You work for a leveraged buyout firm and are evaluating a potential buyout of UnderWater Company.​ UnderWater's stock price is $
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

a. The shareholders will want to tender their shares.

c.  The gain will be $25.31 million – $23.44 million = $1.87 million.

Explanation:

a. The value of the firm is 1.25 million shares* 15= $18.75 million.

Increase in value, 18.75*135% = $25.31 million, so now this is the value of the firm

If 50% of the shares are bought for $18.75 Million, you will buy 0.625 million shares, so the total amount that will be paid is $11.72 million.

Now, the money against shares will be borrowed as collateral. This means that the new value of the equity will be $25.31 million – $11.72 million = 13.59 million.

1.25 million shares are there so now the price of the share will be  =  $10.87 million ($13.59 million/$1.25 million = $ 10.87 million).

b.The price of the shares has decreased from $13.59 to $10.87 after the tender offer, everyone will want to tender their shares for $18.75.

c. Supposing everyone tenders the shares and you will buy at $18.75 per share, you will pay $23.44 (18.75 per share *1.25 million shares) to acquire the company and it will be worth $25.31 million.

The gain will be $25.31 million – $23.44 million = $1.87 million.

You are a self-employed profit-maximizing consultant specializing in monopolies. Five firms are currently seeking your advice, a
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The answer is option A) The short run recommendation for a monopolistic firm is to remain at the current output level

Explanation:

In the short run, monopolistic firms could record losses but still continue to run in anticipation of a sustainable profit in the long run.

A self-employed profit-maximizing consultant specializing in monopolies understands that the short run losses experienced in a monopoly is also an advantage in that it reduces the participation of more players in the same industry/ market segment.

The best recommendation would be to remain at the current output level during the short run to cut losses, sustain patronage and then develop a long term strategy that will guarantee profitability in the long run.
