A result obtained by \textit{S. Friedland} [ibid. 17, 15-51 (1977; Zbl 0358.15007)] for complex matrices is extended to matrices over an algebraically closed field K. Let A be an n-square matrix over K with nonzero principal minors, and let \(w_ 1,...,w_ n\) be elements of K. The author shows that there exists a diagonal matrix D for which DA has eigenvalues \(w_ 1,...,w_ n\); moreover, the number of such matrices D is finite and does not exceed n !.
