    I dint submit my project due to fear, since the company I’ve chosen doesn’t have much details regarding the acquisition, especially because the acquired company isnt listed and so financial consequences are difficult to analyse.

    I wanted to know if i can select M&As that have taken place before 3 years , for eg: 2015 acquisitions. Because i read that the companies must be chosen within a time frame of previous three years , but for acquisitions, the consequences will only be visible in the longer term , hence I find it difficult to select a company within the time frame of 3 years.
    Please help?

    Hi Trephena,

    I have chosen this topic because i wanted to do something different from the topic 8 that all my teammates have chosen , I wanted to know if its really possible to pass this topic with only secondary sources of information.

    Since i have chosen Amazon as my acquirer company, there are alot of information available and the result of the acquisition is not so great since it has been only 2 years now.

    I have chosen SWOT , Force Field analysis and ratio analysis as my business models.
    However i feel the models have repetitive conclusions , please help guide me!

    Thank you,
    Shreya

    Purchasing the asset would incur one off costs , this will have a significant change in the cash , depending on the value of the asset purchased.
    Most assets that can be leased are usually expensive, Eg: land , equipment etc.
    It would be better to lease them by paying small amounts over the period of use rather than paying the whole cost at once.This will help retain cash in the company.

    The MCQs were good i think , all straight forward questions.
    But the section B question 3 on IHT , i had to guess the last MCQ.
    Section C was difficult for me.
