Summary of research and developments

 

Introduction

 

Company names, trade marks, service marks and names of places of an origin of the goods became  more and more important nowadays in Ukraine. Creation of equal conditions of managing for various types of commodity producers, introduction competitive rules in their activity and increase of responsibility for its results, is reason of necessity of  jural gear.

This role play  trade marks and brands.

 Urgency of a theme of final work

 Necessity for an intellectual property estimation usually arises at fulfilment of transactions of purchase and sale or at the conclusion of the licence agreement on the right of use of intellectual property, at definition of the size of indemnification of the damage caused to the legal owner by illegal use of its intellectual property.

      In practice of the enterprise the intellectual property is realised in the form of the account of non-material actives at company revaluation (an estimation of actions) more often. Intellectual property use in the authorised capital allows the enterprise and to its authors - to founders to get considerable practical advantages

 Prospective novelty of work

In estimation practice three classical methods are used: expenses, analogues of sales, under the income.

The first answers a question how many it is necessary to create an active, the second, being based on data of sales, allows define how many the given active in the market can to cost, the third method allows from calculations of present and future incomes of the enterprise (by capitalisation) to pass to enterprise cost.

it is supposed to carry out the comparative analysis of the given methods that will give the chance to make with the big confidence a choice in favour of one of them on the basis of concrete indicators and to develop the software for trade mark estimation of cost.

 

The purpose and research problems

Objective of this research is reception of results of comparison of efficiency of such methods of estimation of cost of the trade mark, as a method of expenses, a market method and a method under the income. For object in view achievement it is necessary to execute a number of problems under the analysis of methods and models of estimation of cost of the trade mark, working out of the software for realisation of the scheme and the analysis of efficiency [2].

 Practical value of results

The results received as a result of work can be used at decision-making on carrying out of estimation of cost of the trade mark. They can be applied for the purpose of decrease in risks and increase in profitableness to optimisation of an investment policy of the enterprises.

  The review of researches and workings out on a theme

 In modelling of estimation of cost of the trade mark in Russia are engaged: Skorobogatyh I.I., Vanifatova Maria Mihajlovna (the Director for trading researches of the company "Business of the Analyst"), Grjaznova Alla, Fedotova Marina, Eskindarov Michael and many other things

In Donetsk National Technical University intellectual property studying is engaged Gizatulin A.M. as in the given direction the former masters Bojko Elena Viktorovna, Mananji Pavel worked, etc.

 Own workings out and planned practical results  

The basic stages of process of an estimation

Carrying out of estimated works includes:

1) definition of object of an estimation;

2) formation of problems and the approach to an estimation;

3) definition of a kind of the estimated cost;

4) the conclusion with the customer of the contract on an estimation;

5) an establishment of quantitative and qualitative characteristics of object of an estimation;

6) the market analysis which the object of an estimation concerns;

7) a choice and a substantiation of a method (methods) of an estimation within the limits of each of approaches to an estimation and realisation of necessary calculations;

8) generalisation of the results received within the limits of each of approaches to an estimation, definition of total size of a project cost of an estimation;

9) drawing up and transfer to the customer of the report on an estimation. [10]

Approaches to a trade mark estimation

For today there are some approaches to an intellectual property estimation. Preferences at a choice of this or that approach to an estimation depends on presence of the necessary information, requirements of buyers or proprietors of objects of intellectual property, an economic situation at the moment of an estimation.

The market approach

 At the market approach the method of comparison of sales when the considered active is compared to similar objects of intellectual property or interests in these objects or with the securities provided with intangible actives which have been sold in the open market is used.

Basic elements of comparison which should be considered at selection and the analysis of transactions on sale is the following:

1. Structure and volume of the legal property rights to the intangible property, transferred in the transaction.

2. Existence of any special conditions and agreements on financing.

3. Economic conditions which existed in the corresponding secondary market during the transaction on sale.

4. Branch or business, where it was used (or will be used) the intangible active.

 

Conclusions

 

That is why estimation of cost of trade mark becomes more and more significant problem for both new created enterprises, and the old one. 

In spite of existence some various techniques of calculation of cost of the trade mark in the world, it is not obviously possible to choose one universal. All enterprises have own set of indicators of their financial and economic activity, own history and own possibilities.

As it is represented, any of the resulted techniques should not be used independently. Only the cost counted up by several techniques can yield true result.

       So we can tell that no one of techniques should not be used independently. We have to use few of techniques in order to get surefire results

In degree work the review of the basic existing methods of an estimation of the trade mark will be made, the conclusion is drawn on their efficiency and lacks.
