Abstract

From foreign and/or domestic investors' perspectives, it may be interesting to find any financial attributes or profile of the firms headquartered in 'Chungcheong' province concerning profitability, given that this subject so far drew less attention in the previous literature. This study performed three hypothesis tests on the profitability indicator by utilizing the models such as the 'panel data' one and the 'logistic' regression one, applying a modified 'Dupont' system. With respect to the major findings, the results identified that the proxies measuring leverage across the book-value(BVLEV1) and the market-value(MVLEV1) bases, were statistically significant constituents determining profitability. Another explanatory variable, SIZE, with its positive and statistically significant relationship to the indicator, represented that the firms in the province were smaller than their counterparts in the other regional areas in Korea. DRELY applying a modified 'Dupont' system, found to be the only statistically significant discriminating factor between these comparison groups. As one of the primary contributions of this study, the outcomes may be used by the financial institutions operated across the regions including Seoul Metropolitan area, when implementing their lending practices to provide funds for potential borrowers such as the firms belonging to 'Chungcheong' province.

충청권 본사 소재의 KOSDAQ 상장기업들의 재무적측면관련, 수익성 결정요인에 대한 기존의 연구졀과들은 기존의 재무적이슈 연구들과 비교하여, 상대적으로 연구정도가 미약하다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 동 표본기업들을 중심으로 수익성 관련 가설에 대한 3가지 심층분석을 위한 검정을 수행한 결과, 다음의 종합적인 내용이 발견되었다.: 첫째, '패널자료' 모형을 활용하여 분석한 결과, 충청권 소재 기업들의 자본구조는 종속변수인 수익성에 대하여 음(-)의 유의적 상관관계를 유지하였으며, 이는 장부가와 시장가 기준의 모든 부채비율에게 공통적으로 나타나는 일관성 있는 결과였다. 또한, 동 표본기업들의 (자산크기 기준의) 대용변수는 종속변수와 양(+)의 통계적 유의성을 나타냈으며, 이에 대한 추가적인 분석으로서 두 번째 가설관련, 로지스틱 모형의 활용 결과, 동 기업들이 국내 타 지역 소재의 기업들과 비교하여 평균적으로 규모측면에서 상대적으로 작다는 결과가 도출되었다. 세 번째 가설검정에서 '수정 듀퐁시스템'을 응용한 기업들의 금융비용부담률에 대한 분석결과, 충청권 소재기업들의 동 부담률에 관한 3가지 구성요인들(차입금의존도, 차입금평균금리, 총자산회전율의 역수) 중, 첫 번째 요인인 차입금의존도 변수에서만 유일하게 양(+)의 유의성을 보였다. 이는 표본기업들이 비교기업들보다 상대적으로 높은 부채비율을 유지한다는 것을 나타냄을 의미할 수 있으며, 동 결과를 강건성 측면에서 분석할 때 첫 번째 가설에 대한 검정결과와도 수익성측면에서 일관된 논리로서 해석될 수 있다고 판단된다.
