正确答案：
(d) The change in ownership represents a major change in the life of any organisation and the opportunity to convince the various
stakeholders of the strategic direction the firm is going in should not be missed. Mission statements are not something that
can be created at five minutes notice and once created need to be revisited to ensure they are still relevant and engaging.
Some experts argue that the mission can only be developed once the firm’s competitive strategy has been developed. Others
argue that it is the starting point for the whole strategic planning process.
A mission statement expresses the purpose of the business and great care will need to be taken to clarify the new role and
status of the buyout directors. Two other critical stakeholders are the workforce and the customers – alienation of either group
will have serious consequences for the firm. Customers need to be convinced that they should stay with the firm and staff
that there is a future for them in the new set up. Bonar Paint needs to ensure that its reputation for customer care is part of
the statement.
The strategy of the firm in terms of where and how it is going to compete again should create confidence in the key
stakeholders. Developing this clear sense of where Bonar Paint is going and how it is going to get there will be of particular
interest to its financial backers. Expressing the mission of the business will be a key part of any business plan. Bonar Paint
may also choose to emphasise the standards of behaviour that will underpin the way it does business. This may include an
explicit commitment to innovative products and customer service. Once again the impact and relevance to both internal and
external stakeholders is important.
Finally, the buyout managers have to convince stakeholders that the culture and values associated with that culture will be
retained after the change in ownership. Bonar Paint, under the Bonar brothers’ ownership and direction, did not feel that
strategic planning was a necessary activity. A succinct and meaningful mission statement may be an excellent way to
communicate the new ownership and sense of purpose in Bonar Paint.
Creating mission statements that convey a sense of purpose may not be easy for the buyout team. The time spent creating
the statement has to have positive outcomes or it will be time wasted. Creating such a statement with no previous experience
increases the difficulties. Seeing it as an integral part of a strategic planning process is important. Care must be taken to
involve other stakeholders in the process or statements may be made with little meaning for them. The degree of involvement
is also significant; most stakeholders are more likely to be useful as ‘sounding boards’ for testing and refining the statement.
The danger is that a statement is produced that few stakeholders buy into and does not affect attitudes or behaviours towardBonar Paint.

正确答案：
(b) (i) Paul has options in an HMRC approved share scheme. Under such schemes, no tax liabilities arise either on the grant
or exercise of the option. The excess of the proceeds over the price paid for the shares (the exercise price) is charged to
capital gains tax on their disposal.
However, in order to secure this treatment, one of the conditions to be satisfied is that the options cannot be exercised
within three years of the date of grant. If Paul were to exercise his options now (i.e. before the third anniversary of the
grant), the exercise would instead be treated as an unapproved exercise. At that date, income tax would be charged on
the difference between the market value of the shares on exercise and the price paid to exercise the option.

正确答案：
(ii) Evidence supporting the assertion that development costs are technically feasible would include the following:
– Review the results of scientific tests performed on the products, for example, the results of animal or human testing
of the products.
– Discuss any detrimental results of these tests, e.g. harmful side effects, with the scientists working on the project
to determine what corrective action is being taken.
– Enquire whether any licences necessary for continued development and/or commercial production have been
granted by the appropriate regulatory body.
– Compare expected to actual development costs incurred per product being developed. Where actual costs are in
excess of expected costs investigate whether the extra costs have been incurred in order to make good any problems
identified in the development process.
– Review board minutes for relevant discussion of the product development taking place during the year.
