this paper compares the value relevance of book value and dividends versus book value and reported earnings. the main purpose of this study explains which of dividends, book value and earnings are more value relevance. thus, we have examined 98 firms of tehran stock exchange over a period 1377-1382. our methodology of examining the information content of various income statement and balance she...

Dual-class common stock allows for the separation of voting rights and cash flow rights across the different classes of equity. We construct a large sample of dual-class firms in the United States and analyze the relationships of insider’s cash flow rights and voting rights with firm value, performance, and investment behavior. We find that relationship of firm value to cash flow rights is posi...

This paper proposes a dynamic risk-based model capable of jointly explaining the term structure of interest rates, returns on the aggregate market and the risk and return characteristics of value and growth stocks. Both the term structure of interest rates and returns on value and growth stocks convey information about how the representative investor values cash flows of different maturities. W...

This paper tries to incorporate both Chung and Huang (2003b) and Huang and Chung (2003) to develop the buyer’s inventory model. That is, we want to investigate the buyer’s optimal cycle time and optimal payment time under supplier’s trade credit policy and cash discount policy. Mathematical models have been derived for obtaining the optimal cycle time and optimal payment time for item under sup...

The classical economic order quantity model of Wilson’s was developed with the assumption that the buyer must pay off immediately on arrival of the goods in the inventory system. In fact, offering buyers to delays payment for goods received is considered as a sales promotional tool in the business world. With offer of trade credit, vendor increases sales, attracts more buyers and reduces on – h...

T internal rate of return (IRR) is a venerable technique for evaluating deterministic cash flow streams. Part of the difficulty in extending this measure to stochastic cash flows is the lack of coherent methods for accounting for multiple or nonexistent internal rates of return in deterministic streams. Recently such a coherent theory has been developed, and we examine its implications for stoc...

In this note, we modify the model of Huang [21] discussed with retailer’s ordering policy under conditions of cash discount and trade credit. Mathematical model has been modified for obtaining the optimal cycle time and optimal payment policy for item under cash discount and trade credit so that the annual total cost is minimized. Then, we provide a theorem to efficiently determine the optimal ...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the causes and consequence of cash flow sensitivity. While cash flow has been regarded as an agency problem, empirical investigations in context of managerial conservatism or optimizing behavior are limited. In this paper we investigate two key aspects of cash flow sensitivity: whether cash flow sensitivity causes variations in fixed asset investments...
