Relevance. The assessment of assets located in a specific territory is an important methodological and practical task.The purpose of the article is to adjust Thomas Piketty's methodology for assessing regional wealth, taking into account the peculiarities of Russian accounting and statistical accounting and applying the adjusted methodology to the assessment of the cost of capital in the southern regions of the Central Federal District. The obtained estimates of the cost of capital for the Russian Federation as a whole are compared with Piketty's estimates as a benchmarking. The purpose is to assess the physical in the Central Federal District and seven southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation for 2021. Objectives: to develop methods for assessing physical capital, taking into account the criticism of T. Piketty's methodology and eliminating its shortcomings; to assess the cost of physical capital of enterprises, organizations, housing, land and savings in the Central Federal District and seven southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation.Methodology. The article was prepared within the framework of Thomas Piketty's capital valuation paradigm, adjusted to take into account the author's vision of the problem.Results. Quantitative estimates of the cost of physical capital in the Central Federal District and seven southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation have been obtained.Conclusions. Piketty's methodology provides an underestimate of the cost of physical capital at the level of the southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation. Underestimation is taking place in the assessment of the value of land, capital of enterprises and organizations and the value of housing stock. The highest cost of physical capital in the southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation is in Voronezh (5,238 trillion rubles) and Belgorod regions (4,255 trillion rubles), the lowest is in Bryansk (1,772 trillion rubles) and Oryol (1,340 trillion rubles) regions. The ratio of the cost of physical capital in the southern regions of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation to the gross regional product varies in the range from 5.16 (Tambov region) to 3.14 (Belgorod region). The average ratio of capital to GRP in the seven southern regions of the Central Federal District is 3.96, which corresponds to the global average.

Relevance. In connection with the decline of neoconservative ideology, methodological disputes have escalated regarding both the methods used by economists and the scientific paradigm underlying economic science itself. If in the XIX century economic analysis corresponded to a critical scientific approach, then in the second half of the XX century economists had to revise the requirements for the quality of research from the standpoint of falsificationism. The article deals with the problems of applying the concepts of K. Popper, I. Lakatosh, etc. Kuhn's approach to the theoretical postulates of the modern economic mainstream, Marxism and institutionalism.The purpose is to consider the problem of critical application of the concepts of K. Popper, I. Lakatosh and T. Kuhn to modern scientific knowledge and the tasks of current economic research.Objectives. The following tasks are considered: concretization of the principle of verificationism in relation to economic analysis; concretization of the principle of falsificationism in relation to economic research; determination of the directions of progressive research economic programs.Methodology. The article is prepared within the framework of the positivist paradigm and an adductive approach combining deductive-inductive logicResults. Economics is a science from the point of view of the paradigm of Imre Lakatos and Thomas Kuhn, but it is not a sphere of pure scientific knowledge from the standpoint of Karl Popper's falsificationism.Conclusions. The principle of verificationism dominates modern scientific economic research. Most economic paradigms are degrading. In economic research, it is necessary not only to strive to statistically confirm the hypothesis put forward, but also to compare it with competing scientific explanations.

Relevance. The article presents a statistical analysis between gross regional products and investments in fixed capital for the Orel, Kursk, Bryansk, Voronezh, Belgorod, Tambov and Lipetsk regions of the Russian Federation. Animation effects and acceleration effects are calculated with a yearly time lag. The gradation of areas was carried out according to the importance of accelerators and multipliers The purpose Investigation the statistical significance of the acceleration and multiplier approaches to the interaction between investment and GRP in seven regions of the Central Federal District. Objectives: calculate the Fisher index for 1995-2020; carry out a correlation analysis for the "long" time range; determine the statistical significance of the acceleration and multiplication hypotheses. Methodology. The article was prepared within the framework of the Keynesian macroeconomic paradigm, taking into account the temporary annual lag. Results. The statistical significance of the correlation analysis is greatest in the absence of any assumptions about the presence of a time lag in the effects of determining exogenous and endogenous parameters. Conclusions. In the Russian Federation, the regions of the Central Federal District, the Voronezh and Tambov regions, there is a stable multiplier effect of the direct impact of investments on economic growth. The highest degree of determination is observed in larger regions and agglomerations, including at the expense of the city of Moscow. Assuming the presence of a time lag, the multiplier effect in all analyzed subjects decreases, but remains statistically significant. This conclusion is somewhat different from the results obtained earlier on the data of a shorter time series. The effect of acceleration over the analyzed period, from 1999 to 2020, was observed to the greatest extent in the Kursk and Lipetsk regions.
