Different Types of Dividends
Many companies pay a regular cash dividend.
Public companies often pay quarterly.
Sometimes firms will throw in an extra cash dividend.

Often companies will declare stock dividends.

The Benchmark Case: An Illustration of the Irrelevance of Dividend Policy
A compelling case can be made that dividend policy is irrelevant.
Since investors do not need dividends to convert shares to cash they will not pay higher prices for firms with higher dividend payouts.
In other words, dividend policy will have no impact on the value of the firm because investors can create whatever income stream they prefer by using homemade dividends.
Homemade Dividends
Bianchi Inc. is a $42 stock about to pay a $2 cash dividend.
Bob Investor owns 80 shares and prefers $3 cash dividend.
Bob’s homemade dividend strategy:
