When the transferee company agrees to pay a fixed sum to the transferor company, it is called a lump sum payment of purchase consideration. For example, if X Ltd. purchases the business of Y Ltd. and agrees to pay Rs. 25,00,000 in all, it is an example of lump sum payment. (ii) Net Worth (or Net Assets) Method. According to this method, the purchase consideration is calculated by calculating the net worth of the assets taken over by the Transferee Company.

Two or more companies can either be absorbed by an entirely new firm or a subsidiary powered by one of the basic firm. In such cases all the shareholders of the absorbed company automatically become the shareholders of the ruling company as the amalgamating company loses its existence. All the assets and liabilities are also transferred to the new entity. Merits and Demerits A primary advantage of the transaction is that a merger is legally simple and does not cost as much as other forms of acquisition. The reason is that the firms simply agree to combine their entire operations. Thus, for example, there is no need to transfer title to individual assets of the acquired firm to the acquiring firm. Besides that, merger also reduces the number of competition in the market and captures additional economic scales of the market. This will keep the company growth with the amalgamation of the competitive advantages of both firms. Merger also enables the company to restructuring and strengthening the organization as firms involved in the transaction share strategies to strengthen the organization, thus eliminate weaknesses in the firm. By the way, two heads are better than one. After the merger transaction took place, acquiring firm enables to make new investment with the surplus money available. Perhaps, the organization may invest in larger investment to yield more profit.
The transaction also allows the acquiring firm to gain more market share, thus results better confidence from its current customers as the firm seems more reliable.

One of the disadvantages is that a merger must be approved by votes of the stockholders of each firm. Typically, two-thirds (or even more) of the share votes are required for approval. Obtaining the necessary votes can be time-consuming and difficult. Furthermore, the cooperation of the target firm existing management is almost a necessity for a merger. This cooperation may not be easily or cheaply obtained. Moreover, the diseconomies of scale if business become too large which leads to higher unit costs. Its also will create clashes of culture between different types of business. Thus this reduces the effectiveness of the integration. Merger also may be creating a conflict of objective between different businesses, meaning decisions are more difficult to make and causing disruption in running of the business. It also results dissatisfaction among current staffs as positions will be limited and the management have to decide which staffs to hold the position after the transaction has taken place. Answer 3 Internal Reconstruction: Internal reconstruction means a recourse undertaken to make necessary changes in the capital structure of a company without liquidating the existing company. In internal reconstruction neither the existing company is liquidated, nor is a new company incorporated. It is a scheme in which efforts are made to bail out the company from losses and put it in profitable position. Internal reconstruction of a company is done through the reorganization of its share capital. It is a scheme of reorganization in which all interested parties in the capital structure volunteer to sacrifice. They are the company s shareholders, debenture holders, creditors etc. Under internal reconstruction, the accumulated trading losses and fictitious assets are written off against the sacrifice made by these interest holders in the form of reduction of paid up value of their interest. The following are the three situations generally responsible for the internal reconstruction of a company: (i) When the capital structure of a company is complex and it is required to make it simple. (ii) When there are huge accumulated losses and it is required to write off these losses to depict a better position of the company. (iii) When a part of the capital is not represented by available tangible assets. Internal reconstruction of a company can be carried out in the following different ways. These are as under: (A) Alteration of Share Capital; and (B) Reduction in Share Capital Reduction in capital may be either involving sacrifice of shareholders only or involving sacrifice from Shareholders and other stakeholders, viz., debenture holders and creditors. Learners should note that the sacrifice is made either by the shareholders only or by the Shareholders and other stakeholders jointly.
