3 Mary Hobbes joined the board of Rosh and Company, a large retailer, as finance director earlier this year. Whilst shewas glad to have finally been given the chance to become finance director after several years as a financialaccountant, she also quickly realised that the new appointment would offer her a lot of challenges. In the first boardmeeting, she realised that not only was she the only woman but she was also the youngest by many years.Rosh was established almost 100 years ago. Members of the Rosh family have occupied senior board positions sincethe outset and even after the company’s flotation 20 years ago a member of the Rosh family has either been executivechairman or chief executive. The current longstanding chairman, Timothy Rosh, has already prepared his slightlyyounger brother, Geoffrey (also a longstanding member of the board) to succeed him in two years’ time when he plansto retire. The Rosh family, who still own 40% of the shares, consider it their right to occupy the most senior positionsin the company so have never been very active in external recruitment. They only appointed Mary because they feltthey needed a qualified accountant on the board to deal with changes in international financial reporting standards.Several former executive members have been recruited as non-executives immediately after they retired from full-timeservice. A recent death, however, has reduced the number of non-executive directors to two. These sit alongside anexecutive board of seven that, apart from Mary, have all been in post for over ten years.Mary noted that board meetings very rarely contain any significant discussion of strategy and never involve any debateor disagreement. When she asked why this was, she was told that the directors had all known each other for so longthat they knew how each other thought. All of the other directors came from similar backgrounds, she was told, andhad worked for the company for so long that they all knew what was ‘best’ for the company in any given situation.Mary observed that notes on strategy were not presented at board meetings and she asked Timothy Rosh whether theexisting board was fully equipped to formulate strategy in the changing world of retailing. She did not receive a reply.Required:(a) Explain ‘agency’ in the context of corporate governance and criticise the governance arrangements of Roshand Company. (12 marks)

The board of Conoy Co concur with this view. Anders Co, the external auditors have also expressed concern in this area and the fact that the internal audit department focuses work on control systems, not financial reporting. Anders Co are appointed by and report to the board of Conoy Co.The board of Conoy Co are considering a proposal from the chief internal auditor to establish an audit committee.The committee would consist of one executive director, the chief internal auditor as well as three new appointees.One appointee would have a non-executive seat on the board of directors.Required:Discuss the benefits to Conoy Co of forming an audit committee.

1.Two former lovers are to get married next month after reuniting on Facebook 27 years after their romance first ended.2.Paul Eaton,56,and Dawn Pitman,48,first met when he stayed at her mother's bed and breakfast hotel in 1982.The couple enjoyed an 18-month romance before going their separate ways because Ms. Pitman,then 21,thought she was too young to settle down.3.They both met other partners and had children in the following years,but never forgot about each other,then in 2008,water board worker Mr. Eaton joined social networking website Facebook, where he saw some pictures of Ms.Pitman on holiday and got in touch.The mother-of-one,a care worker from Exmouth,Devon,said,"I went to America on holiday and my niece Rachel put all these pictures on Facebook.The irony was that I told her to put them off because I felt it was an invasion of privacy and she said she would get them around to it when she had time.If I hadn't been on Facebook,he would not have contacted me and we would have never got back together."4.Ms.Pitman later mentioned,"I did think of him quite a lot over the years and wondered what happened to him. He hasn't changed a bit.He's the same old laid back,easygoing Paul I knew all those years ago."Mr. Eaton,a father-of-two from Bransley,South Yorkshire said:"It was totally a chance thing. I had only been on Facebook for one day.I just typed Dawn's name in and I hoped for the best.It was a bit scary when I contacted her. I thought she might be married and would have a dozen kids."5.The couple met up again on New Year's Eve 2008 and were amazed to discover the intervening years had been kind to each other."It was a real shock,"Mrs.Pitman said,"We both saw each other and he was exactly the same as I remember and that's what he said about me.He hadn't changed a bit.I knew then he was the one for me."6.Mr. Eaton added:"We just knew instantly as soon as we met up again.We didn't even have to discuss it or propose.When we knew each other all those years ago,I was a white van man and Dawn had a sports car. I still got a white van and Dawn still has a sports car. Some things never change.She always said that we would see each other again.I just didn't think it would be 27 years."The couple are due to get married in Exmouth on March 20.After an 18一month romance the couple split up because Ms. Pitman thought she was______.A:got in touchB:an invasion of privacyC:too young to settle downD:her candlesE:met upF: all those years ago
