Model specification and applications
25.3 The simultaneity and dynamics of corporate-budgeting decisionsTABLE 25.1 Endogenous and exogenous variables
1. The endogenous variables are:
a) X1,t = DIVt = Cash dividends paid in period t;
b) X2,t = ISTt = Net investment in short-term assets during period t;
c) X3,t = ILTt = Gross investment in long-term assets during period t;
d) X4,t = -DFt = Minus the net proceeds from the new debt issues during period t;
e) X5,t = -EQFt = Minus the net proceeds from new equity issues during period t.
2. The exogenous variables are: 5 5
a) Yt = Σ Xi,t = Σ X*i,t, where Y = net profits +
i=1 i=1 depreciation allowance; a reformulation of the sources = uses identity.
25.3 The simultaneity and dynamics of corporate-budgeting decisions
TABLE 25.1 Endogenous and exogenous variables (Cont.)
b) RCB = Corporate Bond Rate (which corresponds to the weighted-average cost of long-term debt in the FR Model [Eqs. (20), (23), and (24) in Table 23.10], and the parameter for average interest rate in the WS Model [Eq. (7) in Table 23.1].
c) RDPt = Average Dividend-Price Ratio (or dividend yield, related to the P/E ratio used by WS as well as the
Gordon cost-of-capital model, discussed in Chapter 8). The dividend-price ratio represents the yield expected by
investors in a no-growth, no-dividend firm.d) DELt = Debt Equity Ratio (parameter used by WS in Eq. (18)
of Table 23.1).e) Rt = The rates-of-return the corporation could expect to
earn on its future long-term investment (or the internal rate-of-return discussed in Chapter 12).
f) CUt = Rates of Capacity Utilization (used by FR to lag capital requirements behind changes in percent sales; used here to define the Rt expected).

where X1,t, X2,t, X3,t, X4,t, X5,t, X*1,t and Yt are identical to those defined in Table 25.

25.8 Summary
Based upon the information, theory, and methods discussed in previous chapters, we discussed how the econometrics approach can be used as alternative to both the programming approach and simultaneous-equation approach to financial planning and forecasting. Both the SUR method and the structural simultaneous-equation method were used to show how the interrelationships among different financial-policy variables can be more effectively taken into account. In addition, it is also shown that financial planning and forecasting models can also be incorporated with the environment model and the management model to perform business-policy decisions.
NOTES
1. The stacking technique, which was first suggested by de Leeuw (1965), can be replaced by either the SUR or the constrained SUR technique. (See the next section and Appendix A for detail.) It should be noted that these techniques themselves can be omitted from the lecture without affecting the substance of the econometric approach to financial analysis and planning.
2. This section is essentially drawn from Spies' (1974) paper. Reprinted with permission of the Journal of Finance and the author. Basic concepts of matrix algebra used in this section can be found in Chapter 3. The simultaneous equation used in this section can be found in Appendix 2B in Chapter 2 of this book. In addition, the autoregressive model used in this chapter can be found in section 24.6 in chapter 24.
3. Theoretical development of this optimal model can be found in Spies' (1971) dissertation.
4. Bower (1970) provides an interesting discussion of corporate decision-making and its ability to adapt to a changing environment.
NOTES5. The constraint on the values of δij is a result of the "uses-equals-sources“ identity. Sum
ming Eq. (18.4) over i gives 5 5 5 5
Σ Xi,t = Σ Xi,t-1 + Σ Σ δij(X*
j,t-1), i=1 i=1 i=1 i=1
This can be rewritten as
Σ (Xi,t - Xi,t-1) = Σ (X*j,t - Xj,t-1) Σ δij.
i j i
The identity ensures that ΣjXj,t = ΣjX*
j,t, and therefore,
Σ (Xi,t - Xi,t-1) = Σ (Xj,t - Xj,t-1) Σ δij
i j i
Changing the notation slightly, this becomes
Σ (Xj,t - Xj,t-1) = Σ (Xj,t - Xj,t-1) Σ δij
j j i
or 1 = Σ δij. i
NOTES
6. This constraint ensures that the "uses-equals-sources" identity will hold for the estimated equations. First of all, we know that Σi ij = 1, since
1 -b ij for i = j, ij = -b ij for i . Therefore,
Σ ij = 1 - Σb ij = 1 - 0 = 1. i i
In addition, it can be shown that X*i,t = Yt. To show this, it is necessary
only to show that
0 for all k 4, Σ ajk = j 1 for all k = 4.
Note that ik = Σjijajk. Since we have constrained
0 for all k 4, Σc ik = i 1 for all k = 4.
NOTES6 (Cont.)
we can see that ΣC ik = Σ Σa ijajk
i i j
= Σ (Σa ij) jk
j i
= Σ (1)a jk
j
= Σa jk. j
Therefore,
0 for all k 4, Σa jk = j 1 for all k = 4. From all this it is clear that ^ ^
Σ Xi,t = Σ X*i,t = Yt.
