“When should a you resort to merger and acquisition (M&A) as a growth option?” Please, provide me with the help needed for this question. Required for you to write the question in two paragraphs that’s in very good detail. That means in depth and in details that fully answers to the question. I would like to see your example, but make it so that it is only answered correctly.
