The responsibility of growing a business is vested in the management

of a business enterprise it is only when a business enterprise grows its profit

that the wealth of the shareholders. In a bid to meet the responsibility of

growing the business the management of a company may embark on

business combination.

Business combination is "an arrangement where two or more business

owned and operated as separate entities join together to become a single

entity tinder a sight ownership. The implication of this is that the separate

business will discount their ownership and come under a single ownership"

(I CAN STUDY PACK 2006). Business combination can take different

firms the prominent of then being mergers and acquisition.

Mike (2004) defined merger as the coming together of two or more

existing companies to form one company. lie further explained that in the

process the companies may cease to exist as separate units. All well (2001)

on the other the hand said" a merger is basically a combination of two or

more companies in which all but one of the combining companies legally

exist and the surviving company continues to operate in the original names

the merging company goes out of business leaving its assets and liabilities to

the acquiring company. It could also be a combination of there the two

merging. It could also be a combination of there the two merging companies

are brought under one management but they maintain a combination of their

original names".
