    I do not understand how they came about with the gain for the share for share exchange

    Dentro share percentage gain under share-for-share offer
    [($3·644 x 3 – $4·50 x 2)/2]/$4·50 x 100% = 21·5%

    Are you sure you are asking about December 2013? There was no question with Dentro in it on the December 2013 exam.

    Currently each share is has a market value of $4.50.

    They get 3 shares for every 2 shares.
    The 3 shares are worth 3 x $3.644 The 2 shares are worth 2 x $4.50.
    So the gain made on every 2 shares is the difference.

    The gain per share is this divided by 2.

    The percentage gain is the gain per share divided by the current MV.
