The Effects of the Corporate Refinancings of 1936 and 1946 on the Net Income of the Indianapolis Water CompanyBowers, John Frederick 01 January 1948 (has links)
It is an accepted fact that the Net Income of the Indianapolis Water Company was increased by the corporate refinancings of 1936 and 1946. However, no detailed study has been made, to date, to show the amount of the increase either in aggregate or in annual amounts. The writer thought such a study would be informative and interesting and the result of his study is presented herewith.

Model Specification for CMBS Loan Default: A Retrospective Look at CMBS Performance Through the Great RecessionSacks, Benjamin 01 January 2018 (has links)
This paper examines CMBS loans originated from 2004 to 2007 in order to find the correct model specifications for loan default during the Great Recession. The data controls for loan-to-value, debt-service coverage ratio, debt-yield, loan rate, loan spread, term lengths, loan origination year, asset class, refinance or acquisition, and demographic data of state income and sales tax rates, state education spending per pupil, education rates by MSA, unemployment rates by MSA, and median household income by zip. The study affirms existing research that LTV and debt yield are significantly correlated with default probability, found a strong relationship between loan rate, but not spread on default, affirmed industry knowledge that lodging is generally the riskiest asset class, and found that education levels in an MSA can significantly explain loan default rates. There was limited significance in regression results for unemployment rates, education spending, and median income on default probability and no evidence of default correlation with sales or income taxes. The study also provides evidence that during economic bubbles with skewed assets valuations, debt-yield becomes a more useful metric compared to LTV.

Institutional Ownership in Relation to the Mandatory Audit Firm Rotation Rule and its Effect on Audit QualityShah, Latisha 01 January 2018 (has links)
Previous studies have concluded that mandatory audit firm rotation (MAFR) has not been successful in controlling the outcomes of the auditor-client relationship. Additionally, the literature concludes that high institutional ownership enhances audit quality through monitoring the management-auditor relationship. This paper hypothesizes that better corporate governance in terms of high institutional ownership percentage will enhance audit quality during a MAFR regime. Since countries that have implemented MAFR in the past have their data in their local languages, I use the special case of Arthur Andersen clients based in the US as my treatment group. I carry out a descriptive statistical analysis and run linear OLS regressions with discretionary accruals as a proxy for audit quality as my dependent variable. Results suggest that the percentage of institutional ownership does not have a significant impact on audit quality in a MAFR regime.

The Effects of Bringing an NBA Franchise to a City on Employment: A Case Study of Memphis, Oklahoma City, Orlando, Sacramento, and Salt Lake CityShah, Ravi 01 January 2018 (has links)
This paper utilizes a case study approach to explain the impact of having a franchise from the National Basketball Association (NBA) move to a city where a team from the four major American sports league had not existed on employment levels. This paper utilizes the synthetic control method to examine employment in Memphis, Oklahoma City, Orlando, Sacramento, and Salt Lake City. Applying the synthetic control method, this paper finds that employment is not impacted positively as the stadium proposals suggest they will when putting forth subsidy bids. Due to the large costs imposed on taxpayers as a result of the subsidies franchises receive, further research should be conducted to look at the impact of spending on public expenditures instead of stadiums and its impact on employment levels.

Políticas de dividendos no Brasil: um modelo de apoio à decisão / Dividend policy in Brazil: a model for decision supportMarcelo Augusto Ambrozini 31 October 2011 (has links)
Do ponto de vista financeiro, o objetivo de uma empresa é promover a maximização da riqueza econômica dos seus acionistas. Por essa lógica, uma decisão de investimento só deve ser aceita se o retorno oferecido pelo projeto superar o custo do capital nele empregado. Nas decisões de financiamento, busca-se atingir a estrutura ótima de capital da empresa, que leve a minimização da média ponderada dos custos de capital da companhia e, consequentemente, à maximização da riqueza do acionista. Mas, ao contrário das decisões de investimento e de financiamento, as decisões de dividendos não possuem como princípio norteador um único parâmetro a ser seguido, já que diversos fatores financeiros, legais, fiscais e até mesmo comportamentais afetam essa decisão. A literatura de finanças apresenta um modelo para a decisão de dividendos chamado de Modelo de Dividendos Residuais (MDR). Nele, o percentual de dividendos a ser distribuído é determinado com base no lucro líquido contábil, no índice alvo de capital próprio da empresa e no orçamento de capital. No entanto, além de não priorizar a maximização da riqueza do acionista, entende-se que o MDR deixa de contemplar algumas importantes variáveis que deveriam ser levadas em consideração no momento da definição payout de dividendos, conforme preconizado pela literatura de finanças. Neste trabalho, foi realizada uma pesquisa empírica que verificou se, na prática, os gestores das companhias brasileiras de capital aberto levam em consideração os diversos fatores apresentados pelos estudos acadêmicos como sendo fundamentais para as decisões de dividendos. Em seguida, foi proposto um modelo conceitual de apoio ao processo de tomada de decisão de destinação dos lucros que leva em consideração fatores como a geração de valor econômico ao acionista, as particularidades legais e tributárias brasileiras, o poder de distorção da inflação na formação do lucro contábil, a estrutura ótima de capital da empresa, a existência de projetos futuros com valor presente líquido positivo, o fluxo de caixa livre para o acionista, entre outros. Esse modelo tem como objetivo oferecer um mapa decisorial conceitual mais abrangente do que o MDR e espera-se que forneça um parâmetro mais adequado para as decisões de dividendos por parte dos gestores empresariais brasileiros. / From the financial management point of view, the objective of a company is to promote the maximization of their shareholders economical wealth. So, an investment decision could only be accepted if the return on this investment surpass the capital spend to generate it. In financing decisions, the goal is to achieve the companys optimal capital structure leading to the minimization of the weighted average cost of capital of the company, consequently, the maximization of the shareholder wealth. But, unlike the investment and financing decisions, the dividends decisions do not have as a guiding principle a single parameter to be followed, since several financial, legal, fiscal and even behavioral factors affect this decision. The financial management literature presents a model of dividends decisions called Residual Dividend Model (RDM), a model in which the percentage of dividends to be shared is determined based on accounting net profit, on the equity target measure and on the capital budget. However, besides not to prioritize the maximization of the shareholders wealth, it is understood that the RDM fails to address some important variables that should be taken into account when setting the dividend payout, as showed by the financial management literature. The present study aimed to verify by an empirical research whether the managers of Brazilian public companies take into account the various factors presented by academic studies as being essential for the dividend decisions. And then it was proposed a conceptual model to support the decision making process for the profit destination which takes into consideration factors such as economic value to shareholders, the particularities of Brazilian legal and tax systems, the distortion caused by the inflation in the accounting profit, the optimal capital structure of the company, the existence of future projects with positive net present value, free cash flow to shareholders, among others. This model aims to provide a decision map concept wider than the RDM and it is expected to provide a more appropriate parameter for the dividends decisions by the Brazilian business managers.

Cryptocurrencies and Cybercrime: The Effects of Ransom Events on the Evolution of BitcoinWilson, Jacob 01 January 2018 (has links)
With the explosion of Bitcoin, various cryptocurrencies are beginning to garner incredible amounts of attention from speculators and institutional investors alike. Simultaneously, the rise in the number of occurrences of cyber ransom attacks has proven to be an increasingly relevant part of the conversation in the formative years of the Bitcoin ecosystem, as hackers demand payments be in the form of bitcoin. To test the relative impact of these different ransom events on the price of bitcoin, this paper conducts an event study to quantify the reaction by investors upon revelation of the news. In addition, it examines differences between Bitcoin and two other cryptocurrencies, Ethereum and Litecoin, to control for any liquidity effects of victims buying up large sums of bitcoin. The findings of the study indicate that following the ransom events there is a positive price reaction, supporting the claim that investors in Bitcoin generally perceive these events as good news. This could have a profound effect on the development and further adoption of cryptocurrencies, as regulators try to determine whether or not to intervene.
