Abstract

This study explores the determinants of capital structure of the hospitality industry such as hotels, lodging industry and tourism industry using financial data from 2000 to 2019. Several explanatory variables suggested by related theories and past studies were regressed with the dependent variable, debt ratio for the entire sample period, pre-crisis period and post-crisis period and the regression coefficients of the sales expenses, profitability and firm size were found to be statistically significantly negative. Especially the sign of the coefficient of the firm size was opposite to that of the manufacturing industry, which implies the uniqueness of the hospitality industry.

본 연구는 호텔업, 숙박업 그리고 관광업에 종사하는 기업들의 자본구조가 어떤 요인들에 의해서 결정되는가를 탐색하기 위해 2000년부터 2019년까지 한국의 환대산업 기업들을 대상으로 실증적 분석을 하였다. 자본구조이론과 기존연구들에서 제시된 몇 가지 설명변수들을 이용하여 종속변수인 레버리지와의 회귀분석을 하였다. 표본기간 전체와 글로벌 금융위기라는 특수한 기간을 제외하고 그 이전과 이후로 구분하여 분석한 결과, 판매비용, 수익성 및 기업규모의 회귀계수가 각각 통계적으로 유의한 음(-)을 나타냈으며, 이 중에서 특히 기업규모의 계수는 제조기업을 대상으로 한 기존연구에서 보고된 정(+)의 관계와 정반대인 음(-)으로 나타나 환대산업의 특수성을 나타낸 것으로 추정된다.
