The main objective of the study is to examine the impact of ownership structure, diversification strategy, leverage, external factor, internal factor on the value of the firms in Jakarta Stock Exchange. It is argued that unlike the agency problem of advanced stock market, the agency problem in the Jakarta Stock Exchange is the divergence of interest between the minority holders and majority holders. This is because the Jakarta Stock Exchange is characterized, among other things, by the domination of large shareholders. The hypotheses are: (1) there are the impact of ownership structure, external factor, and internal factor on diversification strategy, (2) there are the impact of ownership structure, external factor, internal factor, and diversification strategy on leverage, (3) there are the impact of ownership structur, external factor, internal factor, leverage ,diversification strategy on value of the firm. This study is to examine Agency Theory, Jensen and Meckling (1976), Pecking Order Theory, Myers (1984), Trade Off Model and Signaling Theory (1979). Population in this study are public company listed in Jakarta Stock Exchange  during 2000 – 2004. As many as 134  firms listed in Jakarta Stock Exchange were taken as a sample using a purposive sampling method.The data were then analyzed by the structural equation modeling ( SEM) analysis, using the AMOS Program version 4.01.The results of this study show that (1) there are the impact of ownership structure, external factor, internal factor on diversification strategy, (2) there are the impact of ownership structure, diversification, external factor, internal factor on leverage,(3)there are the impact of ownership structure, external factor, internal factor, leverage, diversification on value  of the  firm. The result of the study does not support the Agency Theory, from Jensen and Meckling (1976), but the result of the study  supports  Pecking Order Theory from  Myers (1984),  Trade off model and Signaling Theory from Battacharya (1979). The result of the study is hoped to contribute theoretically and practically.Theoritical contribution is bounded to examine the Agency Theory from Jensen and Meckling (1976), Pecking Order Theory from Myers (1984), Trade off model and Signaling Theory from Battacharya (1979). The result of the study to indicate that  practice public company in Indonesia is not concern with Agency Theory from Jensen and Meckling (1976). The result of the study indicates that Pecking Order Theory from Myers (1984). Trade Off Model and Signaling Theory from Battacharya,(1979) are concerned with the practice public company in Indonesia.

Contrary to the trade-off theory, pecking order theory is based on the information asymmetry that exists between internal stakeholders (owners, managers) and external stakeholders (donors) to the company. We study firms’ financing behaviour over life cycle stages in the context of the pecking order theory. This paper is interested in testing the relation between ownership structure, the life cycle and the funding classification in French companies in the period 2005-2014. The hypotheses tested were derived from the pecking order models and analysis was conducted on data panel with econometric software Stata. The results show that the pecking order explains the debt in French companies that are in growth phase, maturity or decline.

This study investigates adjustments in capital structures for agricultural cooperatives and differences before and during the agricultural downturn which started in 2013. We estimate a simultaneous equation model to test for cooperatives’ capital structure strategies based on two main theories from the corporate finance literature: the trade-off theory and the pecking order theory. Estimation results reveal that agricultural cooperatives in the U.S. generally adjust to short-term financial targets for equity and debt, supporting the trade-off theory while there is little support for the pecking order theory within the agricultural cooperatives sector.

The main objective of this article is to study the capital structure determinants of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the hospitality sector and how this can influence their level of indebtedness. Using panel data methodology and considering a sample of 43 Portuguese hotels, the authors study the capital structure determinants between 2004 and 2013. The study examines the indebtedness level in light of the two main theories – the Trade-off theory and the Pecking Order theory. The hospitality sector was chosen because of its importance in the Portuguese economy and because this particular sector has hardly been studied. In addition to total indebtedness, the authors extend the literature by analysing the differences between short-term and long-term indebtedness. The results obtained suggest that profitability, assets tangibility, firm dimension, total liquidity and risk are key factors affecting the capital structure of hospitality sector SMEs, while growth, other tax benefits and age were not deemed relevant. These results allow us to conclude that Trade-off and Pecking Order theories should not be considered in isolation to explain the capital structure of hospitality sector SMEs.

Capital structure is one of the most complex areas of financial decision making because of its inter-relationship with other financial decision variables. Poor capital structure decisions can result in a high cost of capital which decreases the value of a firm. Effective capital structure decisions decrease the cost of capital and hence the value of a firm increases.  The objective of this empirical study is to analyze the factors affecting capital structure of sugar industry in Pakistan and to check whether the results confirm or not pecking order theory and trade-off theory. Different theories of capital structure have been reviewed like Modigliani and miller theory, trade-off theory, pecking order theory and market timing theory to make assumptions regarding capital structure of sugar firms. The findings are based on empirical results using panel data techniques for a sample of 30 firms listed on Karachi Stock Exchange from 2008-2011. The results show that tangibility is positively associated with leverage whereas size of the firm and liquidity are negatively associated with leverage. The results of profitability and growth opportunities are insignificant.

The purpose of this paper is to scrutinize and appreciate the theories of capital structure starting from theory of Miller and Modigliani (1958) of capital structure, which is also known as irrelevance theory of capital structure and also including theory like pecking order theory, trade off theory, market timing theory and agency cost theory. In addition, authors have tried to explain the theories and their contradiction with each other in detail. This paper will be an addition to understand the theories of capital structure.

Keputusan pendanaan merupakan kombinasi pendanaan jangka panjang dan jangka pendek dengan mempertimbangkan kemampuan membayar biaya modal kepada investor. Salah satu faktor dipertimbangkan sebelum menambah sumber dana adalah kondisi defisit vs surplus finansial sehingga tujuan riset mengekplorasi kondisi tersebut serta keterkaitanya dengan perubahan struktur utang. Pertama mengidentifikasi kondisi defisit vc surplus finansial berdasarkan pembayaran dividen, investasi jangka panjang, modal kerja bersih dan internal cash flow. Kedua membandingkan jumlah rata-rata penambahan utang jangka panjang antara kondisi surplus dengan deficit. Ketiga menguji efek indikator serta kondisi defisit financial terhadap perubahan utang. Dilakukan observasi 292 sektor manufaktur terdaftar di BEI periode 2008-2013 dengan hasil yaitu: (1) Terdapat perbedaan rata-rata perubahan utang jangka panjang antara deficit dengan surplus keuangan, (2) Terdapat pengaruh signifikan 1% diantara indikator deficit keuangan terhadap perubahan utang. (3) Deficit financial berpengaruh positif signifikan 1% terhadap perubahan utang. Hasil mengidentifikasi pentingnya deteksi kondisi financial untuk memonitor perubahan struktur utang. Terakhir, disimpulkan bahwa strategi pendanaan belum sepenuhnya menganut pecking order theory, melainkan terjadi kombinasi dengan trade off models.
