For this purpose, the data of 119 companies accepted in the Tehran Stock Exchange between 1390 To 1396 has been reviewed. Finally, regression models were used to investigate each of the hypotheses. Based on the type of estimation method used in the F lemmer and Hausman tests, the research models were estimated and the estimated results for each model were analyzed.
