Impact of Realized Investments in New Fixed Assets on Gross Domestic Product in Serbia

Abstract

The research subject is the analysis of the impact of the value of realized investments in new fixed assets on the gross domestic product (GDP) of Serbia in the period from 2012 to 2021. The research was conducted with the aim of determining which economic activity, according to the value of realized investments, contributes the most to the creation of the value of Serbia’s GDP. The defined goal was realized by applying the multiple regression method, and the starting model contained the value of realized investments in four activities, which are: manufacturing; electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply; transportation and storage; agriculture, forestry and fishing. The occurrence of multicollinearity between independent variables was checked by the tolerance coefficient, VIF coefficients and Eigen values, and their values indicate the presence of weak multicollinearity, which is a consequence of the impact of realized investments in agriculture, forestry and fishing. The result of the set regression model shows that the greatest contribution to the creation of Serbia’s GDP is made by the realized investment value in the electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (Standardized Beta Coefficients 0.687, Sig. = 0.012).

Effect of Public Investment on Health Population: A Review of BRICS Countries

“…The empirical results clarify that, in the context of Malaysia, foreign direct investment (FDI) plays a significant role in stimulating economic growth. In addition to highlighting the need of foreign direct investment, they have proposed that attention should also be paid to Malaysia's human capital (Ali, Akram, & Hafeez, 2021;Vučkovski, Paraušić, & Kljajić, 2023).…”

Sustainable agriculture of Serbia through the prism of the renewable energy sources market

“…Iako je potencijal ove energije u Srbiji značajan [1] [7] i zemlja deklarativno izražava pravac razvoja usmeren ka održivosti, većoj primeni OIE, zelenih tehnologija i energetskoj efikasnosti [8] [9], udeo OIE (solarna električna energija, energija vetra, geotermalna energija i biogas) u strukturi domaće proizvodnje primarne energije je nizak i iznosi svega 4,7% za 2020. godinu [10, str.261]. Značajan, ali nedovoljno iskorišćen potencijal OIE (pre svega u vidu poljoprivredne biomase) prisutan je u sektoru poljoprivrede Srbije [7], koji je ključni sektor nacionalne privrede sa stanovišta ekonomskog rasta, izvoza, investicija, prehrambene sigurnosti i zapošljavanja stanovništva [11], [12][13] [14].…”
