Please utilize the attached case study to answer the following questions: 1. Assess Disneys and Pixars financial performance over the period covered in the case. How has each company performed? What accounts for each firms performance? 2. Provide a model of Disneys and Pixars industry value chains (raw materials to final consumers, similar to what we did for Netflix and Tootsie Roll). How do Disney and Pixar relate to each other, and how do Disneys various businesses fit together? 3. Assuming it will cost around $7B to buy Pixar, is this acquisition a good deal for Disney from a purely financial standpoint? Thinking beyond financials, what concerns are there about Pixars future performance if they are acquired by Disney? Also, please list the questions inline with the paper.
