finance organization and long term planning

Assignment 1: Discussion—Finance Organization and Long-Term Planning

 

Considering Genesis’s aggressive growth plan, Sensible Essentials suggested that its client should broaden the scope of financing beyond short-term loans and consider long-term financing options. These options would greatly enhance the ability of the operations management team to fund the capital investments and growth in operating expenses. 

 

One option is selling more equity in the company. A public stock offering might be a possibility; however, a company as young and small as Genesis might be hard to value. Sensible Essentials believes that another private investor might require preferred stock dividends in order to mitigate some of the financial risk. Another option is a long-term bank loan.

 

Acting as the finance expert for Sensible Essentials, respond to the following:

 

Determine the cost of debt and equity for Genesis and its weighted average cost of capital. Go to www.yahoofinance.com and look under SEC filings. Use a US publicly traded company, such as Apple, Google, DuPont, etc.

Identify the sources of long-term financing for Genesis.

Analyze the potential costs and benefits of each option.

Explain how relative risk (from the investor’s perspective) impacts the cost of capital for Genesis.

Determine the cost of debt and equity for Genesis and its weighted average cost of capital.

Calculate the required rate of return for Genesis using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). What is the required return for Genesis shareholders?

Write your initial response in 5–7 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

 

By Saturday, May 24, 2014, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through Wednesday, May 28, 2014, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses. In your response, do the following:
