(2) The ROE has a negative and insignificant influence on the DPR which is indicated by the -0.009 and probability of 0781. (3) DER has a positive and significant influence on the DPR which is indicated by the value of 3.087 and the probability of 0.030. (4) The DPR has insignificant negative influence on the stock return this is demonstrated by value -0.004 and probability of 0.377.
