Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of capital structure on dividend policy, the effect of liquidity on dividend policy, the effect of profitability on dividend policy in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2017-2019period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling method and the data validated were 50 companies. This research used multiple regression analysis assisted by the Eviews 9 and Microsoft Excel 2013 programs. The results show that the capital structure and liquidity do not have a significant effect on dividend policy while profitability has a significant effect on dividend policy. The implication of this research is that the level of capital structure and liquidity does not guarantee the level of dividends distributed. Meanwhile, low profitability will cause an increase in the amount of dividends that will be distributed.
