Nikolhearn | Corporate liquidation is referring to high operating leverage firms, where as corp reorganisation refers to high financial leverage firms. Therefore how do bankruptcy laws protect high operating leverage firms in corp liquidation? |
john6668 | Pretty sure the text says that absolute priority rule rarely happens in practice, so surprising they put that as an answer. Guess they are testing concepts. |
