The standard deviation of the returns on the market portfolio is 20 percent, and the expected market risk premium is 8.5 percent. The company has bonds outstanding with a total market value of $55.1 million and a yield to maturity of 7.5 percent. The company also has 4.60 million shares of common stock outstanding, each selling for $30. The company's CEO considers the current debt-equity ratio optimal. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent, and Treasury bills currently yield 4.4 percent. The company is considering the purchase of additional equipment that would cost $42.1 million. The expected unlevered cash flows from the equipment are $11.9 million per year for five years. Purchasing the equipment will not change the risk level of the company.
