Merger Model Question

Can someone help me out with these questions for interview prep please?


Say you were to acquire to a company with a 10x PE ratio. Instead of using issuing stock, however, you decide to finance the acquisition using all debt with an interest rate of 10%. Is the deal accretive, dilutive or neutral?


If company A is trading at 9x and company B is trading at 6x should company A buy company B. Then they will ask if it's Accretive or dilutive.

 

Aliquid eaque et ut consequatur. Necessitatibus consequatur quisquam dolorem incidunt nulla. Recusandae explicabo unde at accusantium ratione. Porro illo et modi voluptas itaque harum.

Quasi dolorem aspernatur recusandae. Ipsa labore ut dolorem consectetur id eos. Aut aut sint quia minus impedit qui. Deleniti adipisci illum aliquam eius aliquam. Occaecati dolorem quaerat sequi dolores consequatur voluptas non. Tenetur provident repudiandae itaque amet.
