but also in economic and social therefore evolution of the economic relations and all economic system is observed. The problem of efficiency increase of the enterprises fixed capital use takes the central place in economic conditions of today's Russia. The place of the enterprises in national production, their financial state, competitiveness in the market depends on the solution of this problem. For many enterprises the high level of fixed capital wear that does not allow to make qualitative and competitive production is common. It appears possible to solve this problem only due to more effective fixed capital use.
Having a fair idea of a fixed capital role in the production, factors influencing its use, it is possible to reveal methods, directions of efficiency increase for the fixed capital use providing decrease in production costs and a gain in work productivity.
Main Part. The state and efficiency of fixed capital use is characterized by a number of indicators, basic of which are the following: coefficients of wear and validity, coefficients of updating and leaving, share of completely worn-out fixed assets, ratio of growth rates of fixed capital and products, distribution of investments into fixed capital by types of fixed assets, branches, regions and others.
Let us consider the most important of these indicators characterizing fixed capital and separate types of economic activity of Russian economy in general and in regions.
In table 1 the specific structure of fixed assets in a section of economy key branches is presented, which shows their considerable distinctions [1].
Table 1

Total fixed assets from them:
buildings facilities machines and equipment vehicles other types of fixed assets
Total 100 14.6 49.7 27.9 5.9 1.9
including by types of economic activity:
agricultural industry, hunting and forestry 100 32.4 10.5 41.0 6.7 9.4
mineral extraction 100 6.9 68.4 20.6 2.7 1.4

transport and communication 100 7.9 53.4 22.7 14.8 1.2
In economy general in structure of fixed assets constructions prevail, and it is common for such kinds of activity as mining, production and distribution of the electric power, gas and water, wholesale and home shopping service, and also transport and
communication. In other forms of economic activity presented in the table 1, the greatest specific volume is occupied by machines and the equipment: these are agricultural industry, processing productions and construction. These specific structure features of fixed assets result in need of economically reasonable control system development taking into account specifics of their structure.
This, in particular, concerns matters of development of the depreciation policy directed on use of the accelerated charge ways of depreciation charges in those kinds of activity where machines and equipment, etc. prevail.
As a result of fixed capital systematic updating its volumes in dynamics increase. So, on statistical data, the cost of fixed capital (in the comparable prices) from 1990 for 2013 grew by 49%, that is almost by one and a half times. At the same time, wear of fixed capital is at a rather high level. In table 2 the indicators characterizing wear, updating and leaving of fixed capital are presented [1].

2012 47.7 4.8 0.7 14.0
2013 48.2 4.6 0.7 14.6
Apparent from this data in table 2, the level of fixed capital wear in comparison from 1990 grew from 35.6% to 48.2%, that is over one third. In a certain degree, it can be explained with decrease in rates of fixed capital updating which in 2013 decreased in comparison with 1990 by 27% (from 6.3 to 4.6%). At the same time rates of fixed capital leaving decreased almost by 3.5 times (from 2.4 to
0.7%). Lag of fixed capital leaving rates from rates of its updating was resulted by process of completely worn-out fixed assets accumulation the share of which over the last ten years practically did not change (in 2003 - 15%; in 2013 - 14.6%).
But if in general on economy the share of completely worn-out fixed assets was approximately on one level, in such types of economic activity as fishery and fish breeding, construction, transport and communication, their share considerably grew. Certainly, it is impossible to let out qualitative and competitive production on the equipment which is completely worn-out.
The developed negative situation concerning the state and the movement of fixed capital demands its
necessary updating in sufficient volumes which would allow to update technical base of production considerably and to provide import substitution, especially in those productions where borders of economic security are broken.
The question of fixed capital updating directly depends on existence of its financing sources which in modern conditions are obviously not enough, and the available sources often are not used directly. In particular, it belongs to depreciation charges which in most part are used for financing of material current assets acquisition [4]. As a result the share of own means in sources of investments into fixed capital financing constantly decreases in dynamics, and by results for 2014 it made 45.8% while the share of the funds raised on various conditions grew to 54.2%.
In the conditions of decrease in a share of own capital as an important source of investments into fixed capital financing the bank credit has to act, but conditions of its attraction in modern crisis situation remain unacceptable for the majority of the organizations. It is connected with the cost of this source of financing being rather high that does not

allow to receive sufficient profitability of production for paying back the credit organizations.
Efficiency of the borrowed funds use by the enterprise in turn is defined on the basis of a financial leverage effect calculation. It characterizes an increment of profitability from own enterprise assets as a result of borrowed funds use, despite availability in price of the last. The financial leverage effect is calculated as follows [5]:
FLE = (1 - Sn)(EP - SRSP)^,
where Sn - a rate of the profits tax, unit share;
EP - economic profitability (profitability of
assets), %;
SRSP - an average settlement rate of percent, %;
ZS - borrowed funds of the enterprise;
CC - own enterprise assets.
From this formula it is visible that use of borrowed funds in turn of the enterprise is effective only if the level of economic profitability (profitability of assets) appears above an average settlement rate of percent. Actually, the interest rate
for the credits is approximately twice higher in comparison with the level of assets profitability. Thus, use of credit resources as a source of investments into fixed capital financing leads to decrease in own capital of the enterprise that worsens results of its activity even more.
Besides, nearly over 80% of credit resources are provided by the credit organizations for the enterprises on a short-term basis while long-term investments are necessary for investments into fixed capital financing.
At the same time, structure of investments into fixed capital by types of economic activity also demands improvement. The investment policy has to stimulate scientific researches and development of new equipment and technologies, to maintain tendency of businessman investing into this development and investment in fixed capital to provide favorable investment climate. In table 3 the structure of investments into fixed capital on main types of economic activity is presented [3].

Scientific researches and development 0.4 0.5 0.5 0.7 0.8 0.7 1.0 1.0
The structure of investments into fixed capital by types of economic activity is not perfect. The share of the investments sent to the processing productions including into production of machines and the equipment shows it. From the total amount of investments only 14.9% goes to processing. In comparison with 1995 this amount practically did not change, and during certain periods it was even lower. From this volume only 0.7% of means are used for financing of machines and the equipment production that is extremely insufficient. The level of
mechanical engineering development defines rates of scientific and technical progress development in all other branches of economy therefore investments into this sphere have to be maximum and much higher in comparison with other kinds of activity. So far the pursued investment policy does not provide priority development of mechanical engineering. In most cases businessmen are guided by acquisition of foreign production technology that results in technological dependence on the developed states

and does not promote improvement of investment climate in the country.
Much more investments go to the extracting branches that fixes a further raw orientation in development of the Russian economy. In dynamics the share of investments into fixed capital increases from 14.2% in 1995 to 16.1% in 2014.
Also investments in trade, in production and distribution of the electric power, gas and water, transport and communication grow, and in construction their share decreased practically by 1.5 times for the considered period. The share of investments into fixed capital directed on scientific researches and development is absolutely
insignificant: from 0.4% to 1% in dynamics. Transfer of economy to innovative development way demands a basic change developed and for a long time supported structure of investments into fixed capital.
Similar tendencies are common for regional economies as well as the high level of profitability in raw branches continues to attract considerable volumes of investment resources. At the same time, there are still separate reserves for improvement of fixed capital use. In particular, in the Belgorod region as such reserve it is possible to note the available reserve in use of capacities in separate kinds of activity that is shown in table 4 [2].

The greatest opportunities are available in production of such production, as fruit and vegetable canned food, whole-milk production, sugar beet and another. Use of these capacities will allow to increase considerably return from fixed capital and to increase efficiency of regional economy functioning.
At the same time, investment resources, which volumes have insufficiently expressed dynamics to growth, are also necessary for maintenance of the available capacities; that is presented in the table 5 [2].

As data shows, growth rates of investments are not rather steady against growth that is caused by a number of reasons, of macroeconomic character as well as regional conditions of development.
As for the directions of investments into fixed capital use in the Belgorod region, they essentially differ from the similar directions in general across Russia that is presented in table 6 [2].
Table 6
Specific structure of investments into fixed capital

including
lodgings 16.0 5.7
into buildings (except inhabited) and construction 42.1 39.1
in machines, equipment, vehicles 35.3 52.0
etc. 6.6 3.2
The main difference of investments into fixed capital structure in the Belgorod region is considerable excess of the investments directed on acquisition machines, financing the equipment and vehicles, in comparison with average values about the country, almost by 1.5 times.
In spite of the fact that Belgorod region represents the region developed in facility construction, according to the share common of investments into this direction on average across Russia the indicator was higher.
Also in the Belgorod region the smaller share of means goes for construction of buildings and constructions (except housing).
In general the structure of investments into fixed capital across the Belgorod region is more progressive since it promotes faster rates of economy development.
Conclusion. On the basis of the carried-out analysis it is possible to note a number of directions allowing to improve structure of fixed capital and to increase efficiency of its use.
In particular, redistribution of investments in the direction of their bigger share on formation of fixed assets active part on the basis of new construction, expansion, reconstruction, modernization and production modernization that will promote increase of a social production efficiency is necessary. Formation of high-quality economic growth requires repeated investment increase and innovative activity, restructuring of the Russian economy on the basis of a wide circulation of modern technologies.
Expansion of investments into fixed capital financing sources requires depreciation of credit resources, as well as release from the income taxation of the enterprises aimed at production development, carrying out research and development and development of new technologies, that is widely applied in the developed foreign countries and was used in Russia till 2002.
As a stabilization factor freezing the service prices of natural monopolies that will promote decrease in inflation rate is necessary and will provide more favorable conditions for development of domestic market.
