장흥댐의 레크리에이션 편익 추정

cThis paper attempts to quantify the economic value of the recreational benefits from the Jangheung dam. To this end, the contingent valuation (CV) survey was administrated to a sample of randomly selected 1,000 households from the national population. We used single-bounded model as a method of eliciting the willingness to pay (WTP) and applied a spike model to deal with zero WTP responses (72.5%) from the CV survey. The respondents were asked to state whether to pay a given amount through additional higher income tax once a year for next ten years. The results show that the annual recreational benefits of the Jangheung dam are estimated to be 1,348 won per household, which is statistically significant at the 1% level. Expanding the value to the national population gives us 24.9 billion won per year.
