Abstract

The purpose of this study is to measure profit efficiency in the domestic shipping industry and to examine the factors determining that efficiency. Empirical results indicate that the shipping industry's short-term profits heavily depend on physical input factors, specifically capital stock. Notably, a 1% increase in capital stock leads to a 0.84% increase in short-term profits. In terms of secondary determinants, effective management of financial indicators representing stability, profitability, and growth can reduce profit inefficiency. Additionally, larger scale correlates with higher profit efficiency, indicating the need for expansion of water transportation companies. Given the rapid increase in profit efficiency in the ocean-going shipping industry since 2020, tailored support and investment are necessary.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 해운업을 대상으로 이윤효율을 측정하고 그 이윤효율을 결정하는 요인들을 살펴보고자 함이다. 실증결과에 의하면 해운업은 단기이윤이 물적 투입요소인 자본스톡에 크게 의존하는 형태를 보여 주었다. 특히 자본스톡의 1% 증가는 0.84%의 단기이윤을 증가시킨다. 2차결정요인에서 안정성, 수익성, 성장성을 대표하는 재무지표를 잘 관리할 경우 이윤비효율을 낮출 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 규모가 클수록 이윤효율이 높으므로 수상운송기업의 규모확대가 필요하다. 2020년 이후 외항운송업의 이윤효율이 빠르게 증가하므로 이에 대한 맞춤형지원과 투자가 필요할 것으로 보인다.
