In recent years, the world's free trade system has been severely damaged by a series of protectionist measures in the United States and anti-globalization practices such as Brexit. Against this background, RCEP, the world's largest trade agreement, was officially signed on November 15, 2021. The RCEP provided a good working basis for the establishment of a Korea, China, and Japan free trade zone. First, this paper describes the current status of Korea-China-Japan trade cooperation and the current status of the trilateral telecommunication industry. Second, this paper simulates the changes in the overall economy of China, Japan, and Korea when tariffs are reduced to 0%, 5%, and 10%, respectively, after the establishment of a free trade zone using the 8th edition GTAP database. Then, using the simulated data changes and using the 2019 data as a benchmark, we calculated the changes in the RCA index for the three countries' telecommunications industries for the three tax rates. In the end, it is concluded that the economies of the three countries will grow to different levels in many ways when the Korea, China, and Japan free trade zone is established. Japan's telecommunications industry will not be significantly affected, Korea will grow significantly with higher tax rates and China will grow significantly with lower tax rates.

중소기업 가업 승계를 원활히 하기 위해 일정 요건을 갖춘 경우 상속.증여세를 감면하는 제도가 시급히 도입돼야 한다는 주장이 제기되고 있다. 이오 관련 정부에서도 중소기업의 가업승계를 원활히 할 수 있도록 세제를 개편할 움직임을 보이고 있다. 정부는 최근 이르면 내년부터 가업을 상속할 때 내는 상속세 공제한도를 '5억원 또는 상속 재산 대비 10% 이내' 로 확대하는 방안을 추진한다고 밝혔다. 김태년 의원 주최로 최근 국회에서 열린 중소기업 가업승계 지원을 위한 토론회에서 중소기업연구원 신상철 연구위원은 "상속세는 중소기업 활동에 지장을 초래하는 것을 최소화하는 방향으로 개선돼야 한다"고 말하고 "이 세제가 가업승계 저해요인이 돼선 곤란하다" 고 덧붙였다. 다음은 이날 토론회에서 신상철 박사가 발표한 내용을 요약한 것이다.

In this study, by extending the model proposed by Fullerton and Kim(2006), we explored the tax interdependency effect to examine the relationship between environmental tax and economic growth. The theoretical model shows that environmental tax cannot always stimulate economic growth if other taxes such as labor or income tax are distorted by environmental taxes. However, environmental tax can boost economic growth if cutting distortionary taxes offset the distortion of taxes, or improvement of abatement knowledge can sufficiently reduce the cost of production. An empirical analysis using 14 OECD countries shows a positive relationship between the increase of implicit energy tax rate and the increase of implicit income tax rate. Meanwhile, empirical analysis does not provide enough evidence to claim that the increase of implicit energy tax decreases implicit labor tax. We can presume that environmental tax policy in Europe did not necessarily mitigate the burden of labor tax.

This study proposed scenarios of tax reform regarding taxation on bituminous coal for power generation since July 2015 and July 2014, estimated its impact on SMP, settlement price, tax revenue from year 2015 to year 2029. These scenarios are compared with those of the standard scenario. To estimate them, the power system simulation was performed based on the government plan, such as demand supply program and the customized model to fit Korea's power system and operation. Imposing a tax on bituminous coal for power generation while maintaining tax neutrality reducing tax rate on LNG, the short-term SMP is lowered than the one of the standard scenario. Because the cost of nuclear power generation is still smaller than costs of other power generation, and the nuclear power generation rarely determines SMPs, the taxation impact on SMP is almost nonexistent. Thus it is difficult to slow down the electrification of energy consumption due to taxation of power plant bituminous coal in the short term, if SMP and settlement price is closely related. However, in the mid or long term, if the capacity of coal power plant is to be big enough, the taxation of power plant bituminous coal will increase SMP. Therefore, if the tax reform is made to impose on power plant bituminous coal in the short term, and if the tax rate on LNG is to be revised after implementing big enough new power plants using bituminous coal, the energy demand would be reduced by increasing electric charges through energy tax reform. Both imposing a tax on power plant bituminous coal and reducing tax rate on LNG increase settlement price, higher than the one of the standard scenario. In the mid or long term, the utilization of LNG complex power plants would be lower due to an expansion of generating plants, and thus, the tax rate on LNG would not affect on settlement price. Unlike to the impact on SMP, the taxation on nuclear power plants has increased settlement price due to the impact of settlement adjustment factor. The net impact of energy taxation will depend upon the level of offset between settlement price decrease by the expansion of energy supply and settlement price increase by imposing a tax on energy. Among taxable items, the tax on nuclear power plants will increase the most of additional tax revenue. Considering tax revenues in accordance with energy tax scenarios, the higher the tax rate on bituminous coal and nuclear power, the bigger the tax revenues.

This paper considers a heterogeneous agent dynamic general equilibrium model and analyzes effects of an increase in labor income tax rate on labor market and the aggregate variables in Korea. The fiscal policy regarding how the government uses the additional tax revenue may take the two forms: 1) general transfer and 2) earned income tax credit (EITC). The model features are as follows: 1) Workers are heterogeneous in their productivity. 2)Labor is indivisible, hence the analysis focuses on the variation in labor supply through the extensive margin in response to a change in fiscal policy. 3) The incomplete markets are introduced, so individual workers can not perfectly insure themselves against risks related to stochastic changes in income or employment status. 4) The model is of general equilibrium, hence it is equiped to analyze the feedback effect of changes in aggregate variables on individual workers' decisions. In the case of general transfer policy, the government equally distributes the additional tax revenue to all workers regardless of their employment states. Under this policy, an increase in the labor income tax rate dampens work incentives of individual workers so that the aggregate employment rate decreases by 1% compared with the benchmark economy. In the case of EITC policy, only employed workers whose labor incomes are below a certain EITC ceiling are eligible for the EITC benefits. Unlike the general transfer policy, the EITC induces low-income workers to participate the labor market to be eligible for EITC benefits. Hence, the aggregate employment rate may increase by 2.7% at the maximum. As the EITC ceiling increases, too many workers can collect the EITC but the benefits per worker becomes too little so that the increase in employment rate is negligible. By and large, this study demonstrates that EITC may effectively raise the aggregate employment rate, and that it can be a useful policy tool in response to the decrease in the labor force due to population aging as observed in Korea recently.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 자본비용 추정에 대한 신뢰성 및 정확성에 대한 비판에도 불구하고 주로 미국과 일본 등을 중심으로 기업전체를 대상으로 한 과거의 연구에서 벗어나 한국의 상장기업을 대상으로 좀 더 미시지적이고 정교한 자본비용을 추정하는 데에 있다. 1981년 이후 1994년까지 계속 상장되어온 190여개 상장업체의 재무제표를 사용하여 각 기업별 자본비용을 추정함으로써 산업별(업종별) 그리고 5대(大) 계열기업군, 6대(大)${\sim}$30대(大) 계열기업군, 기타 대기업, 그리고 중소상장기업 등 기업규모별에 따른 자본비용의 정도를 비교 분석하였다. 자본비용의 추정과정에 있어서도 가능한 한 각 개별기업의 재무제표 항목들을 자본비용의 개념에 적합하도록 재구성하고, 법인소득세율을 이익수중에 따라 차등 적용하는 등 기존의 자본비용의 추정에 관한 연구에 비해 좀 더 정교한 자본 비용의 추정을 시도하였다.

Since the transportation taxes were imposed on gasoline and diesel in 1994 for the purpose of financing the special projects, such as the construction of highways or railroads, the rates have been frequently and rapidly changed in case of need to stabilize prices or secure public fund, contrary to its own purpose. This paper presents a theoretical model for a special purpose tax based on the minimization of the dead weight los incurred by the imposition of the tax. A computable static model for the tax rate is developed and estimated for a various range of target level of total tax rebenue. The results shows that, under tax revenue of 40 trillion won, the rates for the year of 1999 are 385.2 won for one liter of gasoline and 198.4 won for one liter of diesel. The estimated gasoline rate is no more than about 59% of the current rate. However, the rate for diesel turns out to be 24% higher than the current level.
