critical elements

Hello Adongo,

Thank you for looking at the below!

I am struggling with this assignment, I am unable to determine the below questions based off the attached 10K.  I have also attached a spreadsheet from another answer to a part of this question (tab 2 on the excel sheet) as well as the actual assignment.  I need this ASAP!  Any help would be appreciated and also explanations to the answers too, so I can understand it

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

II. Stock Valuation

A. Based on the figures provided, calculate each of the following:

1. The new dividend yield if the company increased its dividend per share by 1.75

2. The dividend yield if the firm doubled its outstanding shares

3. The rate of return on equity (i.e., the cost of stock) based on the new dividend yield you calculated above

B. What effect would you expect each of the calculations you performed to have in terms of shareholder value? In other words, suppose the company’s goal is to maximize shareholder value. How will each of the situations support or inhibit that goal? Be sure to justify your reasoning.

C. To what extent do you feel the company’s dividend policies support or hinder their strategies? For example, if the company is attempting togrow, are they retaining and reinvesting their earnings rather than distributing them to investors through dividends? Be sure to substantiate yourclaims.

III. Bond Issuance

A. Assuming this company already has bonds outstanding, calculate the following:

1. The new value of the bond if overall rates in the market increased by 5%

2. The new value of the bond if overall rates in the market decreased by 5%

3. The value of the bond if overall rates in the market stayed exactly the same

B. What effect would you expect each of the calculations you performed to have in terms of the company’s decision to raise capital in this manner?In other words, for each situation, would you consider bond valuation to be a viable option for increasing capital? Be sure to justify yourreasoning.

C. To what extent do you feel the company’s bond issuance policies support or hinder their strategies? For example, if the company is attempting tofund operating expenses, refinance old debt, or change its capital structure, are they issuing sufficient bonds to achieve these goals? Be sure tosubstantiate your claims.

TARGET MARKET

Food industry is one of the largest and the most thriving business in our soils. Many companies have tried to invest in parts of the food industry in USA like the ice cream industry, the pizza industry, packed lunch, coffee and many other fields and has proved as one of the best field to invest in.

USA in a great country with a great events culture and occasions. As usual man cannot live without food and energy to do all the stuffs that he does. We also are not in the tendency of carrying packed food as most people describe it as tedious and rather than they prefer packed buying food and going to reastraunts rather than the torture of carrying packed food. This creates a perfect ready market for the business without much strain.

COMPETITION

Most of the food industries have already been covered partially and others have been colonized by certain companies. Some include the dicky dee which is a mobile vendor of ice cream, AA catering truck and Food Cart USA – Miami which all deal with custom foods depending on the order including the ones mentioned above. The establishment is meant to have a broad field of business cooking and selling all sorts of foods custom based on the foods that have been ordered but if it’s a open day then all foods are to be made and cooked on order and study of the demand within the population. This will serve the business well in terms of avoiding wastage, ensuring that all foods sold have to be fresh and satisfy the customers needs and taste.

In terms of dealing with competition with the current existing mobile kitchens there are many laid up strategies that will be mentioned below to ensure superiority against all the others. Of them include:

Massive advertisement as the major marketing strategy.

Social media is one of the main platforms that is targeted, our target market is the young and energetic occasions loving generation. Social media like the facebook, twitter, linden, whats app and other social platforms which many people currently spend most of their days on will serve as a perfect place to make our advertisements. Television and popular sites can also be a good platform without forgetting google where we can pay for pop up advertisements making sure that each and every internet user knows about the new mobile kitchen and the variety of services that we give.

Employing qualified chefs in the kitchen

For quality taste and foods qualified chefs with good background achievements will be employed. This will make sure that each and every food delivered is a master piece with a quality taste that every one will keep coming back.

Maintaining quality public relationship with the customers

There shall be a full time timeline to communicate with the customers and a hot line so that each and every information that anyone intends for the company is received and handled with seriousness without any neglect or discrimination. First impression when a customer first encounter with our customer makes a good reflection of the services that we offer and the great value and friendship we have for the society.

Observing the law
