Purpose: This study is conducted to identify the impacts of tax exemption on community benefit, policy, human resource management, and public benefit. Based on the results of analysis, we explore several avenues to raise public benefit that is central to the value of existence of non-for-profit hospitals in Korea. Methodology: Survey was formulated referring to the US IRS tax exemption criteria, Form990/Schedule H, and Korean public hospital criteria. A total of 182 survey responses were collected and used to verify measurement validity and perform reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and path analysis. Findings: The result of this study showed positive relationships among; i) tax development and planning, ii) planning and human resource management, iii) human resource management and policy, iv) policy and community benefit, v) community benefit and public benefit. Practical Conclusion: Tax exemption affects community benefit and public benefit directly as well as indirectly. This implies that expanding tax exemption is likely to improve public benefit mediating community benefit.

The quantitative evaluation method of the safety management cost was suggested to prevent a gas accident as a major industrial accident. In a gas governor station, process risk assessments such as the fault tree analysis(FTA) and the consequence analysis were performed. Based on process risk assessments, potential accident costs were estimated and the cost-benefit analysis(CBA) was performed. From the cost-benefit analysis for five classification items of safety management cost, the order of the cost/benefit ratio was estimated.

Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the economic efficiency of a community-based nursing care center to help policy makers determine whether or not to invest in similar facilities. Methods: The subjects were 101 elderly people over 65 years who participated in a health management program from February 1 to July 31, 2007. Direct cost was estimated with center operations cost, medical cost for out-patients and pharmacy cost. Indirect cost was measured by transportation cost. Direct benefit was calculated by saved medical cost for out-patients, saved pharmacy cost, saved transportation cost, and reducing hospital charges. Indirect benefit was estimated with prevention of severe complications. Economic efficiency was evaluated by cost-benefit ratio and net benefit. Results: Operating a community-based nursing care center was found to be cost-effective. Specifically, the cost of operating the center evaluated here was estimated at 135 million won while the benefit was estimated at 187 million won. Benefit-cost ratio was 1.38. Conclusion: The Community-based nursing care center that was described here could be a useful health care delivery system for reducing medical expenditures.

There is a rapidly growing expansion of internet-based infrastructure throughout industries in Korea. The internet-based Electronic Purchase and Supply System(EPSS) is being considered a supportive tool to increase the economic efficiency of hospital management. In this study, we conducted an economic evaluation of the system, analyzing data on four hospitals in Korea. According to the results, four hospitals was estimated to make net benefit of about 611 million Won in one year and about 2,809 million Won in the next five years. Further, the adoption of all hospitals in Korea to the system may generate net benefit of about 31,575 million Won in one year and about 166,938 million Won in the next five years. Furthermore, we expect that as the system covered many kinds of inputs in hospitals like pharmaceuticals, the benefit of the system would go up by a considerable degree.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the costs and benefits of home nursing care services between public health centers (PHC) and private hospitals. Method: Participants were 105 patients who had received home nursing care services from a private hospital or public health center. From a societal perspective, the researcher identified the costs and benefits of the services using performance data and calculated the net benefit and benefit/cost ratio. Result: The net benefit of the home nursing care service based in the PHC was 165.9 million won and benefit/cost ratio was 2.0, while the net benefit of the home nursing care services by the private hospital was 141.1 million won and benefit/cost ratio was 1.7. Both types of programs were economically validated. Conclusion: Home nursing care services were basically efficient as the results showed a positive net benefit. A cost-benefit analysis indicated that the PHC-based home nursing care services were more efficient than that of the private hospital. With limited human resources and management standards in public health centers, results suggest the need for a more systematic management of the home nursing care service to improve the health of this vulnerable community population.

A reliability-based cost-benefit model for the risk management of oil platforms in the formulation of optimal decisions based on life-cycle consideration is proposed. The model is based on structural risk assessments and the integration of social issues and economics into the management decision process. Structural risks result from the platform's exposure to the random environmental loading associated with the offshore site where it is located. Several alternative designs of a typical platform are proposed and assessed from the cost-effectiveness viewpoint. This assessment is performed through the generation of cost/benefit relationships that are used, later on, to select the optimal design.

Purpose: The objective of this study is to verify the economic validation of quality management integrated train freight car by analyzing economic evaluation indicators such as benefit and cost, net present value, and inter rate of return. Methods: First, we itemize benefit and cost field by reviewing literatures; Benefit consists of 1)Safety, 2)Operation, and 3)Maintenance; Cost consists of 1)Set-up fee, 2)Wireless internet fee, and 3)Cloud storage using fee. Second, based on these estimated values, we conduct an economic evaluation analysis. Among them, benefit and cost, net present value, and internal rate of return are selected. Results: As a result, all estimated values are highly over criterion of economic validity($$B/C{\geq}_-1$$, $$NPV{\geq}_-0$$, $$IRR{\geq}_-R$$); 1)benefit over cost ratio is 28.22, 2)Net present value is 8,121.66million KRW, and 3)Internal rate of return value is 2272%. Conclusion: The findings of this study will help making a decision when train industry adopts IoT technology for improving the effectiveness.

사회기반시설물을 포함한 구조물은 수명유지 또는 연장을 위하여 적절한 점검과 유지보수가 필수적이다. 이러한 점검과 유지보수는 일반적으로 생애주기비용 평가를 통해 관련 계획이 수립된다. 본 논문에서는 구조물의 생애주기비용과 그 사용으로 인해 발생되는 이익을 고려하는 확률론적 비용-이익분석과 이를 통한 구조물 최적수명 결정 방법을 다루고자 한다. 생애주기비용은 구조물 초기 제작/건설비용, 유지보수 비용과 구조물 파괴로 인한 예상손실을 고려하게 된다. 일반적으로 구조물의 수명연장은 생애주기비용의 증가를 유발하나 사용기간 증가로 인해 발생되는 이익 또한 증가하여, 이를 최적화하는 수명관리에 관심을 가질 필요가 있다. 생애주기 평가에 있어서 유지보수 적용이 구조성능, 구조물 파괴확률 그리고 수명에 미치는 영향을 확률론적 방법을 적용하여 평가하며, 이를 통해 생애주기비용과 이익의 차이를 목적함수로 구성하게 된다. 이 목적함수가 최대가 되는 지점이 설계변수인 구조물 최적수명이 되는데, 최적화문제 구성에 있어서 제한조건의 변화에 따라 유지보수 계획수립도 가능하다. 본 논문에서 다루어지는 구조물 수명관리 최적화기법이 안전성과 효율성을 동시에 고려하는 사회기반시설물 수명관리에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

In this study, based on the principal-agent paradigm, we investigate a joint cost reduction activity in a buyer-supplier supply chain where a buyer motivates its operations department and a supplier to reduce the supply chain's production cost. We construct a benefit-sharing model based on the target cost scheme, a basic philosophy in practice which has not been explored in previous studies. The model also incorporates various supply chain issues such as the cooperation of multiple agents, the opportunity loss, and the degree of strategic relationship between the buyer and the supplier. Based on the analysis of the principal-agent model, we investigate the benefit-sharing rule to control agents' actions, and we also provide important managerial implications into supply chain practices via extensive comparative static analyses.
