23、roughout our analysis we are dealing only with a single investment-financing decision and have ignored the future financing-investment decisions. If we take this into account it will have some changes such as the future sales of outside equity and debt, managers decision, agency cost and etc.,The co

24、ntrol problem and outside owners agency costs,We have assumed that all outside equity is nonvoting. If such equity have voting right, the manager will concern about the effects on his long-run welfare of losing effective control of the firm (the danger of being fired). So to determine an equilibrium

25、 distribution of outside equity is necessary.,A note on the existence of inside debt and some conjectures on the use of convertible financial instruments,Bi / Si = B0 / S0 Bi / Si B0 / S0 Some other convertible securities such as warrants, convertible bonds, and convertible preferred stock,Monitorin

26、g and the social product of security analysts,A large body of evidence exist which indicates that security prices incorporate in an unbiased manner all public available information and much of what might be called “ private information.” Furthermore, the security analysis activities will reduce the

27、agency costs associated with the separation of ownership and control they are indeed social productive.,Specification in the use of debt and equity,Our previous analysis of agency costs suggests at least one other testable hypothesis: I.e., that in those industries where the incentive effects of outside equity and debt are widely different. The theory predicts the opposite would be true where the incentive effects of debt are large relative to the incentive effects of equity.,VII. Conclusion,
