Although the regulated firms' increased disclosure directly reduces all firms' cost of capital, it crowds out the unregulated firms' voluntary disclosure and thus increases all firms’ cost of capital indirectly. Under certain circumstances, the negative indirect effect can outweigh the direct benefit. These results are consistent with the scant evidence on the cost-of-capital effect of mandatory disclosure. The model highlights the importance of the market-wide effects of disclosure regulation and facilitates quantitative cost-benefit analyses for specific regulatory proposals.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48438,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Accounting & Economics","volume":"77 1","pages":"Article 101605"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136273490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additional findings suggest that broad-based and targeted changes in tax scrutiny can differentially affect crypto traders’ preference for U.S.-based exchanges.

Next, we show that higher internal information system quality, measured through responses to the World Management Survey, mitigates the positive relation between inflation shocks and firm-level investment. This result suggests that internal information quality serves as a channel through which aggregate-level nominal variables affect firm-level real variables.
