This study aimed to investigate the role of managers' information interpretation on cost behavior. The locative domain of this research is the companies listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange during 2014-2020 and through systematic elimination method, 112 companies have been selected as statistical sample. Managers' information interpretation is considered as an independent variable and cost behavior is considered a dependent variable. The current research is applied research, and if the classification of types of re-searches be considered based on the nature and method, the method of the present study is essentially descriptive in terms of the nature, and in terms of the method is considered in correlation researches category. In this study, library method was used to collect data. In the research data section, data was collected through collecting data of sample companies by referring to financial statements, explanatory notes and stock exchange magazine. In order to describe and summarize the data collected, the descriptive and inferential statistics are used. In order to analyze the data, variance heterogeneity pre-test, F Leimer test, Hausman test and Jarque-Bera test and then multivariate regression test were used to confirm and reject the research hypotheses (EVIEWS software). The results showed that the extent of effectiveness of managers’ information interpretation factors, including changes in managers' consensus on profit, changes in public profit information, changes in private profit information, and changes in bias in profit forecasting on cost behavior in potentially competitive conditions are different from de facto competition. The results obtained in this research are consistent with the documents mentioned in the research theoretical framework and financial literature.
