NEW QUESTION # 11
Two months have passed since the threatened disruption of the building work on the biomass power station. The threat has been resolved and work is again under way on the development.
You have received the following email from Peter Sorchi, CEO:
From: Peter Sorchi, Chief Executive Officer
To: Senior Finance Manager
Subject: Wildlife survey
Hi,
I tried to obtain some trustworthy advice from your boss this afternoon, but have come away feeling quite unsure that we are on the same wavelength.
As you know, the law in Marland is very clear concerning the protection of rare species of wildlife. Before building work commences on our new power station the Government will send a survey team to check for the presence of protected species. The attached article shows how sensitive an issue this can be.
As part of our corporate social responsibility, every one of Wodd's forestry teams has a small team of wildlife officers, whose job is to survey the forest and to identify all natural habitats. Trees can grow undisturbed for many years in a commercial forest before they are harvested and so natural habitats can become well established. Our wildlife surveys enable us to limit the harm done when trees are felled.
One of Wodd's wildlife officers in the North Forest has submitted a report on the sighting of a rare species of bat in the area that will be cleared for the power station. The report states that these creatures tend to be difficult to observe because they only come out very late at night and tend to roost in dense forest. This could, potentially, delay the start of work for six months while the bats are captured and relocated. Relocating the bats will also be expensive.
The Finance Director's advice was to ask the wildlife officer to change the report, stating that the original version was submitted in error and that the sighting occurred in a completely different part of the forest, well away from the planned construction site. There is only a small possibility that the Government inspectors will find the bats during their own inspection. In the event that they do then Wodd can claim that it was unaware of the bats' presence.
This whole exchange raises a number of issues for me.
* Should we spend shareholder money on protecting wildlife in our forests?
* What are the implications for our internal control system of the Finance Director asking for this report to be changed?
* What are the difficulties in motivating our wildlife officers and how might we overcome these?
* The Chairman is always complaining about how the executive directors are too aggressive when it comes to making a profit. How might I address that concern?
I would appreciate your response on each of the above issues.

Topic 1, Wodd
Company Background
You are a Senior Finance Manager employed by Wodd.
Wodd is a forestry company that invests in forestry projects and adds value through participation in associated industries, such as the manufacture of paper. The company was formed in 1983, when a large area of forest was sold to a consortium of wealthy individuals who had established a company to undertake the purchase.
Over time, the company grew and the original founders sold their shares. Wodd has been quoted since 2002.
Wodd is based in Marland, a European country whose currency is the M$. Marland is heavily industrialised in the South, but has large uninhabited areas in the North. Its climate is temperate and is well suited to growing timber.

Extracts from integrated report for the year ended 30 September 2015
About our report
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Wodd's Board is committed to strong corporate governance and leadership as well as transparency in its disclosures. Over the coming years, Wodd will continue to review its reporting approach and routines, to ensure it meets best practice reporting standards, the expectations of its stakeholders and maintains the visibility of how the Group creates sustainable value for the communities it serves.
Strategic report
Wodd operates in the forestry industry. Wodd's activities include forestry management, harvesting timber and project work, such as helping to create amenity woodlands and forests.
Forestry Management
Wodd manages its own forests and also those of its clients. It is accredited by the Forestry Stewardship Council of Marland (FSCM) for managing sustainable forests.
The client management side of the business consists of forestry-related matters such as harvesting trees and replanting. Wodd can sell harvested timber on behalf of clients. Wodd also advises on taxation and grant applications.
Taxation and Grants
There are grants available for planting and fencing forests. Some grants are awarded by the Forestry Authority of Marland and some come from Government.
There are considerable tax benefits from buying and managing a forest in Marland. No income tax is paid when trees are felled and sold. No capital gains tax is paid if the forest is managed and sold in its entirety in the future. Investing in forestry can be extremely tax efficient for wealthy investors. Wodd has considerable expertise in advising on the tax aspects of forestry ownership.
Harvesting
Wodd fells standing timber in its own forests and on behalf of clients. Cutting down trees and replanting can enhance the health of a forest. Letting light penetrate to the forest floor encourages biodiversity. Removing diseased trees can reduce the risk of problems spreading. Gaps between stands of trees can act as firebreaks.
Wood is also a sustainable crop. The material itself has many uses. Mature trees absorb very little carbon dioxide, whereas freshly planted trees will capture carbon dioxide whilst they are growing.
Wodd has invested in the latest heavy logging machinery that can fell trees and strip their branches. This equipment is suited to clearing areas of trees. Individual trees are still cut down manually with chainsaws.
Forestry work is often carried out in remote areas and can be dangerous.
Projects
Wodd does considerable work with the Forestry Authority of Marland. The Forestry Authority offers substantial grants towards planting and for fencing.
Wodd has undertaken projects on behalf of the Forestry Authority of Marland to create amenity forests. Typically, this involves making picnic areas, footpaths and cycle paths in existing forests in order to encourage the public to use them for leisure and enjoyment.
Chairman's statement
In 2014 the company focused on stabilising its results after a number of difficult years in recession. The company has set its sights on achieving long-term stable returns from its activities with steady improvements in key areas to build a strong future for Wodd.
The company continued to strengthen its position in the markets and regions where it operates. Wodd is gaining an international reputation for excellent forest management which it hopes to enhance in the future.
Volatility in the US Dollar against the $M caused us some problems over the last year. It is hoped that the economic uncertainties that led to this will settle down.
The company has built on its core strengths and has now had the management of all its forests accredited.
Wodd has engaged in some new planting projects over the past year which have all gone well. The more stable weather during the winter meant we did not have much wind-blow and did not have to replant many areas.
The increase in house building and construction has seen an increase in demand for timber and Wodd has benefitted from this and from the increase in timber prices due to this demand. This has helped to sustain the profits that were so welcome last year.
The Forestry Authority in Marland commended our efforts to increase the sustainability of our forests. By replanting areas we have harvested with fast-growing Sitka Spruce, we have improved our carbon storage by 3% in 2014. This was greater than expected.
We entered into two projects last year assisting the Forestry Authority to improve the amenity forests in the north of Marland. These projects were completed during the year and have resulted in a 40% increase in the visitors to the forests; the cycle tracks and picnic areas have been especially popular.
The last few years have been challenging for Wodd. However, we believe the long-term fundamentals are now in place for Wodd to deliver its goal of steady long-term returns on its investments which it can pass on for the benefit of its shareholders.
Sustainability
Wodd's investment objective is to invest in assets which can be established and managed on an environmentally and socially sustainable basis.
We have invested in forests and have emphasised sustainability in all aspects of their management, including ensuring that the responsible harvesting of trees does not exceed the ability of the land to regenerate itself once replanted.
Social responsibility
Sustainability is a key factor in all investment decisions. We aim to manage our forests to the highest standards. Our expectation is that Wodd will be a net planter of trees, with the number of living trees increasing over time in all of our forests.
We aim:
*to obtain all existing accreditation for responsible and sustainable forest management and always aim to exceed all industry and regulatory standards.
*for a clear and constructive dialogue with local communities and other stakeholders. We are proud of our achievements and are keen to communicate these as widely as possible.
*to combine sound economic stewardship with our stewardship of natural resources. We provide shareholders with sustainable dividends and capital growth while ensuring that we do not do so at a significant environmental cost.
Our strategy and objectives
Our mission is to be the world leader in sustainable forestry management.
Our long-term strategy continues to be to:
1. Provide stable, long-term returns to our investors.
2. Be the preferred supplier of raw wood-based materials to a broad customer base.
3. Be the leading player in the forest industry regarding environmental and social conduct.
4. Expand existing and develop new large-scale projects.
5. Seek new ways of working to improve the sustainability of forests in the future.
Code of conduct
Stakeholders - We work with all of our stakeholders, ensuring woodlands and forests meet the needs of present and future society.
Respect - We value our colleagues and our stakeholders, valuing diversity and treating everyone with consideration.
Professional behaviour - We act with integrity and objectivity to achieve high standards of health and safety, quality and sustainability in everything we do.
Learning and development - We are always learning, developing the skills and knowledge to support the company.
Communication - We are open and honest with colleagues and with our stakeholders.
Environment - We seek to protect the environment for the enjoyment of both people and wildlife in the future.
Stakeholder engagement
The communities in Marland trust us. That is the foundation of our business.
We have built up trust by integrating corporate social responsibility and sustainability into the way we run our company.
We have incorporated ten principles (see page 23) into our working practices. These encourage responsible behaviour in the areas of the environment, anti- corruption, our workforce and human rights.
Our sustainable forestry management practices are long-term investments building value for our company and the society of Marland. We have strict targets that we strive to achieve on carbon storage and are now in surplus when we take into account our harvesting and transportation emissions.
We aim to make our forests and woodlands attractive and healthy places that can be visited and enjoyed. We offer basic facilities such as woodland paths, picnic sites and cycle tracks. We locate these away from areas where timber is being harvested so that visitors are safe at all times.
We actively seek to improve the environment by sustainable planting while improving the return to our shareholders.
Employees
Our employees are our greatest asset. They add a huge amount of value to Wodd. They work together as a team to ensure Wodd runs efficiently and effectively.
We have a diverse group of employees. Some of our best lumberjacks have worked with us for over 30 years. The work is hard, but they enjoy the communal spirit and work ethic encouraged by Wodd. Lumberjacks work in small groups in remote areas, sometimes camping for several weeks. They are happy to continue this work even though it can be difficult and dangerous.
Wodd encourages safe working practices and training.
We have been improving our gender balance, although there are still too few women working in the forests. We are pleased that we now have a number of female senior employees and directors.
Customer relevance
Being aware of our customers' needs has played a large part in our steady growth over the last few years. We value our customers and work hard at understanding their needs.
Our customers support sustainable forestry and are proud of our accredited status. We listened to our customers when they said they wanted to protect the environment and they have repaid us with their loyalty. Our customer base has increased over the last few years as they know we work to create value for them. We seek to generate value in all aspects of our business while continuing to offer excellent quality.
Customer care and satisfaction
We opened a customer care department to respond to customer queries and complaints quickly. Its focus is to respond to customer queries and complaints within an agreed time frame which depends on the complexity of the query. We are proud that we responded to 97.5% of queries within the agreed timeframe.
The number of repeat queries has fallen considerably as a result of this initiative.
Risks and uncertainties
Fluctuating demand
Wodd's principal activities rely on demand for timber, which is a basic raw material used in many industries.
Some of our customers operate in volatile or cyclical industries. For example, the building industry buys significant quantities of timber and timber-based products. The building industry can be affected significantly by movements in economic indicators such as interest rates, the availability of credit and the property market.
Selling prices fall in response to declining demand for timber. Wodd can reduce production in response because there is very little point in selling timber when prices are low. However, there are economies of scale associated with operating at higher capacities and so we can suffer increased costs when we manage output in this way.
The company regularly reviews the movement in market prices and seeks to obtain the best value for the company's products from existing and new customers.
International business
Many countries import large quantities of timber and their economies can further affect demand.
Apart from fluctuations in their economies, our ability to export to particular markets can be affected by trade disputes, tariffs, import restrictions and so on.
Exchange rate fluctuations
The company is exposed to foreign exchange risk. Pulpwood is priced in USD which can be volatile against the M$.
Wodd is able to utilise financial instruments to hedge against adverse currency movements; there is no guarantee that it will be possible to hedge against a particular change at an acceptable price, or that any attempt to hedge would be successful.
Employee safety
Forestry workers are highly skilled. Harvesting timber in a safe and efficient manner requires training and experience. Working in forests can be difficult and dangerous and we provide advanced safety training for all our lumberjacks. We make sure we have the most advanced safety equipment available for the workforce.
However, there is the risk that serious accidents can occur in remote areas which could be serious. We are insured fully for accidents.
Labour relations
Our forestry workers are unionised. There is an annual negotiation cycle for determining pay and working conditions. The involvement of the union tends to ensure that all companies in the industry pay broadly similar rates.
Production will be affected in the event that an agreement cannot be reached with union negotiators. It would be difficult to locate suitable temporary staff during a strike and the logistics of timber production would make industrial action, such as picketing vehicle entrances, highly effective.
Physical risks
Wodd may experience the impact of physical risks associated with forest assets such as fire, insect infestation or wind-blow in extreme weather.
Wodd's forests are managed, or insured as appropriate, in a manner to mitigate these. Advice on insect infestation is taken from the Forestry Authority.
Tax
Changes to tax and grant regimes governing forestry would have an adverse effect on the number of customers interested in investing in forestry and planting.
Changes in certain tax and grant regimes may adversely affect Wodd's financial performance.

A month later, you receive the following email:
Reference Material:
From: Hesham El-Sayed. Independent Non-executive
Director
To: Romuald Marek. Chief Finance Officer
Subject: Collapse of fuel supplier
Hi Romuald
I am writing to give you some advance notice of an internal audit investigation that has been commissioned by the Audit Committee Just over a year ago. Planejoos, a newly formed company, approached the management team at Airfield's Capital City International (CCI) airport and offered to take over refueling operations at Starport Planejoos offered a higher percentage of revenue than the existing supplier was paying CCI's management team agreed and appointed Planejoos rather than renew the existing supplier's contract.
CCI was unable to conduct the usual background and credit checks on Planejoos for two reasons. Firstly, Planejoos was a new company and so did not have an extensive credit history that could be checked Secondly CCI was under time pressure to reach a decision on whether to renew the existing supplier's contract or allow it to expire CCI's management team claimed that it had acted quickly in order to benefit from the additional revenue that could be earned from dealing with Planejoos The management team was acting on the basis that it had an ethical duty to maximise the wealth of Airfield's shareholders and that maximising revenues from fuel sales through this agreement with Planejoos was consistent with that ethical duty.
Unfortunately, as a new company. Planejoos struggled to obtain trade credit and the high demand for fuel put the company's cash flows under extreme pressure Receipts from sales lagged behind payments for inventory Planejoos has now collapsed, leaving a large trade receivable that CCI will have to write off as uncollectable CCI had permitted this receivable to accumulate rather than pressing for payment and so putting Planejoos under further pressure.
Fortunately, the previous fuel supplier was prepared to return to CCI.
Kind regards
Answer:
Explanation:
See the explanation below
Explanation:
Requirement: 1
The acceptance of Planejoos at Capital City International airport with out credit rating check is a sign of poor internal audit practices. The CCI is the biggest airport the Arrfied owned and amongst the world big airports. The Planejoos is a newer and inexperienced company without sound credit and financial history, the collapse of aviation fuel provider at a major airport is credit and reputaional risk The internal audit performance laking in Arrfied which is in the aviation business could put the business in danger and needs to be corrected. The poor performance of internal audit by not inusring compliance could make damage i.e. a terrorist could attack the aircraft and landside if properchecking are not done. The aviation business are vulnerable to hijacking, human trafficking and smuggling. A special attention must be invited to internal audit.
The overall performance of the internal audit and audit committee is questionable here. The audit committee is not formulated correctly. No non-executive director have sound financial expertise. Martin Harris is the only NED with financial expertise and taking him out of audit committee is not sign of good corporate governance. The new leadership at the audit committee with savvy of financial knowledge must be on the board.
Martin Harris should be taken on the board in replacement of Carmelita Tante. Revamp the internal audit department and startup a credit department which is also responsible to rating checking.
Arrfield must also think about to formulate a risk committee to check the risk and ensure that the risks are properly managed.
Requirement : 2
It is the duty of the management to maximize the shareholder's wealth, but a proper care must be taken while making any decision on behalf of the shareholders. It seems due care is not given to the decision and the decision was made in haste.
It is not only duty of the management to maximize wealth of the shareholder, they are supposed to protect the wealth of the shareholders. Any decision no taken within the risk appetite of the company may leads to breach of ethical principles.
The shareholders trust on the management that they will make the decisions in best interest of the company even if this is not is their own interest. Incase of the Planejoos the management has neglected the credit rating check any made the decision solely on the basis of prices that Planejoos quoted. It seems that this decision does not fit in the risk appetite and risk tolerance of the Arrfield.

A week later, Romuald Marek stops by your workspace and hands you a document.
The Board minute extract from Romuald can be viewed by clicking the Reference Material button above.
Reference Material
Board minutes extract: proposal to profit from ongoing strength of NS
Anna Obalowu Sole, Chief Operating Officer, reported that the strong NS was helping generate revenues from fuel sales. Discussion followed as to whether the strong N$ was likely to persist and whether a strong N$ benefits Arrfield overall.
Markus Jokel
a. Chief Executive Officer, stated that the Board should develop contingency plans that could be implemented if it seemed likely that the strong N$ would persist. In particular. Arrfield need not renew the contracts that permit aviation fuel suppliers to operate from its airports. Arrfield would then be free to create its own fuel sale business, buying fuel in bulk to replenish the storage tanks at each of its airports in Norland and then selling it directly to airlines He stated that this would almost certainly enhance Arrfield's share price Romuald Marek reminded the Board that four of Arrfield's six airports are located in Norland and that those airports charge for aeronautical and non-aeronautical services in N$.
Answer:
Explanation:
See the answer below in explanation
Explanation:
Requirement : 1
A strong domestic currency in the Aviation business makes the business more profitable. It is evident form interest rate parity that the exchange rate of currency appreciate as the interest rate fall. The interest rate of the Norland is lower than other countries will make the N$ appreciated as compare to the other countries.
A strong domestic currency is not always good for the Aviation business. It intrinsically involves the use of foreign currency on regular basis. A strong NS may decrease the revenues of the Arrfield because it will become costly for the airlines from abroad. The airlines may find airport of other nearby countries with cheaper currency which will allow them cost savings with the use of cheaper currency.
Requirement : 2
By starting aviation fail business by the Arrfield could increase the share price.
Suitability:
The aviation fuel business suits to Arrfield because of three reasons. 1- It will be taken by the market as backward integration. This will reduce the risk of the Arrfield significantly. 2- The companies in Norland with a strong currency are able to import cheaper fuel and offering discount to airlines. This can be profitable business. 3- The criticism by the environmentalists may be managed by taking corrective actions i.e. selling fuel at full price.
The Airfield could club the fuel charges into the landing, take off and terminal usage fee, this could ease the process for the airlines could make the airports more popular. The Arrfield could also manage the fuel inventory as per requirements because they have the schedule of the flights.
Acceptability:
The shareholders of the Arrfield will accept the proposal as it seems profitable and it may increase the shar price of the Arrfield share because of the material information regarding starting a new business line will give positive feed sign. The reputation risk arise from article a week before regarding selling cheaper fuel may also be mitigated by taking over the business and corrective actions may be taken.
The matter will not be appreciated by the companies they would wish to continue with Arrfield. They must also be satisfied on termination of contract.
Feasibility:
Arrfield have 4 major airports (three hub and a spoke) in Norland. The hub airports are big and planes are fueled with the underground pipelines and workforce work in close connection with the fuel companies. The Arrfield have the infrastructure to start its business of aviation fuel.

Hi,
Congratulations, you are now officially in charge of the transition team! I am confident that you will do an excellent job and that it will be an opportunity to enhance your career.
I realise that the transition team is expected to reduce the pressure on the Board, but I have been asked to keep an eye on things and to ensure that your team has everything that it needs. I won't interfere, but I will stay in touch.
There are a few matters that I think you should address as a matter of urgency.
* Firstly, we need to have plans in place to ensure that our information systems are ready. What changes will we have to make in order to best align the information system with the company's needs? I am not asking about hardware issues or the physical relocation, but the changes to the information system itself.
* Secondly, how might we make use of the data in our own records and external sources to ensure that the new Head Office is managed as efficiently as possible? Remember that the present Head Office is a large and complex operation in its own right and it costs a significant amount to run.
* Thirdly, our relocation will create a number of challenges for our corporate treasury team. I need you to identify the key challenges and suggest how they might be dealt with.
* Finally, I would like you to identify the criteria against which the success or failure of your team will be judged once the transition is complete. I need your recommendations to be relevant and measurable.

NEW QUESTION # 15
Wodd's Chairman enters your office:
"I am glad I caught you, I am looking for some advice, but I do not wish to involve your boss at this stage, or any of the other executive directors.
I have been approached by Darrell's Chairman concerning the possibility of a merger between our two companies. I was a little surprised because it has apparently, according to a press article, been in talks with at least one of our competitors and I suspect that it is keen to merge with any large company that can offer some synergy. I understand that Tabel, another major forestry company, has already rejected its proposal.
I happen to know that Darrell has invested a little too heavily in its new MDF factory. It is state of the art, but it has to operate at close to full capacity in order to be economic and Darrell just hasn't got sufficient forestry resources to keep the factory operating at full volume without destroying its own forests.
We are attractive to merge with because we own large forests that can sustain Darrell's needs. We don't manufacture MDF ourselves, but we have lots of experience of supplying this market with raw material. We would divert lots of this output to Darrell's factory. Darrell believes that it would be possible to dominate the MDF industry if it merged with a company such as ourselves. The fact that we were quite liquid at the end of last year also helps, because I understand that Darrell is having a few cash flow problems.
Its Chairman proposes a full merger. This will be achieved by the creation of a new parent company which will acquire existing equity in both companies through an exchange of shares. He and I will head a special nomination committee to select the most suitable Board for the new company and then I will step down from the Board while he continues as Chairman of the new company.
Needless to say, this is all highly confidential.
Do you think that it sounds as if there are potential and achievable synergies between Wodd and Darrell?
Would you regard it as a gross ethical breach to keep this conversation just between the two of us for the time being, without warning your boss, until I have had the chance to negotiate further with my counterpart at Darrell?" Reference Material:
