본 논문에서는 전력시장에서 원가 이하로 규제되고 있는 소매요금제도의 문제점을 분석하기 위해 규제된 소매요금 대신 시간별 도매시장가격의 변동을 반영하는 실시간 요금제를 도입할 경우 사회후생에 미치는 영항과 이와 같은 소매요금제도의 변화가 한국전력의 손실 규모를 어느 정도 보전할 수 있는지를 추정한다. 전력거래소의 전력통계정보시스템(EPSIS)과 에너지경제연구원 국가에너지통계종합정보시스템(KESIS), 통계청, 한국은행, 기상청의 2008~2010년 통계자료에 기초하여 실질소매가격, 온도, 가구수, 습도 실질 GDP, 그리고 요일 및 공휴일 더미 등을 설명변수로 이용하여 상대적으로 수요가 많은 여름(6~8월)과 겨울(12~2월)의 최대 부하시간대와 최저 부하시간대의 수요패턴을 분석하였다. 회귀분석을 통해 추정된 선형수요함수와 발전기별 한계비용에 기초하여 산정된 계단식 공급함수를 이용하여 규제된 소매요금이 시장균형가격인 실시간 요금으로 전환될 경우의 사회후생 변화를 살펴본 결과, 여름기간(6~8월)에는 사회후생이 약 674억 원 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 한전손실 총액 중 7,055억 원은 소비자잉여의 이전으로, 나머지 674억 원은 시중손실의 감소로 충당될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 겨울에는 사회후생 증대가 약 2,251억 원에 이르고, 한전의 손실 중 1조 1,743억 원이 소비자잉여의 전가로 보전될 수 있는 것으로 나타나 소매요금의 규제가 사중손실의 발생을 통해 전체 사회후생을 감소시키고, 한전에게 막대한 손실을 초래하고 있다는 결과를 도출하였다.

This study proviedes GARCH model(Bollerslev, 1986) to analyze the structural characteristics of price volatility in domestic aquacultural fish market of Korea. As a case study, flatfish and rock-fish are analyzed as major species with relatively high portion in an aspect of production volume among fish captured in Korea. For analyzing, this study uses daily market data (dating from Jan 1 2000 to June 30, 2008) published by the Noryangjin Fisheries Wholesale Market which is located in Seoul of Korea. This study performs normality test on trading volume and price volatility of flatfish and rock-fish as an advanced empirical approach. The normality test adopted is Jarque-Bera test statistic. As a result, first, a null hypothesis that "an empirical distribution follows normal distribution" was rejected in both fishes. The distribution of daily market data of them were not only biased toward positive(+) direction in terms of kurtosis and skewness, but also characterized by leptokurtic distribution with long right tail. Secondly, serial correlations were found in data on market trading volume and price volatility of two species during very long period. Thirdly, the results of unit root test and ARCH-LM test showed that all data of time series were very stationary and demonstrated effects of ARCH. These statistical characteristics can be explained as a reasonable ground for supporting the fitness of GARCH model in order to estimate conditional variances that reveal price volatility in empirical analysis. From empirical data analysis above, this study drew the following conclusions. First of all, from an empirical analysis on potential effects of seasonality and the day of week on price volatility of aquacultural fish, Monday effects were found in both species and Thursday and Friday effects were also found in flatfish. This indicates that Monday is effective in expanding price volatility of aquacultural fish market and also Monday has higher effects upon the price volatility of fish than other days of week have since it has more new information for weekend. Secondly, the empirical analysis led to a common conclusion that there was very high price volatility of flatfish and rock-fish. This points out that the persistency parameter($\lambda$), an index of possibility for current volatility to sustain similarly in the future, was higher than 0.8-equivalently nearly to 1-in both flatfish and rock-fish, which presents volatility clustering. Also, this study estimated and compared and model that hypothesized normal distributions in order to determine fitness of respective models. As a result, the fitness of GARCH(1, 1)-t model was better than model where the distribution of error term was hypothesized through-distribution due to characteristics of fat-tailed distribution, was also better than model, as described in the results of basic statistic analysis. In conclusion, this study has an important mean in that it was introduced firstly in Korea to investigate in price volatility of Korean aquacultural fishery products, although there was partially a limited of official statistic data. Therefore, it is expected that the results of this study will be useful as a reference material for making and assessing governmental policies. Also, it is looked forward that the results will be helpful to build a fishery business plan as and aspect of producer, and also to take timely measures to potential price fluctuations of fishery products in market. Hence, it is advisable that further studies related to such price volatility in fishery market will extend and evolve into a wider variety of articles and issues in near future.

The features of special brand eggs are growing more and more diverse and it is hard to draw a clear distinction between these and ordinary (no-brand) eggs. Special brand eggs range from those with objectively recognizable characteristics to those given only an unsubstantial product image and price differentials are among them great, too. The relation between product features and prices is unclear. Special brand eggs are the commodity whose characteristics are the vaguest of all livestock products. Farm's brand eggs produce a high profitability to producers is they are directly sold to consumers, by, for example, home-delivery service. But if they are sold to supermarkets, etc., producer's (poultry farmer's) income becomes lower by the amount of distributors' margin, reducing the profitability substantially. Thus how to increase the ration of retailing is important for farmers to secure a high profit. The sales strategies of poultry are the combination of two elements, that is, new product development (product differentiation) and creation of new market. But it is difficult for special brand egg producers to develop products with clear characteristics (use value) distinct form ordinary eggs and so these producers depend on the factors of appearance, such as the color of egg shells and package. Special brand eggs manage to keep their marketable value by the combination of the few product features and product image. Thus NB eggs from feed producers have a great market-ability since they can take advantage of the power of patents and TV commercials. However, market differentiation affects profitability much more than product features and price gaps are very wide between directly sold and wholesaled eggs. The producers of special brand eggs have come to the turning point where they have to decide whether they will content with being the subcontractors for NB and PB eggs or they will continue to keep their independence in production and marketing.

Korean Ginseng has been recognized as a representative special product in Korea and over the world for a long time, since its quality is known to be superior to Chinese, North American Ginseng. However, the export volume of Korean Ginseng products has been diminishing since 1990 because the imports of low price Chinese Ginseng and the effective marketing policy on North American Ginseng. Therefore, this study is to suggest the competitiveness reinforcement strategies through analyses of the present state and transition of the international competitiveness in Korean Ginseng. This study conducts the comparative analysis of international competitive power of ginseng between Korea and other exporting countries. There are many kinds of saponin that are competitive from a quality profile. However, price competitiveness was very low. According to the result of analysis, this study suggest the competitiveness reinforcement strategies of Korean Ginseng as follows ; First, it is necessary to establish the ginseng plan for high-quality environmentally-friendly production. Second, Korean Ginseng producer should develop various consumer-oriented products according to purchasing power and taste of target market consumers. Third, export strategies must be established by finding out every importing country’s characteristics with regard its import, circulation and consumption of the Korean Ginseng. The use of this study is to forecast useful information to concerned organization for the future policies to the ginseng products in the international market.

Chinese cabbage is a staple food to Korean, which has the high degree of self-sufficiency and worldwide breeding technique in the aspect of seed. However, the producers' competitiveness has been decreasing after the agricultural product market was open. In order to cope with this problem, the government introduced some policies for promoting seed industry in 2007 to reflect producer's needs for high quality seeds of Chinese cabbage. These policies will be a good opportunity for producers to secure and promote the producers' competitiveness against low-price importing Chinese cabbage. In this aspect it is very important to know how well these policies are established and what Chinese cabbage farmers want in regard to a new variety of Chinese cabbage seed. This study was carried out to look over the Chinese cabbage producers' using pattern about a new variety of seed and show some directions for efficient way of diffusion of a new variety of seed to producers using a survey research. The main results are as follows. The producers thought the characteristics of a new variety of seed most important factor compared to other factors such as the seed price, and easiness of cabbage sales when they choose a seed. Also, the 65% of respondents were willing to accept a new variety of seed and thought the government support for an exhibition field and diffusing public information about a new variety of Chinese cabbage seed are important in accepting a new variety of seed.

본 연구는 농업재해보험으로 인한 농업인들의 생산양식 변화 여부를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 농업재해보험은 자연재해 발생 시 보험가입자에게 보험금을 지급함으로써 농가경영의 안정을 이루고자 함이 주된 목적이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 생산자들의 경영안정을 도모하고자 시작된 본 사업은 생산자들의 작물 생산량을 증대시키는 방향으로 예기치 않은 생산양식의 변화를 발생시켰고, 생산량 증가에 따른 가격하락 현상이 나타나면서 작물시장에 변화가 일어났다. 이는 재해보험을 통해 생산자들이 자연재해 발생에 따른 위험을 완화시킬 수 있기 때문으로 설명할 수 있다. 본 연구의 실증분석은 도구변수를 이용한 2단계 최소자승법을 바탕으로 이루어졌다. 재해보험 시행 여부를 도구변수로 이용한 이중차분분석 방법론 1단계 실증분석 결과, 재해보험 가입대상 작물의 경우 비가입대상 작물보다 통계적으로 유의한 수준에서 평균적으로 약 80,000톤 정도의 생산량 증가효과가 발생하였다. 또한 일반적인 수요 공급 모형에서 발생하는 내생성 문제를 해결하고자 1단계 분석의 추정치를 이용한 2단계 분석에서는 생산량이 10,000톤 증가함에 따라 작물의 가격지수가 약 2.3% 정도 하락하는 효과가 발생하였다. 그리고 다양한 방법의 강건성 점검을 통해서 결과의 신뢰성도 확보할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 정부가 정책 결정을 하는 데 있어서 생산자 측면뿐만 아니라 소비자 측면에 대한 분석도 포함하는 전체 경제 분석의 필요성에 대한 시사점을 제공해 준다고 볼 수 있다. 이에 더해, 예기치 않은 효과에 대응하기 위해 새로운 시장을 개척하려는 정부의 노력이 필요하다는 점을 시사한다.

As the conventional farming emphasizes the productivity and the quantity produced, large amount of agricultural chemicals have been used. As a result, natural environment and human health are critical issues in recent years in Korea. Reflecting these problems, many farmers have begun to practice the LISA(low input sustainable agriculture) voluntarily across the country. In this study, a survey was made to 13 apple producers who have been producing the fruits by practicing the LISA, and wanted to analyze the production and marketing information in order to suggest the improvement strategies for the sustainable agriculture. Some of the improvement strategies were suggested as follows ; First, advance payment to the LISA apple growers should be supplied in order to make it easier for the financially burdened producers. Also, some kind of means should be developed to prepare the equipments/machineries to make the organic fertilizers. Price differentiation should be utilized in marketing the products, and mass marketing channels for the LISA products should be provided for them. Public quality guaranty is badly needed in order to accelerate the marketing. Finally, stronger producer organizations should be organized and subsidized by the government because those organizations are playing an important role in developing the LISA.

Evaluating product quality level is necessary before the manufactured items are delivered to the customer. When the amount of the items to be manufactured is limited and the product is of high price and should be evaluated by destructive testing, the number of samples to be tested should be as small as possible. This paper presents a small-sample inspection method using hyper-geometric distribution and Bayesian approach for finite small-sized population. A method of determining the minimum sample size is presented for given population size, allowable number of defectives, warranteed defective level, and confidence level which is the degree of confidence on the product quality level recognized by both the producer and the customer.

Purpose - We study the dynamic linkages of the economic policy uncertainty (EPU) in the US on the manufacturing stock market returns in Korea. In detail, we examine the casual link between EPU index in the US and the manufacturing stock indexes in Korea. Research design, data, and methodology - We measure mainly the distribution effect of the US EPU on the manufacturing stock market in Korea of 1990-2017 by the vector error correction model (VECM). Result - In result, we estimate the impact of the US EPU index has significantly a negative response to the manufacturing stock market in Korea such as non-metal stock index, chemical stock index, food stock index, textile·clothes stock index, automobile·shipbuilding stock index, machinery stock index, steel·metal stock index. Also the remaining variables such as electric·electronics stock index, S&P 500, and producer price index in Korea have a negative relationship with US EPU index. Conclusions - We find out that the relationship between EPU index of the US and the manufacturing stock market in Korea has the negative relationships. We determine the EPU of the US has the spillover effect on the industry stock markets in Korea.
