이 논문은 한국 쇠고기 시장을 대상으로 도매 단계와 소매 단계에 초점을 맞추어 유통업자들의 시장지배력 정도를 측정하였다. 다양한 유통 채널상에 존재하는 가격들을 보면 유통비용 외에 추가적인 가격 차이가 있음을 보게 되는 데 이러한 비용을 넘는 가격 차이가 시장지배력을 보여주는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 연별 가격과 물량 자료를 이용하여 도매 단계와 소매 단계에서 유통상인들의 시장지배력을 측정하였다. 추정 결과를 보면, 소매단계는 완전경쟁에서 멀리 떨어져 있음을 알 수 있고, 도매단계는 상대적으로 완전경쟁에 가까운 것으로 나타났다.

This paper analyzes competition among service stations in the Korean gasoline market. We consider spatial differentiation as a source of product differentiation as well as the characteristics of the stations and vertical contracts between refiners and retailers as factors causing changes in equilibrium prices in the Korean gasoline retail market. The effect of the government's price disclosure policy on the retail market competition is also analyzed. Moran's I test indicates that the prices of neighboring gas stations are spatially correlated in the market. It is also found that gasoline prices for vertically integrated stations are much lower than those for independent stations. In addition, unbranded stations charge lower prices than branded stations but also induce branded stations to price more competitively. Meanwhile, the government's price disclosure policy did intensify price competition in the retail gasoline market. It is inferred that the price disclosure policy contributed to retailers gaining more bargain power in price negotiation with refiners, causing an eventual increase in retail prices.

Purpose - This paper aims to investigate a profit maximizing incentive of foreign traders in distributing the KOSPI 200 Futures. Such an incentive may induce unsophisticated retail traders to suffer loss from speculative trading. Since Korean government increased the entry barriers of the market to protect unsophisticated traders, the market size has been decreasing while the proportion of the contract held by foreign traders has been increasing. These on going changes make the market imperfectly competitive, where a profit maximization incentives of foreign traders are expected to grow. In this paper, we attempt to find any evidence of such behavior, thereby providing implications regarding market policy and market efficiency. Research design, data, and methodology - According to Kyle(1985), an informed trader exploits his/her monopoly power optimally in a dynamic context so that he/she makes positive profit, where he/she could conceal his/her trading utilizing noise trading as camouflage. We apply the KOSPI 200 Futures market to the Kyle's model: foreign traders who take into account the effect of his/her trading to maximize expected profits as an informed trader, retail investors as noise traders, and financial institutions as market makers. To find any evidence of monopolistic behavior, we test the variants of trading volume and price data of the KOSPI 200 Futures over the period of 2009 and 2017. Results - First, we find that the price of the KOSPI 200 Futures are more volatile than the price of underlying asset. Second, we find that monopolistic foreign trader's trading order flows are consistent with exploiting his/her monopoly power to maximize profit. Finally, we find that retail investors' trading order flows are inversely consistent with maximizing profit, that is, uninformed retail investors suffer loss continuously in speculative trading against informed traders. Conclusions - Our results show that the quantity of strategic order flows may have a large effect on the price, therefore, resulting the market inefficiency. The results also imply that, in implementing regulations, the depth of the market must be considered to maintain market liquidity, and suggesting interesting research topics regarding the market structure.

This study investigated commercial power theory of traditional market through the analysis of literature review. Consumers' store selection models are made up a theory based on normative hypothesis, theory of mutual reaction, utility function estimation model, and cognitive-behavioral model. Detailed models are as follows. Normative hypothesis based theory is divided into Reilly's retail gratification theory and Converse's revised retail g ratification theory. Interaction theory is composed of Huff's probability gratification theory, MCI model and Multi-nominal Logit Model (MNL model). There are four models in retail organization position theory such as central place theories, single store position theory, multi store position - assign model, and retail growth potential model. In case of single store position theory, theoretical and empirical techniques have developed for a decision to optimum single store position. Those are like these, a check list, the most simple and systematic method, analogy, and microanalysis technique. Aforementioned models are theoretical and mathematical commercial power measurement and/or model. The study has rather limitations because the variation factors included in formula are only a part of actual commercial power. Therefore, further study shall be made continuously to commercial power areas and variables.

New retailers, especially giant retailers, so called "mart" or "discounter" which introduced around 1996, when Korea's domestic retail market was opened to the world, have brought big transitions. Consequently, new comers like discounters and CVS drove out department stores, mom & pops and traditional retailers. Literatures showed two reverse opinions for the giant retailers; rising consumers' benefit, or dropping small retailers' businesses. This study have conducted to find the situation of market concentration in retail market, and to learn the new market condition in it. According to the study, in 2005, CR3's of Korea's whole retail industry was counted 12.8%, and CR5 of that was 13.9%. CR3 of discount store business was 39%, department stores' 55%, and TV home shopping businesses' was 75%. In addition to those results, indices growing worse. So, we can say this industry already get into the oligopolistic industrial organization. Generally, under monopolistic or oligopolistic market structure, consumers' benefit may shrink and businesses' surplus profit may jump. So, it means, it's good time to turn government's policy for the retail industry in Korea to fair competition policy instead of development policy.

경쟁구조와 산업성과 간의 관계에 대한 연구는 경쟁정책 분야의 핵심 주제이다. 특히 통신 산업과 같이 독과점적 시장을 형성할 가능성이 큰 산업에서는 독점력이 산업성과(후생)에 미치는 영향과 효과에 대해 보다 심도 있는 연구가 필요하다. 즉 소수 사업자로 시장이 집중되면, 독과점에 의한 초과이윤의 개연성이 높아지고 이는 사회후생 증대에 부정적이기 때문이다. 이러한 배경 하에 본 연구는 이동통신 산업의 시장구조(시장 지배력 형태)와 사회후생 성과(요금 인하)의 관계를 국제비교를 통해 실증하고자한다. 구체적으로, OECD 주요 21개국을 대상으로 국내시장의 경쟁구조 변화양상과 사회후생 성과수준을 비교하며, 시장지배력 수준에 따른 평균 소매요금 인하율의 차이를 실증한다. 분석결과는 국내시장의 경쟁상황 및 시장구조는 글로벌 추세와 상당한 괴리가 있음을 보여준다. 또한 독점시장으로 인식되는 1위 사업자의 점유율(CR1>50)이 높은 시장에서는 소비자 후생을 증진시키는 요금인하가 더디게 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 시장지배력이 강한 독점적 사업자의 독점력 완화가 요금인하, 후생증대에 중요한 요소임을 보여주며, 경쟁정책의 방향이 시장집중도(HHI)의 개선뿐 아니라 지배적 사업자의 독점력 완화에도 초점을 두어야 함을 시사한다.

With the advent of electric power systems moving to a deregulated retail electricity market environment, calculating distribution service tariffs has become a challenging theme for distribution industries and tariff regulators. As distribution business remains as a monopoly, it is necessary to be regulated. And as multiple distribution companies compete with each other, it would be efficient to adopt competition to the determination of distribution service tariffs. This paper proposes a method to calculate distribution service tariffs using yardstick regulation, which can lead to competition among multiple distribution companies. The proposed method takes into account not only recovering revenue requirements but also the advantages of the yardstick regulation based on long-term marginal costs of distribution network expansion algorithms. A computer simulation is carried out to illustrate effectiveness of the proposed method and it is estimated that the algorithm can be applied to compute the distribution service tariffs under retail electricity markets.

본 연구는 전력소매시장이 개방되어 각종 결합서비스가 제공되는 것을 가정할 때 소비자들의 효용 수준 변화를 분석하였다. 컨조인트법을 이용하여 전력공급에 대한 효용함수와 결합서비스에 대한 지불의사액을 추정하였다. 결과는 두 가지로 요약된다. 첫째, 소비자들은 전력공급에 대해서는 기존의 기업 한국전력을 선호한다. 둘째, 소비자들은 전력시장의 결합서비스 자체에 대해서 선호하지 않는다는 것이다. 소비자들은 전력에 대한 결합서비스에 대해서 부정적인 효과를 더 크게 느낄 수 있는데, 에너지 산업은 매우 전문적인 산업으로 결합은 전문성을 떨어뜨려 서비스의 질을 낮출 가능성이 있기 때문일 것이다. 즉, 모든 조건이 똑 같다면 소비자들은 개별 에너지 전문 기업으로 부터 서비스 공급을 받는 것을 선호한다. 따라서 전력 결합서비스가 소비자에게 보다 높은 효용을 제공하고 시장에서 선택받기 위해서는 추가적인 가격할인이나 결합으로 인한 추가 서비스가 제공되어야 할 것이다.
