The Factors That Determine Dividend Yield

By David Cooper


There are very many investments that people make during their lifetimes. This can be in family, educating children, purchase of real estate and several others. The ultimate investment however is taking part in establishment of a company. It takes several partners to establish a stable entity with a stable financial background. Each of these members is required to contribute to capital. The factors that are influencing the dividend yield are highly paramount.

Share-price ratio is parameter used in indicating the amount that an organization pays to shareholders in profits annually. It is usually expressed as a percentage of annual share prices as well. In other words, it is the earnings made on an investment. Several factors come into play when making this determination. Failure to make proper consideration, can affect the general outcome. They are corporate, legal and institutional in nature.

Since shares are basically the amount of money that the entity has made in that season, they highly depend on the profitability rate. At a time when the firm is making a lot of profit, it will be in good terms to declare high ratios to. Growth on the other hand calls for the reinvestment of profit. This therefore limits the share policy of organization.

The money that is used to make these returns is the ready cash flow. Many companies however have a tendency to keep majority of their resources in capital form for reasons related to conducting business extensively. This poses a challenge of them having to liquefy these resources when that time comes. The policies that are made therefore will totally be dependent on their capability to accomplish that.

The presence of other ways for the organization to make money also has a huge role to play in this aspect. One external source that can be used to raise funds is the capital market. Having various ways to make money other than the main trade makes cash flow to bulk. Such an organization has higher chances of making suitable policy.

The people controlling the organization also have a very central role when it comes to the policy creation. Many of these firms usually have more than one governing group of shareholders. Offering high rates can set an imbalance of power in place. In order to control their interests therefore the managerial controllers set strategic policies.

The laws of governing corporation formation, function and dissolution have an essential role in policy making. In a city such as Florida the law indicates that returns to investment can be paid from the current earning after the reduction of tear and wear. In a few cases the earning from previous economic calendar can be used too.

Inflationary tendencies must also be taken into account. This creates a dilemma whereby the shareholders are demanding for more cash payments. While at the same time the firm thinks otherwise since it is incurring so much costs in investment and replacement of worn out equipment and other assets as well.
