Abstract

Specific financial, economic, investment and cost characteristics of research and development works as an object of valuation do not allow for the use of standard tools to measure their value, and therefore the challenge is to develop methods and models that allow for the correct measurement of R&D value, taking into account all their inherent features. The article discusses the experience of the UK, India, Australia in the field of evaluation of research and development works. The article performs a comparative analysis of the standards governing the accounting evaluation of R&D, discusses the current trend towards convergence, the need and the possibility of using the tools of valuation in terms of research and development works in the presence of an active market for R&D. The following tasks were posed and solved in the article: 1. The article disclosed the essence of research work and highlighted two main stages; 2.
