Distribution of fish products from Tongyoung Marine ranching can be classified by three routes such as street-stall, live fish transportation vehicles, and wholesale markets neighboring unloading ports. These methods of distribution, however, have been restricted by limited distribution right, difficulties to differentiate fish prices from other surfaces, simple marketing channels. The ratio of cultured live fish circulated in market is increasing while naturally caught live fish is decreasing and the fresh fish shows a little of increasing rate. Consumers purchasing routes mainly depend on the live fish transportation merchants. For fresh fish traditional market plays an important role in trade. Convenience for consumers and quality of products are main factors in making decision of purchases. Bargaining power, however, belongs to the live fish transportation merchants. The demand of special markets for live fish was very strong, and the convenience and quality are relatively important required factors. Catch from Tongyoung Marine ranching has very good reputation as the possibility of being a good brand. Expecting possibility of quality differentiation was higher than price differentiation specially. The possible conclusion of a contract of a supply was suspicious however. Preliminary quality evaluation revealed that the catch is better than the cultured but worse than naturally grown fish. A merchandising is to be in a better position in the formation of prices by giving $\ulcorner$brand image$\lrcorner$ to potential consumers. The target markets are retail stores such as restaurants for raw fish and final consumers. The staple markets are retail stores. Possible items of products are live fish, fresh fish for cook, and fresh fish for raw fish. It is necessary for the catch to be informed as new functional products that have been improved in safety and quality, since the product positioning is similar but not well known to consumers. To secure a brand it is required to register a trademark, eco-label product design or packing, use real name in tranction, introduce recall system, and put label. Price higher than naturally grown live fish should be targeted. Establishing broad distribution channel, wholesale market, franchise are required. To secure enough catch and control shipment of products facilities of containing live fish are necessary. Instead of dealing with live fish only, it would be better to. sell fresh fish and live fish simultaneous. Strategically promotion focuses on advertisement of Marin ranching at first and then focuses on the catch from the marine ranching.

Purpose: This study is to contribute to the development of monitoring technology through the increase of confidence in construction monitoring by deriving the analysis of construction monitoring cost and improvement measures of railway tunnel construction in Seoul. Method: It presents the status on design and contract of construction monitoring cost, status on application construction monitoring cost and its analysis, analysis on safety management cost and quality management cost, expansion of application of the price calculation standard for monitoring management services to improve this, and monitoring for direct order of ordering organization. Results: If the monitoring management service that was meanwhile ordered as included in the construction work is performed by the directly selected company of ordering organization through the preliminary screening for bidding qualification, then the improvement of monitoring quality and the accurate monitoring data can be secured. Conclusion: For the price calculation standard for monitoring management service, the application of actual cost addition method under the Engineering Promotion Act and the calculation standard of monitoring management cost for standard estimation for ground survey should be extended through the direct order of ordering organization, not the method to be included in the net construction cost where it is performed by a subcontractor via contractor.

Inadequate cost management has widely been recognized as one of the most problematic areas in the Korean construction industry as many believes that public cost references are not reasonably reflecting the market conditions. 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline' developed by Ministry of Economy and Finance(MOEF) to govern public budget control has been identified as one of the main reasons for this problem. This study attempts to thoroughly review 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline' itself and quantitatively analyze the impact of it on project cost during procurement process. Different procurement methods are considered including turnkey & alternative, private contract, qualification examination, and lowest price bidding system in this quantitative impact analysis of 'Total Project Cost Management Guideline'. Analysis results shows that this governmental process works mainly as a constant cost-cutting tool throughout the procurement process.

Case Study about the management of bakery menu through a menu analysis: This study checked the sales of bakeries this researcher has operated for 4 weeks before evaluating the menu with Kasavana & Smith Analysis, changing the position of the menu on the theoretical base of space composition and then checking the sales for 4 weeks again and analyzing in the same way. The study compared the two groups by using the menu analysis. The menu used in the analysis included 31 items produced in the stores and 29 items turned out from the headquarters. The results of the menu evaluation through Kasavana & Smith Analysis are as follows: (i) before changing the position of the menu 22 Stars, 20 Puzzles, 15 Plowhorses, 13 Dogs (ii) after changing the position 18 Stars, 24 Puzzles, 12 Plowhorses, 6 Dogs During the study, it was inconvenient that many things not thought about before were discovered. The limitations of the study are as below: a) when the displayed items were sold out, they couldn't be supplied continuously. The items from the headquarters were supplied as many as the ordered volume. As the stores prepared materials only for the day, they only produced bakeries as many as the dairy target. So it is difficult for them to keep extra bakery. b) it is natural that a new item make the sales of the existing items cut down. During the study, there appeared a new item, which influenced on the sales. c) as the store this researcher manages is smaller than the others, it was difficult to change all the position of the menu. With only 18 items changing their positions, there couldn't obtain more accurate data. d) because of the franchise contract, there fixed the prices of supply and sale. Therefore the price of Plowhorse couldn't be changed. However on the base of this study, it can search more specific ways to efficiently manage the bakery business in the future.

International construction contractors are often faced with the situation of working in an unfamiliar construction environment. Under FIDIC rules, the contractor has the right to make a claim requesting the consulting engineer for an adjustment to the contract price or the time for completion when a part or parts of the works have changed, or in the event of unforeseeable conditions. Contractors generally have more access to the costs and time implications of such a change or unforeseeable conditions than the consulting engineer or outside neutrals. Due to such an asymmetry of information, the contractor may be motivated to dispute frivolous claims of less merit, expecting erroneous judgments by the consulting engineer or the neutrals. In this paper, a claiming behavior model is presented by using game theory and experience data to study the manner in which frivolous claims develop into disputes. The model also analyzes the impacts of DAB/DRB upon the frivolous claims.

On December, 1996, Construction Management(CM) was introduced in Korean construction industry due to its managerial efficiency proven in the international construction industries. However, It have had serious problems with many regulations, standards, manuals and details of practices considering its constituents and industry conditions. Especially, there were controversial points in the CM fee estimate; difference between the fee on the owner's view point and that from contractor's that impedes appropriate CM services. Therefore, this paper is to analyze public construction projects into Cm fee calculation such as fee as a percent of construction cost, cost plus fixed fee and contract price, and analyzed what is irrationality and why irrationality is made. So it makes a contribution to a study on standards for paper CM fee calculation.

The foundation for developing a cost estimation system based on historical data has been being prepared in Korea. Historical data is a priori of developing a cost estimation model. Cost Index, one of the historical data, is used to estimate construction cost and to adjust the amount of contract money in the foreign country, whereas it is not used in domestic except for the road construction project in Korea. Construction cost indices can be used by an estimator in tender analysis, pricing, price adjustment, cost planning, and forecasting. In this regards, this paper identified the problems in developing Cost Index evaluation process by comparing the standard of framing Cost Index used in British to the one used in Korea. Then, the scheme for improving a Cost Index required for Site Developing Construction was proposed. Twenty-two cases of engineering estimate data were used to compare the domestic standard to the foreign one in deriving a Cost Index.

Peru is located on Andean Range and faced Pacific Ocean and one of the important oil and gas production countries in the South America. Peru's oil business have been invested by foreign oil companies due to the good investment environment, even though the Peru could not be self-sufficiency in oil. Increase in oil price of the world has contributed to the oil and gas developments and productions in the last few years in many oil and gas blocks, such as in the 1-AB blocks and Camisea gas field within the Amazon jungles. Korean oil companies also have obtained several oil and gas blocks in the Peru in last few year, corresponding with the resources diplomacy of Korean government. Investment is strongly expected to be increased in the Peru's oil business due to positive investment environment, such as low royalty rate, tax avoidance, and the favourable terms of the contract to foreign companies etc.

CISG provides the place of payment at the Article 57 which if the buyer is not bound to pay the price at any other particular place, he must pay it to the seller (a) at the seller's p lace of business or (b) if the payment is to be made against the handing over of the goods or of documents, at the place where the handing over takes place. When the parties have agreed that payment is to be made against the handing over of the goods or of documents, the place where this is to happen according to the contract or CISG is the place of payment. When the parties have not agreed to this, the place of payment is the seller's place of payment. The buyer does not send the money to seller's office, but pays it to the seller's bank account. Where payment is effected by a L/C, such operations shall be governed by UCP and collection of money governed by URC. The payment at the seller's place of payment affects the rate of interest, currency of money and jurisdiction which is interpreted by Brussel convention and Lugano convention. The principle on which the CISG is based, characterizes the obligation of payment as an obligation to be performed at the creditor's place of business. This principle affects the place of damage claims payable to be at the creditor's that place. Payment at the place of business is required, but not inside the place itself.
