A company has a single zero coupon bond outstanding which matures in 10 years with a market value of $25m. The current value of the company's assets is $21m, and the standard deviation of the return on the firm's assets is 47 percent per year. The risk free rate is 6 percent per year, compounded continuously.

Clearly identify the parameters of the model. Certain parameters are keys to the problem and thus carry significantly higher weights than others.}
