In 2015, Constitutional court of Korea declared that the Resident Registration Act was unconformable to Constitution. Therefore, the Resident Registration Act have to amend the article before 2018 for allowing to change one's Resident Registration Number. The most expensive cost to change one's Resident Registration Number System is the uncomfortable cost of changing the Number. This study invests the uncomfortable cost of changing the Number by Willingness to pay Method. In result, the cost of changing all 13 numbers would \ 160,000, the cost of changing 7 numbers would \ 108,000, and the cost of making Second Registration Number would \ 110,000. This result could be used to analyze the B/C ratio of changing the Resident Registration Number System.

수자원사업에 따른 수질개선편익은 사업으로 인해 저감되는 오염원의 양을 예측하고, 그에 따른 수질개선효과를 계량화한 값이며, 이는 곧 해당사업의 가치로써 정의된다. 이러한 수질개선편익을 산정하기 위한 방법에는 개인의 지불의사를 추정하여 가치를 추정하는 조건부가치측정법(CVM)과 해당 사업에 따른 효과를 기술적 방식으로 대체할 때 소요되는 비용을 시행사업의 가치로 평가하는 방식인 대체비용법을 들 수 있다. 현재 조건부가치측정법은 다양한 분야의 사업에 대한 가치추정법으로 널리 쓰이고 있으나, 해당사업의 가치에 대한 공학적이고 직관적인 해답을 줄 수 있는 대체비용법의 적용성은 아직까지 미미한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 수질개선편익을 중심으로 대체비용법의 분석절차와 적용성을 확인하고자 하였고, 이에 대한 사례연구로서 댐증고사업을 대상으로 하였다. 수질개선편익과 같이 환경적 질을 높이는 사업은 대상사업의 가치를 추정하는 데 많은 어려움이 있으며, 기존에 주로 사용된 조건부가치측정법과 더불어 대체비용법을 이용한 검토는 보다 객관적인 의사결정을 지원하는 데 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.

폐기물 오염문제에 대한 국민적 인지도가 높아지면서 폐기물 처리시설에 대한 주민의 반대는 최근 커다란 사회적인 문제로 등장하고 있다. 혐오시설인 매립장의 입지를 반대하는 현상은 개인의 효용을 중시하는 경제주체의 경제행태 논리상 무시할 수 없는 현상이다. 주택가격과 주택까지의 거리와의 함수관계를 파악함으로써 주변지역주민들의 매립장 기피의사를 파악하고자 하였다. 추정결과 주택가격으로 지불하는 금액을 통해서 주민들이 매립장을 피하기 위해 부담하고자 하는 의사는 유의성이 있었다. 비용부담의사는 매립장과 가까이 거주할수록 높았고, 거리가 멀어짐에 따라 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

Traffic congestion causes enormous social costs as well as loss of travel time and waste of energy. Though the Seoul metropolitan government implemented various forms of transportation policies such as urban road pricing and public transportation reform, traffic volume which across the Seoul metropolitan borders have greatly increased because of housing land development in suburban area. The purpose of this study is to estimate individual's willingness-to-pay(WTP) for extensive implementation of congestion pricing through policy-mix with bus rapid transit(BRT) system. So the field survey interviews carried out. The empirical analysis was done with priority given to the following two topics; derivation of individual WTP and prior evaluation of policy effect from the equity aspect. To estimate individual WTP, we adopted contingent valuation method (CVM). The former is to estimate individual WTP for respondent's maintaining his/her transit pattern when he/she is faced with congestion pricing by using compensating variation(CV) concept. And, the latter aims at evaluating policy effect from the equity aspect by calculating the Proportion of WTP to average income using WTP in income bracket for policy scenarios.

Contingent Valuation Method (CVM), as non-market valuation approach, has been criticized on that respondents may not realistically reflect their budget constraints in answering willingness to pay (WTP) for hypothetical CV questions. This paper empirically estimates the income calibration factor associated with CV responses through combining travel cost method and contingent valuation method in a utility-theoretic framework. The joint model of recreation demand function and contingent WTP function was applied to an important case study on the Man Kyoung River system, whose water quality is at issue because of the Sae Alan Kum reclamation project. Relevant economic variables such as price, income and water quality had significant influence as anticipated by the economic theory. Equally important, the income calibration factor was not significantly different from one, suggesting that the systematic discrepancies of CV responses relative to the actual behavior was not detected at least in terms of budget exaggeration. Overall, this study supports the notion that carefully designed CVM studies can provide informative data on individuals' willingness to pay for environmental quality changes.

Willingness-to-pay (WTP) for pork produced by quality test was determined using a contingent valuation method. Three model studies including a dichotomous-choice and two double dichotomous-choice types were conducted. The respondents in this study appropriately understood the contingent valuation and the suggested price was significant as a characteristic variable. The results imply that there is lower chance to select pork produced by the quality test, as the price difference is greater between conventional and quality-tested pork. WTPs in double and single contingent valuation models were 735 and 547 won/100 g, respectively. WTP was increased with increasing the educational level of respondents. The average WTPs analyzed by convariate were 1,015 won/100 g for double contingent valuation and 580 won/100 g for single contingent valuation. Considering the minimum price of WTP of pork produced by quality test (547.4 won/100 g), the total economic value was estimated to be 5,173,600 million won and per capita customer value was 106,000 won. Therefore, providing an institutional strategy for pork quality test will be beneficial for the consumers.

Using the developed wedding planner selection criteria scale, this study examined whether wedding planner selection criteria differ according to consumer characteristics such as demographic characteristics and wedding preparation behaviors. The main survey for this study was conducted via the Internet with 295 consumers aged 20-30 living in the Seoul metropolitan area. The data collected from the survey processed and analyzed using the statistical programs SPSS 21.0 t-test. Analyzing how wedding planner selection criteria differ according to consumers' demographic characteristics and wedding preparation behaviors, results shown for the wedding planner selection criteria were all four points on average except for individual characteristics and important sub-factors regardless of the consumers' characteristics, and various results were derived depending on the consumers' characteristics. This study has various practical implications in that it verified the difference in wedding planner selection criteria according to consumer characteristics and determined how much money consumers were willing to play for wedding planners. It is recommended that future studies take various approaches to investigate how wedding planner users are satisfied with or place importance on wedding planner services and conduct empirical using the selection criteria developed in this study to compare influential variables that affect behavior intention and willingness to pay according to consumer type.

This study estimates the WTP for the plan of solving deforestation due to limestone mining and calculates that damage cost using contingent valuation method. As the results of analysing a dichotomous choice CV data, the yearly mean WTP per household for the plan is 5,045 won(95% confidence interval : 3,729~6,360 won) in single bounded CV model and is 4,361 won(95% confidence interval : 3,710~5,012 won) in double bounded CV model. The damage cost of deforestation due to limestone mining can be estimated as 55.3% of WTP for the plan which is assigned to restoring the deforestation area to the original or similar alternative state. The average yearly deforestation cost of 1 ha due to limestone mining is reached 20.90 million won(95% confidence interval : 16.53~25.27 million won). And the asset value of that 1 ha damage is 160.02 million won(95% confidence interval : 126.56~193.49 million won). The fact is found that the damage cost of deforestation using replacement cost method is likely to be underestimated. The total damage cost of deforestation because of limestone mining in 3 cities (Donghae, Samcheok, Yeongwol) is 204.0 billion won(95% confidence interval : 161.4~246.7 billion won) which is composed of 26.5% for Donghae, 28.9% for Samcheok, and 44.6% for Yeongwol according to the damage size of deforestation due to limestone mining in 3 cities.

The Korean government is considering implementation of the marine ecosystem restoration technology program (MERTP) to analyze the current status of the marine ecosystems and causes for the ecosystem deterioration as well as to eventually establish a master strategic plan for restoring ecosystem functions and preventing ecosystem functional loss. In order to determine likelihood of successful implementation, it is essential to perform an analysis of the economic feasibility of the program. The present study assessed economic feasibility of the MERTP. To this end, the dichotomous choice contingent valuation (CV) method is used. In particular, dichotomous choice (DC) format is employed as a method of eliciting willingness-to-pay (WTP) response to incentive-compatible mechanisms. The study also employed the spike model to deal with zero WTP responses from the DC CV survey. This survey of 1,000 randomly selected households in accordance with the guidelines provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (USA) was carried out nationwide in 2013. And, the respondents were asked in person-to-person interviews about their WTP for implementing the MERTP. The results showed that the annual mean WTP was estimated to be 5,414 won per household. Consequently, the annual benefit from the MERTP would be about 98.6 billion won for the next five years. Economic feasibility assessment utilizing the MERTP investment cost and expansion cost of the value provided that net present value, benefit/cost ratio, and internal rate of return are 337.8 billion won, 5.20, and 65.9 %, respectively, which are bigger than 0, 1.0, and 5.5 %, and that the MERTP passes the cost-benefit analysis.

본 연구는 2012년 시행할 예정인 신재생에너지 공급의무화제도(RPS) 하에서 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 추가비용 발생 시 국민들이 RPS 제도의 목표 및 형태에 대하여 어떤 선호를 가지고 있으며, RPS 제도에 대한 소비자들의 만족도를 높이기 위한 개선점이 있는지 알아보고자 수행되었다. 이에 소비자 선호를 조사하는 대표적인 연구방법론인 조건부가치평가법(CVM)을 활용하여, RPS 제도 하에서 발생 가능한 소비자 선호, 구성요소 합산효과 및 지역별 선호의 차이의 3개 주제에 대한 연구를 3차례 설문을 통해 수행하였다. 해당 연구의 주요 내용을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라 국민들의 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 WTP는 가구당 1,456~1,560원/월 수준으로 이는 우리나라 가구당 월 평균 전기요금의 약 3.7~3.5% 수준에 해당한다. 이를 토대로 추산한 신재생에너지 전력 이용에 대한 국민들의 편익은 2011년 신재생에너지 보급 관련 예산의 42.4% 정도인 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 국민들은 에너지원의 선택에 대한 비용 차이가 있을 시에는 개별 신재생에너지원을 대체재(substitutes)로 인식하였다. 그러나 에너지원의 선택에 대한 비용 차이가 없는 경우에는 특정 신재생에너지원에 대한 선호를 보이며, 특히 태양광에 대한 선호도가 가장 높게 도출되었다. 셋째, 소비자들의 선호도에 따른 재생에너지 포트폴리오를 적용한 결과, 우리나라 국민들은 연 2,618~2,806 GWh 규모의 신재생에너지 전력을 생산하는데 소요되는 추가비용을 지불할 의사가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 2010년도 우리나라 전체 전력 수요의 0.62~0.66% 정도로 RPS에서 목표로 하는 의무비율을 이행하기에는 부족한 것으로 보인다. 넷째, 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 선호는 지역별로 다르게 나타났다. 이는 지역 간 저항응답의 비율, 재생에너지 시설 인근 경험 및 재생에너지 시설 입지에 대한 찬반의사 등의 지역별 차이에서 기인하는 것으로 분석되었다.
