Fujita, Incorporated, has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $$200,000.$ Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $$12,000$ if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be $12$ percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be $25$ percent lower.
