Business Acquisitions

Use the Internet to research two publicly traded
U.S. companies and download their financial statements.
Assume that you are the CEO of one of the selected companies. You are responsible for gaining control over
the other company.
You have three choices, any of which you believe that the board of directors will support:
Choice 1: Your company acquires 35 percent of the voting stock of the target company.
Choice 2: Your company acquires 51 percent of the voting stock of the target company.
Choice 3: Your company acquires 100 percent of the voting stock of the target company.
Write a paper in which you:
Provide a brief background introduction to both the company that you are working for and the company you are
responsible for gaining control over.
Specify the overall manner in which the acquisition fits into your company’s strategic direction.
Identify at least three possible synergies that could occur as a result of the proposed acquisition.
Select two out of the three choices provided in the scenario and analyze the key accounting requirements for
each of the two choices that you selected.
Suggest one strategy with which you would prepare the financial statements for your company after the
acquisition under each of the two choices.
Select the choice that you consider to be the most advantageous to your company. Explain to the board of
directors at least three reasons why your selected choice is the most advantageous to the company.
Assume that two years after the acquisition, your board of directors wants to offer the shares back to the public
in hopes of making a large profit. Assume that in each of the two years your company and the target company
have had the same reported net income as they did in the year of acquisition. Determine the type of value (that
is, cost of fair value) that you would use to report the subsidiary’s net asset in the subsidiary’s financial
statements, which the company will distribute to the public with the public offering. Provide support for your
rationale.

Analysis on the Effects of Population Growth

Imagine you have been hired as a consultant for the United Nations. You have been asked to write an analysis
on how global population growth has caused the following problem and how it affects a developing country of
your choosing:
A growing global population that consumes natural resources is partially to blame for the release of
greenhouse gases since human consumption patterns lead to deforestation, soil erosion, and farming
(overturned dirt releases CO2). However, the critical issue is the burning of fossil fuels (hydrocarbons) such as
coal oil and natural gas to produce energy that is used for things like electricity production, and vehicle,
heating, and cooking fuels.
