Why are dividends sticky?

Tsai, Chun-Li 01 November 2005 (has links)
This dissertation investigates the sluggish adjustment process of dividend payment in the stock market. First, I focus on the individual stocks. A casual investigation of observed dividends for individual stocks shows dividend adjustments are sluggish and discrete; this is not consistent with the Lintner??s stylized fact (1956) in which dividend adjustments are assumed to change continuously. Thus, I examine three possible explanations to account for dividend stickiness and discreteness: menu-costs (i.e. a constant adjustment cost), decision-making delays, and dividend adjustment asymmetry. I reject Dixit??s menu-cost model as an appropriate specification for the sluggish adjustment process of dividends. The empirical results imply that decisionmaking delays and dividend adjustment asymmetry might be possible explanations for sticky and discrete dividends on selected individual stocks. Second, I focus on the aggregate stock market. I use a quadratic adjustment cost model to examine whether adjustment costs can explain the slow adjustment of aggregate dividends. The empirical results suggest that adjustment costs might be a significant factor explaining the slow dividend adjustment for S&P 500. The value of relative weigh cost is related to the specification of target dividend. If target dividendsare related to earnings, then the empirical results suggest that the adjustment costs are about forty-fold more important than the deviation cost between the actual dividend and the target level in determining the dynamic dividend adjustment process. If target dividends are specified as proportion to the stock prices, the adjustment costs are about fourteen-fold more important than the deviation cost between actual dividend and target level when managers determine the dividends.

We show that the usual conclusions of negative correlation between current inflation and duration of a price, an indication of state-dependency, do not survive the control for inflation expectations. When we do that, the negative correlation is between expected inflation and the duration of a price, indicating endogenous-time-dependency. We argue that the previous results were possibly suffering from omitted variable bias. / Este artigo propõe um novo teste para distinção entre modelos macroeconômicos de precificação. Onde testes antigos concluíram haver uma relação negativa entre inflação corrente e duração de um preço, indicando estado-dependência, nosso teste indica que a relação verdadeira é entre inflação esperada e duração do preço, indicando tempo-dependência-endógena. Argumentamos que os resultados previamente encontrados possivelmente sofreram de viés de variável omitida.

通貨膨脹之福利成本

陳繡里, CHEN,XIU-LI Unknown Date (has links)
由歷史的遞嬗,通貨膨脹著實困擾著不同地區、不同制度的人們。通貨膨脹的發生往 往影響經濟個體的工作、儲蓄、理想,經濟學家為了探究通貨膨脹對社會的危害,著 手研究通貨膨脹所帶來的福利成本。本文嘗試以一宏觀的角度來分析這個問題。 本文除前言、結論之外,共分三大部份,第一部份為傳統靜態分析,以Bailey及Phe- lps 的模型及Fischer 的模型為主,前者認為通貨膨脹宛如對貨幣課稅,即通貨膨脹 稅,其稅額應為通貨膨脹率乘以實貨貨幣余額

In the rst two chapters I study general models in which rms pricing decisions are a¤ected by menu costs and information costs. In Chapter 1 I estimate these models using American data on price changes, concluding that: information costs are signi cantly higher than menu costs; real data does not t into the model in which rms receive information about aggregate conditions freely but pay for idio- syncratic information. In Chapter 2 I explore the consequences of monetary shocks and disin ation announcements using the previously estimated models. I show that the degree of monetary non-neutrality is larger in an economy where part of the infor- mation is given for free. Chapter 3 is a coauthored paper with Carlos Carvalho and Antonella Tutino. We abstract from menu costs and examine a price-setting model in which rms are subject to a Shannon constraint on information ow. We calibrate the model and investigate impulse response functions to aggregate and idiosyncratic shocks. We nd that, rather than tracking aggregate and idiosyncratic conditions independently, rms prefer to process information altogether, and that leads to a faster overall price level adjustment, and thus to less real e¤ects persistence after a monetary shock. / Esta tese se dedica ao estudo de modelos de fixação de preços e suas implicações macroeconômicas. Nos primeiros dois capítulos analiso modelos em que as decisões das firmas sobre seus preços praticados levam em conta custos de menu e de informação. No Capítulo 1 eu estimo tais modelos empregando estatísticas de variações de preços dos Estados Unidos, e concluo que: os custos de informação são significativamente maiores que os custos de menu; os dados claramente favorecem o modelo em que informações sobre condições agregadas são custosas enquanto que as idiossincráticas têm custo zero. No Capítulo 2 investigo as consequências de choques monetários e anúncios de desinflação usando os modelos previamente estimados. Mostro que o grau de não-neutralidade monetária é maior no modelo em que parte da informação é grátis. O Capítulo 3 é um artigo em conjunto com Carlos Carvalho (PUC-Rio) e Antonella Tutino (Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas). No artigo examinamos um modelo de fixação de preços em que firmas estão sujeitas a uma restrição de fluxo de informação do tipo Shannon. Calibramos o modelo e estudamos funções impulso-resposta a choques idiossincráticos e agregados. Mostramos que as firmas vão preferir processar informações agregadas e idiossincráticas conjuntamente ao invés de investigá-las separadamente. Este tipo de processamento gera ajustes de preços mais frequentes, diminuindo a persistência de efeitos reais causados por choques monetários.
