$2.6b in buy-ups

I wonder how much it would have cost to just create a new division, staff it and do the work? And that's just taking into account two of the named buy-ups since only those were given monetary values. (although I suppose that $2.6b wasn't all cash, a big chunk will have been share swapping and other shenanigans.)
