Type: report
Abstract: In this paper we analyze the manager's financing decision for a new project. We give the manager a choice between financing with debt or equity, or foregoing the project. Our purpose is to provide a signaling model in which debt, equity and foregoing are actually observed in the unique equilibrium and the financing mode provides information to the investors about the quality of the new project to be financed.
