ABSTRACT
It was proposed to use the sum of production functions of different lifestyles, to describe the changes in the Russian economy. Values of indicators of a power function of Cobb-Douglas were received from approximate formulas on the basis of data from various sources. A good concordance with change process of Russia’s GDP, what permit to predict its behavior in the future, was received.
Keywords:Economic Ways, Economic Lifestyle, Social and Economic Structure, Revenue, Domestic Product
However, the perspective development of society depends on how advanced, albeit small part of this society lives. This prospect is not a joyful for the present. The Ministry of economic development has reduced its expectations on the long-term growth of world and Russian economy. These calculations on the prediction were carried out using the scenarios assessment for the case of a conservative scenario. According to this new basic scenario it is supposed that the share of Russia in world economy will decrease from 4.0% in 2012 to 3.4% in 2030, the main recession will begin after 2020 [1] . 2. Literature Review@NolistTemp# Promising forms of development of economic relations within the modern society lighted in many papers. For example, in sufficient detail they write about small fraction of the innovation economy in Russia. In reference [2] it is indicated that “as far as the ability to create new knowledge is concerned, Russian companies perform better. Their share of expenditure on R & D in 2007, as a percentage of GDP, was 0.7 percent”. Change of lifestyles distribution among themselves is a consequence of features of economic development. As stated in reference [3] , “modern European lifestyles are unsustainable in many ways and are based on overproduction and overconsumption; putting too much pressure on our natural resources and imposing negative environmental, economic, (individual and collective) social and health impacts”. It is noted also that this question is very important for economy. Countries that promote exports of more “sophisticated” goods grow faster. Of course it could be that by pushing investments into sophisticated activities for which the economy has no innate comparative advantage China and other countries with similar policies have ended up penalizing their economies [4] . In article F. Pfeiffer and K. Reuß [5] was made attempt to describe accumulation of the factors providing development of the human capital with age. There are two equations, one for cognitive, one for self-regulatory skills, that specify skill formation and depreciation on a yearly basis over the life span of 80 periods (years). 3. Materials and Methods@NolistTemp# The first category of data was obtained from various sources, including statistical directories, speeches of officials and articles about social and economic position of regions of Russia. The second part of the data on the share of the effects of certain lifestyles was obtained by interviewing 128 experts. 4. Theory@NolistTemp# Economic mechanism of Russia is under considerable influence from different lifestyles. The part of the population must survive, and its lifestyle is difficult to call differently, than preindustrial. Power structures have started talking about reindustrialization. The most successful part of the population implements post-industrial approach to the organization of their work. All these lifestyles mixed forming a strange mosaic of interaction that hinders the economic development of the country and strengthens the impoverishment of the population. Most of inhabitants of Russia are not confident that their diligent work will receive an adequate return in the form of material and moral compensation. It is accepted to use production function for the description the regularities of results of labor. Production function allows you to set dependence between the volume of the final product and the volumes used factors of production. The production function has the form Y = f(Xi). In the particular case it takes the form of the function Cobb-Douglas






To account NTP we will use growth curve significant inventions by L. Mamford [11] , which is described by the expression

This method allows to predict development of a situation and to estimate change of GNP of Russia in the future in short limits.
