I investigate whether the efficient ratios used as the proxies of the agency costs maintained by Ang et al.(2000) is significant. Utilizing a sample of 77 manufacturing companies listed on the KOSDAQ from the TS2000 of the KSDA, The results are as follows. Agency costs are found to be decreasing with the ownership share of controlling shareholders and accounting performance becomes higher. But firm value measured by Tobin's Q ratio becomes lower according as the ownership of the controlling shareholders increases. If agency costs decrease in proportion to controlling shareholder's share, firm value should be higher according to the agency theory by Jensen and Meckling(I976). But the results of the empirical test of this study are inconsistent with Jensen and Meckling's(1976). Therefore the following study on the more useful proxies stand for agency costs should be needed.

In this paper, we propose a mathematical optimization model with a suitable algorithm to determine delivery and backlogging quantities by minimizing the total cost including the penalty costs for delay. The system has fixed transshipment costs and demands are fulfilled by some delivery units that represent the volume of delivery amount to be shipped in a single time period. Since, backlogging is allowed, demands could be delivered later at the expense of some penalty costs. The model provides the optimal decisions on when and how much to he delivered while minimizing the total costs. To solve the problem, we propose an algorithm that uses the Lagrangian dual in conjunction with some primal heuristic techniques that exploit the special structure of the problem. Finally, we present some computational test results along with comments on the further study.

The price systems of the hospital drug services play key roles in the provision of quality services and the development of pharmacy service technologies. Under the premises, this study attempted to determine the costs of hospital drug service, to compare the costs calculated with the fees publicly fixed by the Government, and based on the results of the analysis, to propose directions for the improvement of the price systems. A Costing model for the study was developed based on the cost-fee relationship analysed of the Korean fee-for-service systems. Data on costs and workloads of the 25 hospitals were collected through survey forms designed for the costing' and analysis for the duration of 12 months of 1998. The results of the analysis show that a tremendous unbalance between cost and price levels of the drug services, and that overally the price level of the services is extremely low when compared to the costs of services. Based on these findings, this study suggests that unfairly high or low price level be corrected, and that service items newly developed and being practiced at tertiary hospitals, such as TDM and TPN consultation services, be compensated by fixing a proper level of price.

This study explored determinants of family support that young renter households received to afford their housing costs. Microdata set of the 2014 Korea Housing Survey was used as secondary data for the study. Total 1,752,899 households headed by persons between 20 and 34 years of age and whose rental type was either Jeon-se or monthly rental with deposit in private rental units were selected as study subjects. For the data analysis, a series of discriminant analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS 21.0. Major findings were as follows. (1) Among the subjects, 28.2% were found to receive financial support from parents or other relatives. (2) To see the discriminant analysis results, a linear combination of seven household and housing characteristics (householder's gender, whether or not the householder worked in the previous week, whether or not the householders have a spouse, tenure type, structure type, location and deposit amount) could explain 44.6% of variance in young renter households' receipt of family support with a prediction accuracy of 77.2%. (3) To summarize the final discriminant model, Jeon-se renter households in location other than Incheon or Gyeonggi Province living in a unit in structure other than multifamily structure headed by younger householders that did not worked previous week or without spouse; with a greater deposit had the maximum tendency to receive family support to pay rental costs.

본 연구는 기본적으로 소유구조(내부 외국인 지분율)가 대리인 비용(자산효율성 비중 영업외비용 비중)에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 가에 대한 실증연구이다. 그러나 소유구조와 대리인 비용의 상관성에 대한 기존연구들이 단순히 Pooled OLS Model을 사용하고 있기에 본 연구에서는 단순 Pooled OLS Model이 방대한 양의 패널형 자료의 검증에는 통계적 신뢰성이 부족하다는 전제하에, Pooled-OLS Model의 적합성 검증 결과를 토대로, 자료형성의 시점 및 기업의 효과를 반영하는 Fixed Effect Model과 Random Effect Model을 추가적인 연구모형으로 형성하고 이를 비교분석함으로써 실증분석 결과의 신뢰성 및 통계적 타당성을 높이고자 하였다. 연구 자료는 IMF 경제 위기 이후인 1998~2007년까지 10년간이며 금융업을 제외한 331개 기업을 대상으로 하였다. 주요 결과로는 모델의 적합성 검증결과 대리인 비용 항목 중 자산효율성 비중은 Random Effect Model을 사용하는 것이 적절하였으나 이에 반하여 영업외비용 비중은 Fixed Effect Model의 사용이 적합하였다. 이에 따른 실증분석결과는 Pooled OLS Model에서 채택되었던 가설이 대부분 기각되는 결과가 나왔다. 이는 실증분석에 있어서 사용하는 모형에 따라 다른 분석결과의 도출이 가능하다는 점을 보여주어 연구 자료에 따른 적합한 연구모형의 형성이 통계적으로 유의한 실증결과의 도출을 위해 무엇보다 중요하다는 점을 시사하고 있다.

This paper is to examine the relevance of banarptcy Costs (BC) to Capital Structure with three related purposes: whether or not BC are trival,, a proxy methodology for estimating BC, the present value of expected BC vs tax benefits' trade off. For these purposes, the samples includes 19 industrial firms which went bankrupt over period 1970-78 and secondly seven large Companies which went bankrnpt recently in the U.S. The results are quite strong that BC are not trival. In many cases they exceed 20% of the value of the firm measured just prior to bankruptcy. Direct BC are explicit and administrative costs paid by debtor in reorganization/liqaidation process. Indirect BC are essentially defined as unexpected losses and estimated in two way: a regression method and security analyst's forcasts. The present value of expected BC for many of the bankrupt firm is found to exceed the present value of tax benefits from leverage. This implies that firms were overleveraged and that a potentially important ingredient in the discussion of optimum capital structure is indeed the BC factor. Therefore, BC are relevant to the cost of capital structure decision and should he considered seriously.

In this light of economical engineering, the optimal configurations of ship structure that can save weights, production costs and operation costs should be investigated. This paper presents the general method of optimization based on non-linear programming and its application to weight and/or cost minimization of ship structure. Oil tanker is chosen as a ship type because of simple layout and easy calculation of stress. With the data of 16,200 DWT oil tanker built by KSEC 1980, this paper shows the procedure mentioned above by means of SUMT combined with two selected search methods. Then the differences between original and redesigned tanker structures are discussed.

This work studies the behaviour of a steel portal frame selection under fire exposure, considering both span lengths and fire exposure times as variables. Such structures combine carbon steel (S275), fireproof micro-alloyed steel (FR), and coatings of intumescent paint with variable thicknesses, improving thereby the flame retardant behaviour of the steel structure. Thus, the main contribution of this study is the optimization of the portal frames by combining both steels, analysing the resulting costs influence on the final dimensions. Besides, the topological optimization of each steel component within the structure is also defined, in accordance with the following variables: weather conditions, span, paint thickness, and cost of steel. The results mainly confirmed that using both FR and S275 grades with intumescent painting is the Pareto optimum when considering performance, feasibility and costs of such portal frames widely used for industrial facilities.

본 연구는 부산항과 인천항간 컨테이너 연안운송이 중단된 배경을 비용구조와 수입 배분의 특성, 시장에서 기업의 행동상 제약으로 구분하여 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 연안운송의 국내물류체계와 연관된 선박 운영비용의 구조를 고찰하고 비용함수를 추정하였다. 또한 연안선사내 운영수입의 배분비율을 살펴보았으며, 144TEU급과 215TEU 급 선박의 평균수입을 산정하였다. 경제적 제약 측면에서는 기업의 이윤 극대화 혹은 손실 최소화라는 목표를 전제로, 연안운송의 중단 원인을 찾으려 노력하였다. 연구 결과, 연안운송은 운영비용 측면에서 최대적재능력에 가까운 적재율을 실현하고 대형선박을 투입할 경우 규모의 경제를 실현할 수 있었다. 운영수입에서는 트럭운송시장의 영향, 복잡한 물류체계에 따른 낮은 평균수입으로 적자가 누적될 가능성이 있었다. 경제적으로는 평균수입이 평균비용보다 낮아, 연안선사가 서비스를 중단하였던 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 전용선박에 의한 연안운송이 지속되려면 정부 등의 보조금 지원이 필요하다고 판단된다.
