Questions need to be answered using Starbucks.

The second interim report should build on the first interim report and also include #6, 7, 8, and 9 detailed on the syllabus:

6. Perform common size analysis. What does this analysis tell you about your company? Are there any trends apparent with either the industry or your firm?

7. Use the extended DuPont equation to provide a summary and overview of your firm's financial condition.

8. Calculate the cost of each capital component, after-tax cost of debt, cost of preferred, and cost of equity with the DCF method and CAPM method.

9. What do you estimate the company's WACC?

Be sure to use calculations for 3 years, using Excel.Use real numbers from the financials, not reported ratios provided by online and other sources.Show the source of the numbers and include the balance sheet and income statement on the same worksheet you use for calculations.

Each group member must assume responsibility for specific portions of the report and specific calculations/analysis for either Interim Report 1 or Interim Report 2 or both.All group members are responsible for proofing and editing the report.

I suggest you establish firm deadlines for completing responsibilities.The deadlines should be several days before the due date of the report to allow time for all group members to review the report prior to submission.
