Abstract: | In the paper, the discounted dividends model by Dempsey (1996) is extended to provide a weighted average cost of capital (or WACC) assessment of investment opportunities with irregular cash flows. Thereafter, a framework is extended to assessment of the implications of government tax policy for the firm's investment behaviour. The developed framework is consistent with empirical evidence of Poterba and Summers (1985). |
