The paper is to estimate the economic value of ecotourism in Anmyeondo tidal wetlands using a double-bounded dichotomous choice (DBDC) model of the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). For the reliability and the validity of CVM a survey was conducted for 511 visitors by personal interview method in Anmyeondo during August 2000, and respondents were asked for maximum Willingness-To-Pay (WTP) to buy a ticket fer the tidal flat's ecotourism. Overall, respondents answered that they would be willing to pay 55,879 won for a ticket under the study. All equations and results estimated are statistically significant at the 1% or 5% level. For the aggregation of WTP estimates, the sample values are extended to the total annual number of visitors in Anmyeondo area during 1998. A conservative estimate, which considers the calibration factor (0.5) recommended by NOAA (1994) and a positive response rate (83.17%), is 73 billion won.

This study attempts to estimate the benefits of using water ensuing from the Chilgap multipurpose reservoir for environmental improvement. The contingent valuation method (CVM) was used to elicit the willingness to pay (WTP) for providing environmental improvement water from the Chilgap reservoir to Daechi-stream and Ji-stream. The DCDB (double-bound dichotomous choice) survey method was used to collect data for the analysis. Due to the usually high cost of increasing the sample size, the use of follow-up questions was implemented as an inexpensive method of improving the efficiency of the estimation. A spike model was used in this study because a number of respondents showed zero WTP. The spike model can be estimated as easily as the conventional model. Results show that the average annual household's WTP is 4,516 won using the conventional model and 8,644 won using the spike model. Applying the estimated average annual household's WTP to the Chungnam and Daejeon regional levels, the benefits of environmental improvement water from the Chilgap reservoir is estimated at 11.9 billion won per year. The temporal benefits of providing water for environmental improvement, for a 50-year period at a 6.0% discount rate, is estimated at about 190 billion won in the Chungnam and Daejeon areas. These results could be useful especially when the government tries to determine an appropriate level of investment and to make a policy related to providing environmental improvement water.

The Korean government considers expanding the WtE share of total energy from 1% to 5% by 2020 through research and development (R&D) in waste-to-energy (WtE) technologies. This study attempts to measure the external benefits of investing in R&D in these technologies. To this end, a contingent valuation (CV) is employed. More specifically, a 2016 national survey of randomly selected 1,000 households was carried out across the nation to gauge the willingness to pay (WTP) for the investment. One-and-one-half-bounded dichotomous choice question was used in the CV survey, and the spike model was applied to dealing with zero WTP responses. The mean yearly WTP is estimated to be KRW 4,175 (USD 3.57) per household, which is statistically significant at the 1% level. Expanding the value to the entire nation translates into an investment of about KRW 79.1 billion (USD 67.6 million), which can be interpreted as the annual external benefit of the R&D investment in WtE technology.

The purpose of this paper is to estimate economic value of multi-functionality roles including landscape and so on, which grassland in Jeju possesses, using Dichotomous Choice Contingent Valuation Method (DC-CVM). Grassland is life cultural heritance of regional residents in Jeju. It has functions like development of favorable landscapes, maintenance of cultural heritage, and recreation/relaxation. Expectation from regional visitors shows that the existence and inheritance value of grassland is higher than we expected. According to the research that we had done from the people that had agreed to contribute grassland. moreover the public commercial value of grassland was not only $397{\sim}419$ billion won but also it will increase an economic gain in every year in Jeju. Therefore, preserving grassland that has multi-functional roles and values can lead to huge economic value in the future in Jeju. Moreover, farm households which are located in the grassland conservation area would be supported $15{\sim}31$ billion won in every year for grassland conservation but it is only $4{\sim}8%$ of the economic value of grassland i.e. $3,971{\sim}4190$ billion won. Thus, grassland preservation policy and plan can raise green-tour commercial value of Jeju area as a long-term inside measurement. Those will have to be propelled continuously.

Blockchain can be highly secured by design and efficient for huge data so that many researchers and practitioners have been interested in blockchain in nature. The principles and applications of blockchain have been investigated by numerous studies and projects, however little is coincident regarding estimating about security investors' additional willingness to pay (WTP) and analyzing relationship with socio-economic characteristics of the investor for blockchain in the securities industry. This study surveyed on 1,000 heads of the household or homemakers that represents population well and estimated additional WTP using one-and-one-half-bounded (OOHB) dichotomous choice (DC) contingent valuation (CV) method. About 63% of respondents had additional WTP for blockchain. The mean WTP was KRW 48,206.92 and the median WTP was KRW 30,967.76. In addition to, the people who are high-income, highly-educated and having more financial asset were more likely to pay extra for their utility from using blockchain. The aggregated additional WTP was about 13% of the 2017 fiscal net income of the security industry. Consequently using blockchain, the strategic developing of securities targeting high-income, highly educated investors having more financial assets can increase commission income, which in turn can increase the company's revenues.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the economic value of installing public Energy storage system (ESS) facilities using a logit regression analysis and Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). We focused mainly on the environmental benefits of ESS and analyzed how the users' attitude toward environmental protection and knowledge of renewable energy affect their Willingness to pay (WTP) Methods: A single-bounded dichotomous choice (SBDC) survey was used to collect the data. We asked participants whether they are willing to pay a randomly presented cost (KRW 100, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 5000, 10000) along with their attitude to toward environmental protection, knowledge of renewable energy, and perceived cost of electric bill. 417 valid samples were collected and used for the analysis. Results: The results of the logit regression show that the initial bid, attitude toward environmental protection, knowledge of renewable energy, and perceived cost of electric bill significantly affect the user's WTP of public ESS facilities. The CVM results show that users are willing to pay KRW 5,049.1/month to install ESS facilities. Conclusion: : According to results, we conclude that the users agree with the need to install ESSs and that environmental benefits of ESSs are important factors for ESS adoption. Therefore, policy makers need to emphasize environmental aspects to install the ESS facilities.

Purpose: This study was conducted to gauge the economic evaluation and sample distribution of conserving the Belum Royal State Park (BRSP) in Perak, Malaysia and to identify factors influencing its use by the community. This study aims to examine community perception on the conservation of the Belum Royal State Park (BRSP) and maximum community's willingness to pay for park entry permits fees. Research design, data and methodology: A questionnaire survey was conducted involving a total of 280 respondents. The study adopted the Dichotomous Choice Contingent Valuation Approach (DC-CVM) and the Logistic Model, to estimate the maximum community's willingness to pay for park entry permits fees. Results: The results established that the factors of respondent's occupation, income, ecotourism influence on the BRSP and maximum entry price, significantly influenced visitors' decision on community's willingness to pay. The average community's willingness to pay was RM9.68 per person. Conclusions: In conclusion, surveillance and patrols in protected areas should be expanded. The extra expense for ensuring safety can be offset through income from ecotourism that should also benefit the local community on economic evaluation and equal distribution on the BRSP.

VMS를 통한 실시간 교통정보 제공에 따른 편익에는 경로 우회에 따른 통행시간 절감과 이에 따른 운행비용 및 환경오염 절감 등의 파급효과 뿐 아니라, 전방교통상황 인지에 따른 심리적 안정 등의 정성적 편익도 함께 존재하며, 도로환경을 첨단화하는 ITS사업의 특성상 정성적 편익의 비중은 상대적으로 높다. 이러한 ITS사업의 특성을 기존의 투자평가지침에 반영하기 위해서는 도로이용자가 인식하는 VMS 교통정보의 기본가치와 같은 정성적 편익에 대한 많은 연구와 이를 인정하는 사회적 공감대가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이중양분 선택형 설문형태의 조건부가치추정법(Contingent valuation Method)을 통해 VMS 교통정보에 대한 도로 이용자의 지불의사액(Willingness-to-pay)을 파악하고, 생존함수를 활용하여 WTP 함수를 추정하는 방법론을 정립하고, 국도에 설치된 도로전광표지판(VMS)을 통해 제공되는 실시간 교통정보에 내재된 기본가치를 추정하여 제시하였다. 또한 교통정보의 기본가치를 ITS사업의 편익으로 고려해야 하는 정책적 필요성과 활용방안에 대해 검토하였다.

정부는 훼손된 해양생태계의 현황 및 원인을 파악하고 생태계 기능 복원 및 손실 방지 전략을 수립하기 위해 해양생태계 복원기술개발 사업의 시행을 고려하고 있다. 사업 시행 여부에 대한 판단을 위해서는 이 사업에 대한 경제적 타당성 분석이 필수적으로 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 조건부 가치측정법(CVM, contingent valuation method)을 적용하여 사업 수행의 경제적 타당성을 분석하고자 한다. 지불의사 유도방법으로 유인일치적인 양분선택형 모형을 이용하되, 지불의사액 추정모형으로 영(0)의 응답을 명시적으로 다룰 수 있는 스파이크 모형을 적용한다. CVM 적용을 위한 설문조사는 미국 해양대기청의 지침에 따라 전국 1,000가구를 대상으로 일대일 개별면접을 통해 2013년에 시행되었다. 분석결과 연간 가구당 평균 지불의사액은 5,414원으로 추정되었다. 이 값을 전국으로 확장하면 향후 5년 동안 연간 약 986억원에 달한다. 이 값과 해양생태계 복원기술개발 사업의 투자비 정보를 이용하여 경제성을 분석한 결과, 순현재가치, 편익/비용 비율, 내부수익률은 각각 3,378억원, 5.20, 65.9 %로 산정되어 각각 0, 1.0, 5.5 %를 상회하므로 이 사업은 비용-편익 분석을 통과한다.
