The aim of this paper is to evaluate users benefit values of theme park using Travel Cost Method with special reference to Woobang Tower Land in Taegu for the estimation of economic values. This research is mainly based on questionnaire survey of 100 users of the theme park. Socio-economic factors such as income, year of education, annual income, age and money(travel cost) are analysed from 5 residential areas of the respondents. Multiple regression analysis was used for the evaluation of annual number of park visitings based on the analysis. The regression model shows NV = $\alpha$+$\beta_1$TC+$\beta_2$INC+$\beta_3$EDU+$\beta_4$AGE (NV : Annual Number of Visitings, TC : Travel Cost, INC : Annual Income, EDU : Years of Education, AGE : Age). Regarding to visitors demand curve based on the equation showed that annual economic values of Woobang Tower Land was estimated as 50billion Korean Won.

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the economic value of beaches which are the major part of the East Sea Coast. ITCM (Individual Travel Cost Method) is applied to estimate the economic value of its beaches using Poisson, negative binomial, truncated Poisson and truncated negative binomial models. The consumer surplus during length of stay per capita is 214,088 won in beaches overall on the East Sea Coast, 206,398 won in Gangwon-do beaches and 271,171 won in Gyeongbuk/Ulsan beaches. Annual total economic value of its beaches considering the number of visitors at beaches is 6,269 billion won (3,970 billion won in Kangwondo beaches, 2,299 billion won in Kyungbuk/Ulsan beaches).

This paper aims at estimating consumer surplus for recreational sea fishing in Tongyeong coastal area using individual travel cost method. A Poisson model (PM), a negative binomial model (NBM), a truncated Poisson model (TPM), and a truncated negative binomial model (TNBM) are applied for individual travel cost method in order to account characteristics of count data (non-negative discrete data.) The survey was conducted for 462 inshore anglers using personal interview method in Tongyeong during July and October 2007. Respondents were asked about how often they do fishing, travel costs, catch, income, and so on. Because of over-dispersion problem in PM and TPM, NBM and TNBM were considered to be more appropriate statistically. All parameters estimated are statistically significant and theoretically valid. As the results based on TNBM, consumer surplus per trip was estimated to be 183,486 won, total consumer surplus per person and per year 3,399,658 won, and the marginal effect of consumer surplus on % changes in catch rate is 185,372 won.

This paper deals with a heuristic algorithm for the vehicle routing-scheduling problem to minimize the total travel distance and the total cost. Because the aim of the Clarke-Wright method, one of famous heuristic methods, is to minimize the total travel distance of vehicles, it cannot consider the cost if the cost and the travel distance is not proportional. In the Clarke-Wright method, the route of each vehicle is found by using the saving matrix which is made by an assumption that the vehicle comes back to the starting point. The problem dealt with in the paper, however, does not need the vehicle to come back because each vehicle has its hoping-start-points and hoping-destination-points. Therefore we need a different saving matrix appropriate to this occasion. We propose a method to find an initial solution by applying network simplex method after transforming the vehicle routing-scheduling problem into the minimum cost problem. Moreover, we propose a method to minimize the total travel distance by using the modified saving matrix which is appropriate to no-return occasion and the method for the case of plural types of vehicles and freights.

The aim of this study is to assess the social value of Ham-Pyung Butterfly Festival in the year of 2011. The tool for the assesment is the zonal travel cost method. The result of the study can be summed up as follows; First, the average individual consumer's surplus measures approximately from 29,700 to 30,100 Won. Second, the total consumer's surplus, that is the social value of the festival, ranges approximately from 7.6 to 7.7 billion Won. The most beneficiary of the event is turned up to be the people who are living in the outside of Ham-Pyung and go on a tour there. For that reason, the central government looks to have the obligation to support and to sponsor the festival.

Since 1989, 9 major complex have been invested with government funds, for the purpose of developing agricultural tourism to increase agricultural income and job opportunity, as well as providing urban population leisure opportunity. However, systematic and comprehensive approaches were rarely done in analyzing its economic impacts. This study, therefore, focuses on analyzing tourism effect and its economic value and implication for a representative rural tourism site,"Daeho rural tourism complex". To analyze travel pattern, expenditure pattern, and degree of satisfaction from travel to Daeho complex, Travel Cost Method(TCM) was employed based on survey method. Results from linear model with statistical significance implies that tourism benefit for each visitor is 28,373 won and total annual benefit for the Daeho site is 7 billion won. Considering annual benefit stream, the present value of total benefits are 132.9 billion won and 70 billion won at 5% and 10% of discounting rate, respectively. Using the values of benefit estimated from this study and investment cost, B/C ratio, IRR, and NPV were calculated to be 1.01, 1.67 billion won, and 5.19% at 5% of discounting rate. These results could be directly compared with the previous analyses.

This paper aims to evaluate the indirect economic damages to anglers of the marine recreational charter caused by marine pollution associated with the Herbei Spirit vessel, which spilled 12,547 kl of crude oil in Taean coastal areas in December 2007. In order to evaluate the indirect cost to anglers of the charter fishing, consumer surplus for charter fishing is estimated using a Poisson model (PM), a negative binomial model (NBM), a truncated Poisson model (TPM), and a truncated negative binomial model (TNBM), which account for the characteristics of count data (non-negative discrete data), for individual travel cost method (ITCM). Because of over-dispersion problem in PM and TPM, NBM and TNBM are considered to be more appropriate statistically. All parameters such as income, fishing careers, travel cost and catch that are estimated are statistically significant and theoretically valid. Based on TNBM results, consumer surplus per trip and per person was estimated to be 277 thousand won, total consumer surplus per person and per year about 2.3 million won, and the marginal effect of consumer surplus on % changes in catch rate is about 33 thousand won. The consumer surplus was converted into total indirect economic damages for aggregation which are evaluated to be 125 billion won, reflecting the number of anglers and damage rate.

본 연구는 개천예술제의 경제적 가치를 추정하였다. 추정방법은 Pearse(1972)가 제안한 여행비용차이추정법(TCM)을 새로운 가중치를 도입한 개선된 여행비용차이추정법을 활용하였다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위한 설문조사는 제63회 개천예술제 방문객 497명을 대상으로 하였다. 축제 방문객의 지출비용을 토대로 축제의 가치를 추정한 결과, 개천예술제의 총 가치는 약 2,270억 5,700여만 원으로 평가되었다. 분석결과, 개천예술제의 경제적 가치에 영향을 미치는 여행비용 항목은 교통비, 식 음료비, 쇼핑비, 숙박비, 유흥비, 입장료 순으로 나타났다. 외부 방문객비율이 높아 교통비(41%)항목이 가장 큰 영향을 미친 것으로 분석되었으나, 숙박비나 입장료로 인한 방문객잉여에 의한 영향은 미미하게 나타났다. 숙박비나 쇼핑비, 유흥비 및 입장료는 지역경제에 직접적인 영향을 미치므로 축제를 기획하는 주최측은 숙박관광을 유도하기 위한 유익하고 의미 있는 연계프로그램의 개발과 지역특산물을 이용한 다양한 쇼핑상품의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 제시한 개선된 여행비용차이추정법을 이용하여 각 지역축제의 경제적 가치를 측정한다면 다소간 축제의 성격에 차이가 있더라도 보다 객관적이고 명확한 축제간의 비교가 가능하여 지역축제의 발전과 지역경제활성화에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper, we conducted an empirical study on the economic value of Palutungan Resort, Gunung Ciremai National Park (Indonesia), using an individual travel cost method. Gunung Ciremai is the highest mountain in West Java Province which has high biodiversity and constitutes the home range of the endangered species, Nisaetus bartelsi and leopards. Using the individual travel cost method, we estimated the annual consumer surplus of ecotourism for Palutungan Resort to be approximately $19, while its total economic value was $0.23 million. However, Palutungan Resort does not benefit exclusively, because the total economic value is divided diversely among the central government (non-tax revenue), local government (taxes), and local communities, while the transportation agencies, retailers, and gas station companies also reap some valuable benefits. In regard to the benefit allocation, all of the associated parties should participate in the conservation and preservation of natural resources in Palutungan Resort to improve the ecotourism services.
