Research Abstract |
Our study of this year is divided to two part ; one of them is to conduct cmpirical researches as continuing efforts to prove the validity of our theories and another part of is to build theoretical models. The former was done by Ichimura, Muramatsu, Mizuno and Kamiryou and they have alredy published their accomplishments in the academic journals. After Ichimura had surveyed empirical studies on the Capital structures of U.S. firms historically, he has extended his study as to the theoretical examination on the relationships between share repurchases and capital structures. Muramatsu has introduced the empirical research of the effcts of corporate merger on the capital stuructures of U.S. firms which was done by an American scholar. He conducted that the mergers had contributed to augment a debt capacity of merged companies and subsequently to increase the corporate profits.

Mizuno has analyzed the effects of corporate profits and risks on the capital structure, employing a simple tax-sheeter, bank-ruptey-cost model. He has simulated many factors in using their theoretical model. Yasuda has examined the corporate-tax saving effects of debts comparing the wealth taxation system with the income taxation system which are significant issure in the area of corperate finance. He has eapoloyed a state preference model for the stady. In his reseach, he has reviewed the definition for an impricit tax rate of debt and examined the existence of optimal capital strueture using the theoretical framework of taxation only. Okabe has studied the relationship between a financial eeverage and the eorporale growth from the view point of strategic management. Tateisi has studied the literature on Bankruptey Cost Models and re-examined optimal capital structure models by analyzing the bankruptey-costs quantitatively. Less
