The modern tourist has higher and higher requirements, he is not satisfied only with rest, but he is looking for and wants to participate in various creative activities, to play sports, to be a spectator and to participate in evening shows, ie. in a word, he is looking for "360 ° entertainment". Vacation is no longer just a nice place (destination), a good hotel and excellent food. It is an opportunity for people to do what they have always wanted. To pamper that child thirsty for adventure, games and fun, which each of us carries with us and which we often forget. If restaurant and hotel services satisfy some primary needs for comfort and security, then animation is designed to meet the needs of the higher levels of Maslow's pyramid, namely socialization, self-knowledge and self-improvement. The subject of this report is the quality of the animated product. The object is the hotel industry as a subsystem of the "Tourism" system. The aim is to emphasize the animation service in hotels as a leading competitive advantage. In order to achieve this goal, the advantages of offering animation in the hotel industry are also presented. In conclusion, we come to the conclusion that the main effect of the animation for a hotel is to increase the complexity of the offer, and hence greater satisfaction of tourists. This increases the number of repeat and multiple visits, as well as attracting new visitors. For the hotelier, this is already a guarantee for increasing revenues, respectively the realization of higher profits. The animation contributes to increasing the quality of all services offered.

The study was conducted in the period 2013-2016 at the Institute of Agriculture (Kyustendil, Bulgaria) in a cherry orchard with the sour cherry cultivar Erdi Bötermö, established in 2006 with planting distances 5 x 4 m. The soil was heavily leached Cinnamon Forest (Chromic Luvisols). The following fertilization treatments were examined: V1-unfertilized-(control); V2-ammonium nitrate-24.24 kg/da; V3-ammonium nitrate-30.30 kg/da; V4-poultry manure125 kg/da+leaf manure SoftGard-120 ml/da; V5-poultry manure-250 kg/da. During the fruiting period, the main economic indicators are calculated annually: gross output, lv/da; production costs, lv/da; net income, lv/da; norm of profitability,%. Due to the lower value of investments in the control, the production of cherries in this treatment had the highest norm of profitability – 60%. Despite the obtained higher average yields in all variants of fertilization compared to that of the nonfertilized variant, an additional profit was obtained only in the variants fertilized with ammonium nitrate. At the lower fertilization norm the value of the additional gain was 36.4 lv/da, whereas it was 32.1 lv/da at the higher dose. The additional costs incurred for fertilization with poultry manure were not justified due to its higher value and the slower action of this type of manure. Nitrogen fertilizers are absorbed faster, and thus their application leads to higher economic efficiency for sour cherry trees of the cultivar Erdi Bötermö. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present research there is suggested a methodology for the economic effect assessment at the mediation in the crisis management, which is experimented in business organizations. In order to be estimated the economic effect there is made an approbation of a mathematical model among 38 experimented cases, which have been solved for approximately 860 days. According to that experiment it is suggested a methodology for assessment of time and money saving when the conflicted (disputed) situations might be solved by using mediation or by a judicial way. The case study is provided by comparing two examples – in the first one is used a mediator, in the second one is used the judicial way. The results are compared with the saved time in days. There are estimated and the saved financial activities for the solving of each examined case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of the present study was to establish the economic effect of supplementing the combined feed of growing pigs with the Bulgarian biologically active plant additive VemoHerb. Data of the experiments carried out in the period 2003 - 2008 with 202 pigs of different categories were processed in order to find out the effect of the product VemoHerb on some economic parameters. The results of the conducted economic analysis show that VemoHerb supplemented to the combined feed of starter and growing pigs under the conditions of the carried out experiments, led to a reduction of the expenditures per 1 kg of weight gain and an increase of the notional profit per 1 kg of weight gain, compared to the control group without the growth stimulator.
