    Buffett’s purchase price values the business at $61 million. If Buffett bought 90% of the business for $55 million then the balance of 10% is priced at 5.5 million for a total of $60.5 million.

    In 1983 earnings before taxes were $3.8 million and earnings after taxes were $1.5 million. Pre-tax paid by Buffett was 16 times.

    Post-tax P/E paid by Buffett is 41 times.

    Needless to say, NCK is trading at a SIGNIFICANT fraction of that valuation at ~7x post-tax earnings.
