Having identified the main infrastructural facilities that affect regional development, through regression analysis, the author evaluates their impact on regional gross domestic products. The author proposes a method for assessing infrastructural impacts on the standard of living through least squares. Since it has become necessary to address the problem of endogeneity caused by investments in infrastructure, an attempt is made to find instrumental variables and estimate it in two-step least squares. Thus, investments in transport infrastructure are reported to provide the greatest economic effect on regions in their early stages, while in the intermediate stage -investments in electricity and telecommunications. For developed regions, however, investing in education and "green" technology is likely to be the best possible solution. The problem of endogeneity is a very complex issue and it can be quite difficult to find instrumental variables. An exogenous variable must be valid and relevant. Pertaining to investment, mortality, life expectancy, road density, fatal road accidents, and migration are proposed as instrumental variables. Indeed, would anyone want to invest in a region, if people died there abundantly, would not live for long, would leave the region and there would be no roads and no new houses would be built. There are some guidelines proposed for building up those infrastructural elements that would contribute more heavily to the gross regional product and promote economic well-being.

“…Appropriate land management through right decisions made by agricultural entrepreneurs to provide service infrastructure in the area, including electricity, water and sewage system, not only increase the value of a given land, but also lower the costs of subsequent investments, thus, driving the increase in attractiveness. Such activities require significant financial outlays, which often represents a hindrance to further infrastructural development of micro-enterprises [27][28][29]. However, communes can benefit from state aid and EU funds designed to ensure equal opportunities and close the significant gap between urban and rural areas [30].…”

In today’s Polish economy, management processes in agri-business should be considered and taken into account in a more comprehensive way. The accession to the European Union created an obligation for Poland to implement solutions arising from the Common Agricultural Policy. Due to factors related to management in agri-business, farmer-entrepreneurs started to pay more attention to issues connected with the management process. An agricultural holding, like every enterprise, in order to be competitive and achieve a constant market presence, needs to adapt its production to current needs, invest in its development (thus, contributing to the development of rural areas), improve the quality of its products, and modernise. Management of agricultural enterprises is specific in character because the decisions that are made often concern not only production or investment, but also creation of actions that rely on management solutions. The aim of the paper is to present an original imperative (the imperative in article is a synonym for the word model) that is estimated by the method of least squares and uses panel data related to the measure ‘Creation and development of micro-enterprises’, including the implementation of funds for modernisation and development of investments in micro-enterprises. The results of the study made it possible to assess the effects of managing agricultural micro-enterprises in 16 provinces in Poland in the context of the decisions they made regarding the use of the funds under the Rural Development Programme (RDP) 2007–2013. These results can be used in the assessment of RDP management in the current financial perspective 2014–2020, which attests to their universality.

When analyzing the development of social development of the country, several concepts and methods are applied in practice. The aim of the article is to compare the development of social development in Slovakia using a composite indicator. Composite indicators as a tool for ranking objects are becoming more and more popular. The article describes various methods of its construction, their advantages and disadvantages. The construction of this aggregate indicator is based on the application of more complex and multidimensional statistical methods. The result of the statistical survey is a finding of steady growth of social development in Slovakia. The close negative dependence between social development and unemployment is illustrated.
