| Abstract: | Based on a sample of European real estate companies, including from Finland (etc.), all first-time adopters of the IFRS and using a multinomial logistic model. The author suggests viewpoints and conclusions that information asymmetry, contractual efficiency and managerial opportunism could account for the fair value choice and size as a proxy of political costs reduces the likelihood of using fair value while market-to-book ratio is negatively associated with the fair value choice and on another typical proxy of contracting costs, seems not to influence the choice. |
