ABSTRACT
This study reveals that choice of dividend policy is a financial management decision that deserves a great care to strike and maintain a balance between:-
1.Paying out earnings (or part) to the stockholder.
2.Retaining it for reinvestments by the firm.
Ordinarily, the objectives above represent two different interest groups viz. The investor clamorous for high dividend pay-out, the investment (the firm) otherwise, higher dividend pay-out, means higher cash flow to the investors, which is good, but a lower future growth of the firm which on the other hand.
Therefore, an optional dividend policy is required to reconcile these opposing forces and maximize the price of the stock. The impact of dividend policy in market price of shares was discovered. Higher dividend payout attracts more investors and when there is rush for a company’s stock, the price will move up uientele effect. This is a common view of different authorities as shown by the literature review of this research.
The objective of this study is to investigate what effect a dividend policy adopted by a firm has on the market value of share of that company. The statistical analysis of this work was the computation of the share price in the market for the company with the dividend piggens in the first place and with the earning figures in the second place.
It was discovered using correlation coefficient that a strong positive relationship exists between the company’s dividend policy and her share. The hypothesis formulated was tested using analysis data. It should that dividend policy has impact on the firm’s share price. It is therefore uncommercial end that dividend pay-out be given a deserved consideration since it has a positive influence on the share price.
In conclusion, dividend policy has impacts on market value of shares.
