The valuation of biodiversity is a fundamental step in conservation. The useful framework for analysing the economic value of biological resources is that of total economic value (TEV) and TEV comprises both use and non-use values, the former related to an actual use made of the resource, the latter to a willingness to pay for the resource independently of any use made of it. There are several valuation approacher in environmental economics literature. However, stated preference approach should be introduced for valuation of biodiversity because it can estimate non-use value as well as use value. Contingent Valuation and Conjoint Analysis are representative methods in stated preference and Conjoint Analysis can be more useful for valuation of biodiversity. Futhermore, the combination of ecology and economics to assess biodiversity leads to an integrated framework. Thus, interdisciplinary work is required, involving both economists and ecologists transferring elements or even theories and models from one discipline to another and transforming them for their specific, mutually consistent purpose.

The emergy concept was used to valuate the contributions of a tidal flat ecosystem included in the fourth stage reclamation plan for the Youngsan River area to the Korean economy. Emergy contributions of the ecosystem were compared with those of economic valuations performed on the same ecosystem. The tidal flat ecosystem contributed 3.55 million EmW/ha annually. This, however, cannot be compared directly with those of the economic valuations because both methodologies approach the valuation of ecosystems in different perspectives. The emergy methodology is a donor-based valuation in which what goes into making a product or service is measured, while the economic valuation is a receiver-based approach in which human receivers determine the value of an ecosystem product or service. An emergy valuation was conducted for the three ecosystem functions included in the economic valuations to compare the results of both methodologies on the same basis. Fishery production and pollutants removal contributed 9.86 million EmW/ha/yr and 0.88 million EmW/ha/yr, respective1y. The conservation value of the tidal flat ecosystem was 3.55 million EmW/ha/yr. Overall, the emergy valuation that try to include works of both human and nature on the same basis resulted in higher economic contribution of the tidal flat ecosystem than that calculated by the economic methodologies in which only human works are measured based on the willingness-to-pay of people. This study showed that the emergy concept could provide an alternative tool for policy decision-making regarding utilization and conservation of ecosystems by approaching the ecosystem valuation from a different perspective than that of economic methodologies.

본 연구는 사용자 경험(UX)에 대한 경제적 가치 평가 모델을 탐색하고 적용하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 스마트폰 잠금해제 UX를 대상으로 터치형, 지문인식, 홍채인식에 대해 조건부 가치측정법(contingent valuation method, CVM)을 적용하였다. 경제적 가치를 산출하기 위한 가치추정법 중에서 조건부 가치측정법을 선택한 이유는 잠금해제와 같은 인터페이스 요소들은 스마트폰을 이용할 때 중요한 사용자 경험적 가치이지만 시장에서 별개로 거래되지 않는 비 시장 재화이기 때문이다. 스마트폰 잠금해제를 조건부 가치측정법 중 이중 양분선택형 방식(double-bounded dichotomous choice)으로 설문조사하여 로짓 모형으로 분석한 결과 터치형 잠금해제 인터페이스는 529원, 지문인식 잠금해제는 4,214원, 홍채인식 잠금해제는 1,376원으로 경제적 가치가 나타났다. 즉, 지문인식 잠금해제가 가장 높은 경제적 가치를 나타냈으며, 그 다음으로 홍채인식, 터치형 순이었다. 이 연구의 주요 기여점은 UX 디자인에 대해 경제적 가치를 평가하는 방법론적 시도를 수행하였고, 체계적이고 신뢰도 있는 결과를 산출하였다는 점이다.

This study attempts to suggest an economic analysis model for SNG projects, which can reflect the future uncertainty objectively and applies the real option valuation incorporating the flexible investment decision. Based on this analysis model, net present value and internal rate of return were estimated by using preliminary feasibility study report of SNG project. And economic evaluation of SNG project was performed with real option valuation using binomial option model. Through this, the difference of analysis results between the real option valuation model and the discounted cash flow model were compared and the usefulness of the real option valuation model was confirmed. From the actual proof analysis, it is confirmed that the real option valuation model showed higher SNG project value than the discounted cash flow model did. It was confirmed that by applying the real option valuation model, economic analysis can be performed on not only the current straightforward SNG project, but also various future portfolios having options such as expansion, modification, or decommission.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the attractiveness value according to the preference level on architectural aesthetic. This research starts from the concept that aesthetic is phenomenon and from the viewpoint of 'attraction value' which affects goods. Interactive internet surveys were conducted for 500 citizens of Seoul metropolitan city who are potential users of the Nodle Islet Cultural Center. Based on the scenarios and questionnaires with fuzzy models, we have examined the evaluation of architectural aesthetic and monetary willing-to-payment, and estimated the economic value by preference level of architectural aesthetic through linear regression analysis. The main results of the study are as follows: First, the economic value of the Nodle Islet Cultural Center was estimated at ?15,683.43/person. Residents of Seoul metropolitan city were willing to accept the increase in the above-mentioned amount of the facility fares when their preferred works (average 86.81 points) were constructed. (P <0/05) Second, it is confirmed that the economic value increases dramatically as the preference level of architectural aesthetic increases. Third, it is presumed that the infinite valuation of architectural aesthetic and the problem of free riding coexist in the estimation of economic valuation of architectural aesthetic for public buildings. Fourth, by mixing the fuzzy logic with contingent valuation method, starting point bias and no response biases that happened in contingent valuation could be disappeared. bias elimination must be considered seriously because another bias could be happened in full process of the research. The results of this study will serve as a basis for spreading architectural aesthetic value-oriented research from the vague and obscure aesthetic-centered discussion on the existing architectural aesthetic. In addition, it will be an opportunity to draw institutional application and utilization strategy of architectural aesthetic through architectural aesthetic value research.

This paper was conducted to study the economic valuation for Nursery-Phase production of the tidal flat oyster in Korea. Benefit-cost(B/C) model used to indicate the effects of economic valuation. Using discounting rates(i.e., 4.5%, 6.5% and 8.5%), the model compared revenues and costs that occur at different times from 2012 to 2018. This study also estimated various submodels, which are Benefit Cost Ratio(B/C ratio), Net Present Value(NPV), Internal Ration of Return(IRR), to compare profit of Nursery-Phase production styles and analyzed returns to evaluate the scenarios. Sensitivity analysis were conducted for various scenarios. The results suggest as follows. First, the oyster spat to the shell height of 3~5cm was more profit than the shell height of 1~3cm. Second, all of sensitivity analysis with submodels were economic valuation such that B/C ratio > 1, NPV > 0 and IRR > discounting rate. Third, the payback period was about 3years after installed Nursery-Phase production system.

This study aims at integrating economic tools and remote sensing for environmental impact valuation of the Isahaya Bay Wetland (IBW). In doing so, we have used potential behavioral economic valuation technique: contingent valuation method and satellite remote sensing technique: land cover mapping. From the results of the study, we are able to bracket a range of values from (22 to 200 billion yen) for arriving at the true economic value lost due to the initiation of reclamation project on the IBW and would provide a new dimension to get nearer to the more accurate environmental impact assessment.

도서관과 도서관 서비스의 가치는 전통적으로 긍정적으로 인식되어 왔다. 도서관 가치의 경제성 측정은 이러한 가치를 보다 구체화시키고 도서관의 다양한 이해관계자들이 공유할 수 있게 되었다는 점에서 유용하다. 본 연구는 도서관 경제성 측정과 관련된 다양한 이론 연구 및 측정 사례를 포괄적으로 정리, 분석함으로써 향후 이 분야 연구의 중요한 토대를 마련하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 국내 18건, 해외 71건 총 89건의 문헌을 추출하였고, 이를 정리, 비교, 분석하였다. 또한 도서관 가치의 계량화와 관련된 제반 문제들을 검토하고 기존에 수행된 도서관 경제성 평가 연구를 체계적으로 분석, 제시하였다. 도서관의 가치 측정과 관련된 연구는 1990년대 중반 공공도서관의 가치에 대한 이론적 탐색 작업으로부터 시작하였다. 2000년대 초반의 경제학적 가치측정 방법을 공공도서관에 적용하기 위한 이론적, 방법론적 검토를 거쳐 2000년대 중반 이후에는 검토된 방법론을 적용하여 실제로 그 가치를 측정하는 연구로 발전하였다. 도서관 경제성 평가와 관련된 제반 연구들을 분석하고 종합한 결과 방법론과 응용의 일관성이 부족하여 유사한 연구가 반복 검증되고 있으며, 평가결과의 비교와 연구결과의 적용 능력을 제한하고 있는 것으로 나타나고 있다.
