The purpose of this study has been to determine the role of operating subsidies in shaping the economic situation of agricultural farms in the years 2014-2019. Secondary data originating from the database of accounting books of farms aggregated by the Polish FADN were taken for our analysis. The data were processed through an analysis of the dynamics of changes in 2014-2019. The results showed that operating subsidies reached an average of between 41% and 282% of the value of income earned by family-owned farms. It was found that whether or not farms were able to earn a financial surplus without resorting to subsidies depended on the economic size of a farm. The smallest and the largest farms were unable to cover their costs and earn a profit without having access to additional sources of funds.

The main goal of the article is to identify the basic patterns of the formation of human capital (HC). An especially valuable and scarce resource of the modern economy is becoming a creative skilled worker capable of generating ideas, as well as creating and implementing new technological solutions and products. The development of the economy leads to significant transformations in the generation of resource potential, and changes in the role of individual resources. Human capital begins to play a dominant role in the resource hierarchy. It is the HC that sets in motion the production processes and determines the efficiency of using the entire resource potential. The methods of aspect analysis and of apperception used in this study made it possible to identify modern patterns peculiar to the formation of human capital in the economy, and to emphasize its objective importance and ability to significantly influence the development of society. During the research, the authors proved that human capital acquires the status of the main resource in the economy, the quantitative characteristics of the workforce capacity give way to the role of qualitative characteristics, and the development of STP requires a new employee formation to dominate the intellectual component.

The internet has revolutionised the world over the past half of a century, and the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to an increase in its importance. Although the global network brings with it more advantages than disadvantages, its existence also causes certain threats which have an impact on the life of Polish households and operations of Polish enterprises. This paper is theoretical and empirical in nature. Its aim is to explore the relationship between the internet and the COVID-19 pandemic, i.e. the time household members spend online. The impact of the two factors on survival in the market was examined in the case of enterprises. Moreover, the subjectively most important benefits and threats arising from the global network consumption in the opinion of the business entities mentioned above were illustrated. According to the respondents, facilitating communication is the main advantage of the internet (33.33%), whereas the spreading of hate on the internet is the major threat associated with its use (24.17%). The main benefit derived from the global network resources by enterprises is the possibility of obtaining raw materials from the most profitable sources (28.40%), whereas the major threat identified by them is that a negative opinion published on the internet can weaken the financial standing of a company or even make it disappear from the market (55.56%). Nearly 60% of household members found themselves spending more time online during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nearly 94% of the entrepreneurs who use the internet in running their businesses admitted that it helped them to keep their business in the market during the pandemic.

This study aimed to determine the scope to which budgeting is used as a management method in selected enterprises of the municipal sector in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship. The research goal was achieved through the following tasks: identification of the reasons for and methods of budgeting used in enterprises of the municipal sector in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship and determining the methods of controlling budget implementation in the examined entities. The use of budgeting in the practice of Polish municipal enterprises, as well as the knowledge of how to use this management instrument, seems to be relatively common. Nevertheless, there are still entities convinced of the insufficient amount of benefits resulting from budgeting and that these benefits may be lower than the labour input and costs incurred in budgeting. Research has revealed that budgeting is used primarily in medium and large companies with annual revenues of over PLN 50,000,000 and employing over 200 employees. An important feature that connects all entities using budgeting is the desire to reduce costs and improve financial results. The desire to increase internal control and make more effective decisions was the main reason for the implementation of budgeting in these enterprises. The dominant methods of budgeting are the top-down and incremental methods. Budget control is exercised by various people and units. Disclosed deviations most often relate to exceeding the planned level of costs and failure to meet the deadlines for renovation and investment tasks.

This paper re-evaluates the external aid effectiveness on school enrolment in Sub-Saharan Africa and provides a piece of evidence on the relationship conditioned on the prevalence of malaria and HIV/AIDS. A panel dataset from 2010 to 2019 for 42 countries in sub-Saharan Africa was modelled and analyzed using a dynamic panel GMM technique. The results suggest a statistically significant positive effect of external aid on school enrolment – primary, secondary and tertiary school enrolment. However, when correlated with the HIV/AIDS and malaria diseases, the relationship turned insignificant and at best negative. That is, in the case where malaria and HIV/AIDS diseases are evident, external aid does not have a statistically significant positive impact on school enrolment. It therefore means that the level of aid effectiveness on school enrolment is contingent on malaria and HIV/AIDS diseases in the region. Hence, although the attraction of more external aid can increase school enrolment in Sub-Saharan Africa, it will be effective only if the HIV/AIDS and malaria diseases are eradicated.

This article aims to assess the level and structure of household consumption and its social differentiation in the years 2010–2019 in terms of disposable income and consumption expenditure. The data on household budgets were sourced from Statistics Poland. The analysis revealed clear differences in the level and structure of household consumption observed over a ten year period. The share of expenditure on food, healthcare, as well as transport and communications is growing, while the share of expenditure on housing, clothing and shoes is decreasing. Meanwhile, the level of these changes varies across groups of households. The decreasing propensity of households to consume and the increasing level of income accumulation are evidence of an increase in their economic welfare. However, the deepening process of social polarization of income clearly perpetuates inequality in the level and structure of household consumption.

The introduction of a regulation requiring pension asset managers to provide savers with an estimation of pension benefits opened a wide range of scientific questions on the projection methods and estimation of input parameters. One of them is the estimation of life-cycle income for calculating expected contributions and the estimation of the benefit ratio at the moment of retirement. We present an estimation of life-cycle income functions for various age and educational cohorts influenced by temporary labor market shocks. By employing the resampling simulation method for incorporating macroeconomic shocks, we have shown that using longitudinal data on the income process from a large closed economy could bring valid results for a country with a small open economy as well where the longitudinal data on income processes of individuals are unavailable. Our findings could serve a practical use when pension or other social benefits tied to individual income should be modelled.

The study analyzes the performance of the Polish insurance sector between 2010 and 2019. The analysis was based on source materials from the Statistical Yearbook published by Statistics Poland (GUS), reports of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) and the Polish Chamber of Insurance (PIU). The main indicators describing the performance of the insurance market, including its concentration, number of policies, market structure, competitiveness, consumer behavior, and the financial performance of insurance companies were identified and analyzed. The strengths and weaknesses of the Polish private insurance market in the last ten years were determined. The main weakness was a considerable decrease in the sale of life insurance (branch I) policies, which was manifested by a steady decrease in gross premium, a continued decline in insurance density and penetration rate, deteriorating financial performance, and a decrease in the number of branch I insurance companies. Considerably better results were reported in the non-life insurance segment (branch II), where gross earned premium continued to improve and increased by around 64% over the analyzed decade. The non-life sector was also characterized by a steady improvement in density (increase of PLN 436), penetration rate (increase of 0.07%) and financial performance (net technical result increased by PLN 4.2 billion, net profit increased by PLN 1.5 billion).

This paper presents the typology of regions in developed countries. It includes illustrated scientific concepts of describing development of regional territorial systems based on local cores used as the basis for the typology. The article identifies typologies, highlighting reasons behind the attractiveness of individual regions for capital and labour; as well as links among economic operators. Typology methods for European regions are discussed, including typologies associated with transport accessibility, economic specialisation and the functional structure of regions. In most typologies, the basic developmental factors and solutions to practical issues are taken into account. A special role is played by typologies that are associated with economic growth and those that take into consideration a GDP per capita increase; along with the population density factor. Attention is drawn to the use of research on the typology of regions with regards to developmental planning, modelling and strategizing.
