This study examined the capital structure of listed industrial companies on Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) over the period (2001- 2005). The findings of this study contribute towards a better understanding of financing behaviour in Jordanian industrial companies. Hypotheses, based on comparing the relationships between Leverage ratio (Lev 1), LTD/TD (Long-term debts/total debts) and five explanatory variables that represent size, tangibility, profitability, long-term debt and short-term debt. To test those relationships regression analysis for Leverage ratio (Lev 1) and TD LTD
In this thesis I will research the influence of a certain set of determinants on the capital structure of Dutch stock-market listed firms. First I will select a number of firm-specific determinants as independent variables, whose influence on the capital structure I will test in multiple analyses. I will compare the influence of the firm specific variables across different time periods to capture the influence of the recent financial crisis on the relationship between the variables and the capital structure. It turns out multiple of my firm specific variables had a significant relationship, while the relationships were indeed different across the multiple selected time periods.
We prove that groups acting geometrically on delta-quasiconvex spaces contain no essential Baumslag-Solitar quotients as subgroups. This implies that they are translation discrete, meaning that the translation numbers of their nontorsion elements are bounded away from zero.
