Working in a small team, select three publicly traded companies.

Visit each firm’s website. Most have a section devoted to information for investors. Review each firm’s dividend policy. Does the company pay dividends? If so, when did it begin paying dividends? Have dividends increased each year?

Or have they fluctuated from year to year? Is the company currently repurchasing shares? Has it done so in the past?

Prepare a report summarizing your findings.
