How to note firm was acquired?

I'm not sure how to note/format this on my resume and would appreciate any help.

I was hired by company X. Soon after I started, company Y acquired company X. Who do I list as my employer on my resume? Which should it be?

1) Company X (acquired by Company Y) 2) Company Y (formerly Company X) 3) just Company X 4) etc.

Also, my work was related to the acquisition and want to note this in a bullet, but if i choose option 1 or 2 above, how can I phrase (the bullet and/or the title of my employer) so as to not be repetitive?

Thanks!
