for cash与in cash的用法选择

E-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd said on Friday that it was planning to acquire all the remaining shares that it does not own inYouku Tudou Inc for cash.

疑问:for cash 感觉换成 in cash 更好点?这个 for 在这里有什么蕴含的含义么?或者是类似于 exchange A for B。这里是acquire A for B?不过离得有点远啊!

E-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd said on Friday that it was planning to acquire all the remaining shares that it does not own in Youku Tudou Inc for cash.

▲这里的 for cash 是指用“用现金”。如:

Cars (are) wanted for cash. Contact Smith. Call 246—3135. 现金收购汽车,请与史密斯联系,电话号码246—3135。(《张道真英语用法》)

▲但表示“用现金”更通常的表达是 in cash 或 by cash。如:

Are you paying in cash or by cheque? 您付现款还是付支票?

I would appreciate it if you paid in cash. 你若付现金,我将非常感谢。

The purchase price is less if you pay by cash. 付现金的话,价钱便宜些。

▲句子大意:电子商务巨头阿里巴巴集团控股公司星期五表示,它计划现金收购除其已持有的优酷土豆股份有限公司的股份外,该公司所有的剩余股票。
