part (a) – i my workings were correct …so all good part (b) – i calculated the 30% and the 50% premiums – all good part (c) – and here i got stuck and i am thinking the following:
the additional value created (equity) = 503m
so, i am saying to myself….Makonis has to pay 30% of 480 PLUS 480 so thats 480+144=624m so the project is really not worth it.
i mean.. if i am buying something, i just dont pay the profit, i pay the cost+profit so why is Mak only paying 144m??
The answer could be worded a bit better, but the question asks how much extra cash will be needed. The extra cash will be the extra premium which is the difference between the two premiums. (It is not asking how much cash will be paid to them in total)
