Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (ASX: HVN)

The first ASX dividend share that could be in the buy zone is fellow retailer Harvey Norman.

Analysts at Goldman Sachs are positive on the company and have named it as a buy with a $4.80 price target.

The broker continues to believe that Harvey Norman is well-placed to defend its strong market position from online disruption thanks to its favourable customer demographics.

It expects this to support stronger than consensus earnings in FY 2023, which it feels means that Harvey Norman's shares are trading at an "attractive valuation."

As for dividends, Goldman is forecasting fully franked dividends per share of 38 cents in FY 2023 and 32 cents in FY 2024. Based on the current Harvey Norman share price of $4.38, this will mean yields of 8.7% and 7.3%, respectively.

Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG)

Another ASX dividend share that could be in the buy zone is investment bank Macquarie.

The team at Morgan Stanley is positive on Macquarie and has an overweight rating and $215.00 price target on the company's shares.

The broker likes Macquarie due to its commodities exposure. Macquarie expects the company to benefit from volatility in commodities markets and believes it will be supportive of its earnings and dividends

Speaking of which, the broker is expecting partially franked dividends of $5.60 per share in FY 2023 and $6.05 per share in FY 2024. Based on the current Macquarie share price of $179.28, this will mean yields of 3.1% and 3.4%, respectively.
