In this paper, we develop the cost minimization model to select two incentives and total order quantity with consideration of remanufacture company's return incentive. Return rate is sensitive to the incentive that the manufacture company offers. Using a EOQ(Economic Order Quantity) model of a cost minimization, we show concavities of the model about two incentives and total order quantity respectively. According to the proposed algorithm using the concavities, we find out the optimized incentive prices and total order quantity. Through numerical study, we examine sensitive analysis of the incentive price and order quantity for each parameter when the return rate is sensitive to incentive. Company lessens incentive to reduce total price. However, this makes the total price increase due to a diminution of return quantity. We expect that domestic or overseas remanufacture businesses are able to decide optimal incentive and total order quantity by this research.

Making efforts to break down the barriers between the intra-company departments as well as cooperating with external partners can become the driving force to create a successful innovation in the new product development (NPD) process. This study deals with how the key factors of collaborative innovation success are working in the process of NPD collaboration. Using case analysis of the NPD process, where a large retailer and small and medium-sized suppliers cooperate, we found that the small and medium-sized suppliers achieved greater 'short-term' performances in the collaboration than the large firm, although the long-term performance is not clear. Among the six antecedents of innovation success, relationship-specific investment played a critical role in motivating the supplier's participation in the NPD process. Adopting a 'closed' network in which the two suppliers interact directly with each other and create new knowledge for the NPD process played an important role in producing a quality product in a reduced development time. Unlike previous studies about the retailer-supplier cooperation for NPD in the food industry suggesting that position differences cause communication problems which is a major obstacle to the NPD success. This study suggests that large retailer's initiative role is a critical success factor in the NPD by the cooperation between small and medium-sized suppliers and large retailers.

Generally, electricity market has monopoly market structure because of need of enormous investment for infrastructure. However, the introduction of competition in network industry as electricity is a tendency of the world with decreasing the effects of economy of scale due to the advancement of technology. Now, electricity industry restructuring is in progress but the competition in electricity retail market is not in force yet in Korea. Whether a effective competition exist or not is very important to policy decision maker who drive restructuring, but there are small numbers of quantitative researches on that. In this study, we estimated the effectiveness of competition in the electricity retail market through switching costs. If switching costs are high, consumers actually can be locked in incumbent firm in spite of introduction of competition. Therefore switching is a critical factor to determine effectiveness of competition and to estimate the size of switching costs quantitatively can proffer the information about whether the competition in the electricity retail market is effective or not in the future. We estimated switching costs using consumer' stated-preference data by conjoint analysis. In according to estimation results, the cost of switching process is not so high, but the relative brand loyalty of an incumbent company is significantly high. And the price is considered as the most important factor choosing an electric service commodity. Based on the empirical results, it is possible to analyze the relationship between suppliers' competitiveness resulted from management efficiency and customers' switching possibilities. The paper therefore provides guidance for suppliers in deciding to enter into retail competition and for policy makers in introducing retail competition. And it has a significance of estimating the switching costs directly.

1990년 중반 이후 외국계 기업과 국내 대기업의 적극적인 유통산업진출은 중소 소매업을 어렵게 하고 있다. 또한 대기업 편의점의 급속한 확장 역시 골목상권 환경을 열악하게 하여, 중소 소매업 점포수의 폐점을 가속화하고 있다. 2003년 중소 소매업의 경쟁력 강화 및 자생력을 확보하고자 정부는 중소유통공동도매물류센터(이하, 중소유통물류센터)를 건립하였다. 하지만 급변하는 유통환경과 온라인 쇼핑의 급속한 발전 속에서 중소유통물류센터는 갈수록 점점 어려워지는 현상에서 중소유통물류센터의 역량강화를 위한 현상분석 및 문제점 도출을 통하여 경쟁력 강화 및 효율적 운영방안을 위한 전략을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper considers an incentive regulation in the telecommunications industry with respect to the sale of retail and access services. This regulation scheme induces the monopoly carrier who owns bottleneck facilities to adopt socially optimal outcomes when providing access and retail services. It is well known that upstream carriers can realize an integrated level of profit, without integration, by means of a two-part tariff. First, this paper introduces a framework for regulating an access and retail price combined with budget balancing. Second, this paper introduces two-part tariff (price discrimination) scheme for both access (upstream) and retail (downstream) services and discusses the resulting implications for incentive regulation when the regulator has incomplete information about cost functions. By imposing a self-selection mechanism, the regulator can induce firms to adopt socially optimal prices in both access and retail markets.

The beauty industry of China POP-UP store service, has entered the peak development period. This paper takes China Estee Lauder POP-UP store as an example, based on the user experience of interactive marketing mode in Beauty POP-UP store under the new retailing model. The paper aims to establish a system interaction design process integrating online and offline to help enterprises complete the sustainable development of marketing services. To achieve this goal, this study uses questionnaires to investigate the key elements of user experience, customer journey map to determine the user pain points, and completes the design of the new system process. This process can provide designers with a new perspective through experimental verification, with high timeliness and practicability. It also promotes the collaborative optimisation and upgrading of physical retail and online retail and provides theoretical support and practical basis for other enterprises.

글로벌 시대에 있어서 우리나라 귀금속 분야의 국제적인 경쟁력을 높이기 위해서는 전자상거래를 도입하여 유통경로를 간소화하고 거래의 투명성을 확보하는 것이 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이는 각 기업의 경쟁력제고 및 소비자를 보호할 수 있으며, 국가 자원 관리적 측면에서도 효율성을 기할 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 관점에서 본 논문에서는 귀금속 소비재 분야의 B2B 전자상거래 모델을 쥬얼리코리아의 사례를 통해 제시하였다. 쥬얼리코리아는 귀금속 소비재 부문의 e 마켓플레이스를 구성하여 귀금속 생산업체가 각각 독립적인 입점업체로 참여하고, 국내 소매상과 해외바이어가 구매자로 참여하여 기존의 메이커(제조업체)-도매상-중상인-소매상의 4 단계 유통경로를 축소하여 각 생산업체에서 소매상간 직거래가 가능하도록 하는 것이 핵심이다. 여기에 금, 나석 등 원자재 공급업체와 각종 설비 및 기계장치의 공급업체, 귀금속 제조관련 교육기관, 여행사 등이 참여하여 다양한 제품 정보와 서비스를 제공함으로써 기존의 폐쇄적인 유통체계와 정보체계를 해소하고 귀금속의 종합적인 정보창고로서의 역할도 수행한다. 또한 해외바이어 정보와 Inquiring 정보, 해외쥬얼리쇼정보 등을 제공함으로써 해외시장 개척과 수출 증대에도 기여한다.
