Abstract
The main objective of this study is to appraise the impact of capital structure on value of firms in Nigeria for the period 2010-2014. Capital structure is one of the effective tools of management to manage the cost of capital, one of the main objectives of a corporate financial manager is to ensure the lower cost of capital and thus maximize the wealth of shareholders.
The data for this study were purely obtained from the secondary sources, from the annual reports of three deposit money banks in Nigeria from 2010-2014. Data analysis was conducted with pooled regression technique.
The results showed that capital structure (increases as debt ratio) had positive and significant impact on the value of the firm. Other variables heard significant impact on firm value are asset turnover (10%), liquidity (5%) and asset tangibility.
The study therefore concludes that firms should continue to adopt the use of debt in their capital structure up to the point that is consistent with their firm`s value maximization.
