Since I am starting this project you can answer the question #1. Legal implications.

For this group activity, you and your group will have three weeks to complete a presentation based on the following case study and research you will conduct on the regulatory rules applying to insider trading. Although you and your team may choose any presentation application or software, Microsoft PowerPoint is suggested for this activity.

Research and Scenario

First, visit the following websites on insider trading:

· Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website regarding insider trading.

· SEC enforcement actions (insider trading cases)

These websites will help you become familiar with the general basics of the regulatory rules applying to insider trading. You are not expected to become an expert on this topic. Apply these rules to the facts of this very brief case:

Someone you know has knowledge of an impending merger between two companies. The combination of the two firms will certainly change the market dynamics of the industry. Moreover, owners of stock in both companies will greatly benefit once the news of the merger is publicly announced.

Project Requirements

Your presentation must consist of 6 to 7 slides that are clear, legible and address the following:

· Discuss the general basics of the regulatory rules applying to insider trading and its implications and address the following:

1. Legal implications

2. Ethical implications

3. Economic-social implications

· You must include a title slide in addition to the six to seven slides. The title page must include:

1. The title of the project

2. The names of the group members

3. The area where the team member provided initiative (contributed to the project).

· Each slide will include a bulleted list highlighting important aspects of your research.

1. Details of your research and citations will be presented in the notes section of each slide in the presentation.

Presentations will be assessed on both content (how well the legal, ethical and economic-social issues are addressed), as well as organization and grammar. Your presentation content must look professional and adhere to the standard presentation format. Therefore, check all content for grammar, spelling and to ensure that you have properly cited all sources used in the creation of the presentation using APA format. In other words, although your notes are cited, the slides are not cited. As a group, keep in mind the purpose of a presentation as it applies to an audience.

Your Discussion should be a minimum of 300 words in length and not more than 450 words. Please include a word count. Following the APA standard, use references and in-text citations for the textbook and any other sources. Include at least 2 references and conclusion.

For this week's Discussion, provide an answer to the case study questions with a recommendation.

Case Study:

The Exceptional Service Grading Company requires a capital infusion of $500,000. It is currently a closely held corporation with less than 25 shareholders. Although the shareholders are not all related to each other, they all know each other, and they view the business as a family business. The financial statements should be familiar to you because you performed a basic financial analysis of the company in Unit 1 of this course.

Several alternatives are available to the company, consisting of the following:

· Obtain private debt financing

· Seek out a private investor(s) who would be willing to share ownership (private transfer of partial ownership)

· Seek out offers for a private buy-out (private transfer of entire ownership)

· Issue public debt (corporate bonds)

· Issue public common stock (public equity offering)

Briefly discuss each alternative and include implications to the company’s capital structure and cost of capital, if any. Considering the size of the investment ($500,000 infusion), provide a conclusion on how it might impact the financial statement reviewed in Unit 1. No calculations are required.

3. Financial Management. Written Assignment Unit 7.

Submit a written paper which is at 2-3 pages in length, exclusive of the reference page. The Abstract is not required or needed Papers must be double spaced in Times New Roman font (or its equivalent) which is no greater than 12 points in size. The paper should cite at least three sources independent of the textbooks.

In this paper, please discuss the following case study. In doing so, explain your approach to the problem, support your approach with references, and execute your approach. Provide an answer to the case study’s question with a recommendation.

Case Study:

The Comic Book Publication Group (CBPG) specializes in creating, illustrating, writing, and printing various publications. It is a small but publicly traded corporation. CBPG currently has a capital structure of $12 million in bonds that pay a 5% coupon, $5 million in preferred stock with a par value of $35 per share and an annual dividend of $1.75 per share. The company has common stock with a book value of $6 million. The cost of capital associated with the common stock is 10%. The marginal tax rate for the firm is 33%.

The management of the company wishes to acquire additional capital for operations purposes. The chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO) agree that another public debt offering (corporate bonds) in the amount of $10 million would suffice. They believe that due to favorable interest rates, the company could issue the bonds at par with a 4% coupon.

Before the Board of Directors convenes to discuss the debt Initial Public Offering (IPO), the CFO wants to provide some data for the board of directors’ meeting notebooks. One point of the analysis is to evaluate the debt offering’s impact on the company’s cost of capital. To do this:
