Abstract

Abstract: The study presents a comparative analysis of the economic and financial structure of companies in the Sucumbíos province, Lago Agrion canton, during the period 2017-2022. The main accounting variables were investigated, and a detailed analysis was carried out by economic sectors, highlighting the relevance of the transport and storage sector, as well as the role of wholesale and retail trade. Significant variations in revenues, costs, assets and liabilities were identified between sectors, as well as notable differences in debt and profitability levels. The findings suggest that logistics is crucial to the local economy and that there are opportunities for growth in trade. Recommendations include the implementation of economic surveillance systems, improvement in financial management, adoption of financial monitoring policies and review of financing strategies in sectors with high debt.
