Morning Star Ltd was registered on 1 July 2020, as a company with a constitution limiting the shares that could be offered to 5 000 000 Ordinary shares (including all classes) and 2 000 000 preference shares. The company issued a prospectus dated 1 July 2020 inviting the public to apply for 3 000 000 Ordinary A class shares at $3.00 per share. The terms of the shares on issue are $1.50 on application, $1.00 on allotment and $0.50 to be called within six months of allotment before 31 December 2020.

If the issue is oversubscribed the directors will make a pro-rata issue of shares and the excess application money will be applied to allotment and calls before any refunds will be given.

On 15 July, the directors also decided to issue 500 000 non-voting Ordinary B shares as fully paid to the promoters for a payment of $2.00 per share.

On 30 July, applications for the Ordinary A class shares closed. Applications for 4 500 000 shares in total had been received with applicants for 3 000 000 shares paying the full price and 1 500 000 shares paying only the application fee.

On 1 August, the Ordinary A class shares were allotted on a pro-rata basis with all allotment money owed paid by the 30 August.

The company paid share issue costs of $10,000 for the issuing of Ordinary A shares on 1 September. The share issue costs related to legal expenses associated with the share issue and fees associated with the drafting and advertising of the prospectus and share issue.

The call on the Ordinary A shares was made on 15 Septmber and due by 30 September. All call money was received except for the call on 100 000 shares. The directors met and forfeited the shares on 15 October. On 30 October, the forfeited shares were reissued at $2.40 fully paid to $3.00. Costs associated with reissuing the forfeited shares totalled $4,000. The remaining money was refunded to the defaulting shareholders on 15 November.

On 1 January 2021, Morning Star Ltd issued via a private placement semi-annual coupon debentures (which pay interest every 6 months) with a nominal value of $700,000. The debenture term is three years and the coupon rate is 8% per year. The market requires a rate of return of 10% per year. The money came in and the debentures were allotted on the same date. The first interest payment will occur on 30 June 2021.

On the same day (1 January), Monring Star issued 50,000 options for class A shares with an exercise price of $2.5 each. It costs $0.50 per option. These options expires on 30 June 2021.

The company issued via a private placement 400,000 redeemable preference shares of $2.00 each on 30 June 2021. The shares offer a fixed dividend of 7 per cent per annum. The shares are later redeemed to non-voting Ordinary Class B shares at the choice of the shareholders on 30 June 2022.

By 30 June 2021, 40,000 options were exercised. The remaining options are lapsed.

Prepare an extract of the statement of change in equity to show the composition and movement of the ordinary shares account of Morning Star Ltd as at 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022. Please provide the opening balance, change in share capital and closing balance of each classes of shares.

In 2020, the Alnoor Company purchased from Hamoorthe right to be the sole distributor in Muscat governance of a product called Zelenex in 2021.

Alnoor reports inventory using the periodic FIFO assumption. Late in 2021, the following information is available concerning the inventory of Zelenex:

Beginning inventory, 1/1/2021 (10,000 units @ $30)

$ 300,000

Purchases (40,000 units @ $30)

1,200,000

Sales (35,000 units @ $60)

2,100,000

By the end of the year, the purchase price of Zelenex had risen to $40 per unit. On December 28, 2021, three days before year-end, Alnoor is in a position to purchase 20,000 additional units of Zelenex at the $40 per unit price. Due to the increase in purchase price, Alnoor will increase the selling price in 2022 to $80 per unit. Inventory on hand before the purchase, 15,000 units, is sufficient to meet the next six months’ sales and the company does not anticipate any significant changes in purchase price during 2022.

ETHICS 445

Scenario

It is 2020, and General Foryota Company opens a plant in which to build a new mass-produced hover-craft. This hover-craft will work using E-85 Ethanol, will travel up to 200 mph, and will reduce pollution worldwide at a rate of 10 percent per year. It is likely that when all automobiles in the industrial world have been changed over to hovercrafts, emission of greenhouse gasses may be so reduced that global warming may end and air quality will become completely refreshed.

However, the downside is that during the transition time, GFC's Hover-Vee (only available in red or black), will most likely put all transportation as we know it in major dissaray. Roadways will no longer be necessary, but new methods of controlling traffic will be required. Further, while the old version of cars are still being used, Hover-vee's will cause accidents, parking issues, and most likely class envy and warfare. The sticker price on the first two models will be about four times that of the average SUV (to about $200,000.) Even so, GFC's marketing futurists have let them know that they will be able to pre-sell their first three years of expected production, with a potential waiting list which will take between 15 and 20 years to fill.

The Chief Engineer (CE) of GFC commissions a study on potential liabilities for the Hover-vees. The preliminary result is that Hover-vees will likely kill or maim humans at an increased rate of double to triple over automobile travel because of collisions and crashes at high speeds -- projected annual death rates of 100,000 to 200,000. However, global warming will end, and the environment will flourish.

The U. S. Government gets wind of the plans. Congress begins to discuss the rules on who can own and operate Hover-vees. GFC's stock skyrockets. The Chief Engineer takes the results of the study to the Chief Legal Counsel (CLC), and together they agree to bury the study, going forward with the production plans. The Chief Project Manager (CPM), who has read the study and agreed to bury it, goes ahead and plans out the project for the company, with target dates and production deadlines.

Somebody sent a secret copy of the report to you at your home address. It has no information in it at all, except for the report showing the proof of the increase in accidents and deaths. The report shows, on its face, that the CE, CLC, CPM, and your Congressional Representative have seen copies of this report. On the front there are these words typed in red: They knew — they buried this. Please save the world!

As an Engineer on the GFC team, I feel a very loyal tie to my boss and my company/country. I have mortgage, and family to feed. It is likely if I blow the whistle on this report, I will lose my job and my livelihood. I'm not even sure who wrote the study in the envelope or who actually sent it to me.

Utilizing my profession's code of ethics, what should be my first step?

Who should I talk to first?

should I go to the press?

should I go to your boss?

Should I react at all?

What professional ethics codes with international scope can I use to see the guidance given for dilemmas such as this.
