M & As - Valuations - Costs - III

This is an area in which strategic, managerial, operational sides' effects are mostly either unconsidered or underestimated.

M & As - Valuations - Costs - II

There is a kind of resource allocation between the two as each is borne by different sides of the transaction.

"M&A"ed having additional sides such as rise in share price for a listed company gets another resource allocation, which is the public.

 I think discount rate should be adjusted to reflect these additional sides.

M & As - Valuations - Costs

CIMA's "Financial Management" magazine wrote about the biggest M & A deals over the decade covering the time between 2002 - 2012 with an interesting point: "Costs of M & As exceed their valuations."

What method of valuation is used? NPV as the method used in common comes to mind; Next thing, which comes is the %  used for present value.

And  Keynes, as the best economist ever born. CORRECTION AS OF 11/04/2013:
Keynes's two quotes makes his world view to look one of the best. His economic policies are inefficiency, lack of competency and disastrous for 21st century.
