In January 2008 Arti entered in a contractual agreement with Bee Ltd to write a study manual for an international accountancy body’s award. The manual was to cover the period from September 2008 till June 2009, and it was a term of the contract that the text be supplied by 30 June 2008 so that it could be printed in time for September. By 30 May, Arti had not yet started on the text and indeed he had written to Bee Ltd stating that he was too busy to write the text.

Bee Ltd was extremely perturbed by the news, especially as it had acquired the contract to supply all of the

accountancy body’s study manuals and had already incurred extensive preliminary expenses in relation to the publication of the new manual.

Required:

In the context of the law of contract, advise Bee Ltd whether they can take any action against Arti.

1.3 Johan, a public limited company, operates in the telecommunications industry. The industry is capital intensive withheavy investment in licences and network infrastructure. Competition in the sector is fierce and technologicaladvances are a characteristic of the industry. Johan has responded to these factors by offering incentives to customersand, in an attempt to acquire and retain them, Johan purchased a telecom licence on 1 December 2006 for$120 million. The licence has a term of six years and cannot be used until the network assets and infrastructure areready for use. The related network assets and infrastructure became ready for use on 1 December 2007. Johan couldnot operate in the country without the licence and is not permitted to sell the licence. Johan expects its subscriberbase to grow over the period of the licence but is disappointed with its market share for the year to 30 November2008. The licence agreement does not deal with the renewal of the licence but there is an expectation that theregulator will grant a single renewal for the same period of time as long as certain criteria regarding network buildquality and service quality are met. Johan has no experience of the charge that will be made by the regulator for therenewal but other licences have been renewed at a nominal cost. The licence is currently stated at its original cost of$120 million in the statement of financial position under non-current assets.Johan is considering extending its network and has carried out a feasibility study during the year to 30 November2008. The design and planning department of Johan identified five possible geographical areas for the extension ofits network. The internal costs of this study were $150,000 and the external costs were $100,000 during the yearto 30 November 2008. Following the feasibility study, Johan chose a geographical area where it was going to installa base station for the telephone network. The location of the base station was dependent upon getting planningpermission. A further independent study has been carried out by third party consultants in an attempt to provide apreferred location in the area, as there is a need for the optimal operation of the network in terms of signal qualityand coverage. Johan proposes to build a base station on the recommended site on which planning permission hasbeen obtained. The third party consultants have charged $50,000 for the study. Additionally Johan has paid$300,000 as a single payment together with $60,000 a month to the government of the region for access to the landupon which the base station will be situated. The contract with the government is for a period of 12 years andcommenced on 1 November 2008. There is no right of renewal of the contract and legal title to the land remains withthe government.Johan purchases telephone handsets from a manufacturer for $200 each, and sells the handsets direct to customersfor $150 if they purchase call credit (call card) in advance on what is called a prepaid phone. The costs of selling thehandset are estimated at $1 per set. The customers using a prepaid phone pay $21 for each call card at the purchasedate. Call cards expire six months from the date of first sale. There is an average unused call credit of $3 per cardafter six months and the card is activated when sold.Johan also sells handsets to dealers for $150 and invoices the dealers for those handsets. The dealer can return thehandset up to a service contract being signed by a customer. When the customer signs a service contract, thecustomer receives the handset free of charge. Johan allows the dealer a commission of $280 on the connection of acustomer and the transaction with the dealer is settled net by a payment of $130 by Johan to the dealer being thecost of the handset to the dealer ($150) deducted from the commission ($280). The handset cannot be soldseparately by the dealer and the service contract lasts for a 12 month period. Dealers do not sell prepaid phones, andJohan receives monthly revenue from the service contract.The chief operating officer, a non-accountant, has asked for an explanation of the accounting principles and practiceswhich should be used to account for the above events.Required:Discuss the principles and practices which should be used in the financial year to 30 November 2008 to accountfor:(a) the licences; (8 marks)

    (a) The following information relates to Crosswire a publicly listed company.

    Summarised statements of financial position as at:

    The following information is available:

    (i) During the year to 30 September 2009, Crosswire embarked on a replacement and expansion programme for its non-current assets. The details of this programme are:

    On 1 October 2008 Crosswire acquired a platinum mine at a cost of $5 million. A condition of mining the

    platinum is a requirement to landscape the mining site at the end of its estimated life of ten years. The

    present value of this cost at the date of the purchase was calculated at $3 million (in addition to the

    purchase price of the mine of $5 million).

    Also on 1 October 2008 Crosswire revalued its freehold land for the first time. The credit in the revaluation

    reserve is the net amount of the revaluation after a transfer to deferred tax on the gain. The tax rate applicable to Crosswire for deferred tax is 20% per annum.

    On 1 April 2009 Crosswire took out a finance lease for some new plant. The fair value of the plant was

    $10 million. The lease agreement provided for an initial payment on 1 April 2009 of $2·4 million followed

    by eight six-monthly payments of $1·2 million commencing 30 September 2009.

    Plant disposed of during the year had a carrying amount of $500,000 and was sold for $1·2 million. The

    remaining movement on the property, plant and equipment, after charging depreciation of $3 million, was

    the cost of replacing plant.

    (ii) From 1 October 2008 to 31 March 2009 a further $500,000 was spent completing the development

    project at which date marketing and production started. The sales of the new product proved disappointing

    and on 30 September 2009 the development costs were written down to $1 million via an impairment

    charge.

    (iii) During the year ended 30 September 2009, $4 million of the 10% convertible loan notes matured. The

    loan note holders had the option of redemption at par in cash or to exchange them for equity shares on the

    basis of 20 new shares for each $100 of loan notes. 75% of the loan-note holders chose the equity option.

    Ignore any effect of this on the other equity reserve.

    All the above items have been treated correctly according to International Financial Reporting Standards.

    (iv) The finance costs are made up of:

    Required:

    (i) Prepare a statement of the movements in the carrying amount of Crosswire’s non-current assets for the

    year ended 30 September 2009; (9 marks)

    (ii) Calculate the amounts that would appear under the headings of ‘cash flows from investing activities’

    and ‘cash flows from financing activities’ in the statement of cash flows for Crosswire for the year ended

    30 September 2009.

    Note: Crosswire includes finance costs paid as a financing activity. (8 marks)

    (b) A substantial shareholder has written to the directors of Crosswire expressing particular concern over the

    deterioration of the company’s return on capital employed (ROCE)

    Required:

    Calculate Crosswire’s ROCE for the two years ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 and comment on the

    apparent cause of its deterioration.

    Note: ROCE should be taken as profit before interest on long-term borrowings and tax as a percentage of equity plus loan notes and finance lease obligations (at the year end). (8 marks)

    U. S. to Start $3.2 Billion Child Health Study in January

    A study that will cost $3.2 billion and last more than two decades to track the health of 100,000 U.S.children from before birth to age 21 will be launched in January,U.S.health officials said on Friday.
    Officials from the U.S. government's National Institutes of Health said they hope the study,to be conducted at 105 locations throughout the United States,can help identify early-life influences that affect later development,with the goal of learning new ways to treat or prevent illness.
    The study will examine hereditary（遗传的）and environmental factors such as exposure to certain chemicals that affect health.
    Researchers will collect genetic and biological samples from people in the study as well as samples from the homes of the women and their babies including air,water,dust and materials used to construct their residences,the NIH said.
    Officials said more than $200 million has been spent already and the study is projected to cost $3.2 billion.
    "We anticipate that in the long term（从长远说来）,what we learn from the study will result in a significant savings in the nation's health care costs,"Dr. Duane Alexander,who heads the NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development,told reporters.
    The study will begin in January when the University of North Carolina and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York start signing up（使报名从事）pregnant women whose babies will then be followed to age 21.
    Some of the early findings will be about factors behind pre-term birth（早产）,which has become more common in recent years,according to Dr. Peter Scheidt of the NIH,who heads the study.
    The people taking part will be from rural,urban and suburban areas,from all income and educational levels and from all racial groups,the NIH said.

    Researchers will collect all the following EXCEPT__________.
    A:genetic samples from people in the study
    B:biological samples from people in the study
    C:samples from the homes of the women and their babies
    D:samples of air and water from hospitals

    答案：D
    解析：
    文章第二段提到了此项研究的goal，即aim，这便是“learning new ways to treat or prevent illness”。
    前三项在短文的第四段都有提及，第四项应该是“参加研究的妇女及其婴儿家中的空气与水等物质，”而不是“医院中的空气与水”。
    文章第六段说道，预计从长远来说，此项研究将有利于国家卫生保健费用开支的节约。
    文章第一段以及倒数第三段都说道，这些婴儿将从出生前一直被跟踪研究到21岁。
    前三项在短文的最后一段都有提及，只有第四项是错误的，因为研究对象都是怀孕的妇女，不可能是所有年龄段的人们。

On 1 January 2009 Barstead made a fully subscribed rights issue of one new share for every four shares held at a price of $2·80 each. The market price of the equity shares of Barstead immediately before the issue was $3·80. The earnings per share (EPS) reported for the year ended 30 September 2008 was 35 cents.

    Barstead’s income tax rate is 25%.

    Officials from the U.S. government's National Institutes of Health said they hope the study,to be conducted at 105 locations throughout the United States,can help identify early-life influences that affect later development,with the goal of learning new ways to treat or prevent illness.
    The study will examine hereditary（遗传的）and environmental factors such as exposure to certain chemicals that affect health.
    Researchers will collect genetic and biological samples from people in the study as well as samples from the homes of the women and their babies including air,water,dust and materials used to construct their residences,the NIH said.
    Officials said more than $200 million has been spent already and the study is projected to cost $3.2 billion.
    "We anticipate that in the long term（从长远说来）,what we learn from the study will result in a significant savings in the nation's health care costs,"Dr. Duane Alexander,who heads the NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development,told reporters.
    The study will begin in January when the University of North Carolina and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York start signing up（使报名从事）pregnant women whose babies will then be followed to age 21.
    Some of the early findings will be about factors behind pre-term birth（早产）,which has become more common in recent years,according to Dr. Peter Scheidt of the NIH,who heads the study.
    The people taking part will be from rural,urban and suburban areas,from all income and educational levels and from all racial groups,the NIH said.

    The aim of the study is to find new ways to_______.
    A:conduct research
    B:track public health
    C:prevent or treat illness
    D:speed up development

    答案：C
    解析：
    文章第二段提到了此项研究的goal，即aim，这便是“learning new ways to treat or prevent illness”。
    前三项在短文的第四段都有提及，第四项应该是“参加研究的妇女及其婴儿家中的空气与水等物质，”而不是“医院中的空气与水”。
    文章第六段说道，预计从长远来说，此项研究将有利于国家卫生保健费用开支的节约。
    文章第一段以及倒数第三段都说道，这些婴儿将从出生前一直被跟踪研究到21岁。
    前三项在短文的最后一段都有提及，只有第四项是错误的，因为研究对象都是怀孕的妇女，不可能是所有年龄段的人们。
