Dividend Irrelevancy Theory is…
as long as org invests in positive NPV projects, shareholder wealth will increase
Clientele Effect
consistent divi policy will attract a clientele of shareholders who like that approach

some prefer divi now rather than promise of uncertain divis in the future
Signalling effect
Divis give signal about performance of company so can result in selling of shares
Impact on shareholder wealth of…
scrip dividends
Share repurchase
Scrip dividends - no impact on shareholder wealth
Share repurchase - same impact as if divi were paid
VAR =
95% Z score =
99% Z score =
VAR = Z score x standard deviation
95% Z score = 1.645
99% Z score = 2.33
Allocating interest - sum of digits method
Year 1: n / { n(n+1) / 2 } x total interest
Year 2: n - 1 / { n(n+1) / 2 } x total interest
Year 3: n - 2 / { n(n+1) / 2 } x total interest
Operating profit margin =
Gross profit margin =
Operating profit / revenue x100
Gross profit / revenue x100
ROE =
ROCE =
ROE = NET profit / equity x100
ROCE = Op profit / cap employed x100
EPS =
Profit AFTER tax, interest & pref divis / no. shares
P/E =
share price / EPS
Divi Cover =
EPS / DPS
Divi Yield =
DPS / share price
Total annual return to investors =
{(Closing share price - opening share price) + divi} / opening share price

GEARING
Traditional view
1958 M&M no tax theory
1963 M&M with tax theory
Traditional view - there is an optimum gearing level where WACC is minimised and value of co. is maximised
1958 M&M no tax theory - WACC is constant at all levels of gearing
1963 M&M with tax theory - WACC reduces as gearing increases due to the tax relief of debt
M&M equation for Keg=
Keg = Keu + (Keu - Kd) {Vd(1-t) / Ve}
M&M equation for WACC =
WACC = Keu x {1 - (Vd x t / Ve + Vd )}
Equation to degear and regear beta between proxy & actual company
Bu = Bg { Ve / Ve+Vd(1-t) }
