The management of mitchell labs decided to go private in 2002 by buying all 3.20 million of its outstanding shares at $22.60 per share. by 2006, management had restructured the company by selling off the petroleum research division for $14.60 million, the fiber technology division for $9.60 million, and the synthetic products division for $20 million. because these divisions had been only marginally profitable, mitchell labs is a stronger company after the restructuring. mitchell is now able to concentrate exclusively on contract research and will generate earnings per share of $1.10 this year. investment bankers have contacted the firm and indicated that if it reentered the public market, the 3.20 million shares it purchased to go private could now be reissued to the public at a p/e ratio of 15 times earnings per share. what was the initial cost to mitchell labs to go private?

Suppose you win a small lottery and have the choice of two ways to be paid: you can accept the money in a lump sum or in a series of payments over time. if you pick the lump sum, you get $2,950 today. if you pick payments over time, you get three payments: $1,000 today, $1,000 1 year from today, and $1,000 2 years from today. 1) at an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (lump sum / payments over time), since it has the greater present value. 2) at an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (lump sum / payments over time), since it has the greater present value. 3) years after you win the lottery, a friend in another country calls to ask your advice. by wild coincidence, she has just won another lottery with the same payout schemes. she must make a quick decision about whether to collect her money under the lump sum or the payments over time. what is the best advice to give your friend? a) the lump sum is always better. b) the payments over time are always better. c) it will depend on the interest rate; advise her to get a calculator. d) none of these answers is good advice.
