Guardians is a newly public firm with $10$ million shares outstanding. You are doing a valuation of

Guardians, using the DCF method. You estimate its free cash flow next year to be $$20$ million $20,000,000)$ and you

expect the firm's free cash flows to grow by $2\%$ per year in all future years. Because the firm has only been listed

you do have an estimate of the equity beta of Tankees, another firm in the same industry. Tankees has an equity

beta of $1\mathrm{.}60.$ Tankees has a Debt$/$Equity ratio of $1\mathrm{.}4,$ but Guardians has a Debt$/$Equity ratio of only $0\mathrm{.}40.$

Both Guardians and Tankees pay corporate income taxes at the same rate of $25\%.$

The risk$-$free rate $=3\mathrm{.}0\%$; the return on the market portfolio $=10\%$; the interest rate on Guardian's debt $=6\mathrm{.}0\%.$
