FIN 461 Assignment #3 – Cost of Equity using CAPM with Various Inputs Due Date: 1/27/23 Assignment Estimate the cost of equity for three restaurant companies – SHAK, CMG, and WING using the CAPM. In doing so, calculate the cost of equity four different ways for each company: You should use Bloomberg to collect data, however do not use Bloomberg’s cost of capital screen. I want you to calculate these in a spreadsheet using these assumptions: Use CAPM. Use Bloomberg function BETA using period = monthly, range = last 5 years (60 observations), and relative index = (SPX Index/MXWO Index) Use the adjusted beta. Assume market risk premium of 5.0% for both market indexes. Answer the following questions: 1.) What is cost of equity for each company using method 1. (Attachment #1) 2.) What is cost of equity for each company using method 2 (Attachment #1) 3.) What is cost of equity for each company using method 3. (Attachment #2) 4.) What is cost of equity for each company using method 4 (Attachment #2) 5.) Which beta (SPX or MXWO) better fits each company? Indicate this somehow on Attachments #1 and #2. 6.) Looking forward, it is uncertain which direction the US economy is going to go. The Federal Reserve pushed interest rates to historic lows and is now increasing rates along with quantitative tightening. Using SHAK cost of equity from methods 1 & 2, what is the effect on SHAK’s cost of equity of the Fed letting the 10-year US Treasury rise +3.00% from where it is now in increments of 0.25%? Create a one-way data table with two outputs. (Attachment #3) What to turn in 1-page Executive Summary – Write up your results, answer questions, and refer to attachments.
