Since China opened its market to foreign investors, overseas Chinese firms have been the biggest foreign investors. Because of the uncertain market environment, other foreign finns incurred larger liabilities of foreignness than overseas Chinese finns. Some parts of liabilities of foreignness stem from cultural differences and last for quite long time. Therefore better understanding of Chinese culture and guanxi network can give overseas Chinese finns competitive advantages over those from other countries by offering market information and reducing transaction costs. Also better management skills, information about export markets and abundant capital allow them to maintain competitive strengths over local firms. As foreign firms accumulate market knowledge in China, they can reduce liabilities of foreignness. However, it is very difficult for foreigners to understand Chinese cultures and to utilize guanxi network as well as Chinese. It is likely that Overseas Chines firms can have competitive strengths in some industries such as banking, retailing, and foreign trade, where relationship with local contractors and exploitation of worldwide Chines networks can play important roles to make successful business deals.

This paper analyses technical and economical conditions which activate the use of mobile communication spectrum not to limit the growth of mobile broadband service because of mobile big data traffic and proposes the method which activate the use of mobile communication spectrum. To activate new mobile communication spectrum the expenditure and income of investment should be balanced. The activation of new mobile communication spectrum to process mobile big data traffic depends on technical and economical conditions, internal and external factors of service provider. The investment expenditure is relate to CAPEX, OPEX which is internal factors of service provider and to spectrum price which is external factor of service. The investment income is relate to tariff system which is internal factors of service provider and to spectrum neutrality which is external factor of service provider. The activation of new mobile communication spectrum can be implemented when the investment expenditure and investment income meet the balance including the spectrum price in the investment expenditure and the tariff system which is able to extend network and the income based on traffic increase by external contents in the investment income.

The primary purpose of ITQ (individually transferable quota) is to reduce the overcapitalization problem in the open-access fishery. It has been argued that the least cost-efficient vessels under ITQ may exit first from the fishing by selling their quotas, thereby also reducing the excess capital. The purpose of this paper is to provide a case when ITQ may prompt the exit of less cost-inefficient vessels in the presence of irreversible exit cost which is proportional to the cost-inefficiency. Real option model is adopted in order to analyze the source of hysteresis associated with fishery exit decision. By linking the interaction between vessels' adjustment costs, cost-efficiency of harvest and uncertainty of fishery return, we show that cost-inefficient vessels will not exit always first from the fishery in contrast to the conventional wisdom. Relevant policy implications is discussed.

This study investigates whether and how a firm's cost of equity is influenced by the extent of a firms's name change. Even though corporate name change doesn't give any benefit to investors, it can be a signaling about firm's future valuation. And also, if that signaling has high credibility, it can be decrease information cost and the firm's cost of equity. on the contrary to this, if corporate name change is kind of break with the past and corporate image laundering, it is bad signaling to investors. So it can be increase information risk and the firm's cost of equity. Using yearly cross-sectional regressions of the cost of equity on our proxies for corporate name change, size, beta, market-to-book ratio and other innate risk factor over the 2005-2010, we find that the cost of capital is positively associated with corporate name change after controlling for all other factors. This result implies that corporate name change increase information risk of the business, and thus increase information asymmetries between managers and outside investors with respect to a firm's true future value. This increases information risk, and creates an adverse selection problem, on the part of outside investors. Rational investors therefore demand a premium for bearing this corporate name change-related information risk, which in turn leads us to observe a positive relation between the intensity of corporate name change and the cost of equity.

GWI(2019)에 따르면, 2020년 기준 세계 물시장은 약 996조 원(8,034억 $) 규모로 추정되며, 2024년까지 연평균 3.4%대의 성장을 기록할 것으로 전망된다. 이에 선진 국가를 비롯 글로벌 기업들은 물시장의 선점을 위하여 경주한지 오래이며, 우리 정부는 2000년을 기점으로 물산업 육성관점에서 해외시장 진출을 강조하고 있다. 하지만 국내 기업의 해외시장 진출을 위해서는 무엇보다 중점 육성 분야 및 타겟시장 등의 선정이 필요한데, 이를 위한 분석적 정보는 찾아보기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구는 데이터 기반의 물시장 현황 및 전망을 분석·제공함으로써, 물기업의 중점 육성분야 및 타겟시장 선정에 도움을 제공하고자 하였다. 분석 결과는 ① 사업별 물시장 ② 제품별 물시장, ③ 지역별 물시장으로 구분하였으며, 시장 유형은 자본투자와 운영시장으로 구분하였다.

1997년 말 우리나라의 경제위기는 외화보유고의 부족에서 비롯된 것이나 근본적으로는 1996년부터 시작된 한보, 삼미, 기아그룹 등 우리나라 재벌기업의 연쇄도산으로 대변되는 기업의 실패에서 기인하였다. 지난 30년 간 빠른 성장을 지속해 온 우리나라 기업이 90년대 후반부에 총체적 부실의 위기에 직면하게 된 것은 기업외적인 요인보다도 과다차입과 과잉투자, 전근대적인 지배구조 등의 기업 내부적 요인에서 주로 기인한 것으로 지적되고 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 기업실패의 원인으로 지적되는 과다차입과 과잉투자는 문제에 대한 정밀한 진단 없이 국민정서에 부응하여 인구에 회자되는 면이 없지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지난 40여년간 높은 부채비율을 유지하면서도 고도성장을 지속해 온 우리나라 기업이 왜 90년대 말에 와서 그것으로 인하여 도산하게 되었는지에 대한 심층적인 분석을 도모하고자 하였다. 분석 결과 우리나라 기업의 연쇄도산은 80년대 말 이래 급격하게 변화된 영업환경으로 인하여 기업의 영업위험이 커진 것이 직접적인 원인으로 작용하였으며 높은 부채비율은 총위험을 줄이지 못했다는 점에서 기업도산의 간접적인 배경을 형성한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 우리나라 기업이 지난 30여년간 투자수익이 자본비용에 못미치는 것으로 드러나 과잉투자를 해 온 것은 사실이나 과잉투자의 배경은 일반 물가상승률을 크게 상회하는 높은 지가상승에 있었으며 또한 80년대까지 정부의 성장에 대한 인센티브와도 직결되어 있었다.

In this paper, we analyse empirically the effects of financial characteristics on the relationship between R&D investment and market value of firms listed on Korea Exchange. The main results of this study can be summarized as follows. Firm size increase the market valuation of R&D investment because it provides economies of scale, easier access to capital market, and R&D cost spreading. Market share also positively effects the relationship between R&D investment and firm value. Alternatively, free cash flow has a negative effect on the relationship between R&D investment and firm value because firms with high free cash flow could be tempted to use the free cash flow to undertake negative NPV projects. The dependence on external finance is a handicap negatively assessed by the market when firms undertake R&D projects due to the higher information asymmetry associated with this kind of project. Labor intensity has a negative effect on the relationship between R&D investment and firm value because the abnormal profits arising from R&D investment are diluted among employees. Capital intensity also has a negative effect on the relationship between R&D investment and firm value due to the greater financial constraints faced by capital intensive firms. In conclusion, several financial characteristics(firm size and market share) positively effect the relationship between R&D investment and firm value, while others(free cash flow, dependence on external finance, labor intensity, and capital intensity) exert a negative effect. Therefore, we conclude that the effectiveness of R&D investment depends on these financial characteristics.

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
