Empirical testing involves a binomial type of dependent variable whereby values I and 0 are assigned to represent choice of cash and equity financing, respectively. Probit regression is employed, but the results fail to provide proof of statistical significance for all variables. However, the analysis show corresponding signs of coefficients, which supports the direction of relationship as predicted in the hypotheses. 2015-01-20T04:15:12Z 2015-01-20T04:15:12Z 2011-02 Article International Journal of Business and Technopreneurship, vol.1 (Issue 1), 2011, pages 25-40 2231-7090 http://ijbt.unimap.edu.my/ http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/38590 http://ijbt.unimap.edu.my/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=59&Itemid=72 en School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
