Tiivistelmä: | The paper analyzes the deadweight loss of delegated auditing in a three-tier hierarchy. In a costly-state verification model, this cost depends on the endogenous information structure, the auditor's degree of risk-aversion and the size of the punishment. There is the optimal contractual outcome of this delegation model identified with the solution obtained in a standard three-tier hierarchical model of collusive auditor. Then, it is derived from this identification the set of parameters of the physical environment which may affect the efficiency of side-contracting within the firm. |
