Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) is integral to M&A accounting, allocating purchase price to acquired assets and liabilities. At E2C, our methodology ensures accuracy and transparency, guiding businesses through PPA seamlessly for compliant and clear financial reporting.
Meaning and Applicability
Understanding Purchase Price Allocation in Mergers
Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) is a critical aspect of the accounting process in mergers and acquisitions (M&A). When one company acquires another, the purchase price must be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired. This process involves determining the fair value of tangible and intangible assets, as well as liabilities assumed. PPA ensures that the financial statements accurately reflect the new assets and liabilities of the combined entity, providing stakeholders with a clear picture of the transaction’s financial impact.
