Abstract
In this paper, the cost-benefit analysis is used to compare policy alternatives on whether the Korea National Museum of Contemporary Art should be incorporated or not. Alternative 1 (Current State) is to remain as it is. Alternative 2 (Incorporation State) is to change its legal status from government agency into incorporation. To make the process of incorporating, some assumptions are introduced: (1) no labor workforce reductions, (2) wage increase, (3) keeping publicness. These assumptions reduce the resistance from worker and provides them incentives to accept the incorporating process. Those assumptions also reflect the direction of policy of the government. After estimating the net present values of each alternative, it turns out that the NPV of Alternative 2 (Incorporating State) is larger than that of Alternative 1 (Current State). This result holds after doing sensitivity test using different discount rates.
