چکیده
Objectives: This study aims to rigorously investigate the relationship between financial constraints faced by companies and the phenomenon of cost stickiness. Understanding this relationship is crucial for effective financial management and strategic decision-making. Design/methodology/approach: To achieve the research objectives, a comprehensive dataset comprising 132 firms listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange was meticulously selected using a systematic exclusion model. The analysis spans an 8-year period from 2015 to 2022. A linear multivariate regression model was employed to robustly test the research hypotheses. Findings: The empirical results reveal a direct and statistically significant relationship between financial constraints and cost stickiness. This finding indicates that companies experiencing financial limitations tend to exhibit greater cost stickiness, which can adversely affect their operational efficiency. Innovation: This research contributes valuable insights by demonstrating that effective management of financial crises can significantly mitigate cost stickiness. By highlighting this relationship, the study underscores the importance of proactive financial strategies in enhancing corporate resilience and performance.تبلیغات
