    When calculating the synergy benefits, do we take the,
    – MV of debt and equity?
    Or
    – MV of equity only?

    In Chikepe questions, they took only the MV of equity but in Pursuit, they used MV of debt + equity?

    It depends on the information provided in the question.

    Any benefits due to synergy will increase the total MV of the company (equity + debt), but these benefits will only go to the equity (the debt itself does not get the benefit).
