文摘This paper analyzes the price difference between superior voting （SV） and inferior voting （IV） shares for three dual-class firms： Farmer Mac as a big price discount case, Fox as a price similarity case, and Heico as a big price premium case.

We suggest that the control benefit can be revealed by examining share accumulation and firm performance.
