Q: 17
The Board of Directors of a small listed company engaged in exploration are currently considering the
future dividend policy of the company. Exploration is considered a high-risk business and

embark on a major capital investment project. Debt finance is unlikely to be available due to the
project's high business risk.
Which THREE of the following are practical considerations when determining the company's
dividend/retention policy?
