I’ve been watching old episodes of shark tank/dragons den. I know that: ludicrous amount of money for <10% = laughable deal, but I don’t know what it means to have a percentage in the company. My understanding is it’s how much of a say you have in the company? Not even sure that’s right.
In: Economics
If you own 10% of a company your own 10% of it’s assets and 10% of any profit or losses it makes.
eg you buy 12.5% of a pizza company, then you own 12.5% of the building, ovens, ingredients etc. And 1 slice of every pizza that goes out the door belongs to you as well (8 slice pizza) so you make 1 slice of pizza’s profit every time they sell a whole pizza.
