Although the classical dividend discount model (DDM) is a wellknown and widely used model in evaluating the intrinsic price of common stock, the practical pattern of dividends, required rate of return or growth rate of dividend do not generally coincide with any of the model’s assumptions. It is just the opportunity to develop a fuzzy logic system that takes these vague parameters into account....

the basic model for valuation of firm is the dividend discount model (ddm). when investors buy stocks, they expect to receive two types of cash flow: dividend in the period during which the stock is owned, and the expected sales price at the end of the period. in the extreme example, the investor keeps the stock until the company is liquidated; in such a case, the liquidating dividend becomes t...

High dividend yields imply that either future dividend growth must be low, or future discount rates must be high, or both. While previous studies have focused on the predictability of expected returns from dividend yields, dividend yields also strongly predict future dividends, and the predictability of dividend growth is much stronger than discount rates returns at a 1-year horizon. Inference ...

We discuss Q-balls in the complex signum-Gordon model in d-dimensional space for d = 1, 2, 3. The Q-balls have strictly finite size. Their total energy is a power-like function of the conserved U (1) charge with the exponent equal to (d + 2)(d + 3) −1. In the cases d = 1 and d = 3 explicit analytic solutions are presented.

We have studied the solutions of the combined sine–cosine-Gordon Equation found by Wazwaz [A.M. Wazwaz, Travelling wave solutions for combined and double combined sine-cosine-Gordon equations by the variable separated ODE method, Appl. Math. Comput. 177 (2006) 755] using the variable separated ODE method. These solutions can be transformed into a new form. We have derived the relation between t...

Gender and Emotional Expressiveness: An Analysis of Prosodic Features in Emotional Expression RÓISÍN PARKINS* Abstract Studies looking into emotional differences between men and women are plentiful. Conventional wisdom leads us to believe that women are more emotional than men, or at least are more emotionally expressive (Kring & Gordon 1998). This conventional wisdom has been supported by t...
