景氣循環具有相當高度不確定性，企業面對景氣循環以採取不同的營運及財務的策略，以求因應不確定的景氣波動，本研究試以景氣對策燈號此一指標的數據來對財務決策的影響，試圖找出是否有較佳的財務決策方式，以維持企業的獲利性與成長性。 本研究資料期間，始自經建會公佈之台灣景氣循環之第七循環至目前之景氣循環，期間為1985年至2004年。本研究之對象為除金融業外之上市企業，曾經歷兩次以上景氣循環者，計共有210家上市企業，包括34家電子產業176家傳統產業公司，共計3018筆資料。 實證結果發現： 一、面對景氣好轉時，企業會選擇提高固定資產成長率、資產成長率、每股股利、每股現金股利，降低研發費用率、負債比率。 二、面對景氣好轉時，較佳的財務決策應是提高研發費用率、固定資產成長率，控制資產成長率，避免資產膨脹過快。提高負債的運用。並採取高股票股利低現金股利的股利政策。 三、產業變數僅在財務決策上略有差異，經營績效則無。 四、公司規模大的企業採用較高的投資、融資決策，相對較低的股利發放，然而規模大的企業經營績效，並不顯著較佳。 === Business cycle is highly uncertain and hard to predict. Firms only can respond to business cycle passively by taking appropriate operating and financial strategies. Our research aims to use monitoring indicator issued by the Council for Economic Planning and Development to make better financial decisions in order to keep the profitability and growth of the firms. Our data start from the 7th business cycle, 1985, to now cross over 3 business cycles in Taiwan. Our research samples are companies listed on Taiwan exchange for longer than two business cycles, excluding financial industry. Therefore, total companies in our sample are 210 and then be divided into two categories, electronic industry with 34 companies and traditional industry with 176 companies, and the number of total data is 3018. The empirical results are summarized as follows： 1. When macroeconomic situation improved, firms would increase fixed asset growth rate, asset growth rate, dividend per share, and cash dividend per share, but decrease R&D ratio, and debt ratio at the same time. 2. Our research suggested that firms should increase R&D ratio, fixed asset growth rate, financial leverage, and control the speed of asset growth rate as the optimal financial decisions during the period of economic recovery. 3. The proxy variable of industry is insignificant to financial performance of firms. 4. Firms with larger scale will take higher investment and financing decisions with relatively lower dividend payout ratio. However, their financial performances have no significant difference.
