owner in.

Current market value of equity is $3,428,000

You are choosing to flow one of these companies through your
respected investment company: JITV. You invest money into JITV,
which will then be used to purchase 8% of one of the companies. So
far, only $250,000 has been put into JITV. If JITV needs extra
funding for the investment, the Bank of Bakersville is available
for borrowing money at a rate of 4.5%. JITV is currently in the 17%
marginal tax bracket. The beta for JITV is 1.45.
As of right now, the 90-day Treasury Bill rate is 0.25%, the
5-Year Treasury rate is 1.75%, and the 10-Year Treasury rate is

year.
