Why or why not and should our given assets impact this decision?
In
our economic environment, should we issue bonds, common stock, or
preferred stock? What would be some pros and cons?

outstanding common stock? What market conditions would make this a good
move; what might be some pros and cons?
Should
we issue a dividend, or should we retain cash in the company for future
opportunities? How might this impact future growth? Are we obligated to
pay our shareholders a dividend?
