4 Assume today’s date is 15 May 2005.
In March 1999, Bob was made redundant from his job as a furniture salesman. He decided to travel round the world,
and did so, returning to the UK in May 2001. Bob then decided to set up his own business selling furniture. He
started trading on 1 October 2001. After some initial success, the business made losses as Bob tried to win more
customers. However, he was eventually successful, and the business subsequently made profits.
The results for Bob’s business were as follows:
Period Schedule D Case I
Trading Profits/(losses)
￡
1 October 2001 – 30 April 2002 13,500
1 May 2002 – 30 April 2003 (18,000)
1 May 2003 – 30 April 2004 28,000
Bob required funds to help start his business, so he raised money in three ways:
(1) Bob is a keen cricket fan, and in the 1990s, he collected many books on cricket players. To raise money, Bob
started selling books from his collection. These had risen considerably in value and sold for between ￡150 and
￡300 per book. None of the books forms part of a set. Bob created an internet website to advertise the books.
Bob has not declared this income, as he believes that the proceeds from selling the books are non-taxable.
(2) He disposed of two paintings and an antique silver coffee set at auction on 1 December 2004, realising
chargeable gains totalling ￡23,720.
(3) Bob took a part time job in a furniture store on 1 January 2003. His annual salary has remained at ￡12,600
per year since he started this employment.
Bob has 5,000 shares in Willis Ltd, an unquoted trading company based in the UK. He subscribed for these shares
in August 2000, paying ￡3 per share. On 1 December 2004, Bob received a letter informing him that the company
had gone into receivership. As a result, his shares were almost worthless. The receivers dealing with the company
estimated that on the liquidation of the company, he would receive no more than 10p per share for his shareholding.
He has not yet received any money.
Required:
(a) Write a letter to Bob advising him on whether or not he is correct in believing that his book sales are nontaxable.
Your advice should include reference to the badges of trade and their application to this case.

第一篇The Making of a Success StoryIKEA is the world ' s largest furniture retailer , and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad , one of the world ' s most successful entrepreneurs (企业家 ).Born in Sweden in 1926 , Kamprad was a natural businessman.As a child , he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches , seeds , and pencils in his community.When Kamprad was 17 , his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades.Naturally , he used it to start up a business-IKEA.Today IKEA is known for its modern , minimalist (极简单主义的) furniture , but it was not a furniture company in the beginning.Rather , IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous (五花八门的) goods , including watches , pens and stockings.IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947.The furniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad's home.Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line.Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult ,Sweden.IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture in attractive settings , but in the early 1950s , people ordered from catalogues.Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelming : people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it.This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive.By 1955 ,IKEA was designing all its own furniture.In 1956 , Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport.Kamprad was inspired.The man had given him a great idea , flat packaging.Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers.IKEA tried it and sales soared.The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves , but over time , even this grew into an advantage for IKEA.Nowadays , IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency.This image has done wonders for the company , leading to otter sales and continued expansion.Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries.Amazingly , Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA privately-held company.In 2004 he was named the world ' s richest man.He currently lives in Switzerland id is retired from the day-to-day operations of IKEA.IKEA itself, though , just keeps on growing.According to the passage , which of the following is NOT true?A:IKEA experienced rapid expansion since the late 1950s.B:IKEA designed its own products since 1955.C:IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods originally.D:Kamprad sold his company after retirement.

单选题A characteristic of American culture that has become almost
a tradition is to respect the self-made man-the man who has risen to the top
through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the
leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social
position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer
or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his
father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.
This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many
aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only
comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地)furnished and in which there is every
evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel,
expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess
probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash
dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something
quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie
bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in
careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing
the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help
with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who
is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during
the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for
his education.The expression "wait on table" in the second paragraph means "（）".A
work in a furniture shopB
keep accounts for a barC
wait to lay the tableD
serve customers in a restaurant
