and its $2020$ depreciation expense will be $$65$ million. Barrington's $2020$ gross capital expenditures are expected to be $$110$ million and the change in its net operating

working capital for $2020$ will be $$30$ million. The firm's free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of $6\%$ annually. Assume that its free cash flow occurs at the

end of each year. The firm's weighted average cost of capital is $8\mathrm{.}1\%$; the market value of the company's debt is $$2\mathrm{.}45$ billion; and the company has $190$ million shares of
