Summary: This chapter analyzes the errors-in-variables problems in a simultaneous equation estimation in dividend and investment decisions. We first investigate the effects of measurement errors in exogenous variables on the estimation of a just-identified or an over-identified simultaneous equations system. The impacts of measurement errors on the estimation of structural parameters are discussed. Moreover, we use a simultaneous system in terms of dividend and investment policies to illustrate how theoretically the unknown variance of measurement errors can be identified by the over-identified information. Finally, we summarize the findings.
