Mercury Motoring Co (Mercury) specialises in manufacturing engine parts for motor cars and the company has a diverse customer base but seven significant customers. The company’s year end was 30 September 2015.
During the year, a number of the company’s significant customers have experienced a fall in sales, and consequently they have purchased fewer items from Mercury. As a result, Mercury has paid a number of its suppliers later than usual and some of them have withdrawn credit terms meaning the company must pay cash on delivery. One of Mercury’s main suppliers is threatening legal action to recover the sums owing. As a result of the increased level of payables, the company’s current ratio has fallen below 1 to 0·9 for the first time.
Mercury has produced a cash flow forecast to 30 June 2016 and this shows net cash outflows until May 2016. Mercury has a loan of $2·3 million which is due for repayment in full by 30 September 2016.
The finance director has just informed the audit manager that there is a possible change in legislation which will result in one of Mercury’s top product lines becoming obsolete as it will not comply with the proposed law. The prepared cash flow forecasts do not reflect this possible event.

(b) Describe the audit procedures which you should perform. in assessing whether or not Mercury Motoring Co is a going concern. (5 marks)

Apart from choosing a partner for life and hopefully having a family of ones own,perhaps the most important decision that one takes in life concerns the choice of a career.It is a good idea if young people realise that there is a big difference between a career and ajob. A job can mean anything from doing the washing up in a restaurant during the univer-sity vacation to working ina corner shop. It may be that a particular job lasts for years,but unless it involves some aspect of special training leading to qualifications, it remains a job and not a career, There are of. course. exceptions to this generalisation For example.many pop singers are self-trained, but the suecessful ones think of their development astheir career.
Of course. it has to be said that certain careers require fairly low level qualifications before a person can enter a training programme or gain experience on the job, In Britain,being a policeman or a nurse only requires a person to have the basic school leaving certificate of four or five GCSEs. Unfortunately, with the same kind of qualifications, a police -man can earn a quite reasonable salary, while,ordinary nurses are among the worst paid professionals of that society. Of course, certain careers take years of training for example, if one wants to become an accountant,a doctor or a lawyer. Even senior teachers, particularly those working in universities. may be in full-time educational training for eight years.
It is essential that young people choose their career carefully. It is no good wanting to he a doctor if one cannot stand the sighi of blood! It is pointless considering the teaching profession if one doctors not like young people. Some people even have the most peruliar And unrealistic ideas of what they want to do. Take for example the case of a young man who rang up a radio programme about careers recently and said he wanted advice on how to become a lion tamer! It is very likely that lion tamers (and there are not that many around) start working with animals at a very early age. They are probably born into a show business family. The young man on the radio, on the other hand, did not even seem to like cats.

A.Choosing a partner for life and doing the washing up in a restaurant.
B.Choosing a partner for life and working in a corner shop.

Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out ;sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modem pharmacology (药物学)offers a lot tranquilizers (镇定剂)and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don’ t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug methods to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs,and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts,don’ t head for the drug store—try the following method.
Of all the mood-changing self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the best cure for a bad mood. “If you could keep the exercise,you’d be in high spirits,’’says Kathryn Lance,author of Running for Health and Beauty.
Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compare favorably to drugs as mood-raiser. Physical work such as housework,however,does little. The key is aerobic exercise—running, cycling, walking, swimming, or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate and circulation(循环),and improve the body’s use of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a time,three to five times a week. What is the main subject of the passage?
A.How to beat a bad mood
B.How to talk bad moods out.
