6. Consider the following premerger information about Firm A and Firm B:

	Firm A	Firm B
Total earnings	$2,300	$700
Shares outstanding	1,000	200
Price per share	$25	$29

Assume that Firm A acquires Firm B via an exchange of stock at a price of $31 for each share of B's stock. Both A and B have no debt outstanding.

a. What will the earnings per share, EPS, of Firm A be after the merger?

b. What will Firm A's price per share be after the merger if the market incorrectly analyzes this reported earnings growth (i.e., the price-earnings ratio does not change)?

c. What will the price-earnings ratio of the postmerger firm be if the market correctly analyzes the transaction?

d. If there are no synergy gains, what will the share price of A be after the merger?

e. What will the price-earnings ratio be?

f. What does your answer for the share price tell you about the amount A bid for B? Was it too high or too low?
