正确答案:
(iii) Lateral or horizontal. Traditional communication assumes a hierarchical structure with only vertical communication,however horizontal communication has become important and necessary in less formal organisations. It takes the form. of coordination with departmental managers or supervisors meeting regularly, problem solving with department members meeting to resolve an issue or information sharing and it also describes interdepartmental sharing of ideas or conflict resolution where there is a need to resolve interdepartmental friction.

    (iii) A statement on the importance of confidentiality in the financing of the early stage working capital needs

    and an explanation of how this conflicts with the duty of transparency in matters of corporate

    governance. (6 marks)

    Professional marks for layout, logical flow and persuasiveness of the statement. (4 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) Importance of confidentiality in the financing of the project and the normal duty of transparency.
    I have been asked to include a statement in my remarks on the balance between our duty to be transparent whenever
    possible and the need for discretion and confidentiality in some situations. In the case of our initial working capital needs
    for the Giant Dam Project, the importance of confidentiality in financing is due to the potential for adverse publicity that
    may arise for the lender. It is important that R&M have the project adequately financed, especially in the early stages
    before the interim payments from the client become fully effective.
    In general, of course, we at R&M attempt to observe the highest standards of corporate governance and this involves
    adopting a default position of transparency rather than concealment wherever possible. We recognise that transparency
    is important to underpin investor confidence and to provide investors with the information they need to make fund
    allocation decisions.
    Whilst it is normal to disclose the amount of debt we carry at any given point (on the balance sheet), it is rarely normal
    practice to disclose the exact sources of those loans. In the case of the financing of initial working capital for the Giant
    Dam Project, I’m sure you will realise that in this unique situation, disclosure of the lender’s identity could threaten the
    progress of the project. For this reason we must resist any attempts to release this into the public domain. We are aware
    of one pressure group that is actively seeking to discover this information in order to disrupt the project’s progress and
    we shall be taking all internal measures necessary to ensure they do not obtain the information.
    Thank you for listening.

    (iii) whether you agree or not with the statement of the production director. (3 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) ‘If we implement a reward scheme then it is bound to be beneficial for BGL’.
    The statement of the manufacturing director is not necessarily correct. Indeed there is much evidence to support the
    proposition that the existence of performance-related reward schemes can encourage dysfunctional behaviour. This often
    manifests itself in the form. of ‘budgetary slack’ which is incorporated into budgets in anticipation of subsequent cuts by
    higher levels of management or to make subsequent performance look better.

  • 第4题:

    (iii) assesses TSC in terms of financial performance, competitiveness, service quality, resource utilisation,

    flexibility and innovation and discusses the interrelationships between these terms, incorporating

    examples from within TSC; and (10 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) The terms listed may be seen as representative of the dimensions of performance. The dimensions may be analysed into
    results and determinants.
    The results may be measured by focusing on financial performance and competitiveness. Financial performance may
    be measured in terms of revenue and profit as shown in the data in the appendix of the question in respect of TSC. The
    points system in part (a) of the answer shows which depots have achieved or exceeded the target set. In addition,
    liquidity is another aspect of the measurement of financial performance. The points total in part (a) showed that
    Leonardotown and Michaelangelotown depots appear to have the best current record in aspects of credit control.
    15
    Competitiveness may be measured in terms of sales growth but also in terms of market share, number of new
    customers, etc. In the TSC statistics available in (a) we only have data for the current quarter. This shows that three of
    the four depots listed have achieved increased revenue compared to target.
    The determinants are the factors which may be seen to contribute to the achievement of the results. Quality, resource
    utilisation, flexibility and innovation are cited by Fitzgerald and Moon as examples of factors that should contribute to
    the achievement of the results in terms of financial performance and competitiveness. In TSC a main quality issue
    appears to be customer care and service delivery. The statistics in the points table in part (a) of the answer show that
    the Raphaeltown depot appears to have a major problem in this area. It has only achieved one point out of the six
    available in this particular segment of the statistics.
    Resource utilisation for TSC may be measured by the level of effective use of drivers and vehicles. To some extent, this
    is highlighted by the statistics relating to customer care and service delivery. For example, late collection of consignments
    from customers may be caused by a shortage of vehicles and/or drivers. Such shortages could be due to staff turnover,
    sickness, etc or problems with vehicle maintenance.
    Flexibility may be an issue. There may, for example, be a problem with vehicle availability. Possibly an increased focus
    on sources for short-term sub-contracting of vehicles/collections/deliveries might help overcome delay problems.
    The ‘target v actual points system’ may be seen as an example of innovation by the company. This gives a detailed set
    of measures that should provide an incentive for improvement at all depots. The points system may illustrate the extent
    of achievement/non-achievement of company strategies for success. For example TSC may have a customer care
    commitment policy which identifies factors that should be achieved on a continuing basis. For example, timely collection
    of consignments, misdirected consignments re-delivered at no extra charge, prompt responses to customer claims and
    compensation for customers.

  • 第5题:

    (iii) Identify and discuss an alternative strategy that may assist in improving the performance of CTC with

    effect from 1 May 2009 (where only the products in (a) and (b) above are available for manufacture).

    (4 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) If no new products are available then CTC must look to boost revenues obtained from its existing product portolio whilst
    seeking to reduce product specific fixed overheads and the company’s other fixed overheads. In order to do this attention
    should be focused on the marketing activities currently undertaken.
    CTC should consider selling all of its products in ‘multi product’ packages as it might well be the case that the increased
    contribution achieved from increased sales volumes would outweigh the diminution in contribution arising from
    reductions in the selling price per unit of each product.
    CTC could also apply target costing principles in order to reduce costs and thereby increase the margins on each of its
    products. Value analysis should be undertaken in order to evaluate the value-added features of each product. For
    example, the use of non-combustible materials in manufacture would be a valued added feature of such products
    whereas the use of pins and metal fastenings which are potentially harmful to children would obviously not comprise
    value added features. CTC should focus on delivering ‘value’ to the customer and in attempting to do so should seek to
    identify all non-value activities in order that they may be eliminated and hence margins improved.

    Note:

    You should assume that the income tax rates and allowances for the tax year 2006/07 and the corporation tax

    rates and allowances for the financial year 2006 apply throughout this questio


    正确答案:
    (iii) Amy’s UK income tax position
    Amy will remain UK resident and ordinarily resident as she is not leaving the UK permanently or for a complete tax year
    under a full time contract of employment. Accordingly, she will continue to be subject to UK tax on her worldwide income
    including her earnings in respect of the duties she performs for Cutlass Inc. The earnings from these duties will also be
    taxable in Sharpenia as the income arises in that country.
    The double tax treaty between the UK and Sharpenia will either exempt the employment income in one of the two
    countries or give double tax relief for the tax paid in Sharpenia. The double tax relief will be the lower of the UK tax and
    the Sharpenian tax on the income from Cutlass Inc.
    Amy will not be subject to UK income tax on the expenses borne by Cutlass Inc in respect of her flights to and from
    Sharpenia provided her journeys are wholly and exclusively for the purposes of performing her duties in Sharpenia.
    The amounts paid by Cutlass Inc in respect of Amy’s family travelling to Sharpenia will be subject to UK income tax as
    Amy will not be absent from the UK for a continuous period of at least 60 days.

  • 第8题:

    (iii) the warranty provision. (3 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) Warranty provision
    ■ Agree the principal assumptions in management’s estimate of liabilities under warranties to the terms of warranty
    as set out in contracts for sale of vehicle. For example:
    – the period for which warranties are given;
    – whether for parts replacement only or parts and labour;
    – exclusion clauses, perhaps for vehicles sold into a particular market, or used in a specified industry (e.g. filmmaking).
    ■ Agree the reasonableness of management’s assumptions in the calculation of the provision. For example, the
    proportion of vehicles for which claims are made within three months, three to six months, six to nine months, etc.
    ■ Substantiate the economic reality of the basis of management’s calculations. For example:
    – agree the number of vehicles sold each month to a summary sales report;
    – agree the calculation of average cost of a repair under warranty to job records;
    – test costs of repair on a sample basis (e.g. parts replaced to price lists and labour charges to hours worked
    (per job records) and charge-out rates).
    ■ Consider the reasonableness of management’s estimate by comparing:
    – the actual cost of after-date repairs (say for three months) against the appropriate proportion of the provision
    made;
    – current year provision per vehicle sold against prior provision per vehicle sold.
    ■ Assess management’s ability to make reliable estimates in this area by comparing last year’s provision with the
    actual repairs under warranty costs incurred during the year in respect of sales made in previous years.
    Tutorial note: The basis of management’s estimate may tend to overstate or understate the provision required
    and should be revised accordingly.
    ■ Agree the extent to which the provision takes account of (has been reduced by) any recourse to suppliers (e.g. in
    respect of faulty parts). For example:
    – by reviewing terms of purchases from major suppliers;
    – by examining records of replacement parts received free of charge.

    (iii) How items not dealt with by an IFRS for SMEs should be treated. (5 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) The treatment of items not dealt with by an IFRS for SMEs
    IFRSs for SMEs would not necessarily deal with all the recognition and measurement issues facing an entity but the key
    issues should revolve around the nature of the recognition, measurement and disclosure of the transactions of SMEs. In
    the case where the item is not dealt with by the standards there are three alternatives:
    (a) the entity can look to the full IFRS to resolve the issue
    (b) management’s judgement can be used with reference to the Framework and consistency with other IFRSs for SMEs
    (c) existing practice could be used.
    The first approach is more likely to result in greater consistency and comparability. However, this approach may also
    increase the burden on SMEs as it can be argued that they are subject to two sets of standards.
    An SME may wish to make a disclosure required by a full IFRS which is not required by the SME standard, or a
    measurement principle is simplified or exempted in the SME standard, or the IFRS may give a choice between two
    measurement options and the SME standard does not allow choice. Thus the issue arises as to whether SMEs should
    be able to choose to comply with a full IFRS for some items and SME standards for other items, allowing an SME to
    revert to IFRS on a principle by principle basis. The problem which will arise will be a lack of consistency and
    comparability of SME financial statements.

  • 第14题:

    (b) Discuss ways in which the traditional budgeting process may be seen as a barrier to the achievement of the

    aims of EACH of the following models for the implementation of strategic change:

    (i) benchmarking;

    (ii) balanced scorecard; and

    (iii) activity-based models. (12 marks)


    正确答案:
    (b) Benchmarking
    Benchmarks enable goals to be set that may be based on either external measures of ‘best practice’ organisations or internal
    cross-functional comparisons which exhibit ‘best practice’. A primary aim of the traditional budgeting process is the setting of
    realistic targets that can be achieved within the budget period. The setting of realistic targets means that the extent of
    underperformance against ‘best practice’ standards loses visibility, and thus short-term financial targets remain the
    predominant focus of the traditional budgeting process. It is arguable that because the budgetary reporting system purports
    to give managers ‘control’, there is very little real incentive to seek out benchmarks which may be used to raise budgeted
    performance targets. Much depends upon the prevailing organisational culture since benchmarking may be viewed as an
    attempt by top management to impose impossible targets upon operational managers. The situation is further exacerbated
    where organisations do not measure their success relative to their competition.
    Balanced scorecard
    The Balanced scorecard is often misunderstood as a consequence of the failure by top management to ensure that it is
    implemented effectively within the organisation. Thus it may be viewed as the addition of a few non-financial measures to
    the conventional budget. In an attempt to overcome this misperception many management teams now establish a
    performance-rewards linkage based upon the achievement of Scorecard targets for the forthcoming budget period.
    Unfortunately this can precipitate dysfunctional behaviour at every level within the organisation.
    Even in situations where the Scorecard has been well-designed and well-implemented it is difficult for it to gain widespread
    acceptance. This is because all too often there exists a culture which places a very high value upon the achievement of the
    fixed annual targets in order to avoid the loss of status, recognition and rewards.
    A well-constructed Scorecard contains a mix of long-term and short-term measures and therefore drives the company in the
    direction of medium-term strategic goals which are supported by cross-functional initiatives. On the other hand, the budgeting
    process focuses the organisation on the achievement of short-term financial goals supported by the initiatives of individual
    departments. Budgets can also act as an impediment to the acceptance of responsibility by local managers for the
    achievement of the Scorecard targets. This is often the case in situations where a continued emphasis exists on meeting shortterm
    e.g. quarterly targets.
    Activity-based models
    Traditional budgets show the costs of functions and departments (e.g. staff costs and establishment costs) instead of the costs
    of those activities that are performed by people (e.g. receipt of goods inwards, processing and dispatch of orders etc). Thus
    managers have no visibility of the real ‘cost drivers’ of their business. In addition, it is probable that a traditional budget
    contains a significant amount of non-value-added costs that are not visible to the managers. The annual budget also tends
    to fix capacity for the forthcoming budget period thereby undermining the potential of Activity-based management (ABM)
    analysis to determine required capacity from a customer demand perspective. Those experienced in the use of ABM
    techniques are used to dealing with such problems, however their tasks would be much easier to perform. and their results
    made more reliable if these problems were removed.

  • 第15题:

    (b) Identify and discuss the appropriateness of the cost drivers of any TWO expense values in EACH of levels (i)

    to (iii) above and ONE value that relates to level (iv).

    In addition, suggest a likely cause of the cost driver for any ONE value in EACH of levels (i) to (iii), and

    comment on possible benefits from the identification of the cause of each cost driver. (10 marks)


    正确答案:
    (b) A cost driver is the factor that determines the level of resource required for an activity. This may be illustrated by considering
    costs for each of the four levels in Order Number 377.
    Unit based costs:
    Direct material costs are driven by the quantity, range, quality and price of materials required per product unit according to
    the specification for the order.
    Direct labour costs are driven by the number of hours required per product unit and the rate per hour that has been agreed
    for each labour grade.
    Batch related costs:
    The number of machine set-ups per batch is the cost driver for machines used.
    The number of design hours per batch is the cost driver for design work.
    Product sustaining costs:
    The number of marketing visits to a client per order is the cost driver for marketing cost chargeable to the order.
    The number of hours of production line maintenance per order is the cost driver for production line cost.
    Business sustaining costs:
    These costs are absorbed at a rate of 30% of total cost excluding business sustaining costs. This is an arbitrary rate which
    indicates the difficulty in identifying a suitable cost driver/drivers for the range of residual costs in this category. Wherever
    possible efforts should be made to identify aspects of this residual cost that can be added to the unit, batch or product related
    analysis.
    The cost drivers are useful in that they provide a basis for an accurate allocation of the cost of resources consumed by an
    order. In addition, investigation of the cause(s) of a cost driver occurring at its present level allows action to be considered
    that will lead to a reduction in the cost per unit of cost driver.
    Examples of causes that might be identified are:
    Material price may be higher than necessary due to inefficient sourcing of materials. This may be overcome through efforts
    to review sourcing policy and possibly provide additional training to staff responsible for the sourcing of materials.
    The number of machine set-ups per batch may be due to lack of planning of batch sizes. It may be possible for batch sizes
    in this order to be increased to 1,250 units which would reduce the number of batches required to fulfil the order from five
    to four. This should reduce overall costs.
    The amount of production line maintenance (and hence cost) required per order may be reduced by examining causes such
    as level of skill of maintenance carried out – by GMB’s own staff or out-sourced provision. Action would involve re-training of
    own staff or recruitment of new staff or changing of out-source providers.
    (alternative relevant examples and discussion would be acceptable for all aspects of part (b))

  • 第16题:

    (iii) Whether or not you agree with the statement of the marketing director in note (9) above. (5 marks)

    Professional marks for appropriateness of format, style. and structure of the report. (4 marks)


    正确答案:

    (iii) The marketing director is certainly correct in recognising that success is dependent on levels of service quality provided
    by HFG to its clients. However, whilst the number of complaints is an important performance measure, it needs to be
    used with caution. The nature of a complaint is, very often, far more indicative of the absence, or a lack, of service
    quality. For example, the fact that 50 clients complained about having to wait for a longer time than they expected to
    access gymnasium equipment is insignificant when compared to an accident arising from failure to maintain properly a
    piece of gymnasium equipment. Moreover, the marketing director ought to be aware that the absolute number of
    complaints may be misleading as much depends on the number of clients serviced during any given period. Thus, in
    comparing the number of complaints received by the three centres then a relative measure of complaints received per
    1,000 client days would be far more useful than the absolute number of complaints received.
    The marketing director should also be advised that the number of complaints can give a misleading picture of the quality
    of service provision since individuals have different levels of willingness to complain in similar situations.
    The marketing director seems to accept the current level of complaints but is unwilling to accept any increase above this
    level. This is not indicative of a quality-oriented organisation which would seek to reduce the number of complaints over
    time via a programme of ‘continuous improvement’.
    From the foregoing comments one can conclude that it would be myopic to focus on the number of client complaints
    as being the only performance measure necessary to measure the quality of service provision. Other performance
    measures which may indicate the level of service quality provided to clients by HFG are as follows:
    – Staff responsiveness assumes critical significance in service industries. Hence the time taken to resolve client
    queries by health centre staff is an important indicator of the level of service quality provided to clients.
    – Staff appearance may be viewed as reflecting the image of the centres.
    – The comfort of bedrooms and public rooms including facilities such as air-conditioning, tea/coffee-making and cold
    drinks facilities, and office facilities such as e-mail, facsimile and photocopying.
    – The availability of services such as the time taken to gain an appointment with a dietician or fitness consultant.
    – The cleanliness of all areas within the centres will enhance the reputation of HFG. Conversely, unclean areas will
    potentially deter clients from making repeat visits and/or recommendations to friends, colleagues etc.
    – The presence of safety measures and the frequency of inspections made regarding gymnasium equipment within
    the centres and compliance with legislation are of paramount importance in businesses like that of HFG.
    – The achievement of target reductions in weight that have been agreed between centre consultants and clients.
    (Other relevant measures would be acceptable.)

  • 第17题:

    (iii) State any disadvantages to the relief in (i) that Sharon should be aware of, and identify and describe

    another relief that she might use. (4 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) There are several disadvantages to incorporation relief as follows:
    1. The requirement to transfer all business assets to the company means that it will not be possible to leave behind
    certain assets, such as the property. This might lead to a double tax charge (sale of the property, then extraction
    of sale proceeds) at a future date.
    2. Taper relief is lost on the transfer of the business. This means that any disposal of chargeable business assets (the
    shares) within two years of the incorporation will lead to a higher chargeable gain, as the full rate of business asset
    taper relief will not be available.
    3. The relief does not eliminate the tax charge, it merely defers the payment of tax until some future event. The
    deferred gain will become taxable when Sharon sells her shares in the company.
    Gift relief could be used instead of incorporation relief. The assets would be gifted to the company for no consideration,
    with the base cost of the assets to the company being reduced by the deferred gain arising. Unlike incorporation relief,
    gift relief applies to individual assets used in a trade and not to an entire business. This is particularly useful if the
    transferor wishes to retain some assets, such as property outside the company, as not all assets have to be transferred.
    Note: If the business was non-trading, incorporation relief would still be available, but gift relief would not. However,
    this restriction should not apply to Sharon and gift relief remains an option in this case.

  • 第18题:

    (iii) Explain the potential corporation tax (CT) implications of Tay Limited transferring work to Trent Limited,

    and suggest how these can be minimised or eliminated. (3 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) Trading losses may not be carried forward where, within a period of three years there is both a change in the ownership
    of a company and a major change in the nature or conduct of its trade. The transfer of work from Tay Limited to Trent
    Limited is likely to constitute a major change in the nature or conduct of the latter’s trade. As a consequence, any tax
    losses at the date of acquisition will be forfeited. Assuming losses were incurred uniformly in 2005, the tax losses at the
    date of acquisition were £380,000 (300,000 + 2/3 x 120,000)). This is worth £114,000 assuming a corporation tax
    rate of 30%.
    Thus, Tay Limited should not consider transferring any trade to Trent Limited until after the third anniversary of the date
    of the change of ownership i.e. not before 1 September 2008. As the trades are similar, there should be little problem
    in transferring work from that date onwards.

    (iii) Advice in connection with the sale of the manufacturing premises by Tethys Ltd; (7 marks)


    正确答案:
    (iii) Tethys Ltd – Sale of the manufacturing premises
    Value added tax (VAT)
    – The building is not a new building (i.e. it is more than three years old). Accordingly, the sale of the building is an
    exempt supply and VAT should not be charged unless Tethys Ltd has opted to tax the building in the past.
    Taxable profits on sale
    – There will be no balancing adjustment in respect of industrial building allowances as the building is to be sold on
    or after 21 March 2007.
    – The capital gain arising on the sale of the building will be £97,760 (£240,000 – (£112,000 x 1·27)).
    Rollover relief
    – Tethys Ltd is not in a capital gains group with Saturn Ltd. Accordingly, rollover relief will only be available if Tethys
    Ltd, rather than any of the other Saturn Ltd group companies, acquires sufficient qualifying business assets.
    – The amount of sales proceeds not spent in the qualifying period is chargeable, i.e. £40,000 (£240,000 –
    £200,000). The balance of the gain, £57,760 (£97,760 – £40,000), can be rolled over.
    – Qualifying business assets include land and buildings and fixed plant and machinery. The assets must be brought
    into immediate use in the company’s trade.
    – The assets must be acquired in the four-year period beginning one year prior to the sale of the manufacturing
    premises.
    Further information required:
    – Whether or not Tethys Ltd has opted to tax the building in the past for the purposes of VAT.

    2 (a) Define the following terms:

    (i) Forensic Accounting;

    (ii) Forensic Investigation;

    (iii) Forensic Auditing. (6 marks)


    正确答案:
    2 Crocus Co
    (a) (i) Forensic accounting utilises accounting, auditing, and investigative skills to conduct an examination into a company’s
    financial statements. The aim of forensic accounting is to provide an accounting analysis that is potentially suitable for
    use in court. Forensic accounting is an umbrella term encompassing both forensic investigations and forensic audits. It
    includes the audit of financial information to prove or disprove a fraud, the interview process used during an
    investigation, and the act of serving as an expert witness.
    Tutorial note: Forensic accounting can be used in a very wide range of situations, e.g. settling monetary disputes in
    relation to a business closure, marriage break up, insurance claim, etc. Credit will be awarded for any reasonable
    examples provided.
    (ii) A forensic investigation is a process whereby a forensic accountant carries out procedures to gather evidence, which
    could ultimately be used in legal proceedings or to settle disputes. This could include, for example, an investigation into
    money laundering. A forensic investigation involves many stages (similar to an audit), including planning, evidence
    gathering, quality control reviews, and finally results in the production of a report.
    (iii) Forensic auditing is the specific use of audit procedures within a forensic investigation to find facts and gather evidence,
    usually focused on the quantification of a financial loss. This could include, for example, the use of analytical
