Merger of Equals - Merger Math?

How do you think about accretion / dilution analysis on a merger of equals? For example if Yahoo / MSFT would have mergered obviously it would extremely dilutive because you are giving up so much stock.

Whats the best way to think about shares outstanding and the dilution to the pro forma company?
