In Botswana, mopane worms are widely harvested for household consumption. They are also traded for income generation. Urban based entrepreneurs' source mopane worms from rural areas to sell. The price of sourcing mopane worms from the harvesters has increased quite incredibly in villages. However, there is dearth of academic studies on the commercialisation of mopane worms in Botswana. This paper uses primary data collected from multiple sources to investigate the factors influencing the prices of mopane worms. Data collection involved administration of questionnaires to purposively selected harvesters in four campsites in the Central District, focus group discussions at each campsite and key informant interviews. The results show that there is declining population of mopane worms. The decline is attributable to such factors as over-harvesting and climate change which are the main factors influencing the price of mopane worms. In addition to physical scarcity of mopane worms, institutional weaknesses exist in the study area. The Agricultural Resources Conservation Act is ineffective and the majority of the harvesters are unaware of its existences. It is recommended that the regulations on the harvesting of mopane worms be reviewed. In order to benefit harvesters, mopane worms should be processed to add diversified economic value to rural communities.

Net neutrality, which has not been a problem, has recently become a problem for ISPs (Internet Service Providers), and their complaints have been paid by domestic platform companies, but overseas global IT companies such as Google and YouTube, generate huge revenues from domestic markets. In this situation, domestic IT companies claim that it is natural to impose more expensive charges or restrict speed on users who generate huge traffic. On the other side, however, the telecommunication network has become an essential public good that is essential to our everyday life, and because it has been given a monopoly position by a private company to efficiently respond to the explosive demand for telecommunication services, It is necessary to provide equal and universal service and fulfill public duty. In this paper, we deal with the network neutrality problem, focusing on the price elasticity between the CP (Contents Provider) and the ISP, rather than the user who is one side of the two-sided market for the already saturated satellites communication market. We present a game model that determines the optimal price for each platform by Nash equilibrium and analyze how the net neutrality affects CP according to the change of exogenous variables through the proposed game model.

표고버섯의 재배와 출하 결정에서 단기 가격의 예측은 매우 중요하다. 표고버섯 가격의 형성에는 많은 요인들이 작용하고 있기 때문에 이를 구조모형으로 예측하는 것은 어려운 일이다. Box-Jenkins 방법을 이용한 표고버섯과 모형선정 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 오류를 줄이고 경우에 따라서는 더 높은 예측력을 가지기도 한다. 이 연구는 1992~2005년의 가락시장 표고버섯 중품 가격자료를 이용하여 시계열 분석 모형을 구축하고 단기 가격을 예측한 것이다. 그리고 분석에 포함되지 않은 2006년의 실제가격과 예측결과를 비교하였다. 분석 결과는 날씨 변화의 영향으로 시장에 교란이 발생하였던 시기를 제외하면 비교적 높은 정확도를 보여 주어 모형의 유용성을 시사한다.

주관적 행복이 각광 받고 있다. 주관적 행복에 따라 사회비교 및 인지부조화 해소가 달라지는 것처럼, 주관적 행복이 소비자의 대안 비교와 평가에 영향을 미칠 것이다. 본 연구는 소비자가 선택한 혹은 선택하지 않은 대안에 대한 추가 정보로 인해 대안의 절대적 가치 및 상대적 가치가 변동할 때, 대안에 대한 평가가 소비자의 주관적 행복에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지 연구하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 특히, 소비자가 제품에 대해 지각하는 가치를 반영하는 소비자가 생각하는 대안의 적정가격을 사용하여 대안에 대한 평가를 측정하였다. 즉, 선택 혹은 비선택 대안의 상대적 가치 및 절대적 가치의 변화가 대안의 적정가격에 미치는 영향이 주관적 행복에 따라 달라지는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구를 위하여 98명의 대학생을 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 먼저, 학생들을 두 집단(비선택 대안 악화, 선택 대안 개선)에 무작위 할당한 후, 실험실 모니터에 2개의 대안에 대한 소비자 리포트를 제시하였다. 학생들이 하나의 대안을 선택하면, 대안에 대한 소비자 리포트의 평가가 변동(비선택 대안 악화, 선택 대안 개선)하면서 비선택 대안의 가격이 주어지고, 학생들은 선택 대안의 적정가격을 답하였다. 2주 후 학생들의 주관적 행복을 설문지로 측정하였다. 연구 결과, 집단, 주관적 행복의 단순효과 및 이 둘의 상호작용효과가 유의하였다. 또한, 행복한 사람은 비선택 대안이 악화될 때 보다 선택 대안이 좋아질 때 선택 대안의 적정가격을 높게 평가한 반면, 불행한 사람은 이러한 차이가 없었다. 이는 행복한 사람은 선택 대안의 절대적 가치 상승에 민감한 반면, 불행한 사람은 선택 대안의 절대적, 상대적 가치 상승 모두에 민감하며, 불행한 사람은 행복한 사람보다 비선택 대안의 악화 정보에 집중함을 의미한다. 본 연구는 소비자의 주관적 행복이 대안 평가에 미치는 영향을 제시함으로써 기존 연구를 확장하였다. 특히, 타인의 존재가 명시되지 않은 상황에서도 행복한 사람보다 불행한 사람이 부정적인 사회비교 정보에 민감함을 보였다는 점에서 이론적 의의가 있다. 아울러, 이러한 결과는 소비자의 주관적 행복 수준에 따라 대안을 어떻게 제시해야 하는지에 대한 시사점을 유통업체들에 제공한다. 본 연구는 한국의 소비자를 대상으로 진행하였으나, 향후 연구에서 국가간 차이를 비교하는 것도 의미 있을 것이다. 또한, 주관적 행복이 대안 평가에 미치는 영향의 메커니즘을 밝히기 위하여 예상되는 후회감, 고통, 기쁨 등을 매개변수로 놓고 추가 연구를 진행할 필요가 있다.

The IMO (International Maritime Organization) has mandated the restriction of SOx emissions to 0.5 % for all international sailing vessels since January 2020. And, a number of countries have designated emission control areas for stricter environmental regulations. Three representative methods have been suggested to cope with these regulations; using low-sulphur oil, installing a scrubber, or using LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) as fuel. In this paper, economic analysis was performed by comparing the method of installing a scrubber with the method of using low-sulphur oil without installing additional equipment. We suggested plausible layouts and compared the pros and cons of dif erent scrubber types for retrofitting. We selected an international sailing ship as the target vessel and estimated payback time and benefits based on navigation route, fuel consumption, and installation and operation costs. Two case of oil prices were analyzed considering the uncertainty of fuel oil price fluctuation. We found that the expected payback time of investment varies from 1 year to 3.5 years depending on the operation ratio of emission control areas and the fuel oil price change.

The purpose of this research is to analyze perceptions of consumers and willingness to play for high-priced food. The price dispersions of four food categories - soybean sprouts, tofu, milk, and egg - were analyzed through the market analysis, and the survey with the structured questionnaire was utilized to get information on the reason why consumers buy and don't buy the high-priced food. It tested whether a consumer would change the choice if the new product information on safety issues is offered and if the price of high-priced food is lowed. Results showed that generally consumers don't have the confidence on the level of safety and comparative advantages of quality of high-priced food, but they just purchase the high-priced food as long as they can afford it.
