Purpose - This paper analyzes the effect of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation, which are the main regulation adopted in "Law on the Improvement of the Mobile Terminal Distribution System" (Mobile Terminal Distribution Act), on the social surplus, the consumer surplus and profits of telecommunications carriers. We focus our analysis on whether the service charge competition is stimulated enough so that it can compensate for the loss of subsidies. Research design, data, and methodology - We use simple economic model to assess the impact of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation. Unlike the former researches on this topic, we depart from using Hotelling model, and instead use the switching cost model, which uses switching cost as a parameter of market powers of telecommunications carriers. We also study the effect of the two different regulations when they are adopted both independently and concurrently. Results - If the market powers of telecommunications carriers are over certain threshold, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, the service charge competition would not be stimulated enough to compensate for the deduction in the subsidies, and thus the consumer surplus is compromised. Number Portability subsidy, especially, undermines the rival's market power and thus reduces the service charge. On the other hand, the regulations will also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers. However, social surplus is maximized when both of the regulations are present because the regulations reduces the frequency of switching handsets inefficiently. Conclusions - In enacting the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act, the telecommunications regulatory agency asserted that the regulation on subsidies will stimulate service charge competition, and in the long run, enhance the consumer surplus. However, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, subsidy regulation, especially the regulation on Number Portability subsidy, reduces consumer surplus. On the other hand, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers because it decreases competition among the telecommunications carriers. However, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can increase the social surplus because it reduces inefficient switching of handsets.

In this paper, we develop theoretical game models to determine the level of government subsidies for banks to provide policy loans to Innovative SMEs(small and medium sized enterprises) through banks, which otherwise would not finance them for the sake of their own profitability. For this, we compare net cash flows of each bank using different strategies against high risk innovative SMEs. A bank can decide whether to provide them loans or not In each period. Following Kim(2003)'s Infinite horizon model on the soft budget constraint, we introduce a situation in which banks compete against each other for higher net long-term payoffs from their loans to innovative SMEs and non-innovative SMEs. From the models, we show that competition among banks in general leads to a tighter decision against innovative SMEs, as a Nash equilibrium. It is not because the government bank is simply loose in providing loans, but because competition among commercial banks for fewer riskier borrowers results in tighter loan decisions against innovative SMEs. Thus, the competitive market for policy loans to innovative SMEs fails to reach the socially optimal level of loans for innovative SMMs. Commercial banks in the competitive market may require additional supports from the government to make up for the differences in their payoffs to support innovative SMEs, possibly much riskier due to moral hazards and poor discounted cash flows. The monopolistic government bank might also request such supports from the government to fund otherwise unqualified SMEs. We calculate an optimal level of governmental support for banks to guarantee funding such high-risk innovative SMEs over periods without deviating from their optimal Nash equilibrium policies.

The purpose of this parer is to identify the input-output structure of oriental medicine and its alternative medicine industries in an inter-industry context and to estimate its forward and backward effects on macroeconomic variables such as production, employment and price level. Input-output tables released by The Bank of Korea were used as data in this research and inter-industry analysis was adopted as research methodology. The industry takes less share of production, price and trade in a Korean economy, compared with other industry. However, the industry's capability of creating value added is estimated to be well above that of other industry and that of making new employments is as more than 4 times as other industries. This result gives us policy implications that the government should enhance its subsidy policy and economic (tax) incentives for oriental medicine and its related alternative medicine industries.

Since medium and small manufacturing enterprises have , played a very important role not only in national economy but also in political and social relationships all of the countries in the world have paid favorable policies and programmes for protecting and promoting this sector. In Korea main ingredients of promoting policy for this sector consist of (1) encouragement to modernize facilities and rationalize operation (2) special priority in bank loan (3) promotion of industrial cooperatives (4) prevention of infringement by large industries. However, substantial investigation for problems incurred in medium industries has revealed that unless medium industries improve and raise their technological and managerial skillfulness for themselves all other measures are useless to solve the problems. This realization has induced all of the countries to render extension services on both of technology and management to assist and support their own effort for rationalization. Also in Korea during past 20 years many technical and managerial research institutes have rendered free consultancy services to medium industries by the support of government subsidy. Among them the joint extension services project performed by the Medium Industry Bank and UNDP during 1967 and 1975 might he listed as model case because of its broad and integrated activities and participation of foreign experts. We think many precepts should be :learned from the study of this project. Korean economy is expected to develop rapidly throughout coming'80 in spite of many obstacles, tut there is an apprehension that gap in of every facet between medium and large enterprises might he deepened and enlarged. To prevent the actualization of so-called dual structure of national economy and to promote stabilized medium industries with high added value productivity which are shown in well developed countries, consultancy assistance ana extension services should be strengthened much more than ever. Fortunately in 1978 legislation of "Medium and small industry promotion act" has paved the way for the systematic achivement of consultancy and extension services which shall be integrated by the government overall program. Under new framework thoughtfull accomplishment should be undertaken considering precious precepts obtained from past experience and failure. Special attention should be given to the technical liaison officer scheme, exclusive participation of only professional institutes, strict qualification and training for consultants for the future succsseful implementation.

최근 일본 문화청은 미술관의 지속 가능성과 경제성 강화를 통한 산업증진 등을 위하여 리딩 뮤지엄(선진미술관)으로 대표되는 예술시장 활성화 방안을 발표하였다. 인구감소 시대로 진입함에 따라 인구절벽과 지역사회 공동화 등은 큰 사회적 문제이다. 문화의 향유자와 창조자 모두 급감하여 문화 기반 자체가 붕괴할 위험이 있고, 이러한 상황에서 문화 분야의 지원 예산이 현안에 밀려 우선순위가 낮아지면 현재의 문화 지원의 수준도 유지하기 어려울 것이다. 또한 일본 국민의 자산 수준이 국제적으로 보아도 높은 수준임에도 불구하고 일본의 미술산업 시장은 미국, 중국 등에 비하여 매우 낮은 수준이다. 일본 정부는 이러한 문제점의 해결방안으로 미술품의 유동성을 높여 미술산업 시장을 활성화하겠다는 것이다. 문화청은 일본 내 미술관의 일부를 미술 시장 활성화를 위한 선진미술관으로 지정하여 예산 지원과 학예사 인력을 증원과 체질을 강화한 후 소장 미술품 등의 가치를 평가하여 수장품의 보존 여부를 판단 후 투자유치를 위하여 소장품을 시장에 매각하겠다는 전략이다. 이러한 정책 발표와 함께 일본의 문화계와 비평계가 찬반으로 나뉘어 큰 갈등에 휩싸였고 반대 여론이 높아져 현재 정책 추진이 잠정 유보된 상황이다. 반대 이유로는 보존과 전승이라는 박물관의 고유 목적에 부합하지 않고 상업주의가 예술계를 망칠 수 있다는 것이고 찬성 이유는 일본의 예술사회는 미술관과 박물관 이외에도 비영리단체, 예술제의 운영조직, 지원인력, 자원봉사자 등으로 이루어져 있는데 보조금 편향성이 높다 보니 실질 인건비도 지급하지 못하여 사실상 방치상태라는 것이다. 또한, 사회 변화에 따라 보조금 의존도를 줄여야 예술사회 자체가 살아남을 수 있다는 경각심도 나타나고 있다. 일본과 상황이 크게 다르지 않다 보니 우리나라 역시 미술품 유동성 활성화를 위한 미술품 감정·평가기능 수행하는 국립미술은행의 신설이나 미술품 담보대출, 미술품 신탁 등이 활발히 논의되고 있다. 저출산·고령화로 인한 인구절벽이 현실로 다가오는 상황에서 보조금만으로 현실적 문제를 타개하기 어려우므로 우리 역시 문화에 대한 투자를 확충시켜 문화와 경제가 일원적·연쇄적으로 운용될 수 있게 하는 방안을 찾아야 할 것이다.
