Development of an Algorithm for Calculating the Competitiveness of Goods in the Domestic Market and its Place in the Classifier of Competitiveness Assessment Methods

Abstract

In this article, the author brings the developed classifier of methods for assessing the competitiveness of goods in the division of various criteria, in which both the methods and criteria already encountered in the scientific literature and those proposed by the author are systematized. Analysis of the most popular methods showed that the ultimate goal of their use is to assess the competitiveness of goods in foreign markets in order to assess the chances of their progress. In pursuit of foreign markets, countries with a negative trade balance did not notice how their own market was seized by imported goods, which pushed domestic goods, even traditional ones, out of the market. Therefore, the author has set a goal to develop an algorithm for calculating the competitiveness of domestic goods in the domestic market, taking into account the specifics of the national economy. The article presents a flowchart of the algorithm and the results of its application, on the example of the Republic of Moldova.
