Course Scenario Oil Company X is a large oil refinery which has been expanding and taking on new investment projects. Recently, they have considered building a pipeline that stretches across the United States, from Canada to New Orleans. The Board is considering a proposal to increase their oil stores to better prepare for events that impact the market price of oil. They have asked you, as a member of the Cost Department, to determine events that effect the price of oil. They have requested a report explaining the various effects of these events on equilibrium price and quantity. Instructions As a cost analyst at your firm, you are asked to evaluate the effects that the following scenarios will have on the supply and demand of oil in the oil market. You will submit a PowerPoint document with any relevant graphs, including a narration of the shift changes as if you were explaining them to the Board. Using the drawing tools in PowerPoint, graph the changes to the supply and demand curves in response to the following events: Regulations are passed which restrict drilling in many areas of the U.S. to preserve protected areas. The U.S. has a large increase in birth rate and population. A recession occurs. There is an increase in availability of affordable, alternative energy sources. ***Only one curve (supply or demand) will shift for each of these events.*** Be sure to provide an explanation in the note to justify why the supply and/or demand curve would shift, the direction of the shift, and the new resulting equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Remember that you do not need to include actual figures, but rather explain if the price and quantity would be increasing or decreasing. You can use the drawing tools within PowerPoint to draw your graphs. Also, be sure to include the change in the resulting equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity if any curve shifts occur. Format your PowerPoint to include a title page, introduction, body slides, conclusion, and references. Remember to cite your sources using correct APA format, and also use correct grammar, spelling, and formatting.

Description Instructions For this milestone, submit a draft of the Stock Valuation and Bond Issuance sections of the final project, along with your supporting explanations. Base your calculations on the data provided in this case study. Be sure to substantiate your claims. Submit your calculations on the designated tab of the Final Project Student Workbook 2 and your supporting explanations as a Microsoft Word document. 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 to grow, are they retaining and reinvesting their earnings rather than distributing them to investors through dividends? Be sure to substantiate your claims. 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 your reasoning. 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 to fund operating expenses, refinance old debt, or change its capital structure, are they issuing sufficient bonds to achieve these goals?
