| Abstract | This paper develops a Hedonic price model to measure the marginal values of asset attributes embodied in the ship price. In order to reflect the heterogeneity of the ship attributes, a Hedonic regression model is applied to study the effects of two key attributes, age and tonnage, on determining the price of a secondhand containership. In turn, two indices related to the tonnage and age cost are constructed accordingly. By observing the patterns of variations of the two indices over the past decade, some implications about the impacts of market condition and the advances in technology of shipbuilding on the secondhand ship prices are discovered. The unexpected downward trend of tonnage cost index from 2003 suggests that the benefit of technical progress in shipbuilding has greatly offset the rising cost burden caused by the higher steel price. Since 2003, on the other hand, the steadily decreasing pattern of age cost index indicates that the allowance for ship age on purchasing a secondhand containership has been increased while the demand of transportation in the shipping market is strong. Implicitly, the age cost index for the secondhand containership could be utilized as an indicator for judging the demand situation in the international marine market. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
