Answer:

(a) The stock price of Harrods be after the acquisition is £ 31.45

(b) The exchange ratio between the two stocks would be 0.8550

Explanation:

Harrods PLC has a market value of £139 million and 5 million shares outstanding.

Selfridge Department Store has a market value of £41 million and 2 million shares outstanding.

a)  If Harrods offers 1.2 million shares of its stock in exchange for the 2 million shares of Selfridge

Shares outstanding = 5 + 1.2 = 6.2 million

Stock price = £ 195 million ÷ 6.2 million = £ 31.45

b)  alpha × 195 = 51

alpha = £51  million ÷ £195 million

= 26.15%

(195 ÷ ( 5 +X ) ) × X = 51

51 (5+X) = 195X

255 + 51X = 195X

144X = 255

X = 1.77 million shares

Exchange ratio would be: 1.77 ÷ 2

= 0.8550

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: clear financial goals and expectations.  

Explanation:

To begin with, before a new product is developed a company must follow a precise protocol in which the marketing mix plan is already established and therefore once that the company states the 4Ps of their marketing mix, it establishes the features of the product including characteristics of what it will be and do; the target audience including the costumers' preferences, needs and wants; the distribution channels and the promotion strategy.

To continue, <u><em>the protocol must establishes clear financial goals and expectations</em></u> in order to know how much is available to spend and how much of time will it take to create the product and to obtain the return of investment as well. Therefore, once that the marketing mix is established, the company needs to have in mind their expectations and expenditures.
