He later sued the company for having a lack in the safety measures for its employees, damages and other amounts mentioned in the claim is 1.5 million.

III. At the year end, the company had 950 laptops of a good brand each costing Rs.65,000. There was rising trend of prices in the market, which influenced the company’s sale policy and these computers were retained in stock till July 25, 2008 when market price started falling and within one week’s time declined to Rs.68,000. This situation forced the management to start selling. However, the whole stock could be sold till August 22, 2008 and fetched total sale proceeds of Rs.40.85 million.
IV. The Government announced on 5th July that the rates of taxes will be changed, and all changes shall be applied retrospectively.

VI. The Board of Directors announced on August 25th a 20% stock dividend for the year ended 30th June, 2008.
