3 You are an audit manager in Webb & Co, a firm of Chartered Certified Accountants. Your audit client, Mulligan Co,

designs and manufactures wooden tables and chairs. The business has expanded rapidly in the last two years, since

the arrival of Patrick Tiler, an experienced sales and marketing manager.

The directors want to secure a loan of $3 million in order to expand operations, following the design of a completely

new range of wooden garden furniture. The directors have approached LCT Bank for the loan. The bank’s lending

criteria stipulate the following:

‘Loan applications must be accompanied by a detailed business plan, including an analysis of how the finance will

be used. LCT Bank need to see that the finance requested is adequate for the proposed business purpose. The

business plan must be supported by an assurance opinion on the adequacy of the requested finance.’

The $3 million finance raised will be used as follows:

$000

Construction of new factory 1,250

Purchase of new machinery 1,000

Initial supply of timber raw material 250

Advertising and marketing of new product 500

Your firm has agreed to review the business plan and to provide an assurance opinion on the completeness of the

finance request. A meeting will be held tomorrow to discuss this assignment.

Required:

(a) Identify and explain the matters relating to the assurance assignment that should be discussed at the meeting

with Mulligan Co. (8 marks)

正确答案：
3 MULLIGAN CO
(a) Matters to be discussed would include the following:
The exact content of the business plan which could include:
– Description of past business performance and key products
– Discussion of the new product
– Evidence of the marketability of the new product
– Cash flow projections
– Capital expenditure forecasts
– Key business assumptions.
The form. of the assurance report that is required – in an assurance engagement the nature and wording of the expected
opinion should be discussed. Webb & Co should clarify that an opinion of ‘negative assurance’ will be required, and whether
this will meet the bank’s lending criteria.
The intended recipient of the report – Webb & Co need to clarify the name and address of the recipient at LCT Bank. For the
limitation of professional liability, it should be clarified that LCT Bank will be the only recipient, and that the assurance opinion
is being used only as part of the bank’s overall lending decision.
Limiting liability – Webb & Co may want to receive in writing a statement that the report is for information purposes only, and
does not give rise to any responsibility, liability, duty or obligation from the firm to the lender.
Deadlines – it should be discussed when the bank need the report. This in turn will be influenced by when Mulligan Co needs
the requested $3 million finance. The bank may need a considerable period of time to assess the request, review the report,
and ensure that their lending criteria have been fully met prior to advancing the finance.
Availability of evidence – Mulligan Co should be made aware that in order to express an opinion on the finance request, they
must be prepared to provide all the necessary paperwork to assist the assurance provider. Evidence is likely to include
discussions with key management, and written representations of discussions may be required.
Professional regulation – Webb & Co should discuss the kind of procedures that will be undertaken, and confirm that they
will be complying with relevant professional guidance, for example:
– ISAE 3000 Assurance Engagements other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information
– ISAE 3400 The Examination of Prospective Financial Information
Engagement administration – any points not yet discussed in detail when deciding to take the assurance engagement should
be finalised at the meeting. These points could include the following:
– Fees – the total fee and billing arrangements must be agreed before any work is carried out
– Personnel – Webb & Co should identify the key personnel who will be involved in the assignment
– Complaints procedures – should be briefly outlined (the complaints procedures in an assurance engagement may differ
from an audit assignment)
– Engagement letter – if not already signed by both Webb & Co and Mulligan Co, the engagement letter should be
discussed and signed at the meeting before any assignment work is conducted.
Tutorial note: the scenario states that Webb & Co have already decided to take the assurance assignment for their existing
client, therefore the answer to this requirement should not focus on client or engagement acceptance procedures.

(ii) An evaluation of the environmental and sustainability implications of the Giant Dam Project; (8 marks)

正确答案：
(ii) Environmental and sustainability implications of the Giant Dam Project
In our preparation for the bid to act as principal contractor for the Giant Dam Project, we established that there were
two prominent negative implications of the project but these are, in our view, more than offset by two major
environmental positives.
The environmental arguments against the Giant Dam Project both concern the flooding of the valley behind the dam.
Regrettably, it seems that there will be some loss of important habitats. This, in turn, may mean the removal of balanced
environmental conditions for certain animal and plant species. In addition, the flooding of the valley will result in the
loss of productive farmland. This will mean reduced capacity for the host country to grow food and thus support citizens
such as the members of First Nation. From our point of view, as the board of R&M, however, we would remind
shareholders and other observers that the decisions involving the size and positioning of the Giant Dam were taken by
the client, the government. It is R&M’s job, having won the contract as principal contractor, to now carry out the plans,
regardless of our own views.
Happily, however, there are two very powerful environmental arguments in favour of the Giant Dam Project. It will create
a large source of clean energy for economic development that will be sustainable, as it will create no carbon emissions
nor will it consume any non-renewable resources as it does so (compared to, for example, fossil fuels).
At a time when people are becoming very concerned about greenhouse gases produced from conventional power
generation, the Giant Dam Project will contribute to the East Asian country’s internationally agreed carbon reduction
targets. This, in turn, will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gases in the environment.
It is clear that the construction of the Giant Dam Project is an environmental conundrum with strong arguments on both
sides. The deciding factor may be the opinion that we each have of the desirability of economic growth in the East Asian
country (which the energy from the dam is intended to support). It seems that Stop-the-dam values the preservation of
the original environment more than the economic growth that the energy from the dam would support. The client does
not agree with this assessment and we are happy to be involved with a project that will create such a useful source of
renewable and non-polluting energy.

3 Spica, one of the director shareholders of Acrux Ltd, has been in dispute with the other shareholders over plans to

expand the company’s activities overseas. In order to resolve the position it has been agreed that Spica will sell her

shares back to the company. Once the purchase of her shares has taken place, the company intends to establish a

number of branches overseas and acquire a shareholding in a number of companies that are resident and trade in

overseas countries.

The following information has been obtained from client files and meetings with the parties involved.

Acrux Ltd:

– An unquoted UK resident company.

– Share capital consists of 50,000 ordinary shares issued at ￡1·90 per share in July 2000.

– None of the other shareholders has any connection with Spica.

The purchase of own shares:

– The company will purchase all of Spica’s shares for ￡8 per share.

– The transaction will take place by the end of 2008.

Spica:

– Purchased 8,000 shares in Acrux Ltd for ￡2 per share on 30 September 2003.

– Has no income in the tax year 2008/09.

– Has chargeable capital gains in the tax year 2008/09 of ￡3,800.

– Has houses in the UK and the country of Solaris and divides her time between them.

Investment in non-UK resident companies:

– Acrux Ltd will acquire between 15% and 20% of each of the non-UK resident companies.

– The companies will not be controlled foreign companies as the rates of tax in the overseas countries will be

between 23% and 42%.

– There may or may not be a double tax treaty between the UK and the overseas countries in which the companies

are resident. Where there is a treaty, it will be based on the OECD model treaty.

– None of the countries concerned levy withholding tax on dividends paid to UK companies.

– The directors of Acrux Ltd are concerned that the rate of tax suffered on the profits of the overseas companies

will be very high as they will be taxed in both the overseas country and in the UK.

Required:

(a) (i) Prepare detailed calculations to determine the most beneficial tax treatment of the payment Spica will

receive for her shares; (7 marks)

正确答案：

 

(b) GHG has always used local labour to build and subsequently operate hotels. The directors of GHG are again

considering employing a local workforce not only to build the hotel but also to operate it on a daily basis.

Required:

Explain TWO ways in which the possibility of cultural differences might impact on the performance of a local

workforce in building and operating a hotel in Tomorrowland. (6 marks)

正确答案：
(b) The directors of GHG should be mindful that the effectiveness of a locally employed workforce within Tomorrowland will be
influenced by a number of factors including the following:
The availability of local skills
If Tomorrowland is a lower wage economy it is quite conceivable that a sufficient number of employees possessing the
requisite skills to undertake the construction of a large hotel cannot be found. If there are insufficient local resources then this
would necessitate the training of employees in all aspects of building construction. This will incur significant costs and time
and needs to be reflected in any proposed timetable for construction of the hotel. As far as the operation of the hotel is
concerned then staff will have to be recruited and trained which will again give rise to significant start-up costs. However, this
should not present the directors of GHG with such a major problem as that of training construction staff. Indeed, it is highly
probable that GHG would use its own staff in order to train new recruits.
Attitudes to work
The prevailing culture within Tomorrowland will have a profound impact on attitudes to work of its population. Attitudes to
hours of work, timekeeping and absenteeism vary from culture to culture. For example, as regards hours of work in the
construction industry in countries which experience very hot climates, work is often suspended during the hottest part of each
day and recommenced several hours later when temperatures are much cooler. The directors of GHG need to recognise that
climatic conditions not only affect the design of a building but also its construction.
A potentially sensitive issue within regarding the use of local labour in the construction of the hotel lies in the fact that national
holidays and especially religious holidays need to be observed and taken into consideration in any proposed timetable for
construction of the hotel. As regards the operation of a hotel then consideration needs to be given to the different cultures
from which the guests come. For example, this will require a detailed consideration of menus to be offered. However, it might
well be the case that the local population might be unwilling to prepare dishes comprising ingredients which are unacceptable
to their culture due to, for example, religious beliefs.
(Note: other relevant factors would be acceptable.)
