    Hi John

    In the question Pursuit Co, we were asked

    whether it would be beneficial to the

    shareholders. I thought it was only going to be

    equity values i.e.

    0.5%*189,169,000 –

    [(0.5%*140,000,000)+(0.9%*40,095,000)]

    However the total market value was used. Can

    you please explain why? Thanks

    In future please say which exam the question comes from – I can’t remember the name of every question in every exam 🙂

    The whole of any gain in market value will always go to the equity – debt does not make a gain.
    What you are suggesting would be sharing the gain between the equity and the debt, which is not the case.
