考题 (a) An assistant of yours has been criticised over a piece of assessed work that he produced for his study course for giving the definition of a non-current asset as ‘a physical asset of substantial cost, owned by the company, which will last longer than one year’.Required:Provide an explanation to your assistant of the weaknesses in his definition of non-current assets whencompared to the International Accounting Standards Board’s (IASB) view of assets. (4 marks)(b) The same assistant has encountered the following matters during the preparation of the draft financial statements of Darby for the year ending 30 September 2009. He has given an explanation of his treatment of them.(i) Darby spent $200,000 sending its staff on training courses during the year. This has already led to animprovement in the company’s efficiency and resulted in cost savings. The organiser of the course has stated that the benefits from the training should last for a minimum of four years. The assistant has therefore treated the cost of the training as an intangible asset and charged six months’ amortisation based on the average date during the year on which the training courses were completed. (3 marks)(ii) During the year the company started research work with a view to the eventual development of a newprocessor chip. By 30 September 2009 it had spent $1·6 million on this project. Darby has a past historyof being particularly successful in bringing similar projects to a profitable conclusion. As a consequence theassistant has treated the expenditure to date on this project as an asset in the statement of financial position.Darby was also commissioned by a customer to research and, if feasible, produce a computer system toinstall in motor vehicles that can automatically stop the vehicle if it is about to be involved in a collision. At30 September 2009, Darby had spent $2·4 million on this project, but at this date it was uncertain as towhether the project would be successful. As a consequence the assistant has treated the $2·4 million as anexpense in the income statement. (4 marks)(iii) Darby signed a contract (for an initial three years) in August 2009 with a company called Media Today toinstall a satellite dish and cabling system to a newly built group of residential apartments. Media Today willprovide telephone and television services to the residents of the apartments via the satellite system and payDarby $50,000 per annum commencing in December 2009. Work on the installation commenced on1 September 2009 and the expenditure to 30 September 2009 was $58,000. The installation is expectedto be completed by 31 October 2009. Previous experience with similar contracts indicates that Darby willmake a total profit of $40,000 over the three years on this initial contract. The assistant correctly recordedthe costs to 30 September 2009 of $58,000 as a non-current asset, but then wrote this amount down to$40,000 (the expected total profit) because he believed the asset to be impaired.The contract is not a finance lease. Ignore discounting. (4 marks)Required:For each of the above items (i) to (iii) comment on the assistant’s treatment of them in the financialstatements for the year ended 30 September 2009 and advise him how they should be treated underInternational Financial Reporting Standards.Note: the mark allocation is shown against each of the three items above.

考题 单选题Passage2The way people work has changed. The increasing use of technology presents new and continual challenges to small and large businesses,employees and managers,teachers and students.Everyone,it seems,is being affected by the technological revolution. Store clerks,for example,now use increasingly complex computerized cash registers,while university professors must learn to adapt their teaching skills in order to lead distance learning course.In today's world,training and learning do not stop when we finish school;they must now continue throughout our working lives. The Hong Kong government conducted a survey on the employment concerns,and training needs of its workforce. For many managers and other professionals the biggest challenge,as well as change,in the workplace,was the increased use of computers and computerized machinery or equipment. The need for experienced employees who could use this kind of equipment rose drastically. Many of those in the workplace at this time experienced changes in job requirements and had to attend job-related training or re-training courses.The changing work environment is also affecting education and how we learn. In Finland, a report on strategies for education and training in the information age discussed the changing roles of both teacher and student. With the increased use of technology and the growth of distance learning, the teacher has become more of a tutor who guides a student, rather than a lecturer. In turn, the student has to take more responsibility for his or her learning in the absence of direct teacher contact. The report also stressed that high school and university students should learn computer skills in order to cope with the demands of the future workplace.The Finnish report also highlighted the need for teacher training, and re-training, and suggested that the salaries and job descriptions of teachers be reviewed because of future demands expected in their jobs. Previously university professors may have held lectures between the weekday hours of 9:00A.M. and 5:00 P.M. in large halls filled with students. Now, they may spend part of their day lecturing larger groups of students on campus, and then conduct afternoon or evening classes online, with students in five different countries.As technologies grow and develop, ongoing training will continue to be necessary. To be successful in the workplace, people will not stop learning when they leave school-lifelong learning will become a way of life.From the first paragraph of the passage we know that_______.A everyone has to learn how to use complex computersB technological revolution has brought changes to people's workC the use of new technology has got small business into large onesD even university professors have to learn the new technology in distance courses
