I don't know if the same applies to the Q but this is how the CEO of Alcatel explained purchases. It was so much per engineer . If it's a decent formula find out how many engineers the Q sold and pick a number.

"Companies operating in the Internet sector are usually bought on the basis of 3 to 4 million dollars per engineer. And yet the takeover of Ascend by Lucent was made on the basis of 15 million dollars."
