dc.description.abstract | Growth of the steel industry has been playing a very important role in the country′s economic development. Because the steel industry has included a wide range of industrial category, the price of the steel products has a close relationship for the manufacturing costs of the downstream steal. The purpose of this study was to investigate the iron and steel industry development in Taiwan, the characteristics of the steel market and the types of steel in Taiwan.We take the China Steel Corporation as an example, which is the leader of Taiwan’s iron and steel industry. We aimed at exploring the prices of the production of cold-rolled plate. By discussing cold-rolled steel, raw materials, semi-finished products (including: iron ore, scrap metal steel and flat slab) respectively, we aimed at theory and analysis on the homogeneity of the import and export of products factors which related to the quantity and price.By using empirical methods to verify the interaction between the price of the cold rolled steel and its impact variables, we also take the mass production of iron and steel products of the mainland into account. The demand in the Chinese domestic market continued to be sluggish, and the supply exceeds demand. In order to level up the steel inventories, China implemented steel products export tax rebate policy, attempted to use to increase the proportion of domestic steel exports to solve the problem of overcapacity.With the regression analysis, the price of cold rolled steel has to explore the relevant variables, the empirical results show that the price of the scrap in the domestic market, import the price of the flat and the embryos in Taiwan that will affect other imported the price of the cold rolled steel. It is proved when changes steelmaking raw material prices or quantities, the price of cold rolled steel prices have also changed. Hence, the demand of the raw materials increases will cause the fluctuations of the cold rolled steel. | en_US |
