Abstract
The response and sensitivity of enterprises with different attributes to internal and external environmental factors are different. Therefore, the capital structure of enterprises often does not conform to the target capital structure under the trade-off theory. Through paired T-test on the data of state-owned enterprises and non-state-owned enterprises, state-owned transnational enterprises and non-transnational state-owned enterprises, this paper finds that before 2015, due to the influence of different enterprise attributes, the capital structure of enterprises is obviously different, and then converges.
