Abstract

Most previous studies found a positive relationship between the value of a firm and its R&D investments. This research measures the impact of the timescale of the R&D investment of a firm on its value using panel vector autoregression. By measuring the time required for R&D to impact the value of a firm, this study demonstrates that the lead time is an essential factor in the analysis of the effect of R&D investment on a firm's value. Our study finds that the length of the lead time varies according to the firm's size, industry concentration, and book to market ratio. Firms with a higher industry concentration show a shorter lead time. Also, firms with a larger size and higher book to market ratio generally show a shorter lead time.

R&D 연구 투자의 문제점의 하나는 불확실성이 크다는 점이다. 이러한 불확실성이 기업에는 많은 부담을 주는 요인이 될 수 있다. 이러한 면에서 R&D 투자가 기업 가치에 양(+)의 영향을 미치기까지의 시간을 측정할 수 있는 연구의 필요성이 있다고 보여진다. 본 연구는 GMM-PVAR(Panel Vector Autoregression) IRF(Impulse Response function)를 사용하여 1900년부터 2015년까지 한국거래소의 코스피와 코스닥시장에 상장된 기업을 대상으로 R&D 투자가 기업가치에 양(+)의 영향을 미치기까지 걸리는 시간을 측정 하였다. 또한 기업의 재무적 특성 변수 중 기업의 크기, 성장 가능성, 그리고 산업 집중율이 R&D 투자가 기업가치에 양(+) 영향을 미치기까지 걸리는 시간을 단축시킨다는 점을 발견하였다. 그것은 이들 재무적 특성변수 들이 R&D 투자와 기업가치간의 관계에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠수록 즉 경쟁이 심화될수록 크기가 클수록 시간이 단축되며 작은 기업의 경우는 성장 가능성이 높을수록 시간이 단축되는 경향을 보였다. 흥미 있는 점은 큰 기업들의 경우에는 성장가능성이 낮은 기업들이 성장가능성이 높은 기업들보다 더 큰 양의 결과를 보였다.
