What’s the difference between Equity Value and Shareholders’ Equity?

Equity Value is the market value and Shareholders’ Equity is the book value. Equity Value can never be negative because shares outstanding and share prices can never be negative, whereas Shareholders’ Equity could be any value. For healthy companies, Equity Value usually far exceeds Shareholders’ Equity.

What is the angle formed by the hands of the clock when it is 1:45?

142.5 degrees. 

If we just think of the clock hour hand at 1 and the minute hand at the 45 position (near 9 o’clock), that is 120 degrees since they are 4 “numbers” apart, and each number on the clock represents 30 degrees (360/12). However, recall that the hour hand has already moved by the time the minute hand has reached the 45 position – it is now closer to 2 o’clock. 45 represent ¾ of an hour, so the hour hand will have moved ¾ of 30 degrees, or 22.5 degrees. If we add them together, we see that 120 + 22.5 = 142.5

You have a hose along with a 3 liter bucket and a 5 liter bucket. How do you get exactly 4 liters of water?

First, fill the 3 liter bucket and pour it into the 5 liter one. 

Then, re-fill the 3 liter bucket and pour it into the 5 liter bucket until it’s full – that leaves 1 liter in the 3 liter bucket and 5 in the 5 liter bucket. 

Then, pour out the 5 liter bucket so nothing is left and pour the 1 liter of water from the 3 liter bucket into the 5 liter bucket. 

Finally, fill the 3 liter bucket completely and pour it into the 5 liter bucket – since it already has 1 liter of water, you’ll get exactly 4 liters.

What’s a Section 338(h)(10) election and why might a company want to use it in an M&A deal?

A Section 338(h)(10) election blends the benefits of a stock purchase and an asset purchase: 

• Legally it is a stock purchase, but accounting-wise it’s treated like an asset purchase. 

• The seller is still subject to double-taxation – on its assets that have appreciated and on the proceeds from the sale. 

• But the buyer receives a step-up tax basis on the new assets it acquires, and it can depreciate/amortize them so it saves on taxes.

The requirements to use 338(h)(10) are complex and bankers don’t deal with this – that is the role of lawyers and tax accountants
