We could start with the advantages of mobile phones. There are many things that we could do with mobile phones. With the advancement of technology，more and more features are being added to the mobile phones which make them more useful. In addition to making calls，mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging，email，Internet access，business applications，gaming and photography. We can bring them everywhere，and can be reached by others anytime. They make the world smaller，bringing people together no matter where they are.
But we could have some risks when using our mobile phones. We may have accidents when we use them while driving. Some studies show that mobile phones can do harm to our bodies;and materials in mobile phones could damage our environment.
Since there are so many risks，why do we still have mobile phones？This is because these risks or disadvantages can be overcome. For example，while we are driving we can easily pull up our car if we really need to use the phone. Mobile phone manufacturers are reducing the radiation of mobile phones to avoid health risks.
Though there are both pros and cons of using mobile phones，we could easily see that there are more advantages than disadvantages. Moreover，mobile phones are becoming cheaper，which might be another reason why mobile phones are increasingly used today.

The chief executive officer (CEO) of Faoilean Co has just returned from a discussion at a leading university on the ‘application of options to investment decisions and corporate value’. She wants to understand how some of the ideas which were discussed can be applied to decisions made at Faoilean Co. She is still a little unclear about some of the discussion on options and their application, and wants further clarification on the following:
(i) Faoilean Co is involved in the exploration and extraction of oil and gas. Recently there have been indications that there could be significant deposits of oil and gas just off the shores of Ireland. The government of Ireland has invited companies to submit bids for the rights to commence the initial exploration of the area to assess the likelihood and amount of oil and gas deposits, with further extraction rights to follow. Faoilean Co is considering putting in a bid for the rights. The speaker leading the discussion suggested that using options as an investment assessment tool would be particularly useful to Faoilean Co in this respect.
(ii) The speaker further suggested that options were useful in determining the value of equity and default risk, and suggested that this was why companies facing severe financial distress could still have a positive equity value.
(iii) Towards the end of the discussion, the speaker suggested that changes in the values of options can be measured in terms of a number of risk factors known as the ‘greeks’, such as the ‘vega’. The CEO is unclear why option values are affected by so many different risk factors.
Required:
(a) With regard to (i) above, discuss how Faoilean Co may use the idea of options to help with the investment decision in bidding for the exploration rights, and explain the assumptions made when using the idea of options in making investment decisions. (11 marks)
(b) With regard to (ii) above, discuss how options could be useful in determining the value of equity and default risk, and why companies facing severe financial distress still have positive equity values. (9 marks)
(c) With regard to (iii) above, explain why changes in option values are determined by numerous different risk factors and what ‘vega’ determines. (5 marks)

The launch of several new products and a rapid increase in exports had raised a number of problems at Loho. These included problems in meeting order deadlines, whilst a number of operational constraints had meant that some orders had been delivered to customers late. The increase in overseas business had also, according to Sonja Tan, the financial director, increased the overall risk profile of the business. Credit risk had risen substantially as had a range of risks associated with exporting and overseas investment. In addition to a growth from 150 to 600 employees in its home country, Loho also had recruited a further 200 people overseas in order to facilitate business in those countries.
As part of her continuing professional development (CPD), Sonja Tan, the finance director who was also a professional accountant, had been to a seminar on improving internal controls (IC). She believed that at this point in its growth, Loho could benefit from tighter internal controls. Speaking about this to the board on her return from the seminar, she reminded her colleagues that sound internal controls could only provide ‘reasonable assurance’ and that any IC system had inherent limitations and could never be totally effective whatever changes were made to improve them. This came as a surprise to some board members who assumed, because internal controls were often very expensive, that they should be guaranteed to be fully effective.
Required:
(a) Construct the case for establishing an internal audit function at Loho Company. (10 marks)
(b) Explain the reasons why many internal controls can never be guaranteed to be fully effective and discuss why ICs being ‘very expensive’ are no guarantee of their effectiveness. (9 marks)
(c) The finance director Sonja Tan learned about improved internal controls as part of her continuing professional development (CPD).
Required:
Explain the advantages of continuing professional development (CPD) for professional accountants such as finance director Sonja Tan. (6 marks)

Suppose a man wanted to reach a distant star. Even if he traveled his whole life, he would have to move faster than the speed of light. Nothing can move that fast except light itself.
Strange things happen to an object when it moves rapidly. The object weighs more. An object moving at 86 percent of the speed of light is twice as heavy as it is at rest. A stick appears shorter. A clock runs more slowly. A man would not age so fast as he would on the earth.
Light travels more than 186, 000 miles a second, or about 11 million miles a minute. In one year, light travels six trillion(万亿) miles. That great distance is called a light-year. It is used to measure distances in space.
The star closest to our sun is Alpha Centrauri (半人马座a星). It is more than four lightyears away. If one traveled at the speed of light, he could make a round trip to Alpha Centauri in nine years. But, even at that speed, he could not reach Alcaid (北斗星)in the handle of the Big Dipper. A one-way journey to Alcaid would take almost 200 years!
Why do we measure the distance in light-years instead of miles？
A．Units of light-years sound better.
B．Using light-years reduced the number of figures used.
C．We used to measure distance in light-years long ago.
D．We do not make mistakes when we use light-years.
