Abstract
We introduced mathematical economic analysis model for understanding the fairness of charge from VoIP providers for interconnection of access network. In order to set up this model we made four assumptions predictable in the real world. Also we proposed two accounting method that is flat-rate-pricing and usage-based-pricing and tried to propose which method is more desirable to charge for interconnection on the basis of social welfare and activation of market competitiveness. The outcome of this study includes the reasonable accounting method for interconnection between telephone network and IP Phone network which is most effective to ensure the social welfare and market competitiveness
