本論文旨在瞭解現行桶裝瓦斯市場以桶計價,讓消費者承受瓶底殘氣無法使用但仍須付費的經濟損失,政府為保障桶裝瓦斯用戶消費的公平性,推動液化石油氣分銷商需在用戶端設置電腦瓦斯表,以氣積計價之方式營運,並以預約配送取代現行瓦斯用罄後再通知液化石油氣分銷商進行配送的消費習慣。本研究目的在於瞭解消費者對以桶計價所造成的經濟損失在乎程度、電腦瓦斯表的計價公平性、電腦瓦斯表的安全性對於:一、電腦瓦斯表每月最多可接受表租金;二、電腦瓦斯表認為公平的月租金;三、預約配送模式的接受程度等是否具有影響性,作為政府推動桶裝瓦斯加裝電腦瓦斯表的政策參考。 本研究是採問卷調查經迴歸分析後發現,桶裝瓦斯用戶在經濟損失在乎程度及計價公平性對於:一、電腦瓦斯表每月最多可接受表租金;二、電腦瓦斯表認為公平的月租金,都具備顯著性,這表示桶裝瓦斯用戶為了保障自身權益,願意支付電腦瓦斯表的月租金,對於使用電腦瓦斯表後需採預約配送的模式也有很高的接受度,將來政府在推廣桶裝瓦斯電腦瓦斯表時要讓消費者知道電腦瓦斯表可以避免目前以桶計價對消費者所造成的經濟損失與不公平的交易模式來確保消費者權益,以提高消費者對電腦瓦斯表的接受度。
The aim of this research is to uncover that comparing to electronic gas meter , cylinder gas has its own drawback of wasting , however, consumers must have to pay for it innocently. In order to protect the equity of cylinder gas consumers , the government gives an impetus to what that the liquefied petroleum gas (LGP) distributors have to operate with the way setting electronic gas meter on each customer and charging by the gas;what’s more , the government boosts changing consumer custom from advising the liquefied petroleum gas (LGP) distributors of the lack of current gas to order and delivery . The purpose of this research is to find out whether it matters that how much consumers care about the pecuniary loss produced by charging the cylinder , the valuation Equitably of charging by the gas , the safety of electronic gas meter compared to:1.the most amount of meter rental of electronic gas meter that can be accepted 2.the fair monthly rental of electronic gas meter 3.how much the order and delivery mode that can be accepted and so forth , as a reference resource when the government gives an impetus to the policy that installing added electronic gas meter on cylinder gas. In this research through questionnaires we use regression analysis as our methodology and we find out that the users’ care of economic loss of cylinder gas and Cylinder Gas Valuation Equitably are both significant with two things, the first thing is the largest receivable monthly rental of electronic gas meter and the second thing is the fair monthly rental arises from electronic gas form. This result indicates that users of cylinder gas are willing to pay monthly rent arise form electronic gas meter as to protect their rights. Besides, users can accept that after using electronic gas meter, they have to make an appointment. Furthermore, in the future, government should protect consumers’ equity and remind consumers that electronic gas meter can reduce the cost and unfairness resulted from the traditional gas. If government can spread the product of electronic gas meter successfully, then it will raise consumer acceptability of electronic gas meter.
