서울시의 지역물류비 산정 및 추이분석

Abstract

Calculating logistics cost (LC) is important because regional logistics cost (RLC) is a useful index of establishing regional economy and logistics plan, and a measure of regional competitiveness. However, Seoul does not calculate RLC at this time. In this study, thus, RLC of Seoul is calculated by applying the method of calculating national logistics cost. Total logistics cost is classified into transport cost, stock inventory cost, packing charge, stevedoring cost, logistics information cost, and general management cost. The period of estimation is limited to 1990-2001, considered the estimated year of national logistics cost. As a result, RLC of Seoul is 13,276 billion Won without international freight rates, and shows 8.2% increase yearly. That is to say, the size of RLC of Seoul is 19.7% of national logistics cost (28.3% in 1990), and 11.6% of GRDP (13.4% in 1990). Transport cost takes the largest portion of RLC, on the other hand, the packing charge is the least. Non-commercial truck transport cost among transport cost is estimated as 57.6%, which is the largest rate. Stock inventory cost occupies 11.0% of total RLC, and the yearly increase rate of stevedoring cost is 4.1%, following transport cost. The company‘s own warehouse storing cost is the largest portion of stock inventory cost, 44.5% in 2001. There are several limitations of this study; that is, lack of appropriateness of some data sources, insufficiency of representation, and so on, while the method of calculating national logistics cost is applied. Nonetheless, this study would be expected to be used as a source of establishing policies of city logistics since there is no recent RLC of Seoul. In the future, developing and applying new calculating methods will be necessary, and data collecting system should be enforced in order to calculate RLC.
