Costs: What will the market pay? External cost relative to internal cost –whether it costs less to obtain assurance internally vs. having ex-post assurance of XBRL filing as the external auditor may be tasked with doing External cost relative to preparation cost –extrapolating what happens if the cost of preparing XBRL filings keeps falling while the cost of assuring those statements keeps rising [Assumption: voluntary choices] 8
