Expert Solution

The applicable portion is chapter 2M

The company is covered by Corporations Act 2001 if it is registered in Australia. It is not explicitly mentioned that the company is backed by personal guarantee of the shareholders.

The ACT requires identification of entities which are required to prepare financial report.

Entities which are required to present financial reports are the entities where the ownership and management has a disconnected relationship and where the users having financial ownership and interest in the entity are dependent on the financial report for making and evaluating resource allocation decisions. This is not the case for Bands End where each shareholder is a director and is involved day to day operations of the company.

The company has to prepare the financial report if any one of the shareholders requests for it in writing since each shareholder holds more than 5% voting shares. However, whether the financial report has to comply with all the accounting standards or whether it has to be audited will depend on the purpose and nature of request.
