본 연구는 배당의 형태에 따라 개인투자자들이 배당세를 인식하여 투자가치를 평가하는가를 검증하는 것이 목적이다. 현금배당의 경우에는 기업의 현금유출이 발생하지만 주식배당의 경우에는 기업의 순장부가치에 변동을 초래하지 않는다. 개인투자자들이 배당에 대해 배당세를 인식하고 투자가치를 평가한다면 순장부가치에서 납입자본과 이익잉여금의 가치를 다르게 인식하게 된다. 검증결과 현금배당의 경우에는 배당세를 인식하여 순장부가치를 평가하지만 주식배당의 경우에는 배당세를 인식하는 뚜렷한 증거를 발견할 수 없었다. 또한 순이익에 대해서는 배당의 형태에 관계없이 배당세를 인식하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과로 볼 때 공평한 과세를 달성하기 위해서는 배당에 대한 과세뿐만 아니라 자본이득세를 부과함으로써 소득의 형태에 관계없이 동일한 기준으로 과세하는 것이 바람직 할 것으로 보인다.

This study seeks to ascertain whether publicly listed Jordanian corporations (listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE)) exhibit accounting conservatism and whether such companies distribute dividends to stockholders. Furthermore, this study delves into the implications of accounting conservatism on dividend policy in the context of the quality of financial statements of publicly listed Jordanian companies listed on the ASE. To accomplish the aims of this study, the Quality of financial reporting is treated as a moderator for the relationship between accounting conservatism and dividend distribution. Hence, a panel data approach was utilized, which encompasses cross-sectional data for 95 industrial and service establishments for the period (2013-2017). The study found that accounting conservatism has a negative impact on dividends and that there is no difference in the impact of accounting conservatism on dividends based on the quality of financial reports. The study concluded with a number of recommendations, the most salient of which is the need for companies to enhance their concentration on accounting conservatism and adopt a suitable policy for dividends. Thus, this research provides an insights into the financial practices of Jordanian publicly listed corporations and highlights the need for a more informed decision-making process concerning dividends and accounting practices.

Purpose - This paper empirically investigates what factors contribute to management decisions by corporate governance in the Korean stock market. In the paper, dividends and investments were imployed as management decisions and major stockholders' shares and foreign investors' shares were used as corporate governance. Research design, data, and Methodolog - Samples are constructed by manufacturing firms listed on the stock market of Korea as well as those who settle accounts in December from 2001 to 2018. Financial institutions are excluded from the sample as their accounting procedures, governance and regulations differ. This study adopted the panel regression model to assess the sample construction including yearly and cross-sectional data. Results - This results support the literatures that major shareholders showed insignificance to dividends, positive significance to investment in financially unconstrained firms and negative significance to investment in financially constrained firms. Whereas foreign investors favor firms to increase dividends but they decrease investments only in financially constrained firms. Conclusion - This paper documented evidence that financial constrained firms use dividends for their investment and foreign investors decrease investments under financial constraints. But for dividends decisions, foreign investors give significant positive impacts irrespective of financial constraints.

This study aims to determine the factors that affect dividends initiation by initial public offering firms in Malaysia. The ownership structure is examined from a corporate governance theoretical perspective in order to evaluate the impacts of managerial, institutional, and family ownership on the dividend's initiation decision of IPO firms. This study employs a quantitative pooled cross-section of 372 Malaysian IPO companies active during the period of 2002-2013. The number of firms that went public each year varies, thus the pooled cross-section data takes place in this case rather than the panel data. The logistic model was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. The results revealed that the presence of institutional investors in the ownership structure make it more likely for IPO firms to initiate dividends. On the contrary, the presence of a family ownership structure in IPO companies as the controlling shareholder makes these companies less probable to initiate dividends. Managerial ownership was found to have no effect on the decision of initiating dividends by IPO firms. The findings of this study suggest that the existence of institutional and family ownerships are agency cost mitigators, as these ownership types could prompt IPOs firms to initiate dividends to overcome the agency conflicts.

The paper investigates the mechanism through which corporate credit ratings affect dividend payments by decomposing the mean difference of dividends into a part that is explained by the determinants of dividends and a residual part that is contributed by the pure credit group effect, in the framework of the traditional dividend model of Fama and French (2001). Historically, better credit rated firms have shown consistently higher propensity to pay dividends especially during the economic crisis period. According to the counter-factual decomposition technique of Jann (2008), better rated firms are more responsive to the firm characteristics that have positive impact on dividends and poor rated firms are more responsive to the negative dividend predictors. As a result, good (bad) credit ratings make corporate managers become more bold (timid) in their dividend payments and they tend to pay more (less) dividends than what their firm characteristics prescribe. The degree of information asymmetry increases for the poor group firms during crisis periods and they attempt to reserve more cash in preparation for future investments. The decomposition results suggest that the credit group effect can potentially exceed the effect of firm characteristics because firms of different credit ratings can respond to the very same firm characteristics in a different manner.

Dividend is one of essential factors determining the value of a firm. According to the valuation theory in finance, discounted cash flow (DCF) is the most popular and widely used method for the valuation of any asset. Since dividends play a key role in the pricing of a firm value by DCF, it is natural that the accurate prediction of future dividends should be most important work in the valuation. Although the dividend forecasting is of importance in the real world for the purpose of investment and financing decision, it is not easy for us to find good theoretical models which can predict future dividends accurately except Marsh and Merton (1987) model. Thus, if we can develop a better method than Marsh and Merton in the prediction of future dividends, it can contribute significantly to the enhancement of a firm value. Therefore, the most important goal of this study is to develop a better method than Marsh and Merton model by applying artificial intelligence techniques.

선행연구에서 기업의 어느 특정한 재무의사결정의 영향을 분석할 경우, 다른 재무정책이 일정하다고 가정한 후 그 특정한 재무정책의 영향을 분석하는 것이 일반적이다. 그러나 Jensen, Solberg and Zorn(1992)은 투자, 배당, 자본구조, 내부자지분은 상호간에 직. 간접적으로 영향을 받는다는 연구결과를 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 자본구조, 투자, 배당과 내부자지분사이의 상호관계를 모형화한 통합적인 분석방법을 통하여 각 재무정책 상호간의 관계를 분석하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 분석모형에 전기의 시차항을 포함하여 재무정책과 내부자지분에 상호관계를 파악하였다. 거래소 상장기업 361개 기업을 대상으로 자본구조, 투자, 배당, 내부자지분분석모형을 3SLS 방법에 의한 실증분석을 통해 밝혀진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 자본구조는 투자와 상호관계를 보이는 한편, 투자는 배당과 상호관계를 보인다. 그리고 배당은 내부자지분과 상호관계를 보이면서 자본구조에 영향을 미치고 있다. 내부자지분과 자본구조 사이에 직접적인 상호관계가 존재한다는 증거는 찾을 수 없었다. 그러나 내부자지분과 자본구조 사이에 간접적인 영향으로 재무정책과 내부자지분은 서로 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있다.

The article examines the ownership structure and dividend payout behavior of India-listed firms using a panel regression approach. It focuses on family ownership and examines why dividend payouts of family firms differ from non-family firms. The study finds that family firms dominate and have concentrated ownership using data from the NSE-listed regular dividend-paying firms. Although family ownership concentration is high among Indian firms, these firms are not concerned about distributing cash as dividends. Instead, these firms focus on retaining and passing on control from one generation to the next. The evidence shows that family firms pay low dividends and have higher leverage than non-family counterparts. The results support the entrenchment of minority shareholders and the proposition that a high payout signals a reduction in the information asymmetry and level of risk. The study further illustrates that cash dividends tend to reduce the level of risk perceived; however, (cash dividend) leads to the deterioration firm's liquidity and aid in the shrinking of cash among emerging market firms. The originality of the paper lies in factoring ownership concentration while explaining the dividend behaviour from an emerging markets perspective, characterized by high private benefits and weak protection for external minority shareholders.
