shareholders and it also indicates if firm does not have more profit they will not be able to issue
additional equity (Mitchell, 2017). In this regard both companies, should focus on making more
profit which will increase their market value of shares and will sustain in market for long terms .
In this regard theories are explain underneath-
The Gordan growth model- This model studies the main cause of dividend growth. For

retain the incomes for future dividend payouts. In this regard theory of dividend is discussed
below-
Dividend valuation model- This theory says that companies can sustain with the
expectation of future dividends. Shareholders acquire shares by giving present value of the
shares and they think, if current value of future dividends does not match with the current price
of share, they will not pay the amount.
Alternative options for financing and cost: The firms ability to raise money from external
sources will directly bear the level of paid dividend of shareholders. A company has a easy
access to capital market which makes it easy for them to raise funds from various alternative.
These alternatives will set the latitude for the policies which are related to dividend and in this
manner they can heavily rely on retention of earnings which will act as source of financing. The
things that will work against this approach is that payment of dividends are financing cost and
they issue expenses. Both Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd and Axiata Group Berhand, should
consider many factors before searching for alternatives for financing alternatives as both have
to set low levels for dividend which will decrease interest of their shareholders. In this reference
theory is explained underneath-
Modigliani and Millers dividend irrelevancy theory: This theory implies that patterns
of dividend will not effect the value of shares(Prawitz and Cohart, 2016). It suggested that if
divided is reduce now then it will increase the scope of extra retained earnings which encourage
reinvestments, that will grow dividends of future as well as earnings of future. Receipts of
dividends are comparatively lower now but this will exactly offset by the hike in present worth
of future dividends .
Factors that can encourage company managers of Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd and Axiata
Group Berhand to make decisions in favour of shareholders are-
Increase in profit by earning more will encourage shareholders to invest more in the
company as they have solid stock value. Managers should will not force them to sacrifice long
tern development. Managers should set goals relating to shareholders that will provide them
security. Managers should arrange quarterly and annual meetings to get feed back and voice
concerns finance. All of these factors will encourage company managers of Astro Malaysia
Holdings Bhd and Axiata Group Berhand to make decisions in favour of shareholders.

CONCLUSION
From the above report, it can be consider that divided is paid by the corporates to their
shareholders out of their net earnings and if they keep is as retained earning then they will not
pay this amount to their shareholders which through which they will not have sufficient amount
to cover their expenses and pay back to their shareholders. Dividend payout ratio display
information about how much company has paid to their shareholders and it is represents in
percentage. If that percentage is near to 100 than it shows it has fully paid to its shareholders this
also shows that company has left with nothing to invest in future businesses. and it does not
exceed the figure hundred than it shows that company has hold its earning to invest in future
activities. Payout ratio is useful in visualising the sustainability of dividends. Entities are
extremely eager to cut dividends in order to drive down the prices of stock which represents poor
management abilities. It is also matters in long term trends as steadily ratio display mature and
healthy business but on the other side the spiking or rising shows the sustainability. It is widely
used by industry sector as it becomes easy for them to evaluate their performances by
comparing with the other industries. It could be said that investment made in real estate
partnership enjoy exemptions of tax which are special and partnership related to master limited
tends to have high dividend payout ratio. Factors like growth and profitability, obligations of
debt and alternative options for financing and cost impact the dividend decisions of the
organisation. Theories like the gordan growth model studies refers to the main cause of dividend
growth, dividend valuation model which says that entities can survive with the expectation of
future dividends, modigliani and millers dividend irrelevancy theories which states that
structures of dividend will not consequence the worth of shares. All these theories helps in
deriving accurate amount of dividend depending on various factors. Increase in profit which
assure the shareholders interest with the continuous hard work, investment from shareholders,
their feedbacks which is an important aspects for the enterprises in order to get more relevant
suggestions for their betterment, and hike in value of stock implies shareholders are interest in
investing more in the business concerns all are some factors which promote managers to make
decisions in favour of their companies shareholders.
