本研究主要目的為探討產業過去之購併活動,對公司的研發投入的影響。產業的購併活動活躍與否,可視為此產業中資產的流動性衡量,根據Phillips and Zhdanov (2012)所使用之方式,利用產業過去的購併交易所計算出變數,可用以解釋公司的研發投入。本文有別於傳統之樣本分類法,而是採用不同的變數來衡量產業分類,藉以分析同業購併、異業購併以及產業整體購併對公司研發投入的影響。從實證結果發現,當過去的同業內購併活動越盛行時,公司的研發投入越高。而公司的研發投入,又與公司之規模大小有關,隨著公司規模大小不同,購併活動對研發投入的影響程度也隨之改變,隨著公司規模越大,受到的影響則越小,具有規模效應。本研究同時考量產業需求變動以及競爭程度對公司研發投入的影響,實證發現公司研發投入與產業需求及競爭程度為正向關係,且同樣具有規模效應。 / The objective of this study is to analyze how an active acquisition market affects Taiwan firms’ incentives to conduct R&D. It follows Phillips and Zhdanov(2012)that using the value of past M&A activity in the firm’s industry to captures the historical liquidity of an industry’s assets. Different from other studies which usually split sample into different groups to examine inside- and outside-industry, this study use three variables to measure how M&A activity in inside-, outside- and whole-industry affect firms on conducting R&D in different ways. According to the empirical results of the regression analyses, we find that firms’ incentives to conduct R&D increase with inside industry M&A activity and the effect is stronger for small firms than large firms. We also find that firms’ R&D are positively correlated with industry demand and competition, and both of these effects are also stronger for small firms than for large firms.
