About this book
The thesis of Kristina Reimer provides a comprehensive analysis of asymmetric cost behavior (also known as cost stickiness) by discussing its origin and development in the theoretical and empirical research from the 1920s of the past century up until today. Further, using an empirical approach, she investigates the implications of asymmetric cost behavior for credit and financial risk of a firm. In addition, she provides an introduction into credit risk fundamentals by focusing on credit default swaps. Thereby she analyses the development of credit default swap market as well as the components of credit spreads. Finally, she provides several suggestions for future research.
About the Series
The series serves as a panel for outstanding research in the field of accounting. The underlying concept of accounting goes beyond the scope of traditional corporate accounting including, for instance, aspects of behavior control. The series focuses on quantitative analyses of current topics in management and financial accounting and considers both analytical and empirical research designs.
