Consider Commerce Clause, Dormant Commerce Clause, Supremacy & Preemption legal theory Golden is a privately-owned company engaged in the business of disposing toxic waste generated by mining companies. Golden operates pursuant to a license issued by the state of Alpha. This license authorizes Golden to contract with miners to provide the following services: (i) collection of toxic waste at mine sites, and (ii) transportation of that waste to Golden's disposal station, which is in Alpha, three miles from the border with the state of Beta. In accordance with the authority granted by its license for the past 10 years Golden has contracted to provide services to miners in Alpha. Recently, Golden expanded its business to serve the miners in Beta and emerging battery businesses across the border in Beta. Shortly after Golden extended its services to the Beta miners and plants, the residents of the town from which the toxic waste disposal station operates started complaining about the rash of skin irritations, and increased illness. Prior to Golden's expansion of service to the State of Beta miners and the battery business, the U.S. Congress has passed legislation promulgating standards for safe disposal of toxic materials including batteries. The residents petitioned the State of Alpha to close Golden's disposal station. Golden objected. The Commissioner held open hearings. Following the hearings, the state issued an order that the use of Golden's disposal station would be limited to toxic waste from Alpha miners only. The Beta miners and battery businesses were barred from disposing of their toxic waste through Golden. Both Golden and the State of Beta have filed suit against State of Alpha seeking to rescind the order. Develop an IRAC for the constitutional legal issues.

​(Divisional costs of capital and investment decisions​) In May of this​ year, Newcastle Mfg.​ Company's capital investment review committee received two major investment proposals. One of the proposals was put forth by the​ firm's domestic manufacturing​ division, and the other came from the​ firm's distribution company. Both proposals promise a return on invested capital to approximately 14 percent. In the​ past, Newcastle has used a single​ firm-wide cost of capital to evaluate new investments. ​However, managers have long recognized that the manufacturing division is significantly more risky than the distribution division. In​ fact, comparable firms in the manufacturing division have equity betas of about 1.6​, whereas distribution companies typically have equity betas of only 1.2. Given the size of the two​ proposals, Newcastle's management feels it can undertake only​ one, so it wants to be sure that it is taking on the more promising investment. Given the importance of getting the cost of capital estimate as close to correct as​ possible, the​ firm's chief financial officer has asked you to prepare cost of capital estimates for each of the two divisions. The requisite information needed to accomplish your task​ follows:

: The cost of debt financing is 11 percent before a marginal tax rate of 26 percent. You may assume this cost of debt is after any flotation costs the firm might incur.
:The​ risk-free rate of interest on​ long-term U.S. Treasury bonds is currently 6.2 ​percent, and the​ market-risk premium has averaged 4.9 percent over the past several years. : Both divisions adhere to target debt ratios of 70 percent.
: The firm has sufficient internally generated funds such that no new stock will have to be sold to raise equity financing.

a. Estimate the divisional costs of capital for the manufacturing and distribution divisions.

b. Which of the two projects should the firm undertake​ (assuming it cannot do both due to labor and other nonfinancial​ restraints)? Discuss.
