Abstract

 Over the past few years, a number of Ukrainian scientists alongside international organizations have done research in the area of optimizing the current method for assessing the efficiency of budget programs in Ukraine. Evaluating the efficiency of budget programs seeks for appropriate analytical tools enabling to present different indicators in the common format. Therefore, an issue of supplementing the tools for assessing the efficiency of budget programs in Ukraine is of considerable importance. To accomplish this goal, the author has applied four ranking methods, which allow indicating what local government agency has conducted its budget programs most efficiently.

Keywords

 public sector, program-based budgeting, performance budgeting, performance indicators, budget program, ranking methods.
