Assessing Dividend Policy
Revisit the company you chose for your Week Six Final Project. Using the annual report and other sources such as a 10 k or 10 q's, discuss the dividend policy of your company.
Answer the following questions as part of your response:
• How would you describe your chosen company's dividend policy?
• Why do you believe this company chose the dividend policy they have in place?
• Do you agree or disagree that they have selected the best dividend policy for the company?
• How might this dividend policy function in both perfect and imperfect capital markets?
• Calculate the dividend rate over the past 5 years. Define why you believe that it has or has not changed over the last 5 years.
Support your position with evidence from the text or external sources. Your post should be 200-250 words in length.
