It has been established that despite the large number of studies on this topic, the interest in statistical data processing is only growing, especially due to the huge amount of information that requires correct and effective processing and making the right management decisions. It was established that in order to build an effective model of statistical analysis, it is necessary to research the object of analysis, the factors influencing it, as well as the methods that will be the most effective and optimal in the research process.
