The study provides new empirical evidence on the level of profit efficiency and returns to scale of the Bangladesh banking sector. We employ the Slack-Based Data Envelopment Analysis (SBM-DEA) method to assess the level of profit efficiency of individual banks over the years 2004 to 2011. The empirical findings indicate that the Bangladesh banking sector has exhibited the highest and lowest level of profit efficiency during years 2004 and 2011 respectively. We find that only eight banks have been profit efficient throughout the period under study. The empirical findings seem to suggest that most of the Bangladesh banks have been experiencing economies of scale due to being at less than the optimum size, or diseconomies of scale due to being at more than the optimum size. Thus, decreasing or increasing the scale of production could result in cost savings or efficiencies.

This study aims to analyze the economies of scale of the cottage industry for coconut sugar production in Banyumas, Indonesia. This study applies a survey method to coconut sugar craftsmen. Data analysis was performed by regression analysis based on the Cobb-Douglas production function approach. The findings indicated that decreasing returns to scale was a problem for the domestic production of coconut sugar. These findings show that the production of coconut sugar is not very productive. Labor and financial capital inputs have a significant positive share but the resulting increase in output is less proportional than the increase in the two inputs. Social capital, experience, and education do not affect industrial performance. To increase input productivity and production efficiency, it is necessary to apply more effective production techniques and technologies to produce quality products so that the selling price can be higher. Additionally, it is required to enhance the sap's quality through its extraction methods and the regrowth of high-yielding coconut tree varieties. From the institutional aspect, the development of this industry requires stronger partnerships with related parties such as local governments, exporting companies, cooperatives, and universities through research and development.

This paper analyzes the efficiency of social enterprises by analyzing bootstrapping data envelopment analysis. Unlike the definitive DEA model, we analyze the confidence intervals of efficiency estimates through the DEA model, which takes into account stochastic factors. Major analysis results are summarized as follows: First, the results of the bootstrapping DEA analysis of social enterprises estimated that the technical efficiency was 0.459 and the 95% confidence interval was 0.389 to 0.601. Second, the number of inefficient social enterprises with efficiency values of less than 0.5 was found to be 15 (55.56%) in technical efficiency, 5 (18.52%) in pure technical efficiency, and 8 (29.63%) in scale efficiency. It can be seen that a significant number of social enterprises are operating in an inefficient state. Third, looking at the returns of scale of social enterprises, 25 (67.57%) are currently in the increasing returns of scale, 10 (27.02%) are in the constant returns of scale, and 2 (5.41%) are in decreasing returns of scale. In other words, it can be seen that social enterprises are under-invested in terms of input factors.

발전부문의 부분적인 민영화 이후 전력의 도매가격은 한계가격(system marginal price)으로 결정되고, 이 가격은 발전사의 발전량에 의해서 달라지기 때문에 발전사 입장에서는 완전히 외생적으로 결정되는 가격이라 보기 어렵다. 본고는 Harrison(1994), Levinsohn(1993) 등이 개발한 시장의 완전경쟁성이 유지되지 않을 때에도 기업의 생산성 변화와 규모수익성, 마크업률 등을 분석할 수 있는 모형을 한국의 화력발전소 자료에 적용하였다. 분석결과 규모수익은 거의 없으며, 마크업률은 발전소의 사용 에너지 유형에 따라 크게 다른 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 완전경쟁시장을 가정하는 통상적인 분석법에 비해 발전소의 생산성 변화율 계측치도 상당한 정도 차이를 보였다.

It has been one of the critical issues that the researchers properly evaluate the fishing rights foregone by the coastal development activities like wetland reclamation. Particularly, estimating the productivity of concerned fishing rights is known to play a significant role in their monetary compensation. As a result, this paper attempts to develop a statistical model characterized by Cobb-Douglas production function in conjunction with the fisheries' productivity estimation. The primary hypotheses involving their statistical production function are as below : 1. The quantity of fisheries production is hypothesized to be expressed as a function of capital (K) and labor(L) put into fishing activities. 2. The estimated parameters of K and L are hypothesized to satisfy the conventional condition of production function as a form of Cobb-Douglas. These statistical tests reveal that the shellfish farming productivity heavily depends on the acre of mariculture while the input of labor force also considerably affects its productivity. In case of the fixed net fishing productivity, both the factors of capital and labor similarly affect the marginal change in its productivity. En addition, the productivity of shellfish (arming turns out to follow the increasing returns to scale, whereas that of fixed net fishing comes up with the decreasing returns to scale.

Purpose - On the basis of discussing the network economy concept and the commentary of the marginal revenue decreasing of traditional economic theory, The concept of network economy has just been put forward in recent years. The reason why such a concept appears is that the information technology, marked by computer network, plays an increasingly important role in economic activities. Some people define network economy as an economic form based on network technology and human capital. this paper points out network economy existing the marginal revenue increasing and analyzes the reasons that influencing the marginal revenue increasing. Research design, data, methodology - The network economy has fundamentally changed the traditional economic laws. The economic basis of industrial society is the law of incremental marginal cost, which reflects the socialization of high cost in industrial society. Results - As the number of network members increases, the value of the network increases explosively, and the value increases attract more members to join, resulting in more returns. Conclusion - In conclusion, network economy has changed many aspects of traditional economy, resulting in decreasing marginal cost, decreasing transaction cost in and out of enterprise organizations, and making the effect of increasing scale compensation more prominent. This is of great significance to the information construction in China.

슘페터식 혁신은 이제 제조, 서비스산업을 넘어 농산업에서도 나타나고 있다. 농산업은 과거 가족농 중심의 단순생산체제를 탈피하여, 생산과 유통 전반으로 기업화되어 가는 경향이 나타나고 있는데, 이는 농산업부분에서의 낮은 생산성과 부가가치를 제고하기 위한 생산방식과 조직형태의 혁신이라고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구는 우리나라 농산업의 새로운 시도로 도입된 농업법인 그중에서도 농업생산법인의 생산성 수준을 파악하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하기 위하여 자료포락방법의 개선된 형태인 부트트래핑 자료포락방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주요 발견점은 다음과 같다. 분석대상 농업생산법인 중 효율성 값이 1인 효율적인 법인 수는 18.06%에 불과하며 효율성 값이 0.5 미만인 비효율적인 농업생산법인 수는 기술효율성에서는 30.92%, 순수기술효율성에서는 18.93%, 규모의 효율성에 있어서는 3.32%로 나타나 상당수의 농업생산법인이 비효율적인 상태에서 운영되고 있다. 이러한 분석결과는 농업생산법인이 농산업의 생산성 향상을 위한 방안으로 도입되기는 했지만 실질적 생산성 정도는 저조하다는 것을 의미하는 것으로, 농업생산법인의 생산성 제고를 위한 정책적, 전략적 차원의 개선책이 모색되어야 함을 보여 시사한다.

The Korean life insurance industry has undergone profound changes, such as the beginning of the variable insurance in July 2001 and the bancassurance enforcement in August 2003. However, little empirical research has analyzed data that includes the bancassurance of life insurance companies operating in Korea. In response to this lack of research, this paper applies DEA (data envelopment analysis) models to measure and decompose their efficiency. We discovered that life insurance companies operating in Korea are a little different in their composition ratio of inputs and outputs, due to the increased variety of distribution channels and new products. We provided efficiency scores, return to scale, and reference frequencies. We also decomposed CCR, BCC, and SBM efficiency into scale efficiency and MIX efficiency. So, we try to investigate whether the sources of inefficiency were caused by the inefficient operation of DMU, disadvantageous conditions, the difference of the composition ratio in inputs and outputs with reference sets, or any combination of the above. Most companies in the sample display had either constant or decreasing returns to scale. The efficiency rankings were less consistent among models and efficient DMUs. In response to this problem, we used the super-efficiency model to rank them and then compared the rankings of the DMUs among the various models. It was also concluded that the availability of panel data, rather than cross-sectional data, would greatly improve the validity of the efficiency estimates.
