If it also has non-regulated operations , it may cause cross-subsidy for the improper allocation of common costs. What’s more, the separation of the Gas Equipment Installment Cost and the Gas Supplying Cost is not reasonable. In order to solve the above problems, the government enforces a new law by adopting “Separate Accounting”, which helps to properly separate costs into the gas equipment installment cost, the gas supplying cost, and the non-regulated operation cost. However, without an exact cost driver of the common costs, the new system allows to use a reasonable method to allocate costs to related operations. And the “single-factor formulas”, which is simple but easily manipulated, is now often used in practice. Therefore, we suggest to use the “multi-factor formulas” to allocate costs. In this research, statistic methods are used to find the proper cost drivers which lead to a multi-factor formula to allocate common costs. The results of the cost allocation in this and previous researches will be compared. Empirical results reveal that people works in the volume-related operations, the number of total users, and the number of new users are the best cost drivers. Compared with previous results, we have two major sets of findings. First, southern gas companies have more motivation to manipulate the cost allocation in order to lower fixed costs. Second, we anticipate that if equipment installment profits are higher, the gas companies are more likely to manipulate the cost allocation. Empirical results, however, show there is no relation between installment profits and the manipulation of the companies.第一章 緒論...............................................1 第一節 研究動機.......................................2 第二節 研究目標及內容.................................3 第二章 文獻探討...........................................6 第一節 成本分攤概述...................................6 第二節 一般成本分攤方法...............................7 第三節 製造費用成本動因分析..........................14 第四節 公用氣體燃料事業費率結構與試算之研究簡介......17 第三章 研究方法..........................................26 第一節 定義變數......................................26 第二節 研究模型與篩選過程............................28 第四章 實證研究結果......................................30 第一節 基本迴歸模型之多元迴歸及相關分析..............30 第二節 最適估計式....................................31 第五章 差異分析..........................................36 第一節 成本分攤結果比較..............................37 第二節 不同分攤方式對費率之影響......................43 第三節 成本分攤之進一步探討..........................44 第六章 結論與研究限制....................................57 參考文獻.................................................60en-US共同成本成本動因分離會計Cost DriverCommon CostSeparate Accounting公用天然氣事業共同成本之成本動因探討The Cost-Driver Analysis of Common Costs for Public Utilities Industryother
