Modelling the Relations Between the Primary Resources and the Financial Result: Trans Polonia Group Case Study

Each entity builds a specific model of functioning, which is related to the selection and configuration of resources, so that the assumed goal can be achieved in given market conditions. This goal in the short term amounts to achieving the planned profit, while in the long term it means competitive advantage and durability of being. This objective is accomplished by shaping the level of used and necessary resources, such as material and personal resources. The article assumes that for transport companies the basic resources that affect the level of profit are means of transport and employment. The thesis of the article is that it is possible to build a model describing the determinants of the use of resources to generate a certain profit by transport companies. The test method of Engle–Granger cointegration was used to build the model. The study was based on data of the Transpolonia entity.
