This study estimated indirect economic benefits of the introduction of Korean Spatial Information System. Korean academic society has been reluctant to consider indirect benefits as an item of benefits in cost-benefit analysis. Nevertheless, other countries including England recommend to consider some indirect benefits like option value as an important item of cost-benefit analysis, especially in the case of transportation projects. This study estimated indirect benefits of the introduction of Korean Spatial Information System using Contingent Valuation Methods: Indirect benefits of the project are so significant in terms of statistics and substantial in terms of magnitude that decision making can differ from the case without consideration of such indirect benefits.

치수사업에서 실시하는 경제성분석은 계획하고 있는 사업의 사회적 후생의 극대화 측면에서 경제적 타당성을 분석 평가하는 것으로서 일반적으로 편익${\cdot}$비용분석이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 경제성분석시의 문제점으로 직접편익뿐 아니라 간접편익 및 비계량편익에 해당하는 사업의 효과도 편익부분의 계산에 포함할 수 있는 방법이 필요한 실정이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 홍수에 의한 교통두절로 인한 피해를 간접편익으로 고려하여 오산천지역에 적용해 보았다. 교통두절피해 편익의 항목으로서 주로 차량운행비용 절감과 통행시간비용 절감의 두 항목을 고려하였으며, 이 두 항목에 내한 결과에서 홍수지체시간당(단위 1일당) 적지 않은 편익이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 일반적인 치수사업 경제성분석에서 이뤄지지 않았던 교통두절에 의한 피해항목을 간접편익으로 고려함으로써 홍수로 인한 교통두절피해를 정량적으로 계량할 수 있었으며, 실질적으로 편익에 영향이 가장 큰 편익가치(재화가치, 시간가치)에 대한 연구가 계속적으로 수반된다면 이후의 다른 치수사업 경제성분석시에 효과적인 분석이 이뤄질 것으로 판단된다.

Focused in the characteristic of R&D on Geoscience and Mineral Resources as basic research area, we survey on methods of public works' economic impact analysis including cost-benefit analysis and resent technology evaluation methods and suggest apply-methods to conduct economic impact analysis on R&D of geoscience and mineral resources. To conduct economic impact analysis on the basic research area, it need to identification research's out-come not just output. In this perspective, we propose a method, Input-Output-Outcome Roadmapping to identify the outcome of R&D and show the relation of input, output, and outcome of R&D. Furthermore, noticing the different effects of R&D from public works, we directly evaluate the use-value of the academic theory or geological maps through Contingent Valuation Method(CVM) and others developed as evaluation methods on environmental goods. In indirect application methods, it can evaluate the partial of the pubic works' benefit with assuming R&D factors if R&D is a part of public works. If not, we evaluate the R&D's value as reductions of costs or additions of benefit with finding related public works.

The safety and health ledger system, which gives the responsibility of safety and health management for construction site workers to the construction project owner, was introduced as part of the overall revision of the Occupational Safety and Health Act. There is a need to explain the system's effectiveness in terms of economic feasibility to solve the execution problem of the system caused by low awareness and implementation rate. In this study, the economic effect of implementing the safety and health ledger system was analyzed using cost-benefit analysis based on the data discussed at the time of the introduction of the system. Results show that creating and managing the design safety and health ledger caused additional costs in implementing the system. As a result of comparing the cost of preparation and the direct and indirect benefits caused by the reduction of industrial accidents, the benefits were evaluated higher than the costs. Thus, it is thought that the safety and health ledger system reduces construction work accidents and generates economic effects.

농업부문이 사회에 제공하는 다양한 긍정적 외부효과가 인정됨에 따라, 대부분의 농업생산기반시설은 국부를 증진시키는 사회간접자본으로 인식되고 있다. 과거에는 수리시설을 비롯한 기반시설이 단지 생산성 향상을 위한 사회적 투자로 간주되었으며 따라서 사업에 대한 경제성 분석 또한 직접적인 경제적 효과에 대한 편익비용분석에 국한되었다. 그러나 최근에는 농업 및 생산기반시설이 제공하는 비시장적 가치가 점차 인정됨에 따라 그러한 가치 또한 경제성분석에 포함될 수 있다

국가과학기술연구망(KREONET)은 초고성능 슈퍼컴퓨팅, 그리드(Grid), e-Science 등 국내의 첨단 과학기술분야에 관한 연구 개발을 지원하고 있는 국가연구망(National Research Network)이다. 그러나 국가연구망이 국가연구개발 사업의 전반에 걸쳐 직 간접적으로 많은 영향을 미침에도 불구하고, 이러한 파급효과에 대해 체계적인 분석이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 KREONET에 대한 경제성 분석을 통해 국가과학기술과 산업발전에 미치는 파급효과를 분석하고자 한다. 분석방법으로는 KREONET의 존재 유무에 따른 비용편익분석과 산업연관분석을 사용하였다. 비용편익분석의 평가지표로는 순현재가치, 비용편익비율, 내부수익률을 사용하였고, 산업연관분석의 평가지표는 생산유발효과, 부가가치 유발효과, 취업유발효과를 사용하였다. 분석한 결과, KREONET은 경제적 파급효과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과를 다른 연구망에 적용하기 위해서는 보다 다양한 범주의 평가범위와 평가방법에 대한 연구가 지속되어야 할 것이다.

In case of low benefit project with low traffic or high-priced project, existing analysis of cost and benefit tends to present a low feasibility. However, considering the improvement of environment, intensification of disaster prevention, public stability of countryside area and formation of good scenery, these projects can have a feasibility. This paper analyzes and summarizes the indirect benefit of some ripple effects, caused by road projects, and presents the methodology and process in order to change the indirect benefit into monetary value.

The GIS(Geographic Information System) projects require big initial investment and cost of maintenance. Decision makers would not launch GIS projects unless they are convinced of the benefits of the projects. Therefore the purpose of this paper is to develop an appropriate model for GIS project evaluation. We proposed a GIS project evaluation model and summarize the steps involved in Cost-Benefit Analysis(CBA). The costs of a GIS implementation include hardware and software cost, costs of database development, training expenses, annual maintenance expenses, and other annual expenses. The benefit by using GIS has been assessed into Type I(direct benefits), Type II(indirect benefits), Type III(benefits that result from the sale of information services), Type IV(intangible benefits).

Recently, as there are a rise in the standard of living and higher concerns of an electromagnetic wave and environment, undergrounding the aerial cables which are supported by large pylons and generally considered as the least attractive feature of an urban area is on an increasing trend to improve aesthetic benefits and electric reliability. This study applied Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) which is expected to become an effective tool to measure indirect benefit to estimate the substantial benefits of undergrounding overhead power line projects in an urban area. The tunneling construction project of the 345kV Shinsungnam electric power cable in Seongnam city was selected and a hypothetical scenario was given to respondents to determine their levels of Willingness to Pay (WTP) for undergrounding overhead power lines. The result from the estimation of the WTP of undergrounding overhead power lines in Seongnam city was calculated as approximately 17.1 billion won. Placing existing overhead lines underground is difficult to justify economically. Most undergrounding costs appear to be justified by aesthetic and public policy considerations. Therefore, considering the result of this study, undergrounding overhead power lines is of great benefit to public.

An economic evaluation was conducted using cost-benefit analysis for an integrated service platform of open access research articles. The data needed for benefit measurement were collected by conducting a series of surveys to service beneficiaries, including 1,313 academic researchers, 49 bio-industry researchers, and 102 researchers in various industries. Cost-benefit analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted after estimating the total costs for system construction and operations, anticipated direct and indirect benefits. With respect to the cost-benefit analysis limited to direct benefits, the estimated benefit was KRW 82 billion, which is about 14 times of the total costs for eight years of the entire business period. With respect to the cost-benefit analysis for both direct and indirect benefits, BCR was estimated to be about 98.9 and NPV to be KRW 538.8 billion, indicating that economic feasibility of the project was sufficiently secured. The results of this analysis may help securing the investment to the integrated service platform for OA research products, and the benefit estimation model developed in this study would be utilized as an assessment tool during the rest of this project.
