Zakat is a mechanism of worship to help those in need. In education sector, among the issues faced by the asnaf is that there are still many students who are belong to fakir and miskin group. At the same time, the number of those who are left out from receiving zakat assistance are still happening. In addition, the lack of effective asnaf data recording has becoming the problem in the distribution of aid. Based on these problems, the purpose of this study aims to identify the definition of asnaf who are eligible to receive zakat education aid as well as the form of aid offered by ZPP as zakat institution in distributing zakat education fund to asnaf each year. Furthermore, this study also discusses the steps taken by the ZPP in carrying out the obligation to distribute education’s zakat funds to the asnaf in a fair and transparent manner. The data was analyzed using a qualitative research methodology that collects data through library research and field research using unstructured interview methods. The finding shows that the distribution of zakat education aid was among the largest distributions in the ZPP. There are two forms of education zakat aid distributed by ZPP, which is distribution to institutions and individuals. In order to realize that aspiration, ZPP has made various transformation and diversification in the distribution of zakat education aid such as the use of website, the establishment of asnaf track squad and joint venture programs with other agencies, especially for fields which is required by Muslims such as engineering and accounting. The improvement on this distribution system is important to ensure the role of zakat in education is achieved in line with the objective of zakat ordainment to the Muslims. Abstrak Zakat merupakan satu mekanisma ibadah bagi membantu golongan yang memerlukan. Menerusi bidang pendidikan, antara isu yang dihadapi oleh golongan asnaf adalah masih ramai pelajar yang tergolong dalam kalangan fakir dan miskin. Pada masa yang sama jumlah mereka yang masih tercicir daripada menerima bantuan zakat juga tetap berlaku. Selain itu, perekodan data golongan asnaf yang kurang efisien juga menjadi antara masalah yang dihadapi dalam penyaluran bantuan. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut, kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti pendefinisian asnaf yang layak untuk menerima zakat pendidikan serta bentuk-betuk bantuan yang ditawarkan oleh Zakat Pulau Pinang (ZPP) selaku institusi zakat dalam mengagihkan dana zakat pendidikan kepada golongan asnaf setiap tahun. Kajian ini turut membincangkan langkah-langkah yang dilakukan oleh ZPP dalam menjalankan kewajipan mengagihkan dana zakat pendidikan kepada golongan asnaf secara adil dan telus. Kajian ini menggunakan metodologi penyelidikan kualitatif dengan mengumpulkan data melalui kajian kepustakaan dan kajian lapangan yang menggunakan kaedah temubual tidak berstruktur. Hasil kajian mendapati agihan zakat pendidikan merupakan antara agihan terbesar di ZPP. Terdapat dua bentuk agihan zakat pendidikan yang dilakukan oleh ZPP iaitu agihan kepada institusi dan individu. Bagi merealisasikan hasrat tersebut, ZPP telah melakukan pelbagai transformasi dan kepelbagaian dalam agihan zakat pendidikan antaranya seperti penggunaan laman sesawang, penubuhan skuad jejak asnaf dan program usahasama bersama agensi lain terutama bagi bidang yang diperlukan oleh umat Islam seperti kejuruteraan dan perakaunan. Penambahbaikan dalam sistem agihan ini adalah penting bagi memastikan peranan zakat pendidikan tercapai selari dengan objektif pensyariatan zakat kepada umat Islam.

The development of multi-vector economy, effective implementation of reforms in this sphere as well as improvement of living standards is impossible without a qualitative operation of financial controlling services, especially at agricultural enterprises. However, the lack of effective state support in this area as well as professional financial controllers in the agrarian sector had a negative impact not only on the resource provision, but also the whole profitability of enterprises in the industry. Therefore, at the present stage of development of Ukrainian agrarian sector the topical issue is definition of common principles for the implementation of effective financial and credit policy at the agricultural industry of the economy. Given the topicality of the above issue and lack of its study, the main purpose of this Research is a determination of the role of financial controllers staff in the formation of the credit policy of agricultural enterprises and measures for its enhancement. As a result of the analysis, we have found that financial controlling together with all its components provides for timely reflection and provision of information on financial and economic activities to external and internal users by experts for the purpose of further planning and implementation of their management decisions. In addition, taking into account the above approach, we have identified the main stages in the formation of the credit policy at agricultural enterprises with the participation of controlling services staff. They include both financial controllers’ analysis of an agricultural enterprise activity on the possibility of its crediting and scientific and practical approaches to the implementation of specific credit policies. We also have found that, first of all, it is necessary to involve financial controllers in all micro and macro credit development processes in order to increase the role of controlling services in the formation of the credit policy at agricultural enterprises. The above approach is comprehensive and provides the conditions for a differential study of the problem of the effective financial controllers’ performance at enterprises of the agrarian sector of the economy at both national and regional levels.

Introduction. Globalization processes have a significant impact on the global market environment, encouraging enterprises to find ways of improving their performance for the long period of time. Logistics management is one of the prerequisites for this. Using of logistics management elements at agricultural enterprises activities, which operate due to specific objective constraints (cash gaps associated with the duration of agricultural production; high material consumption; low profitability of many areas of crop and livestock) becomes important. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to investigate the essence of logistics management and its role and significance for agricultural enterprises activities in Ukraine. Results. The article substantiates the need to use logistics management in the activities of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine. The approaches of domestic and foreign scientists to the definition of «logistics management» term are studied. The main aspects of the category are singled out. The definitions are systematized according to three approaches (adaptive, optimization, systematic). The role of logistics management in domestic agricultural enterprises activities in accordance with the selected approaches is investigated. In the context of adaptive capacity of logistics management, there was considered the level of transport support of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine, which indicates the unsatisfactory state of logistics. The ability to regulate the level of material support of economic activity in accordance with the needs of the production process is presented as an optimizing function of logistics management. According to the system approach, the maximum interconnection of all components of the logistics system can be achieved through the use of modern technologies in the activities of farmers. According to the system approach, the greatest interconnection of all components of logistics system can be achieved by using the modern technologies in agricultural enterprises activities. Conclusions. Logistics management is able to significantly increase the economic efficiency of enterprise compared to classical management methods due to high adaptability, optimality and consistency. The efficiency of logistics activities at enterprise can be manifested: in optimal organization of supply; in production and sales activities of the enterprise; in reducing logistics costs; in optimization of material, financial and information flows; in production of competitive products; in entering new markets; in scientific and technical achievements.

Abstract. As the criticism of the definition of the phenotype (i.e., clinical diagnosis) represents the major focus of the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) initiative, it is somewhat surprising that discussions have not yet focused more on specific conceptual and procedural considerations of the suggested RDoC constructs, sub-constructs, and associated paradigms. We argue that we need more precise thinking as well as a conceptual and methodological discussion of RDoC domains and constructs, their interrelationships as well as their experimental operationalization and nomenclature. The present work is intended to start such a debate using fear conditioning as an example. Thereby, we aim to provide thought-provoking impulses on the role of fear conditioning in the age of RDoC as well as conceptual and methodological considerations and suggestions to guide RDoC-based fear conditioning research in the future.

The article clarifies the concept of “agricultural holding”, using an approach to assessing the size on the basis of the total revenue of all agricultural organizations within the agricultural holding. It has been revealed that only 100 of the total number of agricultural holdings that were identified can be attributed to large business entities. They comprise about 3% of agricultural organizations in the country, while their share in the proceeds is about 37%. A large share of agricultural holdings — large business subjects under the control of Russian entities operate in one, and under the control of foreign legal entities — in three or more regions of the Russian Federation. Vertical integration within the framework of large agricultural holdings with different schemes for including the stages of processing and sale of products produced in their agricultural organizations allows them to receive advantages. Strengthening the role of large business entities in agriculture puts on the agenda the issue of differentiating approaches to taxation and state support in agriculture, depending on the size of the companies’ agricultural businesses.

The term ?business model' has recently attracted increased attention in the context of financial reporting and was formally introduced into the IFRS literature when IFRS 9 Financial Instruments was published in November 2009. However, IFRS 9 did not fully define the term ‘business model'. Furthermore, the literature on business models is quite diverse. It has been conducted in largely isolated fashion; therefore, no generally accepted definition of ?business model' has emerged. Therefore, a better understanding of the notion itself should be developed before further investigating its potential role within financial reporting. The aim of this paper is to highlight some of the perceived key themes and to identify other bases for grouping/organizing the literature based on business models. The contributions this paper makes to the literature are twofold: first, it complements previous review papers on business models; second, it contains a clear position on the distinction between the notions of the business model and strategy, which many authors identify as a key element in better explaining and communicating the notion of the business model. In this author's opinion, the term ‘strategy' is a dynamic and forward-looking notion, a sort of directional roadmap for future courses of action, whereas, ‘business model' is a more static notion, reflecting the conceptualisation of the company's underlying core business logic. The conclusion contains the author's thoughts on the role of the business model in financial reporting.

The advancement of European dress to the rest of the world was linked to the definition of civilization as “a stage of social development considered to be more advanced” and “polite and good-mannered”. The widespread of their fashion style in the 19th and 20th centuries influenced the way the rest of the world attire. The fashion trend and dressing style thus change the purpose of dressing through time. The dressing style in campuses especially in private institutions of higher learning is under particular scrutiny, as it is often said to be inappropriate for a learning environment. This study looked at the importance of moral education, and its role in implementing the dress code for students among university students especially between two types of university i.e. public university and private university. It looked on the dressing style of students, both male and female, and the factors that lead to their dressing pattern which is common among students. This study also advocated the students’ understanding of the content of dress codes in their learning institution and the role played by moral education in regard to dress code. The overall study highlighted students’ perception towards the implementation of the dress code and punishment in their learning institution. The methodologies used to carry out this study are questionnaires and interviews. This study will therefore ascertain the important of dress code among students at higher learning institution and the role of moral education in cultivating values in order to dress properly or decently. Key Words: moral education, dress code, higher learning institution, civilization.
