Abstract

The data of fair value hierarchy is expected to contain different degree of measurement error, information asymmetry, and information risk by the level of hierarchy. Thus, this study examines how hierarchy of fair value discriminately influences on companies' cost of capital. Through regression analysis of corporations listed from 2011 to 2014, it turns out that the regression coefficient of level 1 and 2 of fair value variable vary their rank by cost of capital types, while level 3 contains the highest regression coefficient for every cost of capital variable. In addition, further study of how the relevance between cost of capital and the fair value hierarchy gets affected by market risk management level and audit quality finds no consistent results. However, by analyzing the effect of coincident interaction through the convergence of market risk management and audit quality, when audit quality and market risk management level are high, the effect of relieving cost of capital of Level 3 gets the highest. In conclusion, fair value hierarchy data seems to affect discriminately on cost of capital by involved information risk, and the information risk could decrease by the level of market risk management and audit quality.

공정가치 서열체계 정보는 각 수준에 따라 측정오류의 발생가능성과 정보비대칭 정도, 그리고 내포된 정보 위험이 다를 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수준별 공정가치 서열체계 정보가 기업의 자본비용에 어떤 차별적인 영향을 미치는지 살펴본다. 2011년부터 2014년까지 한국주식시장에 상장된 기업들을 대상으로 실증 분석한 결과, 수준 1과 수준 2의 공정가치 변수의 회귀계수 값은 자본비용 유형에 따라 크기의 순위가 바뀌었지만, 수준 3의 회귀계수는 모든 자본비용 변수에 대하여 가장 큰 회귀계수 값을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 기업의 시장위험 관리 수준과 감사품질에 따라 공정가치 서열체계에 따른 자본비용의 관련성이 어떻게 달라지는 가를 추가적으로 분석하였으나 일관성 있는 결과를 얻을 수 없었다. 그러나 시장위험관리와 감사품질 변수를 융합하여, 동시적인 상호작용 효과를 분석한 결과, 시장위험관리 수준이 높고 감사품질이 높은 경우 수준 3의 자본비용을 증가시키는 효과가 크게 완화되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 공정가치 서열체계 정보는 내포된 정보위험에 따라 자본비용에 미치는 영향이 달라지며, 경영자의 시장위험관리 수준이나 감사품질에 따라 정보위험은 감소될 수 있음을 보여주었다.
