Marpor Industries has no debt and expects to generate free cash flows of $14

million each year. Marpor believes that if it permanently increases its level of debt to $40

million, the risk of financial distress may cause it to lose some customers and receive less favorable terms from its suppliers. As a result, Marpor's expected free cash flows with debt will be only $13 million per year. Suppose Marpor's tax rate is 21%, the risk-free rate is 5%, the expected return of the market is 12%, and the beta of Marpor's free cash flows is 1.3

(with or without leverage).

a. Estimate Marpor's value without leverage.

b. Estimate Marpor's value with the new leverage.
