This book was released on 2016 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do dividend policy decisions affect a firm's stock price, is a widely researched topic in the field of investments and finance but still it remains a mystery that whether dividend policy affects the stock prices or not. There are those who suggest that dividend policy is irrelevant because they argue a firm's value should be determine by the basic earning power and business risk of the firm, in which case value depends only on the income (cash) produced, not on how the income is split between dividends and retained earnings and opponents of this statement called dividend is irrelevance, that investors care only about the total returns they receive, not whether they receive those returns in the form of dividends, capital gains or both.The results of researches conducted in various stock markets are different. There are many internal and external factors, which simultaneously affect stock prices and it is almost impossible to segregate the effect of each so the variations remain. This paper empirically estimates excess stock market returns for all the thirty banks listed in Dhaka Stock Exchange for the period of 2007 to 2011. Attempts are made to examine, what kind of relationship exists between dividend policy and stock market returns of private commercial banks in Bangladesh, and to what degree the returns on stocks can be explained by their respective dividend policy for the same period of time. Various theories related to dividend policy are tested in various parts of the world with different results and findings. Various other articles are reviewed, written in Bangladesh and abroad to see the significance of dividend policy on the stock prices and to compare the results of this research with those conducted earlier. Sample size is large i.e. all the listed commercial banks of Dhaka Stock Exchange so the results are reliable and valid. Panel data approach is used to explain the relationship between dividends and stock prices after controlling the variables like Earnings per Share, Return on Equity, Retention Ratio have positive relation with Stock Prices and significantly explain the variations in the market prices of shares, while the Dividend Yield and Profit after Tax has negative, insignificant relation with stock prices. Overall results of this study indicate that Dividend Policy has significant positive effect on Stock Prices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 100%, , language: English, abstract: This paper is an introduction to the effects that dividend payments have on the stock price and a discussion of various opinions about payment effects. One fundamental framework in this field of study has been the “dividend irrelevance theorem” by Modigliani and Miller (1961) that was published in the journal of business as a part of their analysis of “Dividend Policy, Growth, and the Valuation of Shares”. With a set of given assumptions they arrive at the conclusion that the dividend policy is irrelevant. As the second source I consult an article by the American stock exchange NASDAQ (2012) about the so-called “dividend capture strategy”, which I discuss skeptically. The third article I refer to interestingly holds the opposite of the NASDAQ article.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact resulted from the dividend policy of a firm, on the volatility of the market value of stocks, is the major concern of this study, which is an issue bearing an utmost significance, when considering the objectives of a corporate. The focus of an entity should be aligned, on the maximization of stock holders' wealth and this necessitates the selection of an optimum dividend policy. The present study, thus, attempts to shed a light on the above fact, within the Sri Lankan context. Data was collected from a sample of companies listed under the manufacturing sector of the Colombo Stock Exchange from year 2006 to 2014. The study occupied panel data regression model for analysis. The outcome revealed that, the dividend yield of the current year has a negative impact on the share price volatility, while the dividend payout ratio of both the current and previous years has a positive impact. In addition, the impact of dividend yield is negative on the market value of the firm, where the dividend payout ratio of the current year is also depicts the same impact. The findings of the study reassure the findings of the previous researchers within the Sri Lankan context, in case of the market value of the firm, while being contrary in case of the share price volatility. Accordingly, the firms' ability of utilizing the dividend policy as a mechanism of controlling the volatility of share prices is established. However, it will not be effective in altering the market value of the firm.

This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Short and Long Run Effects of Debt-Equity Ratios and Dividend Payout Ratios on Corporation Stock Prices The paper reports the results of an investigation which sought to determine the effects of debt and dividend policies on corporate stock prices. More specifically, the research attempted to divide the total of the effects of debt and dividends into a part over which the managers of a firm can exercise direct control and those over which they have less control. That is, it was thought that stock price responses to debt and dividends were composed of two types of influences: a. the influence of debt and dividend policies, which is said to be described by the average of the variables, and b. the influence of short run variation in debt and dividends around these desired or policy levels. It is hypothesized that in any specific year, the stock price of, say. Standard Oil of New Jersey differs from that of Texaco not only because Standard pursues different financial policies, but because, in that year. Standard and/or Texaco may have debt ratios or dividend payout ratios which differ from their target or average ratios due to the peculiarities of that year. Stated in even another way, variations in stock prices are thought to arise from variations in established financial policies between companies, and from within company year-to-year aberrations around these financial policies. While there is an interest on the part of managers in knowing how short run fluctuations from established policies will affect their stock price, the more important managerial concern would seem to be that of determining the long run effects of specific policy choices. Thus, the real purpose of the research is to filter out the short run effects and focus on the long run effects of debt and dividend policies on stock prices.
