MPS have negative relationship with ROE, EPS, inflation, interest rate and GDP while it shows statistically significant positive relationship with dividend per share. Furthermore, the regression model explains that the adjusted R-squared value is significant which cumulatively explained major portion of variation arising due to predictors. It also shows the fitness of applying the model for analysis with the F-significance value which is significantly. This means that the model represents to be fairly fitted model. The results of analysis answer the research questions and effectively achieve the main objective of the study.
