{"product_id":"2940015830279","title":"Merger \u0026 Acquisition Valuation and Structuring 2nd Edition","description":"In a field with no shortage of authoritative writings, this book has all the elements of a standout.  Whether new to the field of mergers \u0026amp; acquisitions, or a seasoned professional, the reader will readily embrace the approach and style that the author has adopted.  Without sacrificing accuracy and completeness, complex concepts and relationships have been reduced to a highly understandable state.  Through the liberal use of skillfully constructed illustrations, and through the employment of an outline format, the reader is brought along step-by-step to an integrated understanding of the tax, accounting, and financial considerations at play in mergers \u0026amp; acquisitions.  The author has demystified several subjects that for years have vexed the finance organizations of companies large and small alike.  These include: the value\/earnings relationship; the estimation of shareholder expectations; and the creation and calibration of shareholder wealth.  The chapter on the valuation of international transactions is an unexpected bonus that might alone be worth the “price of admission”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e   I heartily recommend this book to everyone whose livelihood and fortunes stand to be touched by the subject of valuation and transaction structuring.  It is a book that belongs in the library of every corporate development professional, a book that prospective buyers and sellers can ill afford not to read.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e                                                           Pierce J.
