Table 1 The Twelve theories

Table 1 summarizes the results of our analysis of twelve application domains for which my firm has collected data that seem to be of interest to readers. The numbers in Table 1 were derived by taking a 600 project subset of our 2,000+ project experience database and performing statistical analysis. In addition, there are no foreign projects in our database to distort conclusions. The average productivity in our foreign databases for Europe (Belgium, England, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain and Sweden) and Asia (India, Korea, Japan and Singapore) are summarized in Table 2. This Table shows how the average productivity for these regions compares to the United States and tries to explain why they are different. Summaries for Australia, Canada and South American numbers are not included in our analysis because the number of completed projects in our databases is too small to be statistically significant. The box under each of the Tables provides notes about the contents. Data were validated using standard statistical means. When anomalies in the data were observed, site visits were made to address concerns. An acronym list is also provided below to define terms used in the Tables.

Table 3. The Citizens Utilities dividend premium and market reactions to dividend initiations, 1962-2000. The Citizens Utilities (CU) price ratio is the log of the ratio of the annual average cash dividend class share price to the annual average stock dividend class share price. The 1962 through 1972 data are from Long (1978) and the 1973 through 1989 data are from CRSP. A firm is defined as a new dividend payer at time t if it has positive dividends per share by the ex date (Item 26) at time t and zero dividends per share by the ex date at time t-1. We take the first dividend declaration date (DCLRDT) from CRSP in the twelve month period prior to the fiscal year ending in t. We calculate the sum of the differences between the firm return (RET) and the CRSP value-weighted market return (VWRETD) for a three-day window [-1, +1] around the declaration date. The announcement effect A scales this return by the standard deviation of the excess returns between 120 calendar days and five trading days before the declaration date. The test statistic from Campbell, Lo, and Mackinlay (1997, equation 4.4.24) is shown in braces and tests the null hypothesis of zero average price reaction in year t. CU Dividend
"... In PAGE 23: ...the 1973 through 1989 data are from Hubbard and Michaely (1997).12 Table3 reports the CU dividend premium year by year. By its nature, the CU dividend premium does not reflect anything about investment opportunities.... In PAGE 24: ... This statistic is asymptotically standard normal and has more power if the true abnormal return is constant across securities (Brown and Warner (1980) and Campbell, Lo, and MacKinlay (1997)), which is a natural hypothesis in our context. Table3 reports the average standardized initiation announcement effects year by year. Our last demand measure is the difference between the future returns on value-weighted indexes of payers and nonpayers.... ..."
