Monopolistic competition:
is a type of imperfect competition such that competing producers sell products that are differentiated from
one another as good but not perfect substitutes (such as from branding, quality, or location). In
monopolistic competition, a firm takes the prices charged by its rivals as given and ignores the pact of its
own prices on the prices of other firms.
Monopsony:
In economics, a monopsony is a market form in which only one buyer faces many sellers. It is an
examplel off imperfect
i f competition,
ii similar
i il to a monopoly,l in

As
the only or majority purchaser of a good or service, the "monopsonist" may dictate terms to its suppliers in
the same manner that a monopolist controls the market for its buyers.
Monopoly
exists when a specific person or enterprise is the only supplier of a particular commodity. (This contrasts
with a monopsony which relates to a single entity's control of a market to purchase a good or service, and
with oligopoly which consists of a few entities dominating an industry) Monopolies are thus characterized
by a lack of economic competition to produce the good or service and a lack of viable substitute goods.[2]
The verb "monopolise" refers to the process by which a company gains much greater market share than
what is expected with perfect competition.
Oligopoly
is a market form in which a market or industry is dominated by a small number of sellers (oligopolists).

lease
A written agreement under which a property owner (lessor) allows a tenant
(lessee) to use the property for a specified period of time and rent.
The lessor owns the asset and for a fee allows the lessee to use the asset.
At the end of the period of contract (lease period) the asset /equipment
reverts back to the lessor unless there is a provision for the renewal of the
contract.
The real function of a lessor is not renting of the asset but lending of funds /
finance/ credit .
In effect lease financing is in effect a contract of lending money.
Reward means the incremental net cash flows that are generated from
the usage of the equipment over its life and the realization of the
anticipated residual value on expiry.

Operating Leases
• Usually not fully amortized.
• The lessor does not transfers all the risk and rewards incidental to the
ownership of the asset to the lessee.
• The cost of asset is not fully amortized during the primary lease period
• Usually require the lessor to maintain and insure the asset.
• The leaser provides services attached to the leased asset such as
maintenance, repair and technical advice.
• Lessee enjoys a cancellation option.
• Examples: computers, office equipments, automobiles, telephone etc.,
Examples computers office equipments automobiles telephone etc
Financial Leases or Full Pay Out leases
The exact opposite of an operating lease.
1.
1 Do not provide for maintenance or service by the lessor.

2. The lessor transfers all the risk and rewards incidental to the ownership of
the asset to the lessee, whether or not the title is eventually transferred.
3. Financial leases are fully amortized.
4. The lessee usually has a right to renew the lease at expiry.
5. Generally, financial leases cannot be cancelled.

Sale and Lease‐Back
• A particular type of financial lease.
• Occurs when a company sells an asset it already owns to another firm and
immediately leases it from them.
• Example: sale and lease back of safe deposit vaults by banks. Banks sell
the vaults in their custody to a leasing company at market price
substantially higher than the book value and the leasing company in turn
offers these lockers on a long term basis to the bank.
• The banks sublease these lockers to its customers.
• The lease back arrangement in sale and lease back of leasing can be in the
form of a finance lease or an operating lease.
• Two sets of cash flows occur:
– The lessee receives cash today from the sale.
– The lessee agrees to make periodic lease payments, thereby retaining
the use of the asset.
Direct lease:
The owner of the equipment are two different entities.

Leveraged Leases
• A leveraged lease is another type of financial lease.
• A three‐sided arrangement between the lessee, the lessor, and lenders.
g
– The lessor owns the asset and for a fee allows the lessee to use the
asset.
– The lessor borrows to partially finance the asset.
– The lenders typically use a nonrecourse loan. This means that the
lessor is not obligated to the lender in case of a default by the lessee.
Significances and Limitations or Reasons for Leasing
Advantages to the lessee
• Financing of capital goods.
• Additional source of finance.
• Less costly
• Avoids conditionality.

board, conversion of debt into equity, payment of dividend etc.,
• Flexibility in structuring the rentals.
• Simplicity.
• Tax benefits.
• Obsolescence risk is averted.

The machine can be purchased for Rs 15,00,000 it is expected to have a useful life
of 5 years with a salvage value of Rs 1,00,000 after the expiry of 5 years. The
purchase can be financed by 20 % loan repayable in 5 Years annual installments
(inclusive of Interest) becoming due at the end of each year. Alternatively the
machine can be taken on year-end lease rentals of Rs 4,50,000 for 5 years.
Advise the company on the options it should choose. For your exercise, you may
assume the following:
a. The machine will constitute a separate block for depreciation purposes. The
company follows written down value method depreciation, the rate of
depreciation being 20 %.
b Tax rate is 35 % and cost of capital is 20 %.
b. %
c. Lease rentals are to be paid at the end of the year.
d. Maintaining expenses estimated at Rs 30,000 per year are to be borne by the
lessee.
Find the acceptance criterion (1) by Present Value method and (2) IRR method.
Alternative 1. Borrow and buy the equipment. The cost of capital is 0.12
%; marginal rate of tax is 0.35%, cost of debt., 0.17% per annum.
Alternative 2. Lease the equipment from M/s X on a three year full payout
basis @ R 444/ Rs 1000, payable annually in arrears (year end). The lease
can be renewed for a further period of 3 years at a rental of Rs
Rs18/Rs1000 payable annually in arrears.

Hire purchase
• With a hire purchase agreement, after all the payments have been made,
the business customer becomes the owner of the equipment.
• For tax purposes, from the beginning of the agreement the business
customer is treated as the owner of the equipment and so can claim capital
allowances.

Depreciation:
• In lease financing, the depreciation is claimed as an expense in the books of
lessor.
• On the other hand, the depreciation claim is allowed to the hirer in case of hire
purchase transaction.
Rental Payments:
Duration:
Generally lease agreements are done for longer duration and for bigger assets
like land, property etc.
Hire Purchase agreements are done mostly for shorter duration and cheaper
assets like hiring a car, machinery etc.
Tax Impact:
In lease agreement, the total lease rentals are shown as expenditure by the
lessee.
In hire purchase, the hirer claims the depreciation of asset as an expense
Extent of Finance: Lease financing can be called the complete financing option
in which no down payments are required but in case of hire purchase, the
normally 20 to 25 % margin money is required to be paid upfront by the hirer.
Therefore, we call it a partial finance like loans etc.

Restrictions
As you make the lease vs. buy decision you should carefully consider any
restrictions that come with a lease. When leasing, you may have:
Maximum annual mileage limits
Inability to get out of a lease and switch cars
Inability to modify or upgrade the car
Requirements to keep the car’s interior, exterior, and working parts 'like new'
You may also have higher costs than you expected if you lease vs. buy the
vehicle. If you exceed your mileage limit or have to repair cosmetic damage
(that you could just live with if you owned the car) your costs will rise.
Negotiation
Some people avoid the lease vs. buy decision altogether because they think
you can only negotiate when you buy. In fact, the purchase price is negotiable
even when you lease. Likewise, you can shop for different lease agreements
among a variety of vendors; you’re not limited to the auto dealer’s offerings.

Types of Takeovers
General Guidelines
Takeover
– The transfer of control from one ownership group to another
The transfer of control from one ownership group to another.
Acquisition
– The purchase of one firm by another
Merger
– The combination of two firms into a new legal entity
– A new company is created
– Both sets of shareholders have to approve the transaction.
Amalgamation
– A genuine merger in which both sets of shareholders must approve
the transaction
– Requires a fairness opinion by an independent expert on the true
value of the firm’s shares when a public minority exists
Friendly Acquisition
The acquisition of a target company that is willing
to be taken over.
Usually, the target will accommodate overtures
and provide access to confidential information to
facilitate the scoping and due diligence processes.

Friendly Takeovers
Structuring the Acquisition
In friendly takeovers, both parties have the opportunity to
g
structure the deal to their mutual satisfaction including:
1. Taxation Issues – cash for share purchases trigger capital gains so share
exchanges may be a viable alternative
2. Asset purchases rather share purchases that may:
• Give the target firm cash to retire debt and restructure financing
• Acquiring firm will have a new asset base to maximize CCA deductions
• Permit escape from some contingent liabilities (usually excluding claims
resulting from environmental lawsuits and control orders that cannot
severed from the assets involved))
3. Earn outs where there is an agreement for an initial purchase price with
conditional later payments depending on the performance of the target
after acquisition.
Hostile Takeovers
A takeover in which the target has no desire to
be acquired and actively rebuffs the acquirer and
refuses to provide any confidential information.
The acquirer usually has already accumulated an
The acquirer usually has already accumulated an
interest in the target (20% of the outstanding
shares) and this preemptive investment indicates
the strength of resolve of the acquirer.

Hostile Takeovers
The Typical Process
The typical hostile takeover process:
1. Slowly acquire a toehold (beach head) by open market purchase of shares at
y q ( ) y p p
market prices without attracting attention.
2. File statement with OSC at the 10% early warning stage while not trying to
attract too much attention.
3. Accumulate 20% of the outstanding shares through open market purchase
over a longer period of time
4. Make a tender offer to bring ownership percentage to the desired level
(either the control (50.1%) or amalgamation level (67%)) ‐ this offer
contains a provision that it will be made only if a certain minimum
percentage is obtained.
During this process the acquirer will try to monitor management/board
reaction and fight attempts by them to put into effect shareholder rights
plans or to launch other defensive tactics.

Motivations for Mergers and
Acquisitions
Creation of Synergy Motive for M&As
The primary motive should be the creation of
The primary motive should be the creation of
synergy.
Synergy value is created from economies of
integrating a target and acquiring a company;
g g g q g p y;
the amount by which the value of the
combined firm exceeds the sum value of the
two individual firms.
Creation of Synergy Motive for
M&As
Synergy is the additional value created (∆V) :
Where:
VT = the pre‐merger value of the target firm
VA ‐ T = value of the post merger firm
VA = value of the pre‐merger acquiring firm

Value Creation Motivations for
M&As
Operating Synergies
Operating Synergies
1. Economies of Scale
• Reducing capacity (consolidation in the number of firms in the industry)
• Spreading fixed costs (increase size of firm so fixed costs per unit are
decreased)
• Geographic synergies (consolidation in regional disparate operations to
operate on a national or international basis)
2. Economies of Scope
• Combination of two activities reduces costs
3. Complementary Strengths
• Combining the different relative strengths of the two firms creates a firm
with both strengths that are complementary to one another.
Value Creation Motivations for
M&A
Efficiency Increases and Financing Synergies
Efficiency Increases
– New management team will be more efficient
and add more value than what the target now
has.
– The combined firm can make use of unused
production/sales/marketing channel capacity
Financing Synergy
– Reduced cash flow variability
– Increase in debt capacity
– Reduction in average issuing costs
Fewer information problems

Tax Benefits and Strategic Realignments
Tax Benefits
– Make better use of tax deductions and credits
• Use them before they lapse or expire (loss carry‐back, carry‐forward
h b f h l (l b k f d
provisions)
• Use of deduction in a higher tax bracket to obtain a large tax shield
• Use of deductions to offset taxable income (non‐operating capital losses
offsetting taxable capital gains that the target firm was unable to use)
• New firm will have operating income to make full use of available CCA.
Strategic Realignments
– Permits new strategies that were not feasible for prior to the
acquisition because of the acquisition of new management skills,
acquisition because of the acquisition of new management skills,
connections to markets or people, and new products/services.
Managerial Motivations for M&As
Managers may have their own motivations to pursue M&As. The
two most common, are not necessarily in the best interest of the
firm or shareholders, but do address common needs of managers
1. Increased firm size
– Managers are often more highly rewarded financially for building a bigger
business (compensation tied to assets under administration for example)
– Many associate power and prestige with the size of the firm.
2. Reduced firm risk through diversification
• Managers have an undiversified stake in the business (unlike shareholders
who hold a diversified portfolio of investments and don’t need the firm to
be diversified) and so they tend to dislike risk (volatility of sales and profits)
) y ( y p )
• M&As can be used to diversify the company and reduce volatility (risk) that
might concern managers.

Empirical Evidence of Gains
through M&As
• Target shareholders gain the most
– Through premiums paid to them to acquire their shares
g p p q
• 15 – 20% for stock‐finance acquisitions
• 25 – 30% for cash‐financed acquisitions (triggering capital gains taxes for
these shareholders)
– Gains may be greater for shareholders will to wait for ‘arbs’ to
negotiate higher offers or bidding wars develop between multiple
acquirers.

prudent parties acting at arm’s length, with neither party being
under any compulsion to transact.
Key phrases in this definition:
1. Open and unrestricted market (where supply and demand can freely

Valuation Issues
Types of Acquirers
Determining fair market value depends on the perspective of the acquirer.
Some acquirers are more likely to be able to realize synergies than others
and those with the greatest ability to generate synergies are the ones who
g y g y g
can justify higher prices.
Types of acquirers and the impact of their perspective on value include:
1. Passive investors – use estimated cash flows currently present
2. Strategic investors – use estimated synergies and changes that are forecast
to arise through integration of operations with their own
3. Financials – valued on the basis of reorganized and refinanced operations
4. Managers – value the firm based on their own job potential and ability to
motivate staff and reorganize the firm’ss operations. MBOs and LBOs
motivate staff and reorganize the firm operations MBOs and LBOs
Market pricing will reflect these different buyers and their importance at
different stages of the business cycle.

Accounting for Acquisitions
The Purchase Method
One firm assumes all assets and liabilities and operating results
g g
going forward of the target firm.
g
How is this done?
• All assets and liabilities are expressed at their fair market value (FMV) as
of the acquisition date.
• If the FMV > the target firm’s equity, the excess amount is goodwill and
reported as an intangible asset on the left hand side of the balance
sheet.
h t
• Goodwill is no longer amortized but must be annually assessed to
determine if has been permanently ‘impaired’ in which case, the value
will be written down and charged against earnings per share.
