Status changes represent a way of company reorganization, and one of these changes is joining which has two forms: mergers with acquisition and mergers with establishment. Merger transaction includes business combination as well, if it meets the business conditions. Merger motives are numerous and various, and the most common motive for mergers is the possibility of achieving synergy.
