Both Vandell and Hastings pay a 35% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 6% and the market risk premium is 5%.

Hastings plans to assume Vandell's $9.75 million in debt (which has an 7.1% interest rate) and raise additional debt financing at the time of the acquisition.
