Applying ACCURATE discount factors, I calculate the debt element to be $10,978,638 and equity as the balance of $1,021,362 I can't see how the solution figures have been arrived at unless it's another misprint. Sorry :-(

Sir please i dont understand your answer. i got the same figures with wxylhyljf. i used df 0.92 0.85 0.78

So did I - so then I used absolutely accurate discount factors rather than those that were given (to only 2 decimal places)
