<br/><br/> ABSTRACT<br/>This study examined CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND CORPORATE PERFORMANCE OF<br/>CONSUMER GOODS FIRMS IN NIGERIA. Secondary data based on extracts from annual report<br/>and accounts of selected consumer goods firms listed on the Nigeria stock exchange market was<br/>used in this study. Multiple regression method was used to analyse the relationships between the<br/>dependent and independent variable. The model was estimated using E-view packages (version 7.0). Findings from the analysis revealed that capital structure has significant impact on performance of<br/>consumer goods firms in Nigeria. This study recommends that government should create an<br/>enabling environment so that businesses can thrive and thus increase firm's performance level. This<br/>is evident in the fact that macroeconomic variables positively affect the performances of most firms<br/>in Nigeria<br/>Keywords: Multiple Regression, Capital Structure, Corporate Performance Management
