The answer to this question is TRUE. it is on page 431 of the text, "Corporate Finance"
Because not to do so would change the relationship between them 3.45/12.3 = 345/1230 = 0.2805 (approx) If you multiplied the dividend by 100 and the divisor by ten (doing just enoguh to remove the decimal places) then the relationship (the ratio) changes 345/ 123 = 2.8049 (approx)
When dividing by decimals, the easiest way to do this is to modify the question so that there is no longer a decimal in the divisor. Just as with equivalent fractions, if we multiply the dividend and the divisor by the same number, we do not actually change the question. For example, consider 1 divided by 0.2 (ie 1 / 0.2) Start by multiplying the dividend and the divisor by 10 to remove the decimal in the divisor. This changes the problem to 10 / 2. We can now evaluate the division to give 10/2=5. In your specific case where you want to divide by 3.14, you would times both the dividend and the divisor by 100 to remove the decimal in the divisor. For example 6.28 / 3.14 = 628 / 314 = 2
Although the model's simplicity can be regarded as one of its major strengths, in another sense this is its major drawback, as the purely quantitative model takes no account of qualitative factors such as industry trends or management strategy. For example, even in a highly cash-generative company, near-future dividend payouts could be capped by management's strategy of retaining cash to fund a likely future investment. The simplicity of the model affords no flexibility to take into account projected changes in the rate of future dividend growth. The calculation relies on the assumption that future dividends will grow at a constant rate in perpetuity, taking no account of the possibility that rapid near-term growth could be offset by slower growth further into the future. This limitation makes the Gordon growth model less suitable for use in rapidly growing industries with less predictable dividend patterns, such as software or mobile telecommunications. Its use is typically more appropriate in relatively mature industries or stock-market indices where companies demonstrate more stable and predictable dividend growth patterns.

Dividend payments are certainly not guaranteed as we saw in 2009, when hundreds of companies reduced and even eliminated their dividends to investors. Dividends come from net income of a company less any retained earnings and reinvested capital. Since investors seek stable and growing dividends, companies are often reluctant to make frequent changes in the dividend payout policy if the underlying business cannot support such a change throughout a variety of economic conditions.
Investors in the bond market should be concerned about changes in interest rates because they directly affect the value of their bond investments. When interest rates rise, bond prices typically fall, and vice versa. This means that investors may experience losses if they need to sell their bonds before maturity. Additionally, changes in interest rates can impact the overall return on investment for bondholders, as higher rates can lead to lower yields on existing bonds. Therefore, investors need to closely monitor interest rate movements and consider adjusting their investment strategies accordingly.
The dividend yield is the ratio of the annual dividend amount to the current price of the stock. So if the dividend is $1 and the current price is $50, the yield is 2 percent ($1/$50). But when the stock changes price the current dividend changes accordingly.
