Answer 1

$14,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Rosie's has 1,300 shares outstanding at a market price of $10

Sandy's had 2,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $23

The incremental value of the acquisition is $1,800

Therefore, the value of Rosie's to Sandy's can be calculated as follows

=( 1,300×$10)+$1,800

= $13,000+$1,800

=$14,800

Hence the value of Rosie's to Sandy's is $14,800
