The main purpose of this study is to find out the attitude of university students on start-up business. The premise of this study is that the recognition on business success and failure is not the same for college students. The focus on this study is analyzing the relations of expectation of students on business start-up and on entrepreneurial intention. The result of the study is as follows. First, the expectation to the business success has positive effect on entrepreneurial intention, while the expectation to the business failure has negative effect on entrepreneurial intention. Second, the negative expectation to the market condition has negative effect on entrepreneurial intention as a control variable. The result of the survey is meaningful that the entrepreneurial intention is affected by the tendency of the business failure factors.

The reliability guarantee insurance policy for parts and materials was introduced to the market in 2003. This policy indemnifies manufactures of products for the repair/failure costs, recall expenses of products and business interruption losses found to be defective by users or demand companies during the terms of guarantee and after the user acquired physical possession of the product. In this paper, owing to the nature of the policy, we propose a new rate-making system considering the type of product and industry, quality control circumstances, record of guarantee performance, and exposure.

This article describes the theoretical foundations of government policy for hospitals in terms of correcting market failure and enhancing equity. It then discusses the characteristics that desirable payment systems should have, and the effects of the DRG-based prospective payment system on hospital behavior, its financial performance, hospital industry, and health care expenditure. The rationales and impacts of other public policies for hospitals such as antitrust and fair trade regulation, dissemination of practice guidelines and hospital mortality information, regulation of hospital capital investment, and tax policy are also discussed.

In the case of existence of second-hand market, some methods for economic depreciation measurement have been developed. Among them, we consider two method. Those are Box -Cox model by Halten and Wykoff and Ratio method of T-factor by Iowa State University. Here, we suggest a new measurement method of economic depreciation based on the above two methods. According to the new method, we can get the failure rate of a equipment under the appropriate assumption. Then we can measure the economic depreciation more simply.

Survival analysis was used to analyze whether there is a difference in the effect of leverage on corporate failure according to the firm size. A total of 25,250 (year-company) companies listed on the Korea Stock Exchange and KOSDAQ market from 1999 to 2019 were analyzed. First, the increase in leverage generally acts as a factor that increases the possibility of corporate failure. On the other hand, the increase in the trade payable ratio lowered the possibility of failure of the company. The increase in corporate trade payable was perceived as a factor in reducing the possibility of corporate failure because it was considered the active development of business activities or active use of interest-free debt rather than leading to an increase in corporate risk. Second, a higher leverage ratio and trade payable ratio in large firms lowered the possibility of corporate failure. In the SMEs, all types of leverage increases are a factor that increases corporate failure. Overall, the effect of leverage on corporate failure differs according to the size of the company.

This paper discusses the role of money in the process of capital accumulation where financial markets are impeded by contract enforcement problems in the context of overlapping generations framework. In particular, in less developed countries (LDCs) creditors may know little about the repayment capability of potential debtors due to incomplete information so that financial instruments other than money may not acceptable to them. In this paper the impediments to the operation of the private finanical markets are explicitly modelled. We argue that creditors cannot observe actual investment decisions made by the potential borrowers, and as a result, loan contracts may not be fully enforceable. Therefore, a laissez-faire regime may fail to provide the economy with the appropriate financial instruments. Under these circumstances, we introduce a government operated discount window (DW) that acts as an open market buyer of private debt. This theoretical structure represents the practice of governments of many LDCs to provide loans (typically at subsidized interest rates) to preferred borrowers either directly or indirectly through the commercial banking system. It is shown that the DW can substantially overcome impediments to trade which are caused by the credit market failure. An appropriate supply of the DW loan enables producers to purchase the resources they cannot obtain through direct transactions in the credit market. This result obtains even if the DW is subject to the same enforcement constraint that is responsible for the market failure. Thus, the DW intervention implies higher investment and output. However, the operation of the DW may cause inflation. Furthermore, the provision of cheap loans through the DW results in a worse income distribution. Therefore, there is room for welfare enhancing schemes that utilize the higher output to develop. We demonstrate that adequate lump sum taxes-cum-transfers along with the operation of the DW can support an allocation that is Pareto superior to the laissez-faire equilibrium allocation.

This paper examines the disciplinary effect of deposits using the semiannual accounting data of mutual savings banks(henceforth 'MSBs') in Korea for the period of 2003 through 2007. I find overall strong evidence in favor of the existence of market discipline in the industry. MSBs with higher BIS ratio and lower NPL ratio turn out to have higher increase rate of deposits than MSBs with lower such ratios. The coefficient of NPL ratio becomes greater with time, suggesting that the effect is cumulative. It turns out that depositors respond more sensitively to NPL ratio than BIS ratio in a period of MSB failure. On the other hand, MSBs turn out to act very positively responding to the depositors' discipline. They increase BIS ratio or decrease NPL ratio following the previous decrease in deposits. Government authorities need to make more efforts to develop a suitable incentive system (e.g. penalties on a false disclosure) to improve the efficiency of disclosure by MSBs. Moreover, they need to acknowledge the importance of NPL ratio as a market disciplinary tool which has been becoming more important, especially in times of MSB failure.

This research premises that design failure in the market can stem partially from the gap between designer's communication intension through design and consumer's signification for design. Therefore, it's necessary that designers should examine and understand consumer's signification process for design factors or overall design images that they consider in the design process. For this, this research suggests that understanding consumer's signification process is possible by performing value categorization, consumer segmentation, value identification of main target consumers and relationship examination between value of target consumers and design attributes based on Means-End model by reviewing various theoretical backgrounds. In addition, this research suggests contents and methods for performing each step of understanding consumer's signification process. Also, Laddering was suggested as a method for the study and a case study was performed by it. Finally this research claims that understanding consumer's signification process can be one of the methods that decrease failure possibility rather increase success possibility of design in the market.

Presently, the online game industry of Korea are growing up fastly. The growth of online game give rise to the new problem of regulation on Real Money Trade(RMT). This article analyzed the market failure of RMT, and showed whether or not the government regulate RMT. The results showed that the RMT has efficiency in monopoly and external economie, and inefficiency in external diseconomies and uncertainty. But, the inefficiency in external diseconomie and uncertainty is based on the regulation of RMT by the game company. So, it is necessary for government to deregulate the RMT for curing the inefficiency of RMT.
