        Abstract. The study is focused on the methodology of DuPont multiplicative
        model application in the financial management, specifically, its modification
        fitting into the recreational environment; the latter is demonstrated on the ex-
        ample of one of the enterprises in Big Yalta. The article discusses the impact
        factors and their effects on the efficiency of the recreation companies in terms
        of the financial management strategy and attempts to present the system of in-
        terrelated ratios and their interpretations reflecting different financial manage-
        ment strategies. The theoretical analysis of the recreation industry according to
        the general-to-specific pattern allowed for the modification of the DuPont mod-
        el which takes into account business operations alone and other activities, the
        recreation industry being “the specific”. Further on, the study specifies the im-
        pact factors on the pre-tax profit clarifying that the discrepancies in business
        accounting and tax accounting require additional studying which lies beyond
        the scope of the current research. As a result, we obtain a model of a mixed type
        which allows taking into account the factors that affect operating and other ac-
        tivities in terms of the bottom line and profitability. However, it is emphasized
        that the applied factorial method of chain substitution is not flawless and is only
        relevant for the enterprise used as the demonstrative modified model; hence, the
        idea is to use the integrated total of the ratios based on the factors of the model
        to evaluate their impact on the recreation industry performance in Big Yalta and
        the subregions of Crimea (method of correlation analysis).

1      Introduction

Recreation business has a range of positive effects including health gain, reduced
medical expenses during the year, environmental improvement and preservation and
increased labor efficiency, which allows to refer it to a social category of business.
Recently, the commercial activity has deflected from its original trajectory of combin-
ing beach recreation with therapeutic function, which to a great extent estranges this
type of business from the social category and strategically creates problems for recre-
ation businesses whose resources remain unengaged in the off-season period.
   Thus, putting the recreation infrastructure into the operation mode before the high
season and putting it on halt after the period of activity results in lower competitive
ability of the product and greater expenses, which leads to higher prices. When it
concerns recreation business development, personal benefits and social benefits large-
ly go hand in hand when it comes to strategic planning which, in its turn, has to meet
the external challenges rather than follow the will of a separate enterprise.
   In this case, the efficiency of the strategy of the recreation business management
greatly depends not only on the economic environment, but also on the financial in-
sight and financial management that has to be evaluated based on the profitability
ratios related to business activity, assets, equity and other operating and overhead
expenses as well as the effects of the other activities, including investment and fi-
nance.
   First of all, the financial management is evaluated through the financial leverage
effects as the positive changes are often neutralized by the high loan rates, which
makes businesses rely on the factors stimulating growth of the asset turnover ratio and
return on sales.


2      Theoretical background

The financial strategy at the enterprise has been the focus of many researchers includ-
ing I. A. Blank [1; 2], Yu. Brigham and O.L. Gapenski [3]. M. S. Oborin [4; 5] stud-
ied the financial strategy as a part of the management mechanism at the recreation
complex, and Yu. N. Vorobyov [6] and G. G. Yermolenko [7]. analyzed the recrea-
tion companies’ financial performance.
   When evaluating the efficiency of the business management, the first things to be
taken into account are the income and the efficiency indices calculated based on the
expenses on the operating, investment and other business activities [4]. Thus, this
study of the financial management strategy uses the widely known DuPont multiplica-
tive model which traditionally includes three factors and its modification designed in
accordance with the specific features of the recreation industry [1].
   The study materials used to observe the functioning of the DuPont model and ana-
lyze its constituent factors include recreation companies in Big Yalta which made
10% of the selected data [8]. The other selected data for the comparative analysis
were on the other subregions.
   In the current situation, the use of such analysis tools as financial leverage effect
and DuPont strategic model for developing the financial strategy of the company as a
part of the general business strategy is impeded due to the low return on assets and,
hence, insufficient equity of many enterprises in Big Yalta and Big Alushta, the situa-
tion being worse in other subregions of Crimea [1; 3; 6; 7].
   The financial strategy is understood as an integrated system of financial manage-
ment which is also a part of the general business strategy that makes a program or a
complex of strategic solutions to effective resource management [1]. In the western
economic theories, the financial strategy has to coordinate the external financial
sources with the general strategy of business development. [9].
   Formula 1 in its initial modification has the following expanded form:


                                                                                        (1)
    where TI is the total income from all kinds of activities (operating and others);
    NI is net income;
    AC is aggregate capital (the total assets);
    EQ is equity.


3       Methodological approaches

Thus, on studying the works by Russian researches [1; 2; 3; 10; 11; 12; 13; 14] and
analyzing the activity of the recreation companies, we may conclude that factorial
analysis of the return of equity according to DuPont model plays a key role in devel-
oping the financial strategy and is characterized by the following factors:
   1)          Financial leverage factor or its opposite, solvency ratio (SLR). The im-
pact of the leverage factor on the return of equity (ROE) for the majority of the com-
panies in the subregions of Crimea is negative which is confirmed by the positive, but
yet low correlation ratio (0.15) between ROE and SLR. Thus, operating efficiency
based on debt financing would be a solution for the majority of enterprises in Big
Yalta with the correlation ratio -0.68;
   2)          The return on assets (ROA) factor in the recreation industry shows great
potential in the conditions of growing economic activity in the off-season period and
can add to the effect produced by the product profitability factor (PPR) as the pricing
of the service does not only include the expenses in the high season, but also the ex-
penses related to the infrastructure maintenance in the off-season period. The latter
are comprised of the wages paid for servicing, heating and other expenses in the off-
season when the accommodation services are hardly provided. In many recreation
companies, the annual amortization of a big share of the fixed-capital assets has to be
recovered within 3 – 4 month of active work;
   3)          The product profitability factor (PPR). Cost reduction has a positive ef-
fect on the product profitability (PPR), which ceteris paribus in the Crimean recrea-
tion industry, could make a significant change only in case of the revitalization of the
business activity in the off-season period (criterion of business activity in the off-
season period in the marginal approach > variable costs) that we outlined earlier as an
outcome of the rising return on assets. It is noteworthy that business activity revitali-
zation in the off-season period acquires particular importance for big enterprises
which could make use of the scale effect. This means that even relatively big compa-
nies can spend more on the sales promotions by introducing special services or reduc-
ing prices.
   4)         Operating activity factor. The increase in the operating activity in the
off-season period is a solution in terms of another factor to be included into the
DuPont modification model – the operating income.
   The theoretical analysis of the recreation industry peculiarities and their actualiza-
tion in the DuPont model allow for its modification as a result of the general-to-
specific approach, the specific being the recreation industry. The model as shown in
formula 2 is of the mixed kind which takes into account operating and other activities
in the bottom line and productivity (Table 1).


                                                                                      (2)

    where (AC/EQ) can be replaced by (EQ/AC);
    OI is operating income;
    SR is sales revenues;
    TI is total income from all kinds of activities (operating and others);
    NP is net profit;
    Pother is profit from other activities;
    AC is aggregate capital of the company (all its assets);
    EQ is equity.
    It should be noted in terms of the operating activity and other activities that if the
latter are not proportional to the former, but take the same direction, presumably, the
growth of the business activity in the recreation industry is happening at the expense
of the operating activity. Though, eventually, should the company come close to its
maximum potential realization, this correlation has to be inverse. In this correlation
the ratios do not have to be compared in their absolute values.
    The profit from other activities can have a positive effect on the bottom line of the
company, should the operating costs be considerable, and thus, also on the net profit.
    The relevance of the other activities in the recreation industry should also be con-
nected with the off-season factor which causes enterprises to engage their assets into
rental activities, use their funds to earn some interest and sell the assets which become
not fully used or loss-making due to the changed environment. It is evident that in the
conditions of the increased business activity other incomes and costs will be taking a
smaller part in the overall business performance whereas the share of the operating
activity in the company’s income will be bound to grow.


4      Results

The DuPont model has been tested and the obtained results are presented in Table 1
on the example of AO Sanatorium “Ai-Petri”.
   The impact of the factors was not evaluated solely based on the regular return on
equity ratio, but also on another modification as we took into account the peculiarities
of both business and tax accounting. Herewith, it is important to stress that in this
respect tax management is another factor that can be studied in detail following the
general-to-specific approach; unfortunately, the current research leaves no room for it.

 kinds of activities
   The data for the calculation are taken from [8; 11; 12;13; 14].
Using the index of pre-tax profit rather than net profit provides for a different repre-
sentation of return on equity ratio (Formula 3):

                                                                                      (3)
  where PTprofit is the pre-tax profit;
  NP is net profit;
  EQ is equity.
   The carried-out analysis shows that operating activity of AO Sanatorium “Ai-Petri”
played a key role in return on equity. Among several factors that had an impact on the
return on equity there was the return on sales factor which amounted to 88.8% in the
operating activity whose ration reached 97.4% compared to only 2.6% ratio of other
activities, which though having a negative effect on the overall performance still al-
lows compensating at least some expenses in the off-season period.
   The studied material includes a selection of enterprises of different scale in terms
of the number of employees and assets. We also tried to eliminate all the enterprises
whose sales revenues were subject to considerable oscillations and instead focused on
the enterprises showing operating stability (based on the sales revenues dynamics
over the period of 4 years). We excluded the enterprises with limited access to their
data due to the status of Federal State Budgetary Institutions (Table 2).

   The selection includes a number of out-of-line enterprises that should not be taken
into account when carrying out the analysis as they show nontypical patterns, which
can impact the outcome. The enterprises that stand out in terms of their indices are
OOO Sanatorium “Kiev” and OOO “SKK “Goluboy Zaliv”, both showing very low
solvency ratio and negative return on equity.
   The enterprises with high return on equity and loan capital are located in different
subregions of Crimea, but most of them are in Yalta: AO “Kirov Sanatorium”, AO
Sanatorium “Kurort-Mishor”, PAO “G/K “YALTA-INTOURIST” and State unitary
enterprise of the Republic of Crimea “Sanatorium FOROS”.
   Efficiency of the financial management is directly connected with the credit and
loan availability. For instance, the majority of the enterprises accumulate a big share
of their internal funds and solvency ratio is close to 1 whereas only enterprises show-
ing high profitability can afford a considerable share of loans (Table 3).

  The calculation is based on [4; 5; 8; 9; 10; 11; 12; 13; 15].

When analyzing the factors of the selected strategic model, we discovered the correla-
tion between the return of equity (ROE) and the solvency ratio (SLR) which proves
that not all the recreation enterprises on the list used loans.
   On the example of the studied enterprise, we many conclude that return on equity
(ROE) has good potential for growth at the expense of the increasing operating activi-
ty and return on assets which amounts to 15.2% whereas PPR amounts to 82%. The
PPR factor is well-grounded when applying the method of chain substitution; howev-
er, it has to be made clear that return on assets and growth of the operating activity
ratio are highly underrated. When applying other methods of factorial analysis [16],
the obtained results may differ as the joint effect is taken into account; in the mean-
time, it is evident that studying the factor impacts on the activity of only one enter-
prise in the recreation industry is not enough and cannot be representative, thus, a
study carried out in the field of recreation industry requires elaboration of a different
approach (Table 4).

  The calculation is based on [17; 18]


The studied correlation ratios should show inverse relationship in case the financial
leverage effect has a positive value. As the enterprises start to grow at the expense of
the loan capital use, the solvency ratio decreases and the return on equity increases,
which explains the negative relationship between the changes in ROE and SLR. In the
subregions of Crimea, this relationship is positive, though the ratio is rather low
(0.15) whereas in Big Yalta the relationship is negative (-0.68).
   The correlation between ROE and PPR can be either positive or negative depend-
ing on the changes in ROA, i.e. all the three ratios have to be studied together. For
example, in case of business growth, there can be a drop in PPR due to the focus on
the demand stimulation activities accompanied either by reduced pricing or increase
in extra costs, which will eventually lead to rising ROE showing a negative relation-
ship with PPR, but a positive one with SLR, should the business growth be stimulated
by loan capital. It is important to remember that economic growth results in extra
losses and expenses on sales promotions which can respectively be covered by cost
reduction achieved due to scale effect; in this case the correlation between ROE and
PPR will be positive [19; 20; 21].
   Hence, it is necessary to collect additional information on the changes in the busi-
ness activity in the off-season period as in the high season demand exceeds supply.
The correlation ratio which reflects this condition is the relationship between sales
revenues (SR) and other incomes whose insignificant values may be explained as a
result of decreasing share of other activities in the total income due to the activation
of the activity in the off-season period.
   The PPR and ROA correlation ratio in the subregions of Crimea is rather low
(0.28), which allows suggesting that other activities make up a big share in the busi-
ness activity of the companies, but it is less efficient in comparison with the compa-
nies in Big Yalta where this ratio amounts to 0.8. The other activities depend on the
vigorousness of the operating activity in the off-season (the relationship is negative)
[22; 23].
   The results presented in Table 3 and Table 4 allow making conclusions in terms of
the financial management of the enterprises in Big Yalta as compared to the other
subregions of Crimea. ROE of the selected enterprises in Big Yalta amounts to 25%
and their performance is characterized by the distinct ROE and SLR correlation ratio
which equals -0.68 whereas its value is positive (0.15) in the other subregions of Cri-
mea. Under the circumstances, return on aggregate capital (14%), which is always
lower than ROE, is another evidence of the loan use and efficient operation. In this
way, the correlation ratios help evaluate the economic condition of an enterprise and,
thus, define the trajectories of its further development.


5      Discussion
When interpreting the obtained correlation ratios, it is necessary to take into account
the development tendencies in the recreation industry. Specifically, starting 2015 the
industry has been enjoying a considerable growth in customers, which has had a posi-
tive effect on the occupancy rate; however, the received data show that the situation is
not so straightforward for the recreation companies as the peculiarities of the subre-
gions and different level of business activity play a big part [24; 26].
    The enterprises in Big Yalta and other subregions of Crimea selected within the
scope of this research show significant discrepancies as per their efficiency ratios; for
this reason, they have been studied separately. Moreover, the enterprises in the subre-
gions can also be classified into different groups depending on the mode of business
activity.
    According to the elaborated methodology of correlation ratios which has been par-
tially presented above, the enterprises of the subregions of Crimea have been grouped
as per their ROA ratios presented in Table 5. We should conclude that, like many
other enterprises, AO Sanatorium “Ai-Petri” largely relies on self-funding, which
adds to the solvency ratio; however, the data obtained on the other recreation enter-
prises of Big Yalta differs, which also concerns the ROE/SLR ratio at -0.68 suggest-
ing efficient debt financing.
    The enterprises in the subregions of Crimea in the group with ROA (above aver-
age) show semblance with the enterprises of Big Yalta in terms of their performance.
Enterprises in both groups show economic growth and sales growth (which corre-
sponds to the tendencies in the industry) and use debt funding contributing to their
effective development and ROE growth [25; 27; 28].
    The difference, however, lies in the fact that the enterprises in the subregions of
Crimea are more subject to the effects of the ROA/ROE correlation in comparison
with Big Yalta, the latter showing positive relationship between PPR and ROE,
which, most probably, signifies the growing demand for the recreation service and,
hence, growth in prices.

 The calculation is based on [8]
   The negative PPR/ROE correlation in the subregions of Crimea indicates that the
enterprises are actively engaged in the demand stimulation activities resulting in
growing expenses and reduced prices for the service. Recently, the share of the cus-
tomers consuming recreation services has been increasing on the western and eastern
coasts of Crimea.
   The enterprises of Big Yalta show greater efficiency in comparison with the enter-
prises in the other subregions of Crimea, which is evident from the higher profitability
ratios and active debt funding in the financial management. At the subregional level,
this also contributes to the competitive advantage that Big Yalta has over the other
subregions [29; 30].


6      Conclusions
The obtained data allow making conclusions as for the financial management strate-
gies applied at the enterprises of Big Yalta in comparison with the other subregions of
Crimea. Thus, the average ROE of the studied enterprises of Big Yalta amounts to
25% and is accompanied by a distinct negative ROE/SLR ratio of -0.68 as compared
to the positive ratio of 0.15 shown by the enterprises in the subregions; however,
thorough analysis reveals that the ROE/SLR ratio of the enterprises with ROA (above
average) approximates the ratio in Big Yalta. Another peculiarity lies in the fact that
ROA/ROE ratio has a much greater value in the subregions than in Big Yalta. The
negative PPR/ROE correlation in the subregions of Crimea within the studied group
proves that these enterprises actively carry out demand stimulation activity unlike the
enterprises in Big Yalta where profitability is geared by the demand growth.
