Assignment: Choose a publicly-traded firm and estimate its cost of capital, determine its capital structure and dividends. Discuss each of these – are they what you would expect, or do you find them surprising. Why? You may choose any publicly held firm for which you can obtain data.

You will need to explain what you did and why. The memo can be no longer than one, single-spaced standard page.
