Question：Ideally, who should the internal audit department report to?

 

A. The chief accountant.

B. The Audit Committee.

C. The Board of Directors.

D. The external auditor.

 

The correct answer is: The Audit Committee.

 

Ideally, the internal audit department should report to the Audit Committee. If there is no Audit Committee they should report to the Board of Directors. They do not report to the external auditor as they are employees of the client and they should not report to the chief accountant as the majority of work they perform will be within his department. Reporting to the chief accountant would impair their independence.

3 Seejoy is a famous football club but has significant cash flow problems. The directors and shareholders wish to take

steps to improve the club’s financial position. The following proposals had been drafted in an attempt to improve the

cash flow of the club. However, the directors need advice upon their implications.

(a) Sale and leaseback of football stadium (excluding the land element)

The football stadium is currently accounted for using the cost model in IAS16, ‘Property, Plant, and Equipment’.

The carrying value of the stadium will be $12 million at 31 December 2006. The stadium will have a remaining

life of 20 years at 31 December 2006, and the club uses straight line depreciation. It is proposed to sell the

stadium to a third party institution on 1 January 2007 and lease it back under a 20 year finance lease. The sale

price and fair value are $15 million which is the present value of the minimum lease payments. The agreement

transfers the title of the stadium back to the football club at the end of the lease at nil cost. The rental is

$1·2 million per annum in advance commencing on 1 January 2007. The directors do not wish to treat this

transaction as the raising of a secured loan. The implicit interest rate on the finance in the lease is 5·6%.

(9 marks)

Required:

Discuss how the above proposals would be dealt with in the financial statements of Seejoy for the year ending

31 December 2007, setting out their accounting treatment and appropriateness in helping the football club’s

cash flow problems.

(Candidates do not need knowledge of the football finance sector to answer this question.)

正确答案：

The IOA Division is also considering whether to undertake an investment in the West of the country (the West Project).

An initial cash outlay investment of ￡12 million will be required and a net cash inflow amounting to ￡5 million is

expected to arise in each of the four years of the life of the project.

The activities involved in the West project will cause the local river to become polluted and discoloured due to the

discharge of waste substances from mining operations.

It is estimated that at the end of year four a cash outlay of ￡2 million would be required to restore the river to its

original colour. This would also clear 90% of the pollution caused as a result of the mining activities of the IOA

Division.

The remaining 10% of the pollution caused as a result of the mining activities of the IOA Division could be cleared

up by a further cash outlay of ￡2 million.

(c) Evaluate the West project and, stating your reasons, comment on whether the board of directors of NCL plc

should spend the further ￡2 million in order to eliminate the remaining 10% of pollution. (6 marks)

(Ignore Taxation).

正确答案：

(c) The net present value of the West project is dependent upon the level of environmental expenditure that will be incurred by
Division IOA at the conclusion of the project. The potential NPV of the West project can be calculated using a discount rate
of 12% per annum which assumes that the West project has similar characteristics to the North, East and South projects.
Net cash inflows for each of years 1–4 = ￡5 million
Cumulative discount factor at 12% per annum = 3·037
Therefore the present value of cashflows is ￡5 million x 3·037 = ￡15,185 million and the net cash flow after the initial
outlay of ￡12 million is ￡3,185,000.
There is now the strategic consideration regarding whether to spend ￡2 million which will restore the river to its original colour
and also clear 90% of the pollution caused as a result of the mining activities of the IOA Division, or to incur expenditure of
a further ￡2 million which will completely redress any damage done to the environment by the activities of the IOA Division.

(b) ‘Strategic positioning’ is about the way that a company as a whole is placed in its environment and concerns its

‘fit’ with the factors in its environment.

With reference to the case as appropriate, explain how a code of ethics can be used as part of a company’s

overall strategic positioning. (7 marks)

正确答案：
(b) Code of ethics and strategic positioning
Strategic positioning is about the way that a whole company is placed in its environment as opposed to the operational level,
which considers the individual parts of the organisation.
Ethical reputation and practice can be a key part of environmental ‘fit’, along with other strategic issues such as generic
strategy, quality and product range.
The ‘fit’ enables the company to more fully meet the expectations, needs and demands of its relevant stakeholders – in this
case, European customers.
The ‘quality’ of the strategic ‘fit’ is one of the major determinants of business performance and so is vital to the success of
the business.
HPC has carefully manoeuvred itself to have the strategic position of being the highest ethical performer locally and has won
orders on that basis.
It sees its strategic position as being the ethical ‘benchmark’ in its industry locally and protects this position against its parent
company seeking to impose a new code of ethics.
The ethical principles are highly internalised in Mr Hogg and in the company generally, which is essential for effective strategic
implementation.
