Suppose EPS of A and B are Rs 2 and Rs 3 respectively. A wants to acquire B. Swap ratio-.5:1(1 sh of A for every 2 sh of B)
So wht. will be the equivalent EPS of B after merger. sh.cap. of A and B is 20000 and 30000 respectively.
I have solved in the foll. way.
shareholder of B earns rs3 for 1 share
so they will be earning Rs 6 for 2 shares.
therefore their equivalent EPS will be 6 in the post-merger .
One book has solved this in the foll. way.
Earings of A-40000 and B-90000
shares issued by A-15000.
total no. of shares of merged entity-35000
EPS of merged entity-130000/35000=3.7143
So equivalent EPS of B-3.7143X.5=1.8572
Now pl. tell me which approach is correct.

After merger there will be only one company, so where is the question of two EPS?
