Question 5
The issue as to whether dividend policy has an effect on share prices raises a question as to whether dividends paid out to stockholders are any more “certain” than the expected future dividends the stockholders hope to receive from retention of firm earnings. This is known as the bird-in-the-hand theory of dividend policy. Do you agree with this theory? Explain.
