| Summary: | Acquisition is the purchase of the shares or undertaking of a company in exchange for cash, shares or other securities of the acquiring company, or partly for cash and shares or other securities. Acquisition is made with reasons or objectives which are
expected to be achieved by the acquiring company. These
objectives will bring financial effects to the acquiring
company,
Financial ratios can be used as tools for measuring and
analysing the financial effects of the acquisition by
comparing the acquiring company's pre and post acquisition
financial ratios.
The degree of success of the quantitative reasons or
objectives—of the acquiring company upon the acquisition can
be measured by relating the reasons and the results of the
financial ratios. |
