Many people have been confusing pooling of interest with stock-based purchases. Let me make this clear: stock for stock acquisitions may be pooling transactions (balance sheets and income statements simply combined) or purchases (acquired company assets accounted for at market value on balance sheet and goodwill depreciated on income statement). Nortel-Bay was a purchase paid for with stock. European companies chould do the same - pay with stock then depreciate the difference between book value and market price paid.
