Firm Value, Free Cash Flows and Financing Decision: Evidence from Japan

Using Japanese firm data, this paper examines the relationship between firm value and financing decision factors within a free cash flow (FCF) framework. The findings are broadly consistent with the positive tax benefits hypothesis. We find that in firms leverage is positively related to firm value and dividends are negatively related to firm value during the sample period, 1985 to 1996. The re...

Resource Investment Problem with Discounted Cash Flows

A resource investment problem is a project-scheduling problem in which the availability levels of the resources are considered as decision variables and the goal is to find a schedule, and resource requirement levels, such that some objective function optimizes. In this paper, we consider a resource investment problem in which the goal is to maximize the net present value of the project cash fl...

Net Present Value of Cash Flows in Single Machine and Flow Shop Scheduling Problems

While a great portion of the scheduling literature focuses on time-based criteria, the most important goal of management is maximizing the profitability of the firm. In this paper, the net preset value criterion is studied taking account of linear time-dependent cash flows in single machine and flow shop scheduling problems. First, a heuristic method is presented for the single machine scheduli...
