The firm's EBIT is expected to remain constant at $2,600,000 per year in the
future. All net income is paid out as dividends and the firm can borrow at a
constant 9% (regardless of the level of debt). If the firm sells debt, it uses its
proceeds to buy back ordinary shares, leaving the value of the firm's assets
constant. If no debts is used, the required return on equity is 13%.
