Verification of a model of the evolution of the organizational structure of retail enterprises, by using regression analysis and automatic linear modeling

The purpose of the study, examined in this article, is to create an econometric model that allows quantifying the growth of the organization's efficiency in the process of its development. The retail sector of the Czech Republic was chosen as the object of analysis. The financial and economic indicators of these organizations were obtained from the database Albertina Gold Edition of Bisnode Česká republika, a.s. for 2014. The computer program IBM SPSS Statistics was used for regression analysis in order to conduct the research. The analysis of the obtained results showed that the increase in the efficiency of retail organizations in the process of their development can be described by a linear model with acceptable accuracy. The main factors determining the increase in the efficiency of retail organizations were identified and the authors confirmed the model of the evolution of the organizational structure of commercial organizations. The analysis of the constructed model revealed the factors having the greatest impact on the growth of the efficiency of retail trade organizations.
