| Tiivistelmä: | Consistent with a life-cycle theory of dividends, the fraction of publicly traded industrial companies that pay dividends is high when retained earnings are a large portion of total equity (and of total assets) and falls to near zero when most equity is contributed rather than earned. This study observes a highly significant relation between the decision to pay dividends and the earned/contributed capital mix, controlling for profitability, growth, company size, total equity, cash balances, and dividend history, a relation that also holds for dividend initiations and omissions. |
