  • This study is aimed to investigate the structure of world pollack markets and the position/competitiveness or Korea for WTO/NAMA Negotiation. First or all, it is clearly pointed out that many limitations and problems are inherent in FAO statistics that is widely utilized to investigate the structure of international seafood markets. Especially, it is impossible to find not only the data for Russia that is the top production and export country of pollack, but also the data for importing/exporting countries for pollack. In order to make up for these problems, the data for export and import of major countries are collected and analyzed. The results of analysis show the followings. First, it is clearly investigated that classification of fish products are different for countries. Second, it is understood the structure of international pollack market in actuality. The pollack market is segmented by frozen, fresh, dried, fillet, roe, surimi, etc. In addition, the pollack market has grown as much as 600,000 tons in amount and $1.2billion in value. Third, competitiveness of Korea in international pollack markets is measured quantitatively. It shows that Korea has low RAC index and TSI index, but high RMI index. Thus, it is identified that Korea becomes the largest pollack importing country. Fourth, the partial equilibrium analysis on pollack import market of Korea indicates that the frozen pollack has both price elasticity and substitution elasticity, while the fresh pollack has income elasticity.

  • The purpose of this paper is to compare the amount of household health expenditures (HHE) and the proportion of health care expenditure to the household expenditure by ability to pay(ATP) levels. This study has focused on the influence of household ATP on HHE, estimating elasticity of health care expenditures for different ATP groups. For the empirical analysis, the Urban Households Survey Data of 2002 have been used. Our principal findings show that HHE are sensitive to changes in household ATP levels and that the group which is most responsive to changes in A TP level is the lower ATP group. These suggest that as households have less ATP, households with lower ATP reduce expenditures on health care in a proportional manner than those with higher ATP.

  • Through time-series plots, we can see relatively stable trend of energy factor share and the decreasing trend of relative energy prices (to wages) in Korea. We can compromise these empirical facts with the following explanation: if elasticity of substitution between capital and energy is smaller than one(<1) in Korea, a change(decrease) in energy price can prevent income share of resources from rising in the process of economic growth. This is consistent with theoretical and empirical results that substitution between energy and capital is so difficult. From simple empirical analysis and limited information, we can carefully infer that, in the past in Korea, resource-specific innovation was performed widely. Finally, If we are to reduce the magnitude of "growth drag", we should decrease energy factor share. This can be accomplished by energy-augmenting technical progress in the case of elasticity of substitution less than 1 as in Korea.

  • 본고(本稿)의 목적은 개인소득세(個人所得稅)의 세수예측(稅收豫測)을 위한 모형개발(模型開發)에 있다. 일반적으로 개인소득세(個人所得稅)는 소비세 또는 물품세와는 달리 복잡한 세율구조(稅率構造)를 가지므로 통계자료가 가능한 소득세(所得稅) 종류별(種類別) 세수함수(稅收函數)(근로소득세, 이자 및 배당소득세, 종합소득세 등의 세수함수)에 소득(所得), 세율구조(稅率構造), 세율수준(稅率水準), 소득분배(所得分配), 세제(稅制)(면세점(免稅點), 공제제도(控除制度) 등)를 설명변수(說明變數)로 포함시켜 추정해 보았다. 그리고 종합소득세(綜合所得稅)는 신고(申告) 및 예납(豫納)된다는 데 착안하여 적절한 시차(時差)를 가지는 세수함수(稅收函數)로 설정하여 추정하였다. 상이한 접근방법으로 인하여 적접적인 비교는 어려우나 개인소득세수(個人所得稅收)의 소득탄력성(所得彈力性)이 기존의 추정치보다 작은 1.2~1.3으로 나타났다는 점이 본고(本稿)의 주요 결과 중 하나이다.

  • 우리나라 도시근로자의 가계소득과 외식비는 함께 증가하고 있으나, 시간이 경과와 더불어 가계소득에 비해 외식비 증가율이 크게 둔화되고 있을 뿐만 아니라 가계소득에서 외식비가 차지하는 비율도 감소하고 있다. 이러한 외식비 지출패턴의 변화는 소득계층에 따라서도 달라 외식비가 가계소득에서 차지하는 비중은 2005년 이후 감소하나 10분위의 외식비 비중이 가장 낮고 1분위의 비중이 가장 높다는 것과, 외식비 비중의 표준편차도 소득계층이 높을수록 작고 소득계층이 낮을수록 크다는 것을 보인다. 외식비모형에 회귀분석을 적용하여 소득계수가 모두 유의하며 소득분위가 높을수록 계수의 크기가 작다는 것과 외환위기는 1분위와 10분위를 제외하고 음의 부호로 유의하다는 것을 밝힌다. 1분위와 2분위에서는 계절에 따른 외식비 변화가 없으며, 소득계층이 높을수록 계절에 따른 외식이 분명해진다는 것도 제시한다. 시간이 흐름에 따른 외식비 패턴의 변화를 살펴보기 위하여 전향적 이동회귀를 실시하여 단순 추정에 따른 것보다 훨씬 빠른 속도로 외식비의 소득탄력성 감소가 이루어지고 있다는 것을 밝힌다. 외식비를 분산분해하여 소득수준이 낮은 계층에서는 소득이 중요한 변수이나 소득수준이 높은 계층에서는 소득 이외의 요인들이 외식비에 많은 영향을 미친다는 것을 보인다.

  • This study examines difference in expenditure patterns between working-wife families and nonworking-wife families. The data used in the study is 4,506 husband-wife families take National Survey of family Income and Expenditure in 1996. Of the sample, 42.3% are working-wife families. Consumption expenditure patterns are analyzed in two ways. One is the budget share of each given expenditure and the other is elasticity of those expenditure. The main results of this study are as follows: First, there are the differences between working-wife families and nonworking-wife families in the budget share of each given expenditure. In the budget shares of each given expenditure, nonworking-wife families share more than working wife families for food and medicine. And working-wife families allocated more on public transportation than their counterparts. Second, there are also differences between working-wife families and nonworking-wife families in income elasticities.

  • This paper makes some contributions on optimal environmental taxes in the generalized utilitarian social welfare function. It is not to suggest as to appropriate environmental tax rates but to contribute the direction of environmental tax policy. The tax rates depend on parameters of individual utility function (CES utility function) and social welfare function and income tax rate. The major findings are that, as the elasticity of substitution between labor and leisure and the concavity of social welfare function increase, both the optimal tax rates and the government demogrants rise. And, as the parameter of environmental pollution in the individual utility function increases, the optimal tax rates also increase. For the future study, this model involves the income tax and the capital tax as endogenous variables and the wage changes due to international trade.

  • In this paper we conduct comparative statics for optimal consumption and portfolio selection of an agent who has a utility function of Epstein and Zin type. We derive the Slutsky equations and decompose the total effects of changes into the substitution effects and the income effects. We identify the role of the elasticity of intertemporal substitution and the coefficient of relative risk aversion.

  • The purpose of this research was to examine the level and trends in household clothing expenditure in Korea. Raw data sets produced by the National Statistical Office from the Family Income and Expenditure Survey from 1991 to 2004 were used to support time-series and cross-sectional analyses. The clothing expenditures decreased severely and quickly during the economic crisis of late 1997 through 1998, then increased slowly after the economic crisis until 2003, only to slightly decrease again in 2004. The ratio of clothing expenditure to total household expenditure decreased from 8.03% in 1991 to 5.11% in 2004. This decrease in relative clothing expenditure was greater in the lower income group than in the middle and high income groups. Clothing expenditure patterns were unique and differed from other household expenditures. Although the economic crisis in the late 1990s affected Korean consumers' clothing expenditure, clothing expenditure patterns showed a more fundamental and structural change from 1991 to 2004, with the overall decrease in such expenditure resulting from the concurrent increase in educational and information-communication related expenditures. Clothing expenditure was shown to be luxurious through cross-sectional analysis, but necessary through time-series analysis.

  • This research examines the financial performance of Village and Urban Community Funds (VFs). The study also explores the beneficial effects of the biggest microfinance programs in the world in the lower and lowest income provinces; specifically, whether VFs change household economic status or not. The data is collected uniquely from the village funds in four provinces of each region in Thailand which considerably reflect the government achievement. Accordingly, several financial ratios have been applied to evaluate the financial efficiency of the village funds, and the ordered logit model has been used to estimate the impact on economic variables of the poor. The findings show that the village funds do not improve the savings, income, consumption, and asset of VFs' members, although such funds have a higher financial performance. Furthermore, the VFs are a good substitute compared to the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives (BAAC) credit because the cross-price elasticity of quantity of demand for such loans is positive. In particular, the loans from village funds are insignificantly correlated with the debt, income, asset, and economic status of VF members. This implies that Thai Village Funds do not alleviate definitely the serious problem about the financial situation in rural provinces. Thus, this microfinance does not change the economic well-being of the poor.
