Ask the Tutor ACCA AFM

Cigno & Anatra Co

NNicholas8y ago
Dear Sir, In the Sep/Dec2015 paper Q1, the value attributable to Anatra's shareholders is the MV of equity, debt and the premium. Why would the MV of debt be included in this calculation? Wouldn't the debt still be there after the acquisition?

The 128M is the difference between the total value of the company before and after, and this increase 'belongs' to the shareholders. (They both include the debt, so if you want subtract the debt from both and the difference (going to equity) is till 128M)
