Profit Distribution for Mid-sized Companies in Mozambique under Inflation Conditions

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to disclose the basic conceptual elements of distribution under inflation conditions for mid-sized Mozambican companies without a significant negative impact on equity. The procedure for profit distribution in a rampant inflation scenario was evaluated as a way to prevent undercapitalization of the company. This study was based on the premises of recognition of inflation by financial information and bankruptcy prediction, according to the Altman Z-Score model for profit distribution, in compliance with the legal status of the partnership.
