	Ferengi Rules of Acquisition - Memory Alpha (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition are a series of 285 aphorisms, guidelines, and principles that are the foundation of business philosophy in Ferengi culture.
		The unofficial Rules have been quoted on screen, but either were not given a number, not explicitly stated to be a Rule, or were not part of the generally-accepted canon by the Ferengi Commerce Authority.
		Rule of Acquisition #95 was quoted as Rule #45 in "Acquisition" (ENT).

	Rules of Acquisition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Rules of Acquisition, in the fictional Star Trek universe, are a set of guidelines intended to ensure the profitability of businesses owned by the ultra-capitalist Ferengi.
		The title of "Rules of Acquisition" was chosen as a clever marketing ploy (since the rules are merely guidelines) and Gint numbered his first rule as #162, in order to create a demand for the other 161 Rules that had yet to be written.
		Most of the rules were written by Ira Steven Behr, a producer of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and he has published many of them in a book The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition (ISBN 0-671-52936-6), the cover of which credits authorship as being "By Quark as told to Ira Steven Behr".

	WebCPA \| New anti-Morris Trust rules help acquisition planning
		The code requires that a distributing parent corporation recognize gain on an otherwise tax-free spinoff of its controlled subsidiary's stock, if this is done "as part of a plan (or series of related transactions)" to have one or more persons acquire a 50 percent or greater interest in either the parent or the controlled corporation.
		An acquisition occurs if one or more persons directly or indirectly acquire 50 percent or more of the vote or value of the stock of the controlled or distributing corporation pursuant to a plan or arrangement.
		The new final regs try to accomplish this goal by expanding the safe harbor transactions, refining its list of favorable facts and circumstances, and providing other bright-line rules to determine whether a distribution and an acquisition are part of a plan.
