Accountant
Monday 8 December 2008
The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants
Section A – This ONE question is compulsory and MUST be attempted
1 The scientists in the research laboratories of Swan Hill Company (SHC, a public listed company) recently made a very
important discovery about the process that manufactured its major product. The scientific director, Dr Sonja Rainbow,
informed the board that the breakthrough was called the ‘sink method’. She explained that the sink method would
enable SHC to produce its major product at a lower unit cost and in much higher volumes than the current process.
It would also produce lower unit environmental emissions and would substantially improve product quality compared
to its current process and indeed compared to all of the other competitors in the industry.
SHC currently has 30% of the global market with its nearest competitor having 25% and the other twelve producers
sharing the remainder. The company, based in the town of Swan Hill, has a paternalistic management approach and
has always valued its relationship with the local community. Its website says that SHC has always sought to maximise
the benefit to the workforce and community in all of its business decisions and feels a great sense of loyalty to the
Swan Hill locality which is where it started in 1900 and has been based ever since.
As the board considered the implications of the discovery of the sink method, chief executive Nelson Cobar asked
whether Sonja Rainbow was certain that SHC was the only company in the industry that had made the discovery and
she said that she was. She also said that she was certain that the competitors were ‘some years’ behind SHC in their
research.
Required:
(a) Assess the secrecy option using Tucker’s model for decision-making. (10 marks)
(b) Distinguish between strategic and operational risks, and explain why the secrecy option would be a source
of strategic risk. (10 marks)
(c) Mr Cobar, the chief executive of SHC, has decided to draft two alternative statements to explain both possible
outcomes of the secrecy/licensing decision to shareholders. Once the board has decided which one to pursue,
the relevant draft will be included in a voluntary section of the next corporate annual report.
Required:
(i) Draft a statement in the event that the board chooses the secrecy option. It should make a convincing
business case and put forward ethical arguments for the secrecy option. The ethical arguments should
be made from the stockholder (or pristine capitalist) perspective. (8 marks)
(ii) Draft a statement in the event that the board chooses the licensing option. It should make a convincing
business case and put forward ethical arguments for the licensing option. The ethical arguments should
be made from the wider stakeholder perspective. (8 marks)
(iii) Professional marks for the persuasiveness and logical flow of arguments: two marks per statement.
(4 marks)
(d) Corporate annual reports contain both mandatory and voluntary disclosures.
Required:
(i) Distinguish, using examples, between mandatory and voluntary disclosures in the annual reports of
public listed companies. (6 marks)
(ii) Explain why the disclosure of voluntary information in annual reports can enhance the company’s
accountability to equity investors. (4 marks)
(50 marks)

ACCA Paper P1
Professional Accountant
Core Areas & Relevant Questions
Corporate Governance
z The fundamental principles underlying good corporate governance. You may be asked
to define and explain any of the core principles of corporate governance, for examples
transparency/ openness was examined in Q1(a) in the December 2007 exam.
z Governance. In both exams so far the examiner has described a scenario where there is
an international conference discussing some aspect of corporate governance.
z The question requirements usually then require a discussion of two contrasting points of
view in respect of governance, Rules v principles or for and against harmonization of
corporate governance codes.
z The corporate governance best practice. You are likely to be given a scenario which
describes a business with poor corporate governance and be asked to assess its
corporate governance practices. ( June 2008 exam, question 3,and December 2008
exam question 3)
z Role and composition of various committees (December 2008 exam Q2)
Internal control and risk management
z Identification and assessment of business risk and/or a review of internal control
mechanisms. In sittings to date the examiner has asked for risks in the scenario to be
identified and then either assessed or a suitable risk response identified, (June 2008
exam, question 1(b) and (c) and December 2008 question 2(b) )
z Risk assessment and management
z Internal control (inc. internal audit)
Ethics and responsibility
z Professional values and ethics. This may be similar to questions on independence in
audit and assurance or may go beyond that to look at the wider obligations of
professional accountants (June 2008 exam, question 2)
z Ethical conflict resolution models (AAA and Tucker’s five questions) (2008/2009Study
Text question 9)
z Ethical Stances (particularly the Gray Owen Adams Model using 7 approaches to CSR)
z Ethics or corporate social responsibility (including sustainability). The questions in
this area have either been knowledge based for example in June 2008 recall a definition
of sustainable development. (December 2008 Q1 – the use of Tuckers model for ethical
decision making and question 4 deontology v teleology in the context of the use of child
labour.)

英国法律制度简介
英国法律的主要特征简单概况如下:(1)英国法律的基础是普通法的传统,它是几百年来由法官们通过判例而发展起来的一种“法官造法”制度,先例判决是英国法律制度的一个重要渊源;(2)法官在发展判例法和解释议会的制定法的含义方面发挥了重要作用。(3)法院的审理程序是控辩式,法官不调查案情,只是根据双方当事人提供给法庭的证据作出判决。法官通常不调查事实和收集证据,在法官眼里,只用证据,没有事实。
一、法院体系
英国的法院体系除了各种法院和治安官法庭外,还有许多具有准司法权的裁判所、委员会等,分别根据制定法的授权,专门处理某一方面的争议。
具有制定判例的能力:
上议院--英国法院体系中,实际上的最高法院是作为终审法院的上议院。上议院享有民事和刑事的上诉终审权。
上诉法院--The Court of Appeal,设刑事庭和民事庭,负责审理上诉案件。
高等法院--The High Court,设王座庭,大法官庭和家事庭,对高等法院的判决不服的,可向上诉法院上诉。
不具有制定判例的能力:
王冠法院--Crown Court,分不同辖区设立的刑事法院,目前唯一实行陪审制度的英国法院。

1 On 1 August 2007 Patronic purchased 18 million of a total of 24 million equity shares in Sardonic. The acquisition
was through a share exchange of two shares in Patronic for every three shares in Sardonic. Both companies have
shares with a par value of $1 each. The market price of Patronic’s shares at 1 August 2007 was $5·75 per share.
Patronic will also pay in cash on 31 July 2009 (two years after acquisition) $2·42 per acquired share of Sardonic.
Patronic’s cost of capital is 10% per annum. The reserves of Sardonic on 1 April 2007 were $69 million.
Patronic has held an investment of 30% of the equity shares in Acerbic for many years.
The summarised income statements for the three companies for the year ended 31 March 2008 are:
Patronic Sardonic Acerbic

The following information is relevant:
(i) The fair values of the net assets of Sardonic at the date of acquisition were equal to their carrying amounts with
the exception of property and plant. Property and plant had fair values of $4·1 million and $2·4 million
respectively in excess of their carrying amounts. The increase in the fair value of the property would create
additional depreciation of $200,000 in the consolidated financial statements in the post acquisition period to
31 March 2008 and the plant had a remaining life of four years (straight-line depreciation) at the date of
acquisition of Sardonic. All depreciation is treated as part of cost of sales.
The fair values have not been reflected in Sardonic’s financial statements.
No fair value adjustments were required on the acquisition of Acerbic.
(ii) The finance costs of Patronic do not include the finance cost on the deferred consideration.
(iii) Prior to its acquisition, Sardonic had been a good customer of Patronic. In the year to 31 March 2008, Patronic
sold goods at a selling price of $1·25 million per month to Sardonic both before and after its acquisition. Patronic
made a profit of 20% on the cost of these sales. At 31 March 2008 Sardonic still held inventory of $3 million
(at cost to Sardonic) of goods purchased in the post acquisition period from Patronic.
(iv) An impairment test on the goodwill of Sardonic conducted on 31 March 2008 concluded that it should be written
down by $2 million. The value of the investment in Acerbic was not impaired.
(v) All items in the above income statements are deemed to accrue evenly over the year.
(vi) Ignore deferred tax.
