Can you help to solve this problem? thanks 
Assume: Volatility = 25% for Hilton and Starwood, r = 6%, S(HLT)=31.81 (price on 10/31: $30.81; the text on the stock valuation of $27.73 refers to this price and can be ignored), S(HOT) = $52.10 (down from $54.25 on 10/31, and from $57.263 earlier). Both market prices given here are after the transaction is announced. They incorporate the information about the value of the transaction including the value synergy and the derivatives offered. No dividend is paid on these stocks. Assume that ITT SHs vote is expected 60 days from now. If Starwood's offer is supported, the deal will be completed 20 days after that, and on that day Starwood will pay for the deal. If Hilton's offer is supported, the merger is completed 10 days after SHs' vote. Then, and cash part will be paid and the count for the contingent value stock begins. The stock portion + one CVR against each share of Hilton that is given will be paid 90 days after cash is paid. The year has 365 days. Assume for simplicity that for each bidder, the transaction is certain to go through. Use post-announcement prices. Assume no transaction costs. Calculate the value of each offer.
