Hi John, Ba was calculated with weighted Ba from both companies. but when you calculate Be you only use Nairobi's equity and debt exclude Delhi's, why? Shouldn't it be enlarged company with both equities? 0.87=225/225+80(1-30%). Again when you calculate WACC, you only use Nariobi's data. Thanks.

No - the new company will only have Nairobi's equity (Delhi will no longer exist :-) ) and the only debt will be that of Nairobi.
