The structure of financing of the companies has been studied since the publication in 1958 of the famous article in that Modigliani and Miller defended that, under certain conditions, the level of leverage used by the companies would not have impact on its value. Of there for the current days, a significant number of academic works was published, allowing the development of several theories that try to explain that forms the companies look for its optimal level of indebtedness. Among those theories, they stand out pecking order and trade-off. The theory of the trade-off makes possible to discuss the counterbalancing of the effects of the taxes, deducible events and effects of costs of the financial difficulties in the capital structure. The theory of the pecking order proposes a hierarchization of the capital sources. This study has as reference the works accomplished by Fama and French (2002) accomplished with data of North American companies and by Brito and Silva (2003) accomplished with data of Brazilian companies. This work tested the forecasts of the trade-off and pecking order theories on indebtedness and payout, using the methodology of Fama and McBeth (1973). This work demonstrated that the Brazilian companies increased the remuneration goal, however they still distribute a small proportion of the profits, if compared to the American pattern, in spite of the Brazilian legislation to be quite favorable. The results indicate that the payout is negatively related with the investment opportunities and that the dividends don t suffer variation of short period to accommodate the investments, as it defends the theory of the pecking order. The profitability demonstrated to be relevant in the determination of the indebtedness politics, what indicates that the most lucrative companies are less indebted confirming the pecking order. Besides, the variable size showed to be significant in the indebtedness politics, what confirms the theories of the pecking order and trade-off.
