Testing the Inefficient Management Hypothesis: Are United Kingdom Mergers and Acquisitions Disciplinary?

In response to the question set, I will go into detail of the study, consisting of the background, main hypotheses, as well the aims, procedure and results gathered from the study; explaining the four research methods chosen to investigate,

This question guides the course of the research study and guides researchers in setting up the study effectively and accurately. It is important, throughout the course of research, to ensure that additional questions do not cloud the initial research question (Farrugia et al. 2010). This requires a focus on the original research question and the ability of researchers to set aside additional questions that may arise for later research studies.

This study sought to answer three research questions. Although the questions have been presented in previous chapters, they are worth presenting again.

This essay intends to critique and analyse the research paper, in order to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the research undertaken. Certain questions are required to ensure that the evaluation is assessing the essential components of the research (Holloway& Wheeler, 2002). Therefore Holloway and

Bringing this dissertation to fruition was a long journey accomplished only because of the contributed efforts of many. I thank my committee—Vance Holliday, Jay Quade, Vic Baker, Barbara Mills, and Jeff Dean—for all their help, guidance, and encouragement. I feel lucky to have worked under the supervision of such an eminent group of researchers. I especially appreciate my advisor Vance Holliday, who was supportive of my decision to pursue an independent and initially unfunded project.

As stated by the author herself, Kristin Mack, “The purpose of the present study is to address the limitations of previous research

The objective of this chapter is to provide a well detailed systematic critical analysis of the chosen articles related to the research questions previously identified in chapter 1. This chapter has been divided into sub-sections to reflect the research questions of the literature review.

In the manuscript, I will be discussing why I am conducting this study. I will discuss previous studies that has already been done, and how my current study relates to the previous studies. I will be discussing the methods and procedures used for my study, and the results after conducting my study. I will also provide a discussion of my study as well as the implications.

This assignment will be completed with a conclusion which will review the findings of the research that has been undertaken.

While terms of merger either acquisition are commonly used to define a wide range of transactions, in fact, they are all different according to specific conditions of each. Therefore, researches distinguish M&A activity according to its nature. Amit R. (1989) classifies three main types of mergers on a basis of target firm’s nature: anticipated bankruptcy of a target firm; exceptional performance or high liquidity of a target; and target firm being a remainder of a greater one. However, this generalised classification is not widely adopted by researchers which rather prefer to employ a conventional classification or, to be more precise, they classify and sub-classify M&A by their perspectives.
