The study aims at empirically proving and analyzing the balance model of Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM with the multifactor of risks, consisting of: outstanding stocks value, capital structure represented by Debt EquiQ Ratio (DER), market risk as represented by stock market beta, and the interest rate on company return on stock.This research uses a dynamic model approach considering the existence of the weaknessesin a classic linear model. Since the investment is related to investors behavior that need a lag to market change, the use of the dynamic model approach will be better. It is because the dynamic model uses autoregressive approach containing the lag. The dynamic model used here is Partial Adjustment Model (PAM) and Error Correction Model (ECM).  Based on the estimation of the PAM model it is proven that the model is inefficient in finding the evidence confirming the hypothesis. Subsequently,based on the result of the examination of the ECM model it isconcluded that outstanding stocks value has a positive and signiJicant impact in short term and a negative impact in long term. It means that in the short term outstanding stocks value serves as the consideration for investors in making an investment. However in the long term they are likely to believe that the use of smaller internal capital proportion will be more beneficial for them. The capital structure has only a longierm impact on the return on stock. It means that the impact of DER on stock return on miscellaneous industry sector needs the quite long lag to influence the investors in determining stocks return. It indicates that in the long term they believ:e that the use of increasing number of loan will causes the decrease in company liquidity. Consequently, the opportunity for the company to go bankrupt is bigger Beta stock in the study has a negative impact in the long term. Theoretically, it is not consistent with the parameter direction and indicated that beta stock does notserve as an app;r,pviate prory in measuring the rislcs on. miscellaneous industry sector The interest rate has in the long term a negative impact on stocks return and needs the long lag to influence the investors in determining the return on stocks.Keywords: Stock return, outstanding stock value, DER (Debt Equity Ratio), beta, interest rote, ECM (Eruor Correction Model)

This study reviews the empirical studies arranged on Pakistani capital market and specifies the pattern of three corporate finance practices.  The subject of corporate finance discusses the various activities performed at firm level such as capital budgeting, capital structure, and dividend payout policy. The capital budgeting technique consists of six methods i.e., net present value, discounted cash flow, payback period, and internal rate of return etc. but Pakistani firms often interested in net present value and internal rate of return for capital investment evaluation. Similarly, the capital structure decision carries the debate on two options of financing i.e., debt financing and equity financing but literature shows that the Pakistani firms generally follow the pecking order theory and prefer more debt financing. Similarly, as for concern dividend payout policy, literature discusses the different theories and determinants but still unable to generalize the dividend payout trend specifically in Pakistani context. Corporate managers and policymakers can use the conclusion for strategic purposes.

This study aims to determine the determinants of the capital structure of the Lippo Group and the Bakrie Group listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange using the partial adjustment model approach. The population in the Lippo Group company is 12 and the population at the Bakrie Group company is 9. The sample of this study is that all companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange are 21 companies. Data analysis used panel data regression method with partial adjustment model approach. The results of the research in the t test at the Lippo Group company show that the lag leverage has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, profitability has a positive and significant effect on leverage, company size has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, earning volatility has a positive and significant effect on leverage, assets tangibility has a positive and significant effect on leverage and growth opportunity has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage. The results of the research in the t test at the Bakrie Group company show that the lag leverage has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, profitability has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, company size has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, earning volatility has a positive and insignificant effect on leverage, assets tangibility has a negative and insignificant effect on leverage, growth opportunity has a negative and insignificant effect on leverage. The partial adjustment model test results show that only Lippo Group company on the variables of profitability, earning volatility and assets tangibility have a significant positive effect on leverage. The results of the comparison of the optimal capital structure show that the Bakrie Group has a higher level of optimal capital structure by 83% than the Lippo Group at 55%. Keywords: Lag Leverage, Profitability, Company Size, Earning Volatility, Assets Tangibility, Growth Opportunity, Leverage.

PurposeThis paper presents a model for determining the optimal capital structure for cooperatives and explores the relationship between financial leverage and the ability of cooperatives to retire member equity.Design/methodology/approachA model is developed to determine the optimal capital structure and explore the relationship between capital structure and the rate at which a cooperative can retire member equity. Using data from cooperative financial statements, ordinary least-squares regressions are conducted to test two hypotheses on capital structure and equity retirement.FindingsThe model shows that the optimal capital structure is determined by the ratio of the rate of return on capital employed to the interest rate on borrowed capital and the required level of interest coverage. The regressions suggest that cooperatives choose their capital structure largely according to the rate of return on capital employed and the interest rate in a manner consistent with maximizing the rate of return on equity and that the rate at which cooperatives can retire member equity is directly related to leverage.Research limitations/implicationsThe model does not consider unallocated earnings. Analysis of the relationship between leverage and equity retirement yields results contrary to the assumptions of earlier studies.Practical implicationsCooperatives can use the model because the necessary parameters are easily understood and readily available from financial statements, lenders and industry sources.Originality/valueThe model is developed specifically for determining the capital structure of cooperatives and differs substantially from the corporate model. A theoretical basis is provided for the relationship between leverage and equity retirement.
