[Q14-17] Your firm has a free cash flow of $300 at year 1, $360
at year 2, and $864 at year 3. After three years, the firm will
cease to exist. As of today (i.e. at year 0), the firm is partially
financed with a 1-year maturity debt, whose face value is $660 and
interest rate is 10%. After the debt matures at year 1, the firm
will not issue any more debt and will remain unlevered. Assume that
the firm’s unlevered cost of capital is 20%, and the firm’s cost of
debt is identical to the interest rate on the debt (i.e. 10%). The
corporate tax rate is 40%.
