Consider:
A WSJ front page story March 1, 2000 (about CISCO):

Under Cisco's System
Mergers Usually Work;
That Defies The Odds

The article starts:

Just a reminder.
Buying hanger companies is only worth 7 times earnings, IMO. Amortizing acquisition costs over too long a period, creates a misleading financial picture.
