Harrison Corporation is interested in acquiring Van Buren Corporation. Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 3% and the market risk premium is 6%.

Harrison also plans to increase the debt ratio of what would be its Van Buren subsidiary - the effect of this would be to raise Van Buren's beta to 1.2. What is the per-share value of Van Buren to Harrison Corporation? Round your answer to the nearest cent.
