Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Thomas Duening and Robert Hisrich book "Technology Entrepreneurship: Taking Innovation to the Marketplace", the direct purchase has some problems: long-term capital gain to the seller and double taxation. The bootstrap purchase eliminates those problems: the acquiring company can acquire a small amount of the firm, 20 or 30% in cash and the remaining with a long-term note.
