It examines and analyzes the principles, rules, methods, and methodologies applied to various business scenarios involving the valuation and recognition of revenues with a variable component. The study focuses on the valuation and recognition of revenues from transactions involving the sale of goods or the provision of services with variable remuneration, where performance occurs either at a specific point in time or over a defined period. Approaches to the evaluation and allocation of discounts in multi-component contracts and transactions are also examined The timing of performance for individual components, such as goods and services, is discussed, and the importance of a systematic approach to accounting for agreements that include variables influencing the amount of revenue is highlighted. The analysis is based on a review of the approaches, methods, and practices employed by enterprises applying the International Accounting Standards in Bulgaria for 2023. The author argues that knowledge of the basic rules for transfer of control and knowledge of the principles and methods for evaluation, reporting and subsequent monitoring of the variable part of remuneration is a prerequisite for the correct current accounting of revenues and their periodic presentation in the financial statements. This, in turn, enhances the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial reports.

In a turbulent environment characterized by market uncertainty, changing consumer sentiment and ever-increasing regulations, digital transformation provides good opportunities for success. The study, part of which is presented in this article, is aimed at examining the use of digital transformation by enterprises in the Food and Beverage sector in the Southeast region, the stimulators and the obstacles that influence the use of DT and the attitudes of managers towards future implementation of the technology. This paper briefly presents basic definitions of digital transformation in order to highlight the importance of its implementation in micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, which make up the main share of companies in the region. The survey examines the use of ICT and Industry 4.0 tools in enterprises and reveals the extent of their implementation in the sector. This provides a good starting point for the respondents to obtain information about their digital development and to plan further steps towards improving internal company processes and activities. On the other hand, the information could help guide government policies related to digital transformation. At the same time, the study is limited to only one region of Bulgaria and one industry sector, which allows other researchers to conduct similar studies in other regions and sectors, at a national or international level.

In the context of digital business transformation, the organization's performance is heavily dependent on the integration and development of digital ecosystems and digital platforms, which are key structures of the digital economy. Business ecosystem engagement and inclusion are becoming increasingly popular as corporations collaborate in areas such as innovation, product development, and research. The Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data Analytics (BDA) play critical roles in the development of digital ecosystems and platforms in the tourism sector, providing efficient management solutions, increased public safety, and improved operational efficiency while addressing multiple risks and challenges, but they can also be a source of them. The study's goal is to define the positive characteristics of digital ecosystems and platforms, highlight the major risks associated with their development, and obtain suggestions and best practices for incorporating them into company activities. The primary research methodology is a comprehensive review of the scientific literature on the subject. Using the structural approach and critical analysis of the publications on the subject, conclusions and generalizations have been drawn about the potential of the ecosystem approach for the development of business organizations, the new opportunities they receive from the use of digital ecosystems and platforms, and the possible risks and threats to which they are exposed.
