Answer to Question 1

Small start-up companies may choose to take the profit and use it to reinvest in the company rather than pay it out as dividends. This can be a cheaper way of borrowing financial capital versus borrowing from banks. Investors are likely to be happy with this arrangement is they believe that the company can make a higher rate of return on the profit than the investors could on their own in an alternative use.
