Geographical Utilization variable determination to variable investmenthas standardized estimate of 0,121<0,50 with CR identical to the value t-tes) CR = 1,749<2,00 on probability = 0,080 > 0,05 is negative not significant. Determination variable to variable Infrastructure Investmenthas standardized estimate 0f -0,816<0,50 with CR identical to the value t-test = -2,013<2,00 on probability = 0,044 < 0,05 is significantly negative. Determination of laten variable to variable organizations Resource investment has standardized estimate of 0,972>0,50 with CR identical to the value t count = 7,336>2,00 on probability = ***<0,05 is a significant positive. Utilization variable determination to variable Geographical Area Developmenthas standardized estimate of 0,020<0,50 with CR idential to value t count = 0,257<2,00 on probability = 0,797> 0,50 is negative not significant. Determination variable to variable Regional Development Infrastructure is has standardized estimate of 0,247<0,50 with CR idential to value t count = 2,248>2,00 on probability = 0,025<0,50 significantly positive. Organization Resource variable determinan variable is the Regional Developmenthas standardized estimate amounted to -0,224<0,50 with CR identical to the value t –test = -1,100<2,00 on probability = 0,272>0,50 not significant.
