Answering these questions helps companies and shareholders to find that whether these plans can increase their value and wealth or not.
In this research Free cash flows and Tobin’s Q ratio criteria are used for performance evaluation. For this purpose data of 112 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange from 2006 to 2011 was studied. Hypothesis testing analysis was conducted by the use of statistical methods of Pearson’s correlation analysis, regression and variance analysis. The findings show that there is a positive and significant relation between management compensation and both free cash flows and Tobin’s Q ratio. Therefore increase in management compensation leads to improvement of a company’s performance, but percentage of board of directors’share has no significant relation with none of Free cash flow and Tobin’s Q ratio.
