Abstract
The CEO (chief executive officer) is preparing a recommendation to the board regarding several possible outside investments in the company, which is currently operating in bankruptcy. In making his decision, the CEO has to consider various financial and strategic factors, including possible synergy benefits and support for the company's huge planned expenditures on new aircraft. To assess the relative merits of the competing investment proposals, it is also necessary to value the company's assets and prescribe a new capital structure for the company after it leaves Chapter 11. Tax factors are extremely important in the analysis. The final decision must be acceptable to the company's creditors and be compatible with allowed US bankruptcy practices.
