This paper studies the relationship between SCM(Supply Chain Management) metrics and corporate value (Tobin's Q) for manufacturing and wholesale/retail firms in Korea. Specifically, the multiple regression analysis is used to investigate the relationships 1) between inventory level, inventory turns, and days of inventory and Tobin's Q and 2) between cash-to-cash (C2C) cycle time including its components such as days of inventory, days sales outstanding, and days payable outstanding and Tobin's Q. The results indicate that there exist statistically significant negative relationships between inventory levels and days of inventory (DOI) and Tobin's Q. Also, we found that there exist commonly known negative correlations between days of raw materials inventory and days of work in process (WIP) inventory and Tobin's Q. For the C2C cycle time, we found that there -exists a statistically significant negative relationship between the C2C cycle time and Tobin's Q. Also, we found that there exist commonly known correlations between the two components of C2C cycle time and Tobin's Q such as the negative for DOI and days sales outstanding. This study clearly shows the negative relationship in general between inventory levels and corporate value and between C2C time and corporate value, and this kind of result has not been found by previous studies in Korea.

본 연구는 사업구조조정을 위하여 기업이 자발적으로 자산을 매각할 때, 부채변제 목적으로 자산을 매각하는 경우를 제외한 재투자 목적으로 자산을 매각한 경우에 없어 자산매각에 따른 주가변동인 공시효과를 살펴보고 또한 이런 공시효과가 매각기업의 매각직전 경영성과인 Tobin's Q에 따라 달리 나타날 수 있으므로 이에 따른 공시효과의 차이를 비교해 본다. 그 다음에, 기업이 자산매각을 통하여 확보한 유동성을 새로 재투자할 기회를 갖는 자산매각의 경우에 있어, 이런 기회가 사업을 집중화할 목적인지 혹은 아닌지에 따라 장기간의 경영성과인 Tobin's Q와 어떤 영향관계를 갖는 지와, 또 매각자산의 상대적 매각규모가 장기간의 경영성과와 어떤 영향관계를 갖는 지를 분석한다. 분석결과, 자산매각에 대한 중시효과는 통계적으로 유의한 정의 비정상수익률을 실현하였으며, 자산매각직전의 경영성과를 나타내는 Tobin's Q값의 우열에 따리 분류한 4사분위별 집단의 비정상수익률은 Tobin's Q값이 낮거나 높은 기업일수록 정의 비정상수익률을 크게 실현하였다. 그리고 사업을 집중화할 목적으로 자산매각을 실시한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우에 없어서 경영성과는 두 집단간에 유의적인 차이를 나타냈으나, 매각이후 각 연도기말의 Tobin's Q값들 사이에 대한 전년도와의 차이는 통계적인 유의성을 찾을 수가 없었다. 그렇지만 기업의 경영성과인 Tobin's Q는 집중화 집단이 비집중화 집단보다 크게 나타났었다. 또한 자산매각 이후에 없어, Tobin's Q와 집중화등기 및 상대적 매각규모는 유의적인 정의 관계를 나타냈다.었다.가 높은 한국, 영국, 독일에서는 환율이 주가에 비해 선행하여 변동한다고 볼 수 있다.하는 것이 필요할 것이다. 초과가치가 크게 나타나는 것으로 분석되어, 다각화 기업이 더 많은 부채부담능력을 가질 수 있고, 부채의 세금절감효과에 의해 기업가치를 증가시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.있는 과정이므로 장기기대 주가의 미지성이 평균회귀 과정의 기각을 유도하게 된다. 우리나라의 투자자들은 무위험자산과 위험을 동시에 고려하여 투자활동을 전개하고 있음이 발견되었다. 선형의 효용함수를 갖는 위험중립적 태도의 투자자가 아니다. 위험기피형 효용함수 아래에서 투자활동을 수행하고 있는 합리적 투자자들이라 할 수 있다. 뿐 만 아니라 자신의 평생에 걸친 소비를 소비가 이루어지는 각 기마다 가급적 일정하게 하는 소비행동을 목표로 삼고 소비와 투자에 대한 의사결정을 내리고 있음이 실증분석을 통하여 밝혀졌다. 투자자들은 무위험 자산과 위험성 자산을 동시에 고려하여 포트폴리오를 구성하는 투자활동을 행동에 옮기고 있다.서, Loser포트폴리오를 매수보유하는 반전거래전략이 Winner포트폴리오를 매수보유하는 계속거래전략보다 적합한 전략임을 알 수 있었다. 다섯째, Loser포트폴리오와 Winner포트폴리오를 각각 투자대상종목으로써 매수보유한 반전거래전략과 계속거래 전략에 대한 유용성을 비교검증한 Loser포트폴리오와 Winner포트폴리오 각각의 1개월 평균초과수익률에 의하면, 반전거래전략의 Loser포트폴리오가 계속거래전략의 Winner포트폴리오보다 약 5배정도의 높은 1개월 평균초과수익률을 실현하였고, 반전거래전략의 유용성을

In this research, it is empirically tested whether firm value after the adoption of IFRS is increased in Korea and China using Tobin's Q model. In Korea, IFRS was mandatorily adopted in 2011 for all companies. China mandated IFRS conversion for public traded companies starting 2007. The revisions bring Chinese standards closer to the IFRS benchmark of internationally recognized quality, but the new standards will not be word-for-word translations of IFRS, though they founded on similar principle. We expect the different adoption process between Korea and China can make different impact of IFRS on firm value. The results are summarized as follows. First, Tobin's Q seems to be increased after the adoption of IFRS, and the firm value is significantly different between before and after IFRS adoption in Korea. Second, Tobin's Q seems to be increased after the adoption of IFRS, but the analysis by t-test is not significantly higher for post IFRS. These results could be a good finding in that the impact of IFRS adoption on firm value is different by adoption process.

Many researchers have studied to investigate causes of volatility and they have used macro economic variables. This paper defined the volatility as that of stock. Researches on the volatility of stock and corporate performances are not adequate yet. Therefore, this paper estimate the volatility and corporate performances using ROA and Tobin Q. Results show the following suggestions, first, there is negative effect on the volatility of stock when we use ROA as the corporate performances. Second, there is positive effect on the volatility of stock when we use Tobin Q as the corporate performances.

This research is purposed to analyze the effect of firms' current socially responsible management on the future corporate financial performance with specified areas of socially responsible management according to the beneficiaries. Tobin's Q statistic and return on assets are calculated and exploited as measures of corporate financial performance. as of empirical analysis results, we found that the social contributions in the consumer area and external social contribution at time t influence the Tobin's Q statistic at time (t+1) in the aggregate analysis. as it is revealed that there is no effect in the firms with the outstanding social performance to the future corporate financial performance, we understand that the capital market is very sensitive to the external social contribution including consumers of firms with the weak social performance rather than the social contribution of socially outstanding firms. This sensitivity of capital market can effectively enhance the social contribution of firms, in particular listed firms with the weak social performance.

From intuitional viewpoint many researchers have been considering that information technology investment serves to increase the productivity and the profitability of firm. But the empirical studies that have examined the relationship between information technology investment and firm performance have reported mixed findings. In spite of that, recently there has been growing recognition of the importance of assessing information technology investment in determining future performance of firms. This study examines the relationship between investment in information technology and performance of securities companies in Korea. I use Tobin's Q, a financial market-based measure of firm performance and investigates the pure effect of information technology investment on firm performance after controlling for a variety of firm specific variables which may affect on firm performance. This study finds that information technology investment have a significantly positive association with Tobin's Q. This result implicates that information technology investment contributes to a firm's future performance potential.

This study examines whether expenditures in information technology (IT) are associated with increases in the Tobin's q ratios a measure of organizational performance. It uses two groups of sample, Korean and American firms that disclose IT expenditures. For the all-firms group of each country, the association between IT expenditures and Tobin's q ratios is positive and statistically significant. But the association varies among industries. For Korean firms, IT expenditures appear to increase Tobin's q ratios for the machine and equipment manufacturing industry group (SIC3-2). IT expenditure ratio of this group as a percent of total sales is highest among the industry groups. For all service industry groups(SIC4&5), the estimated coefficient of IT expenditures is positive but statistically insignificant. For American firms IT expenditures in most of the manufacturing industry groups appear to increase only a little, if at all, for the Tobin's q ratios. But IT expenditures appear to have a greater impact on Tobin's q ratios for all service industries (SIC4-7). For three service industries tested (transportation and telecommunication- SIC4, financial- SIC6, consulting and other service industry- SIC7), the estimated coefficient of IT expenditures is positive and statistically significant. The evidence from both Korean and American firms suggests that IT expenditures in service industries provide a greater impact on an organizational performance than ones in manufacturing industry. To test whether service industries use a competitive strategy utilizing IT as a core competence, the samples ore divided into two groups, service and manufacturing industry. For Korean firms, both IT and R&D expenditures in manufacturing industry are associated with increases in Tobin's q ratios. But for service industry, the estimated coefficient of only IT expenditure is positive. For American firms, the estimated coefficients of both IT and advertising and R&D (ARD) expenditures in manufacturing industry are positive but the coefficient of only ARD is statistically significant. For service industry, the estimated coefficient of only IT expenditure is positive and statistically significant. The evidence may suggest that manufacturing industry uses both R&D and IT strategies to increase a competitive advantage but uses R&D strategy as a core competence. However, service industry uses IT strategy as a core competence to increase a competitive advatage.

This study empirically examines the impact of firms' environmental (E), social (S), and governancial (G) factors on their short-term and long-term values. To measure firms' non-financial performance, we use ESG performance grades published by KCGS (Korea Corporate Governance Service). We employ stock log return as the proxy of each firm's short-term value, and Tobin's Q ratio as that of its long-term value. From a series of regression analyses, we find each of the ESG factors generally has a negative impact on stock return while it has a positive impact on the Tobin's Q ratio. These results imply that firms' effort for enhancing their non-financial performance may adversely affect their financial performance in a short term; but in the long-term point of view, firms' values increase through their good images engraved by their respective social, environmental and governancial efforts. In addition, we compare the relative strength of impact among E, S, G, the three non-financial factors on the firms' value measured in Tobin's Q ratio, and find that S (social factor) and G (governancial factor) give statistically significant impact on the firms' value respectively. This result tells us it would be advised to strategically embed CSV (creating shared value) pursuing both of profits and social responsibility in the firms' future agenda. While E (environmental factor) is shown to be an insignificant factor for the firms' value, it should be emphasized as a major concern by all the stakeholders in order to form a sound business ecosystem.

The two main purposes of this paper are to (1) identify factors that influence the safety of e-Business and (2) investigate the explanatory power of these factors on firm performance. Through an extensive literature review and expert panel reviews, a list of 9 factors consisting of 36 items was compiled. In the second stage, questionnaires were administered to managers of e-Business companies in the metropolitan area of Seoul, Korea. Respondents rate 'Information Management,' as the most influencing factor, and then in the order of 'Payment,' 'Security Programs,' and 'Intrusion.' And survey results show that factors have very significant explanatory power for firm performance. While 'Information Management,' 'Delivery,' 'Intrusion,' and 'Security Programs' are the most explanatory factors for Tobin's q, 'Government Policy,' 'Delivery,' 'Intrusion,' 'Awareness,' and 'Security Programs' show most explanatory power for ROA.
