| Notes: | 1. Professor's Beta estimates based on risk of investment (feel free to challenge this, or change it) |
| | 2. risk free rate based on 2013 data from https://tradingeconomics.com/lebanon/risk-premium-on-lending-prime-rate-minus-treasury-bill-rate-percent-wb-data.html |
| | 3. Since the relevant cost of equity in this situation seems to be the opportunity cost of equity reinvested into the business, Professor used annualized growth rate (2M to 25M over 20 years = 13.46%) Feel free to challenge this or change it if your team has a better estimate. |
| | 4. For cost of debt, Prof used the Lebanon bank lending rate from 2013 https://www.ceicdata.com/en/indicator/lebanon/bank-lending-rate |
