ABSTRACT

This study aims to estimate the reasonable supply of funeral and cemetery facilities for the efficient formation of funeral policy, based on the progress of the cremation ratio. Adequate supply size is predicted by the demand trends of cremation-related facilities, especially charnel houses and natural burial plots, with a focus on Ulsan metropolitan city. In order to estimate the reasonable supply of charnel houses and natural burial plots, the number of cremations is calculated as a proportion of the mortality rate through analysis of the cremation ratio change, based on the questionnaire method and exponential smoothing. This study will contribute to estimating the supply sizes of cremation-related facilities in other local governments and further determining their rental fees.
