Recently, though, capital costs have been declining, and the company has decided to look seriously at a major expansion program proposed by the marketing department. Assume that you are an assistant to Leigh Jones, the financial vice president. Your first task is to estimate Jana’s cost of capital. Jones has provided you with the following data, which she believes may be relevant to your task:The firm’s tax rate is 40%.The current price of Jana’s 12% coupon, semiannual payment, noncallable bonds with 15 years remaining to maturity is $1,153.72. Jana does not use short-term interest-bearing debt on a permanent basis. New bonds would be privately placed with no flotation cost.The current price of the firm’s 10%, $100 par value, quarterly dividend, perpetual preferred stock is $116.95. Jana would incur flotation costs equal to 5% of the proceeds on a new issue.Jana’s common stock is currently selling at $50 per share. Its last dividend was $3.12, and dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 5.8% in the foreseeable future. Jana’s beta is 1.2, the yield on T-bonds is 5.6%, and the market risk premium is estimated to be 6%. For the own-bond-yield-plus-judgmental-risk-premium approach, the firm uses a 3.2% risk premium.Jana’s target capital structure is 30% long-term debt, 10% preferred stock, and 60% common equity. To help you structure the task, Leigh Jones has asked you to answer the following questions. a. 1. What sources of capital should be included when you estimate Jana’s weighted average cost of capital?2. Should the component costs be figured on a before-tax or an after-tax basis?3. Should the costs be historical (embedded) costs or new (marginal) costs?b.What is the market interest rate on Jana’s debt, and what is the component cost of this debt for WACC purposes? c. 1. What is the firm’s cost of preferred stock?2. Jana’s preferred stock is riskier to investors than its debt, yet the preferred stock’s yield to investors is lower than the yield to maturity on the debt. Does this suggest that you have made a mistake? (Hint: Think about taxes.) d. 1. What are the two primary ways companies raise common equity?2. Why is there a cost associated with reinvested earnings?3. Jana doesn’t plan to issue new shares of common stock. Using the CAPM approach, what is Jana’s estimated cost of equity?

Recommended Report Format A) Executive Summary of one page. B) Discuss the internal (or company and employee benefits) of CSR and sustainability initiatives. Use the Dannon case as an example to illustrate the value of CSR programs, and explain why it was NOT their priority to advertise their CSR activities. Explain how a CSR strategy needs to “fit” a firm’s management culture. (Danon case is included as attached file) C) Discuss the emerging opportunities in the evolving “green market.” Cite strategies and opportunities. As part of this, summarize the Clorox case and discuss how they successfully developed green brands. Cite the benefits of these efforts on marketing, branding, and reputation enhancement. ( Clorox case is included as attached file) D) Briefly summarize FOR Apple CSR ( corporate social responsibility) report . Then critique that report. Explain how the firm defined their specific “responsibility” in the report and any shortcomings. Is the company doing enough? Is it effective and fully transparent in addressing all social responsibility concerns? What would you suggest that the company needs to do? Do not forget the benefits for both people and planet –sustainability is not just about money (or solely an instrumental benefit to the firm’s shareholders alone). Please find the CSR report for Apple in thier website.Please make sure there is no plagiarismThe Research has be 17 pagesThe professor is a tough grader so please make it well.Thank you!
