This paper examines the causality among earnings, dividends and investments using the Granger-causality model. Using a sample of publicly traded South Korean manufacturing companies, we find that investments cause earnings. We also find that earnings cause dividends and investments cause dividends. These findings are supportive of non-trivial agency costs, asymmetric information, and their implications. The findings imply that corporate financial decisions should be analyzed within a simultaneous model framework.
