우리나라는 R&D투자 정책을 적극적으로 추진한 결과 과학기술 발전을 통한 경제성장을 이룩하여 왔고, 세계 선진 각국에서도 과학기술을 중요한 국가 아젠다로 삼으면서 신기술 개발이나 사회문제 해결을 위한 해결책으로 과학기술 정책을 적극적으로 펼치면서 R&D에 대한 적극적인 투자를 시행하고 있다. 우리나라의 경우도 2014년 기준으로 정부의 R&D투자 예산은 17조 7천억원의 거대한 규모로 확대되고 있으며, 각각의 연구주체들에 의해 수행되어진 결과로 나오는 다양한 종류의 연구성과에 대한 성과관리의 중요성은 점점 더해가고 있는 실정이다. 한편, 연구개발 투자에 대한 성과의 효율성이라는 측면에 있어서 염려의 목소리도 만만치 않은 실정이다. 이는 연구성과를 창출하기 위한 프로세스, 즉 연구기획, 선정, 수행관리, 결과평가, 사후관리 및 사업화 등의 과정들을 철저하고 효율적으로 관리하여야 한다는 측면에서 접근할 수도 있겠으나, 중소기업을 지원하는 정부의 R&D 지원형태에 있어서는 정부의 지원방식에 따라, 즉 출연(국가 등이 반대급부 없이 예산이나 기금에서 지원하는 방식)지원이나 융자지원(일정한 금리와 상환기간을 정해놓고 지원하는 방식)에 따라 도출되는 성과의 차이가 있을 수 있다는 점에 착안하여 그 두가지 지원방식에 따른 성과에 있어서의 차이점을 비교해 보고, 그 결과에 따라 정부가 중소기업을 대상으로 지원하는 방식에 대한 방향성을 제시해 보고자 한다.

국가 성장동력의 밑거름이 되는 R&D의 중요성이 높아짐에 따라 정부의 R&D 투자는 해마다 큰 폭으로 증가하고 있다. 정부 R&D 투자가 급증함에 따라 동시에 R&D의 효율성에 대한 문제가 제기되어 그 동안 R&D 효율성을 향상시키기 위한 많은 연구가 이루어졌다. 하지만 R&D 전주기 Plan-Do-See 관점에서 살펴보면 대부분의 연구가 기획(Plan)과 성과확산 및 사업화(See)의 문제해결을 통한 생산성 향상 전략 마련에 국한되어 온 것이 사실이다. 국가연구개발사업은 그 사업의 목표, 추진방법, 추진주체, 연구성과, 사업규모, 사업기간 등 다양한 특성에 따라 성공적인 사업운영을 위해 차별화된 관리 지원 시스템(Do)이 필요함에도 불구하고, R&D 효율성을 향상시키기 위한 R&D 지원시스템 관련 논의는 활발하게 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 특성을 보유한 국가연구개발사업의 효율성을 향상시키기 위해 국가연구개발사업을 연구기간과 연구비에 따라 크게 4가지로 분류하여 각각의 R&D 특성을 고려한 R&D 지원시스템을 도출하고 그 발전방향을 제시하고자 한다.

Using longitudinal data of 108 firms in large business conglomerates from 2001 to 2009, this study examines the impact of controlling shareholders' control-ownership disparity on R&D investment. The study finds that control-ownership disparity is negatively related to R&D intensity. This empirical result suggests that controlling shareholders' control rights in excess of ownership rights incent controlling shareholders' expropriation for their private interests, leading to decreased R&D investment which enhances firm value in the long term.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of variable cash compensation depending on short-term performances instead of stock compensation for the executives on the investment in tangible assets, investment and R&D, and profit reconciliation. The detailed objectives of the study include, first, to examine the influence of the cash compensation on investment in tangible assets and profit reconciliation depending on the characteristics of the company and, second, to examine the influence of cash compensation on the profit reconciliation of the investment in R&D depending on the characteristics of the company. The results of the analysis in this study can be summarized as follows; Firstly, the result of the positive analysis, as the compensation for the executives increased, by the characteristics of the companies conducted on the significant 'positive' (+) on the investment in R&D and the profits reconciliation showed that the high tech industry and the share ratio of the executives did not show a significant result, while the debt ratio showed a significantly positive result. Secondly, the result of the positive analysis, as the compensation for the executives increased, by the characteristics of the companieson the significant 'positive' (+) of the investment in tangible assets and reconciliation of profits showed that the high-tech industry did not show a significant result, while the hypothesis on the share ratio of the executives and the hypothesis on the debt ratio showed results that are significantly positive as expected. In other words, it can help Korean companies, which have to investment in R&D and tangible assets to increase their competitiveness and promote future growth dynamics, to design a manager compensation system that is appropriate for our country to support efficient investment decision-making.

전통적인 산업조직이론에서 널리 사용되는 시장구조-행동-성과 분석 도구 (The SCP Paradigm)는 시장성과가 가격정책, 기술개발투자(R&D), 광고투자, 생산설비 변경 등 시장행동의 함수라는 암묵적 가정에 근거한다. 최근 시장행동 중에서 기업의 관심이 크게 높아진 R&D 및 광고투자가 시장성과에 미치는 영향이 크게 부각되었으며, 시장성과를 구성하는 주요요인으로 주목받고 있다. R&D 및 광고 투자의 성격과 행태, 그리고 시장성과에 미치는 영향이 상호 유사함에도 불구하고 두 가지 변수를 동시에 다룬 연구는 매우 드물다. 몇 안 되는 연구들도 기업의 행태를 실증적으로 설명하는데 치중함으로써 이론적 근거를 소홀히 하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 즉, 논리의 전개상 이론적인 근거를 바탕으로 수리모형이 먼저 제시된 후에야 이를 검증하는 방법으로 통계모형을 사용하는 것이 옳을 것이다. 이 논문은 기존의 SCP 분석방법을 사용하여 기업이 한정된 재원을 어떤 원칙아래 R&D 및 광고에 분산 투자하는 가를 설명하기 위해 수리모형을 설정한 후, 정태와 동학, 확실성과 불확실성, 단발성과 균등투자전략의 개념을 도입하여 다양한 분석을 시도하였다. 또 R&D 및 광고투자 함수를 이론적 근거에 의해 도입하되, 각 모형에 균형이 존재하는가를 검증하였다. 수리모형을 이용해 분석한 결과 (1) 기업의 투자는 R&D 및 광고투자간에 한계원리(Marginal Principle)가 지켜지도록 분배할 때에 효율적임이 판명되었고, (2) 동학모형이 정학모형을 포함하는 일반모형의 성격을 가지고 있었으며, (3) 투자는 확실성이 높을수록, 분산시킬수록 투자효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 한국을 대상으로 한 실증적 모형추정은 앞의 수리모형 및 그 결과에 근거를 두었으며, 한국기업에 적절한 R&D 및 광고투자함수를 추정한 뒤 이를 이용해 업종, 기업규모, 상품유형별로 적합한 모델(Fixed Effects Model)을 결정하고, 각각에 해당하는 통계모형을 구축하였다. 이 결과 (1) 업종 및 기업규모별로 그룹간에 유의한 특성이 발견되었으며, (2) R&D 및 광고투자는 기업의 시장성과를 설명하는 중요한 변수이나, (3) R&D 투자의 경우는 광고에 비해 불확실성이 존재하는 것으로 나타났고, (4) 수리모형에서 도출된 한계원리가 통계모형에서도 유효한 것으로 드러났다.

We suggested industry-specific priorities of R&D investment with R&D investment elasticity to GDP calculated from the ripple effect of 28 large-sized industry R&D investment, using a Computable General Equilibrium(CGE) Model. Priority orders apply to only 12 industries, because 16 industries with less than 1% of total investment have been excluded. First, R&D investment elasticity to GDP says that priorities are ordered as Basic metal products, Chemicals, drugs and medicines, Food, beverages and tobacco products, Electronic and electrical equipment, Transportation equipment, Precision instruments, Electrictity, gas, steam and water supply, General machinery and equipment, Communications and broadcasting, Construction, Other services, and Real estate and business services. These priorities show the status quo of Korean industry structures well. The GDP growth rate to 2030 year reference equilibrium, which is an auxiliary index, says a similar priority to results from R&D investment elasticity to GDP. In the end, two criteria of priority order can be functioned as a good index for National Science and Technology Commission deciding what industry to invest and what budget to allocate.

Among numerous policy influencers' and researchers' advices and policy suggestions, there is little opposition to the proposition that technology is essential to the economic development. The role of technology has never been more emphasized than today in Korea as in any other countries. The effects of the government's innovation policy on corporate R&D activities and more broadly the economic welfare of a whole nation are widely recognized with intuitional and empirical evidence. That is, various R&D incentives reduce the marginal cost of a firm's R&D efforts, inducing as much increase of its R&D investment to result in a better chance to acquire target technology. This paper examines the impact of R&D incentives on the technological outcomes by analyzing individual firms' investment behaviors subject to the government's R&D incentive policies. An econometric model of technological outcomes is estimated on a project level with cross-sectional data. "Probit model" is employed for estimations. Special attention was given to the effectiveness of R&D programs by estimating policy impact by types of investment. The data were collected from 928 different R&D projects completed between 1987 and 1993. With the single equation approach, we were able to find that the structure of investment is a far more significant factor in technological outcomes than the total amount of investment. The analysis also shows that the two types of firms' matching investment, in-kind and cash, do not bear a complementary, but a substitutive relations to each other. It also reconfirms the proposition that R&D incentives increase firm's financial investment. Despite many supportive studies emphasizing the cooperation between innovation performers, it is also found that the larger the number of institutions involved in a project, the less likely it leads to a technological success, And meeting the proposed deadlines without postponing is estimated to be a good barometer to predict the outcome of an R&D project. Also the probabilities of success for major variables are represented for policy implications, after calculating marginal effects.

R&D investment has rised in recent years. Korea's R&D budget is 43.8 trillion won which is 3.74% adjusted gross domestic product in 2010. Technological advances and technical inovation will bring productivity growth to Firm and Firm's productivity growth will increase GDP in sequence. Therefore the importance of study on the Firm's R&D industry is getting growing. In this study we attempt to analyse the economic impact of the Firm's R&D industry through several years using an inter-industry analysis. Specifically, this study analyze production-inducing effect, value added inducing effect, and employ-inducing effect based on demand-driven model. The analysed results of year from 1995 to 2009, the Firm's R&D investment increases production-inducing effect, value added inducing effect, and employ-inducing effect with the course of time. This means that influence of the Firm's R&D industry has increased.
