In recent research there has been intense interest in understanding how real option valuation (ROV) approaches might usefully complement conventional discounted cash flow (DCF) techniques. However, investment decision makers in a real world have been worried about adopting the ROV approaches mainly because of difficulty in technically understanding the theory of the ROV approaches as indicated by many researchers. With this difficulty in mind, we propose the opportunity cost model as another discrete-time model to value a deferral option. The main advantage of observing a real options value in terms of the opportunity cost concept is to provide a technique for practitioners to estimate a wide range of real options values without sticking to a financial option modelling. The fundamental ground for developing the opportunity cost model proposed in this paper lies in the work of dissecting the structure of the real options value into three categories: capital gain, expected opportunity loss, and expected opportunity gain. At the end of the paper, we will present a short illustrative example to demonstrate the applicability of the model.

The focus of this study is to investigate the effect of earnings management and audit quality on the cost of equity capital and also examines whether audit quality acts as a moderating variable for the effect of earnings management on the cost of equity capital. The population in this study are companies from the consumer goods industry sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2016-2018 period. This sector was chosen because it is a sector that is able to survive in conditions of economic decline, so it becomes a good investment opportunity in the future. The sample selection was carried out using purposive sampling technique. By using the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) technique, the results show that earnings management has a positive effect on the cost of equity capital. Conversely, companies with good audit quality will bear lower cost of equity capital. The moderating hypothesis test results show that audit quality moderates the effect of earnings management on the cost of equity capital. This means that, even though the company carries out earnings management, investors have more confidence in the results of audits conducted by qualified auditors so that the cost of equity capital is low.

EVA(Economic Value Added) is a management performance evaluation tool that determines whether a business is earning more than its true cost of capital. Leading corporations like Coca-Cola, AT&T and Briggs&Stratton have set up EVA measurement systems throughout their organizations. EVA reflects opportunity cost of equity ignored in calculating accounting profit and emphasizes the efficiency of capital employed by measuring how much the manufacturing and selling activities produce the economic profit in excess of cost of gross capital. In this paper, we define the concept of EVA and present an example to show the usefulness of EVA.

Most of Korean broiler farms are constructed with vinyl houses. Such types of broiler farms might be cheaper in terms of cost, but poor in terms of environment condition. According to enlargement of broiler farm size, high value production systems or automatic facilities are introduced in this field. However, investment may not always guarantee the profit of the management. Therefore, it is necessary to undertake the investment analysis before decision making for the investment. Under the assumption that 870 Pyoung(≒$3.3㎡) of a broiler farm within 1,740 Pyoung(≒3.3㎡) of land is built with the producing capacity of 50,000 heads of chicken in a time. The total investment is calculated to be 600 million won(1,000 won≒$1.1), and out of them 58.1% is provided by the owner, 31.6% from the government loan, 5.8% from government subsidy, and 5.3% from other agencies or banks. The expected profit of the broiler farm is 64.6 million won(1,000 won≒$1.1) per year. The IRR calculated is 0.0808 which means that the rate to profit of this project would be 8.1%. This also means that for this investment the interest rate of the capital provided should be less than 8.1% per year. Considering that the current opportunity cost of the own capital is 8.5% this project is not so attractive for those who is going to build broiler farms mainly with their own capital. In other words this project would not be profitable, unless the average interest rate of the loans provided for this project is less than 8.1% per year.

In recent years, there have been attempts to explain firms' capital structure based upon the agency theory which considers agency problems arising due to ownership structure. Agency theory starts from the coctractual relationship (explicit or implicit) between principals and agents. Since uncertainty exists in real world and information is distributed asymmetrically, there are conflicts between principals and agents. The objectives of this study are to analyze, based upon agency theory, factors which are expected to affect firms' capital structure and to test empirically the relevance of agency cost hypothesis about the determination of capital structure, For these purposes, this paper carried out multiple regression in order to examine whether the factors of agency costs affect significantly the determination of capital structure. The results of empirical analysis are summarrized as follows; First, insider-equity ration has been negatively correlated with capital structure. Second, growth opportunity variabless has been insignificant coefficients with capital structure.

본 연구에서는 자사주매입이 처음으로 허용된 1994년 5월 1일부터 2005년 12월 31일까지 자사주매입기업을 대상으로 잉여현금흐름가설을 검정하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 자사주매입기업은 통제기업보다 수익성이 증가하지 않았으며, 성장기회 감소에 따라 투자지출을 감소시키고 자사주매입을 통해 현금보유도 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자사주매입 기업은 체계적 위험과 투자지출의 감소에 따라 자본비용이 감소하였다. 그리고 자사주매입기업은 수익성이 증가하지 않는데도 불구하고 자본비용이 감소하기 때문에 주가는 유의한 양(+)의 반응을 나타냈다. 이러한 연구결과를 종합하면, 선행연구에서 검정된 저평가에 따른 정보신호가설과 경영자 기회주의 가설에 이어 잉여현금흐름가설도 한국증권시장에서 부분적으로 지지된다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 기업이 성숙기에 이르러 수익성 감소, 투자지출과 현금보유 감소, 체계적 위험과 자본비용 감소를 겪고 있는 기업은 잉여현금흐름을 줄이기 위해 자사주매입을 하는 것이 유리할 수 있다.

This paper aims to estimate the social discount rate (SDR) rather than dig into its theoretical foundation. As SDRs can be derived by investigating both the rate of return on investment and the social time preference rate, we estimate the marginal productivity of both private and public capital and the time preference rate based on the Euler equation. In order to provide a single representative SDR, the weighted averages of the marginal productivity and time preference rate, whose weights are determined by the flow of funds data reflecting the social demand of funds, are presented. Based on the empirical results, we argue that the marginal productivity of private capital stands in the middle of the 3% range while that of public capital varies from 4.5% to 8.6%, with the time preference rate showing a decreasing trend from 3.2% in the early 2000s to 1.2% by around 2030. The single representative SDR or the weighted SDR is estimated to be approximately 3.0~4.5% and expected to continue its downward trend for the foreseeable future.

In this paper we analyze the effect of the credit period on inventory policy under trade credit with ordering cost including a fixed cost and freight cost, where the freight cost has a quantity discount. For marketing purposes, some supplier offers credit period to his buyer to stimulate the demand for the product he produces. The delay in payments during the credit period has the effect of reducing the buyer's capital opportunity cost. It is also assumed that the buyer pays the freight cost for the order and hence, the ordering cost consists of a fixed ordering cost and a variable freight cost which depends on the order quantity. As a result, the possibilities of trade credit and discounts on freight costs are expected to play an important role in the buyer's inventory policy. Based on the economic order quantity inventory model, we analyze how the buyer can determine the optimal inventory policy and we examine the effect of the length of credit period on the buyer's inventory policy.

본 연구는 Mincer와 Ben-Porath의 최적인적자본 축적모형을 이용해서 외환위기 이후 급증한 이공계 석 박사 학위 졸업자들의 미취업 사태를 완화하고자 도입된 정부의 인턴연구원 지원사업이 동 사업으로 혜택을 받은 석 박사 학위자들의 인적자본 축적에 어느 정도의 영향을 미쳤는지를 분석하였다. Tobit모형을 사용한 추정 결과에 따르면 인턴사업에 의한 인적자본 투자수익률이 인턴사업의 특성과 지원 대상인 고급과학기술인력을 분석 대상으로 하고 있다는 점을 감안한다면 투자수익률이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 정부가 미취업 고급인력의 인적자본의 진부화(obsolescence) 속도를 늦추고 더 나아가서 현장실습을 통해서 새로운 인적자본을 축적할 수 있는 기회를 제공했던 인턴사업이 성공적이었음을 의미한다. 따라서 지식기반사회에서 국가경쟁력의 핵심인 고급인력의 구조적 실업을 완화시킴으로써 인적자본 축적에 큰 기여를 하고 있는 인턴사업의 경제적 효과를 극대화시킬 수 있는 여러 가지 방안들이 정책적으로 강구되어야 할 것이다.

The aim of this study is to investigate and develop the extended models for Economic Cash Amount(ECA), Cash Break Even-Point(BEP), and Cash Flow Statement(CFS) by referencing systematic literature review in the field. The study develops three extended models to determine the optimal cash amount: ECA model with interest opportunity cost, financing transaction cost and financing fail cost, ECA model with daily cash supply and interest opportunity cost, ECA model with financing fail cost and interest opportunity cost. Earnings Before Interests, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization(EBITDA) is obtained by subtracting noncash depreciation costs from Earning Before Interest and Tax(EBIT), which is efficient metric to evaluate operating cash flow. The research also develops two extended Cash BEP models, considered as interest and corporate tax, in order to indentify the break-even point as EBITDA equals zero. Furthermore, this paper proposes the modified version of CFS by introducing the reclassification of operating and financing accounts in the statement of financial position. In addition, the study also present the reclassification of five types of profit, such as gross profit, EBIT, ordinary profit, special profit, and net profit within the statement of comprehensive income. In order to provide a better understanding of the proposed cash flow models, numerical examples, such as two-sample t test and Analysis of Variance(ANOVA), are presented to demonstrate the statistical significance according to the industrial types for net working capital(i.e cash-to-cash), net profit, operating cash flow and free cash flow.
