This study examines the effect of the wedge between voting rights and cash flow rights of controlling shareholders on the implied cost of equity. Prior studies posit that controlling shareholder's voting rights exceeding cash flow rights causes expropriating minority shareholders. Using date from 793 group-affiliated Korean firms for 10 years from 2005 to 2016, the result shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between controlling shareholders' wedge and implied cost of equity. This result implies that investors regard the controlling shareholders' wedge as potential agency cost in which they require additional risk premium because controlling shareholders have a strong incentive to pursue their private interests trough tunneling practices.

Korean public service broadcasting(PSB) is facing identity crisis and debate on improving PSB governance. In order to analyze the causes of the crisis of PSB, We attempted to typify the constituent factors of governance of PSB based on the perception of public service broadcasting employees and media professionals. The results of the study are summarizes as follows. First, PSB' governance is typified by four factors such as market influence, political influence, professionalism, and guarantee of PSB system. Secondly, it is analyzed that only political influence among PSB governance factors has a significant effect on the perception of crisis of PSB. Thirdly, it is analyzed that the way of constituting the KBS board and the ratio of personnel have a meaningful influence on 'political influence'. The results of this study confirm that Korean PSB needs to improve the governance structure of PSB away from political influence in order to secure the legitimacy and identity.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the world rice market through structure and conduct frameworks utilizing annual data from 1970 to 2007. The world rice market has been unstable for much of the period post-World War II, with prices volatile and the availability of supplies uncertain. Therefore, analysis of the structure and conduct of the world rice market can provide information to better formulate the direction of future policies. Also, this paper will describe the effects of total production, export rice price, market concentration, and real exchange rate for exporting countries on total export rice volume. On basis of the expected results, the international rice market possesses market power with respects to static calculation and hypothesis test, and it will be demonstrated that exporting countries' currency crucially affects the exporting quantity and market power of those same exporting countries.

This paper investigates the determinants of total factor productivity(TFP) growth in Korean logistics industry such as market share, ownership structure, age of firm, firm size and debt ratio. Using financial data on individual firms in Korean logistics industry, we first estimate firm-level TFP growth rate and then, regress the estimated TFP growth rate on individual firms market power and structural characteristics. Our empirical results show that logistics firms market share is negatively correlated with their TFP growth rate. Also, we find that older or larger firms are more likely to have higher TFP growth rate.

TWBP 도매전력시장의 개설과 더불어 도입되는 PPS&RMS 하의 계약 제도는 전력시장가격 안정화 및 발전사업자의 수익 보장 등 여러 가지 목적이 있지만 그 중에서도 시장점유율이 높은 한수원의 시장지배력 완화 역시 도입 목적 가운데 하나이다. 한수원은 설비용량 기준 30%, 공급량 기준 40%의 거대 발전사업자이므로 시장지배력 행사에 대한 잠재적 가능성이 존재하기 때문에 시장초기에 PPS&RMS를 도입하여 공급 물량의 95%를 계약으로 묶게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 환경적 요인을 반영하여 현재 우리나라의 전력시장 현황을 분석한 다음, 2004년 베스팅 계약이 적용되었을 경우 한수원의 시장지배력 가능성에 대해서 분석해 본다.

The purpose of study is to advance current smartphone research past the limitation it faces being focused primarily on functional performance and to understand the causes of Smartphone diffusion. In order to do this, the dominant design concept was applied in examining the relationship between the determinants of the dominant design and the acceptance of smartphones. The research has yielded results which show that determinants such as technological superiority, number of installed based products, and availability of complementary goods have a positive effect on the intention to use smartphones and the attitude toward its use. Moreover, this study has contributed in broadening the understanding of dominant design by introducing the central concepts of dominant design which are not being dealt with in domestic studies and presenting the major variables which must be considered in the acceptance of smartphones.

This paper examines the effects of dominating large shareholders and foreign blockholders on credit ratings. An effective governance mechanism is expected to lead to higher credit ratings through its impact on default risk of the firm. Our results show that dominating large shareholders have an adverse impact on credit ratings of domestic firms on the level of its statistical significance. Foreign shareholders are positively associated with credit ratings, contributing to the higher credit worthness of domestic firms.

본 연구는 수직적 유통거래 관계에서 거래의 불공정성을 발생시키는 선행요인과 결과요인에 관한 모형을 겁증하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 기존 연구를 바탕으로 거래의 불공정성의 개념을 도입하고, 실증적으로 검증하여 향후 거래의 불공정성 연구에 응용될 수 있는 기반을 마련하고자 하였다. 또한 시장지배력이론과 거래비용이론을 적용시킴으로서 거래의 불공정성에 대한 보다 폭넓은 이해를 위해 노력하였다. 이러한 연구목적 달성을 위하여 문헌연구를 통해 가설을 도출하였으며, 국내 소비재 제조기업 표본 258를 대상으로 실증분석을 하였다. 제조업체의 브랜드 자산이 높을수록, 거래의 불공정성은 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 제조업체와 유통업체간의 상대적 의존성이 높을수록 거래의 불공정성은 증가할 것이라고 결과가 도출되었고, 마케팅협력정도가 높을수록 거래의 불공정성은 감소할 것이라고 나타났다. 거래의 불공정성이 증가할수록 관계지속기대감은 감소할 것이며, 거래의 불공정성이 증가할수록 신뢰는 감소할 것이라는 결과가 도출되었다. 연구결과를 기반으로 본 연구는 이론적 시사점, 실무적 시사점, 연구의 한계점 그리고 미래 연구방향에 대하여 논의하였다.
