Topic: Cost of Capital, Capital Structure, and Capital Budgeting Analysis

In this project, you are supposed to be a financial manager working for a big corporation and you have to apply the knowledge obtained from the our Finance 607 course to determine the cost of debt, cost of preferred stock, cost of common equity, capital structure, and the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for a publicly-traded company of your choice.

A. Choosing a Company and Team: Please form your own teams and then choose a publically US traded company. (hint: try finance.yahoo.com ) .

B. Obtain approval from the instructor for your specific stock, before working on this project- post on the Team Discussion board and email the instructor to verify that you were awarded that company/stock to analyze.
Be sure to thoroughly understand the company. The purpose of this assignment is for the team to utilize many of the concepts presented in the text to analysis the company you pick. Group Discussion Threads for each Team will be reviewed for individual participation.

Presentation Guidelines (for Individual and Team Presentations)

Be sure you have an
introduction, an
analysis and a
conclusion even though this is a presentation and not a paper. The following describes how presentations will be graded. The questions and comments below are designed for you to read and consider before you finalize your presentation. Use APA in your Power Points and cite your sources and Wikipedia is still not a source. You need to compare and contrast your research to the three texts in the course and have at least three citations. Remember: This is designed to be a team project. Any member who does not contribute to the project is to not have their name on the Power Point or the Handout, nor are they to present. Each team member will evaluate their other team members at the end by emailing their team members participation to the instructor. .

Your presentations will answer the following issues (not necessarily in this order).
Does your presentation answer each of the questions assigned with your company? (Your audience will be checking of a list!)

Does each member of your team have a part in the presentation?
Is each of you listening when your team mates are presenting (if in class)?
Are you using active listening when other teams are presenting (if in class)?
Think deeply about not giving a book report but offering new and interesting information on how your assigned company connects with the material we have covered in class (discussions and the three texts).
Does your presentation have a clear beginning, middle and end?

Diagramming a Home Network

Diagramming your home network can be beneficial in various ways. It can help you determine what equipment to include and is present on your network. Diagramming your network can help determine the best layout for your equipment- for example, the best placement of your wireless router. It can be helpful to keep track of equipment and who is the primary user of the equipment–labeling who the devices belong to on a home network diagram can be very helpful for inventory and tracking purposes. Diagramming a home network can help you plan for potential changes you make to your network.
Home networks vary. Some rely heavily on Wi-Fi, and others primarily use hard-wired connections and little to no Wi-Fi. Some home networks use a cable modem to connect to the ISP (Internet service provider), while others may use a DSL modem. Fiber optics is becoming popular for a home network connection to the ISP. Whatever the case, the type of connection to your ISP will often determine things like the type of modem, router, and network cabling your home network will need. These characteristics, networking equipment, and items such as PCs, laptops, and IoT devices should all be documented on a network diagram.
You will use the information at this link to complete the discussion for this week. Make Use of: Home Network Setup Diagram https://www.makeuseof.com/home-network-setup-diagrams/

Answer the following:

Which of the six network diagram examples most closely represent your home network? What would you need to add/remove with this diagram to represent your home network?
What kind of labeling scheme would you use for your home network for each device? Provide an example of your naming scheme and discuss why you chose your naming scheme.
Choose and discuss the pros and cons listed for one of the example network setups. Do you agree with the pros and cons listed? Why or why not? What other pros and cons would you add and why?
