The effect is also more pronounced during industry downturns when borrowers have fewer alternative sources of finance. Results are consistent when I use alternative measures of cost stickiness and alternative research designs.

We also find that nonpecuniary status concerns drive the effect. Results of two boundary conditions reveal that, as the clarity of information regarding who is the best candidate for the job decreases (due to decision-makers having weaker or mixed signals about job candidates), the quality of selected candidates becomes no worse under a decentralized than under a centralized selection process.

However, a concurrent trend toward remote work in organizations could moderate the effect of this move toward organizational openness by reducing organizational identification.

Using an experiment, we find that weak versus strong organizational identification leads to greater slack creation in an open reporting environment, but this effect attenuates in a closed reporting environment. By speaking to the joint effect of internal reporting environment openness and organizational identification, this study contributes to our understanding of the theoretical drivers of misreporting and how they interact with concurrent trends in practice.\u0000 Data Availability: The data used in this paper are available upon request.","PeriodicalId":46474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Accounting Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139394615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monopsony characterizes a market with a single buyer and many suppliers. Accordingly, monopsony power is a potentially critical determinant of cost structure because it affects managers’ resource procurement decisions. Results indicate that hospitals with monopsony power adopt more elastic cost structures, and monopsony power magnifies the positive relationship between demand uncertainty and cost elasticity identified in prior research. These findings suggest monopsony power lowers the costs of procuring resources on flexible, short-term, and variable bases as opposed to making long-term commitments. Therefore, due to the high fixed-cost nature of the industry, hospitals with monopsony power choose more variable cost structures and make larger cost structure adjustments in response to demand uncertainty. Although we conduct this research using hospitals, our theory and results have implications for other industries.\u0000 Data Availability: Data are publicly available from the sources cited in this study.\u0000 JEL Classifications: D22; D23; I11; M20; M40.","PeriodicalId":46474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Accounting Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139636810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
