate that introduction of the hierarchy of insecurities (challenges, threats, and risks) at the stage of risk identification allows simplifying and clarifying the procedure of risk assessment.

Abstract: The subject of this research consists in the goals of economic security, which the government realizes through changes of the mechanism of payment and order of calculation of excise tax on petroleum. The author examines the evolution of goal priorities in ensuring economic security, accomplishment of which the government sets during changes of excise taxation. Special attention is given to not only the structuring of conclusions, but also carrying out calculation experiment – computational experiment of extrapolative open data of specific oil refineries, which allow judging on particular quantitative impact on the amount of excise taxes of the latest taxation changes. The quantitative assessment of the impact of tax changes on the amounts of excise are received on the basis of conducting a computational experiment, the data for which is collected through the method of extrapolation. The main conclusion lies in the statement that priorities of the goals of economic security in excise taxation of petroleum products were changing in accordance with the changes of the economic and sociopolitical situation. The main priority consisted in the tax security. Since 2011, environmental and technological safety moved to the forefront. Since 2015, the priority of economic security shifted again towards tax security, followed by sociopolitical, foreign economic and technological securities.

Abstract: Relevance of studying the efficiency of government tax policy in oil and gas sector is substantiated by the portion of revenue generated by oil and gas industry. The subject of this research is the approaches, method and tools for analyzing the efficiency of tax policy in oil and gas sector. The object is the government tax policy in oil and gas sectors and the peculiarities between oil and gas industries. Special attention is given to the idea, implementation and interpretation in tax policy. The main research method is the general scientific analysis that allows determining the idea, implementation and as the key forms of existence of tax policy. The scientific novelty consists in using the approach on separate analysis of the idea, implementation and interpretation of tax policy, considering the cyclicity of these phases of its existence. The main conclusion of the conducted research lies in the thesis that an adequate analysis of the efficiency of tax policy requires taking into account the level of abstraction, sectoral specificity and dynamics of tax policy.
