ADEQUACY OF THE MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR DETERMINING RATIONAL CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
Purpose. Modeling today is one of the popular research methods related to increasing the efficiency of the functioning of rail transport units, because the model is a substitute for the original object that helps to study its properties. Compliance with the results obtained by model, the behavior of a real object is an important issue for modeling, so the adequacy verification is an integral part of this process. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to present a method for verifying the adequacy of the model of determination of rational investments in terms of sustainable development. Methodology. For models of dependence of the function of elasticity of investments in the directions of sustainable development on the characteristics of demand for services, checking for the adequacy on the basis of Fisher's criterion was carried out. For what zero hypothesis was formed on the equality of dispersion of inadequacy and dispersion of the experiment. Findings. The verification of models on adequacy has shown that the dependence of the functions of elasticity of investments in the areas of sustainable development from the parameters of demand for services adequately describes experimental results. Practical value. The performance of the adequacy of models confirmed the expediency of practical use of models in the management of railway transport depending units of the functions of elasticity of investments in the directions of sustainable development on the characteristics of demand for services of departments.
