what is mergers and acqusitions? what is holding company?
Answer Posted / kalyani
A general term used to refer to the consolidation of
companies. A merger is a combination of two companies to
form a new company, while an acquisition is the purchase of
one company by another with no new company being formed.
Corporation that owns enough voting stock in another
corporation to influence its board of directors and
therefore to control its policies and management. A holding
company need not own a majority of the shares of its
subsidiaries or be engaged in similar activities. However,
to gain the benefits of tax consolidation, which include
tax-free dividends to the parent and the ability to share
operating losses, the holding company must own 80% or more
of the subsidiary's voting stock.

Occasionally it is said that issuing convertible bonds is better than issuing stock when the firms shares are undervalued. Suppose that the financial manager of Decent Furniture Company does in fact have inside information indicating that the decent stock price is too low. Decent furniture earnings will in fact be higher than investor’s expectations. Suppose further that the inside information cannot be released without giving away a valuable competitive secret. Clearly, selling shares at the present low price would harm Decent’s existing shareholders. Will they also lose if convertible bonds are issued? If they do lose in this case, is the loss more or less than it would be if common stock is issued? Now suppose that investors forecast earnings accurately, but still under value the stock because they overestimate Decent’s actual business risk. Does this change your answer to the questions posed in the preceding paragraph? Explain.
