In ths study, nterty transport nludes three transport odes suh as avaton, Hgh-speed ral and hghway. In ths setor, any ountres have ntrodued deregulaton poles to prove eono effeny. Espeally n avaton arket, deregulaton aelerates opetton between arlnes, and level of serve has been proved. Furtherore, provng the serve level nreases avaton deand beause of the nrease of flght frequeny. However, n rural areas, deregulaton has aelerated a dereasng deand and frequeny beause low avaton deand eans low profts for arlne. These stuatons ause a vous rle, and studes are addressng the hallenge of dentfyng ethods to sulate these stuatons (Fg-2). For the future, easures to redue the envronental pat ust be ntrodued to further redue CO 2 -essons, and envronental ta s beng onsdered as one suh easure. However, envronental ta, whh s a ost-up fator for arlne operators, ay ause operators to nrease passenger fares to antan ther proftablty. Introdung envronental taes n the nreasngly tough opettve arket n the near future wll derease frequeny even ore rapdly. To analyze the pat of the ntroduton of envronental ta under deregulaton, we ust develop a new odel to epress the ehans of arlnes hangng behavor n response to taaton and passengers behavor n response to fares and frequenes. Furtherore, nteraton between arlnes and passengers are portant n eplanng the pat of taaton. As an addtonal onsderaton, tehnologal proveents suh as lower fuel-onsupton tehnologes have been developed for nterty transportaton. In the avaton arket, proved fuel onsupton has beoe nreasngly portant n redung CO 2 -essons. However, no quanttatve analyss has yet studed both the pats of envronental ta as a ost-up fator and tehnologal proveents as ost-ut fators. The present study apples the onopolst opetton theory, orgnatng n the feld of eonos, to epress the above-desrbed ehans. Ths study develops a new analyt odel based on the onopolst opetton theory to desrbe the vous rle trggered by ntrodung taaton nto the avaton arket and to quanttatvely evaluate the pat of both envronental ta and tehnologal proveent. th WCTR, July 5-8, 20 Ro de Janero, Brazl 2

The new theory the ontestable-arket theory onsderng free-entry and et ehanss, has been used as a easureent for provng the arket ondton. Ths theory onveys that deregulaton should be aelerated when all ts seven hypotheses are satsfed. After arduous dsussons n the USA, deregulaton poles based on ths theory were pleented, but they aused duopolst and olgopolst ondtons beause the real arket ould not satsfy all seven hypotheses sultaneously. In reent studes, the Cournot and Staklelberg opetton odel has been proved. 2.2 Changes n the evaluaton syste fro the perspetve of envronental-effeny evaluaton In the EU, any envronental poles have been pleented. Karen et al. (2007) sulated the pat of envronental taaton on avaton fuel and doest and nternatonal traff deands. Anger (200) also sulated the pat of EU-ETS on the avaton arket usng the dyna energy-envronent-eonoy odel. However, ssues est whle onsderng envronental taaton s pat on the tough opetton arket beause these odels retan the supply-sde behavor after taaton. Moreover, t s portant to prove the supply-sde odel beause arket ondtons wll soon beoe eeedngly opettve. 2. Dsusson ponts of odellng for future poly evaluaton The urrent trend of developng sulaton odels has foused on eah aspet suh as nterty transportaton and eono effeny or nterty transportaton and envronental effeny. In ondtons where the arket beoes ore opettve, the odelng approah should nlude both eono and envronental effenes. In partular, ths study assues the followng two ondtons: ) arket ondton: ore opettve and 2) envronental poles ondton: ntrodung envronental ta. Ths study develops a new sulaton odel based on the onopolst opetton theory, as studed n the feld of eonos, to evaluate both these pats. Ths odel also sulates the pat of tehnologal proveent to evaluate the balane between nreasng ta rates and tehnologal proveent rates. Ths study s odelng proveents enable us to deterne the optal balane between eono and envronental effenes n the avaton arket.. THEORY OF MONOPOLISTIC COMPETITION.

6 Ipat analyss of envronental ta and tehnologal proveent on nterty transportaton n Japan Based on the onopolst opetton theory Aoto MIMURO, Takaak OKUDA The hstory of the onopolst opetton theory has aelerated after Krugan (977) publshed Inreasng Returns, Monopolst Copetton, and Internatonal Trade n the feld of eonos, espeally n trade theory. Untl the 970s, analyt odel has establshed assuptons suh as perfet arket opetton and onstant returns to sale, but Krugan found that these assuptons lead to prese sulaton results beause they neglet the dfferenes between opanes. To prove odel strutures, Krugan and Helpan ntrodue two assuptons, perfet-opettve arket and eonoes of sale, n the so-alled new trade theory. Fg-4 shows dfferenes aong theores, lassfed nto four Perfet opetton ategores: ) Nuber of opanes, 2) Free-entry and -et, ) Eonoes of sale (nternal), and 4) Produt dfferentaton. Eah assupton s eplaned as follows: Assupton ) Nuber of opanes One of the benefts of assung that there are any opanes s the splfaton of the odel struture beause t breaks the strateg nterdependene assupton, whh s set n the theory of olgopolst and duopolst opetton. Ths assupton leads to a new assupton that one opany produes only one produt. Assupton 2) Free-entry and free-et Free-entry and free-et eans that all opanes are n the tough opettve arket, and ajorty of the opanes are always atteptng a new entry to aqure proft. Copanes are requred to ontnually reate dfferentaton produton to avod etng the arket, whle onsderng pres. Ths assupton enables us to epress the phenoenon that opetton ontnues untl the eess profts reah zero n the long ter. Assupton ) Eonoes of sale (nternal) Ths assupton requres usng a funton that onsders the fed osts at the ndvdual opany level. Under the equlbru ondton n the long ter, pre and argnal ost wll be equally affeted by Assupton 2. Assupton 4) Produt dfferentaton Eah opany wll fae a downward-slopng deand urve that s separate and dstnt fro the behavor of others. Copanes wll dfferentate to reap the benefts, resultng n a hgher noe and prng as hgh as possble. However, ths proess wll result n a downward-slopng deand urve as the d-sze ar arket as a whole lost ts deand and was not aepted by the onsuer, thereby affetng etreely hgh pred opanes.

However, n real avaton arket, there are low frequent network between loals. Ths stuaton s not ft for the assupton set by the theory. To overoe ths dfferene, ths study proves the odel struture developed by Dt Stgltz (977) to sulate the ase of lower-frequeny n avaton arket.

Data set Ths study uses any data fro 2005 n Japan. Data of traff volue n 2005 orgnates fro the Inter-Regonal travel survey, organzed by Japan s Mnstry of Land, Infrastruture and Transport (MLIT). Data on transportaton networks and fares for ral and ar are obtaned fro the Natonal Integrated Transport Analyss Syste and MLIT, but we use only regular eonoy lass fares and apply only one fare to eah OD par. Data on the frequeny of avaton and arraft sze orgnates fro the JTB tetable. Rates of fuel and other osts aganst total varable osts are obtaned fro data n seurtes reports publshed by All Nppon ways and Japan lne n 2005, aordng to whh we set the fuel rate as 25%. CO 2 -esson per unt s (g-co 2 /apta/k) for avaton and (g-co 2 /apta/k) for ralway. 5.2 Paraeter estaton The equatons for estatng the paraeter are as follows. ln ln ln (5-a) ral ar ral ar ral ar ln ln 2 ln (5-b) The estatng paraeter s equal to the estate, σ and σ 2, as eplaned n Seton 4... Equaton (5-a) alulates the alternatve elastty varable between traff and other onsuer produts. Equaton (5-b) alulates the alternatve elastty varable between ralways and arlnes. The regresson analyss enables us use these equatons to evaluate the alternatve elastty varable fro the estng data. The paraeter estaton ethod follows the study of Okuda (2008), whh an be referened for ore nforaton on alulatng α and σ. The nuber of the total saples s 2,2. Ths saple aggregates data of OD trps between 50 regons, but t eludes ertan data suh as transportaton deands for nner-ty areas and between eah prefeture n a etropoltan. Frst, the result of an alternatve elastty varable between traff and other onsued produts s σ = The R-squared s 0.7, and the ultple orrelaton oeffents are Seond, the result of an alternatve elastty varable between ralways and arlnes s σ 2 = The R-squared s 0.70, and the ultple orrelaton oeffents are Ths fndng suggests that utual arlne and ralway substtuton ours easly for the sae transportaton route. The last paraeter, σ, s only set by senaro beause of no data between eah opany. Ths study sets σ equal to 0, whh s greater than σ 2 to satsfy the assupton of theory that σ has to be greater than σ 2. th WCTR, July 5-8, 20 Ro de Janero, Brazl 4

Yaagata has the Yaagata Shnkansen lne (Hgh-Speed Ral), akng t easy for resdents to hange the transportaton ode fro avaton to ralway. Fg-8 shows the nreasng rates of ralway deand fro the sae regon. However, all prefetures ust aept the stuaton that they annot onvert the entre derease n avaton deand to nreased ralway deand beause ralway fares also nrease wth taaton. Thus, fators ausng a derease n the total traff deand wth the ntroduton of envronental ta have been found to be dfferent n that they an easly onvert to another transportaton ode. Low apablty for a shft fro avaton to ralway auses a greater reduton of total traff. If paraeter σ = 7, the pat by taaton s nreased to 0% opared wth the urrent ondton that the paraeter σ = 0.
