Abstract
The purpose of the study is to develop methodological recommendations for calculating the share of the costs of the
administrator of the household waste management service in the weighted average tariff for the household waste management
service. The household waste management service is complex with clearly defined technological operations: collection,
transportation, recovery, disposal, and activities related to the organization of the household waste management system, carried
out by the performer of the household waste management service. Until now, a pricing system for a comprehensive household
waste management service has operated in Ukraine. At the same time, the solid household waste disposal process service was
fragmented and different operators serviced its various stages. In large agglomerations, this leads to the accumulation of economic
contradictions and social tension. According to the new Law of Ukraine, “On Waste Management”, the comprehensive service
for the management of solid household waste disposal is entrusted to the administrator of this service. With the appearance
of a system administrator in the service chain of this service, his costs should be included in the service tariff. The process of
substantiating the tariff for the administration of household waste management is the object of research in this work. In preparing
the recommendations, general scientific and special methods of cognition were used: scenario planning, analysis and synthesis,
logical generalization, and SWOT analysis. The main scientific result of the study is the methodology for calculating the share of
the costs of the administrator of the household waste management service in the weighted average tariff for the household waste
management service in the city of Odessa. The practical value of the scientific work is that the presented methodology is relevant
for all economic entities and can be applied in the territory of the city of Odessa and its agglomeration, regardless of the functional
use of the facility.
