It is engaged in food processing, supplying all the main supermarket chains with first class process meat products. During the last few years the company has been difficult because of the BSE and Foot and Mouth disease made adeclining demand for meat product. The bad outstanding achievement stopped in 2004 and a partial rebound in the market produced an increase in turnover by nearly 15%. It is expected that thisrebound in the market will gather momentum over the coming year and the SSP plc is planning totake even greater strides forward by opening a new processing plant in Glasgow.As requested in the chiefexecutive s ’memo of 30 December, here is my report summarisingand analysising the financial position of the SSP plc for the year 2003 and 2004.OutlineThe main body of the report will evaluate five parts:Part 1--- Analyze the users of financial information and the purpose of using.Part 2--- State of financial source and categorize with their characteristics.Part 3---Explain the cash flow statement of SSP plc.Analyze the recent financial performance and position of the SSP plc.(Including my recommendations about how to improvement of business performance) FindingsSection 1. Users of financial accounts.Users of financial statements are a group of people or organizations who use the information tomake evaluations and decisions. Users of financial information can be divided into two categories:internal and external users.Now, I will use a table to show you the users’ purpose and sources of information they use to g statements.Section 2. Source of financesTo run a business, organizations require finance for different proposes and for varying lengths of time. In the finance, we divide sources of capital into two categories: equity capital and loan capital. Equity capital is the finance provided by the owner and there is no interest to pay. Loan capitalrefers to money that is borrowed from a source outside the business. The interest of loan capitalmust be paid. Sources of finances could be clarified into short, medium and long term. The short-term refers to finance that are borrowed for a period of no more than one year. The medium-term refers to funds that are borrowed for a period of between two and ten years. Long-term refers tofunds that are borrowed for a period of more than ten years.In the case study, the source of finances of SSP plc is: trade creditors, tax, bank overdraft, debentures, ordinary share capital and the retained profits from last account period.Short-term sources:1.Trade creditors:Trade creditors are produced when the purchase of raw materials or stock is delaying to pay, thus, there is more cash which would be used for other uses. There is also an interest free way ofraising finance. However, the credit could lead to poor relations with suppliers and the customers may forfeit discounts.The credit is 544,000£ in 2003 and it decreased to 405,000 in£2004. The percentage of decrease is25.56%. The decrease of credit infers that SSP plc has a good financial situation that it has a strongability to pay credits back to suppliers. This could improve the relationship with suppliers.2.Bank overdraft:Bank account holders can prearrange with the bank to draw cheques to a greater value thanthe actual balance in the account. Interest should be paid by customers and bank charges will apply where an overdraft limit has been exceeded. Bank overdraft is flexible and cheap. It has a low cost. Some small bank overdraft even has a free of charge.SSP plc had no overdraft but the number increased to 86,000 in 2004£. The increase shows that the company borrowed money from bank for its expansion in Glasgow.Long-term sources:1.Debentures:Debentures are loans make to companies that carry a fixed rate of interest. The company assets normally secure debentures. Debentures have a fixed time period or an open time period. The shareholders are not debenture holders. A debenture interest is paid as an expense not an appropriation of profit.SSP plc has a fixed debenture ( £1,560,000) in the year of 2003 and 2004. It tells us thecompany’ s fixed assets are steady.2.Ordinary shares:Ordinary shareholders receiving pay-outs from company after preference shareholders are paid.Ordinary share dividends are not fixed and subject to company’ periodicals performances and decisions of management in paying dividend.In SSP Company, the ordinary share capital is 1,950,000 in£both 2003 and 2004. It infers that the company has a steady operation situation.3.Retained ProfitsThe retained profit is the finance brought from the last financial period. It is not fixed andmay be a negative number. It presents operational situation of last period.The retained profits decreased from 505,000 to£ 420,000£. The percentage change ofdecrease is 16.83%. The lower ratio shows us the company had made fewer profits in 2003 then it was in 2002.Section 3. Ratio Analysis1.Major inflows is Net cash flow operating activates of 1,345,000.£Major outflow is Payments to acquire fixed assets, which takes 984,000.£2.Ratio AnalysisProfitability Ratios:Gross Profit Percentage=Gross profit/Turnover x 100% 2003: GPP= £7,000,000/ 11,674,000£ x 100%=59.96%2004: GPP= £8,037,000/ 13,382,000£ x 100%=60.06%Analysis: The increase of ratio is a good sign. The positive trend can be an indication that stock control of meat product has improved, demand for the meat product has increased after the diseases, or purchasing policies have improved. The managers should keep the good trend and go on develop it, such as improving marketing strategy, setting better pricing policy, or improving stock control.Net Profit Percentage=Net Profit before Taxation/ Turnover x 100%2003: NPP= £1,182,000/ 11,674,000£ x 100%=10.13%2004: NPP= £901,000/ 13,382,000£ x 100%=6.73%Trend: DecreaseAnalysis: The decrease of the ratio is a bad sign that it indicates a low profit of the company. From the P&L Account of the SSP plc, we know that although the gross profit increased, the operation cost is much higher in 2004; it leads to a decreasein net profit. So the managers should think about how to decrease our operation cost to help our company earn more profit.Liquidity Ratios:Current Ratio=Total Current Assets/Total Current Liabilities2003: CR= £1,195,000/ 767,000=1£.562004: CR= £1,248,000/ 701,000=1£.78Trend: IncreaseAnalysis: the increase of ratio is a good sign. Generally speaking a healthy current ratio is at least 2:1. The 1.56 and 1.78 indicate the company is a little bit over trading and have difficulty in meeting its short-term debts. The main reason for the increase is the increase in the total current assets and decrease in the total current liabilities. I suggest that the company may keep more profit for the short-term debts.The Acid Test Ratio=Liquid Assets/Current Liabilities2003: ( 1,195,000£- 608,000)/£ 767,000=0£.772004: ( 1,248,000£- 796,000)/£ 701,000=0£.64Trend: DecreaseAnalysis: The decrease is a bad sign. The ratio should be 1:1. But the ratio in both of 2003 and2004 is less that 1. And unfortunately, the ratio is still decreasing. SSP plc meets a liquidityproblem that the liquid assets decrease.The company managers should pay attention to thisratio and organization’ s development.Efficiency Ratios:Fixed Asset Turnover=Turnover/Fixed Assets2003: 11,674,000/£ 4,017,000=2£.91 times2004: 13,382,000/£ 4,318,000=3£.10 timesTrend: IncreaseAnalysis: Where this ratio gas increase, this is a good sign. It indicates that the existing fixedassets are generating more sales and maybe investment in new fixed assets gas could bebeen paid off. Managers of SSP plc should develop and focus on it.Debtors Collection Period=Debtors/Turnover x 3652003: 306,000/£ 11,674,000£ x 365=9.57 days2004: 452,000/£ 13,382,000£ x 365=12.33 daysTrend: IncreaseAnalysis: It is a bad sign that there is an increase in DCP. It indicates that SSP’ s may have apoor credit control of poor invoicing system. The bad debts may also increase. The leaders ofSSP should check their invoicing and reminder system to keep the ratio a proper range.Investment Ratios:Interest Cover=Profit Before Interest & Tax/Interest Charges2003: 1,416,000/£ 234,000=6£.052004: 1,135,000/£ 234,000=4£.85Trend: DecreaseAnalysis: This ratio shows how capable the company is of covering its interest charges. Thedecrease is not good because the company is less able to meet its interest payments. But theratio is still in a reasonable range. Leaders should try to increase company’ s pro ratio a high level.Debt Ratio=Total Debts/Total Assets x 100%2003: ( 767,000+££1,560,000)/( 4,017,000+£ 1,195,000)£ x 100%=44.65%2004: ( 701,000+££1,560,000)/( 4,318,000+£ 1,248,000)£ x 100%=40.62%Trend: DecreaseAnalysis: It is a good sign that the ratio increased. However, a healthy ratio should keep around 50%. It indicates that SSP has fewer liabilities or keeps more assets. The sign should be kept by managers.3.RecommendationAfter reading and analyzing three accounts from SSP Company, I found some problems with it and now I will present my suggestions about the future management in these two parts.Operational recommendationA ratio of Net Profit Percentage shows us that SSP plc has a high expenditure in operation cost.It also indicates that the company has a low level of cost control. Therefore, I suggest that SSP should try to decrease the costs of sales and the operation cost, such as adopting newmanagement system and using contractors to find distribution channels but to find them itself.Financial recommendationFor the source of finance, SSP has a bad performance of financial operating. In the Cash Flow Statement, the Financing is £0, but the company is planning expansion in Glasgow. The main inflow of the company is the sales. It is a dangerous phenomenon if the company wants to use the turnover to expanse its business because it is impossible to use the current cash to support long-term investment. So I suggest that the company may increase the number of share capital or make more debentures to get more long-term capital for expansion.ConclusionBy analyzing the P&L Account, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement, we can infer that SSP plc has a good operational performance. However, there are still many parts to improve and develop to help the company maximize profits.ReferenceRay H.

All the materials in this report is come from Internet and business report’s data analysis.More and more research indicates that Green ICT is benefit strategies for all the country, company and people, and it is benefit for environment. Green ICT is regarded as one of the effective strategies, for many firms, the operating costs savings from reduced energy consumption can leave them with more resources for other vital ICT initiatives. The reason is the more pollution, the worse influence for us. More and more government pay attention on Green ICT indicates that great majority country and people realized the pollution of earth and we need to change our life style to decrease pollution.This report suggests ways to improve company’s level on Green ICT to promote company’s long-term development. This change has improving strategies to adapt the development of society. Then, this report will analyses Green ICT in Communication Industry, Realizing the Potential for ICT enabled low Carbon Growth in China and update to Windows 7 three ways to explain the environment and the need for sustainability, Green business practices, Greener ICT and Customer demand for environment-friendly products.This report recommendation is:a.Reminds people pay more attention on Green ICTb.Promotes the development of Green ICTc.Change their represent ICT to Green ICT, such as: change system toWindows 7, improve technology so that extend product life and so on.The Future of Green ICTIntroductionThe purpose of this report to analyze the influence on company by Green ICT, evaluate the effect of Green ICT and suggest ways to improve company’s level on Green ICT to promote company’s long-term development. Nowadays, more and more person and company pay more attention on Green ICT. More industry pays more attention on Green ICT to decrease the pollution and cost, this is good for long-term development. And government published some policy to manage and decrease high-pollution industry, and limit high-pollution industry develop to protect our environment. So, Green ICT is important obviously, company need to change as Green ICT as soon as possible. The report outlines four points:munication Industryb.Realizing the Potential for ICT enabled low Carbon Growth in Chinac.Update System with Windows 7Some suggestions/recommendation is provided in this report.FindingsCommunication IndustryThe Green ICT’s communication’s most visible benefits are: the reduction in environmental negative impact and cost savings. At present, the energy-saving emission reduction strategies operated by China’s communication industry are lack of technological support, b ut developed country’s communication industry is using Green ICT technologies. Foreign country’s industry has low energy consumption, the huge role in gradual promoting is spread by the applications of ICT in several industries. Recommended energy conservation strategy for China’s communication industry can do it in the same way as foreign. We need change our communication industry strategy by the use of Green ICT and adopt some Green business practices.Recent years, government, international telecommunication organization and telecommunication operating company have researched in different industries to explore methods of energy saving energy. Industry of ICT makes a huge change in some country, ICT helps save energy and promote social development, but also raise the awareness of the role of energy conservation in new areas. Along with the voice of worldwide energy saving, more and more industry starts the research in Green ICT.Some research and date indicates that it is necessary to finish telecommunication’s energy saving.In 2008, GeSI (Global e –Sustainability Initiative) published a report “SMART 2020: Enabling the low Carbon Economy in the information A ge”, explain Green ICT has more than five-times affect.The analysis of all fields' ICT emission reduction effect by GeSIGeSI predicted that until 2020, ICT technology can reduce 15% of worldwide carbon emissions.American department of energy prove from ten years research, technology of Green ICT is more useful than technology now, and predict that until 2030, focus on semiconductor manage smart grid, electronic business, telecommunication and several field can reduce the energy consumption 25% approximately, it is nearly 27.7% of total national energy consumption offset. It is a huge contribution.All the data show that Green ICT in communication industry has a bright futureand it is benefit for environment, company can do some Green business practices on communication of Green ICT, it is good for company in long-term objective.Low Carbon Growth in ChinaLow Carbon is due to hold sustaining economic growth and controlling carbon emissions. China has recognized that ICTs can play an important role in driving low carbon growth. And they take action to reduce carbon growth to protect environment.The most serious problem in environment about earth we face is greenhouse effect, and carbon dioxide is the key point cause greenhouse effect, so we need to reduce the carbon emissions. Energy industry can take action to achieve low carbon growth:a.Develop a firm level inventory of carbon emissions, and understand therole that carbon plays in their organizations. Set down a comprehensive greenhouse gas emission targets, indentify the most effective reduction opportunities.b.Identify opportunities. Let some special staff to evaluate carbon dioxideemission and find the solution.c.Incentives staff to do work in green ways to reduce carbon dioxideemission.d.Set and manage towards to meet a reduction goal is crucial tocommunicating progress to investors and regulators, and to engaging employees, suppliers and customers.But develop low carbon growth need enough funds sustainability, so company need increase profit to develop low carbon growth and adapt long-term development and social demand. Company can increase in ICT asset base creates GDP. From the data indicates that each RMB of increase in ICT asset base creates around RMB 1.6 of GDP per year. From the chart, we know that more and more country realized that ICT can increase GDP.RMB of GDP per RMB of ICT investment in OECO countriesAnd China ranks lower globally in terms of enabling environment for ICT, company can take some Green business practices to increase company completely in long-term. China has a large space to develop in ICT about carbon.Update System with Windows 7Windows 7 is an operating system produced by Microsoft for use on personal computers, including home and business desktops, laptops, netbooks, tablet PCs, and media center PCs. It was released to manufacturing on July 22, 2009, and became generally available for retail worldwide on October 22, 2009, less than three years after the release of its predecessor, Windows Vista. Windows 7 is Greener ICT than windows XP and Vista.Windows 7 update so much system and technology, it help computer save energy and reduce pollution of carbon dioxide. Among Windows 7's new features are advances in touch and handwriting recognition, support for virtual hard disks, improved performance on multi-core processors, improved boot performance,DirectAccess, and kernel improvements. Unlike Windows Vista's many new features, Windows 7 was an incremental upgrade designed to work with Vista-compatible applications and hardware. Presentations given by Microsoft in 2008 focused on multi-touch support, an updated Windows shell with a new taskbar, referred to internally as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements. Some standard applications that have been included with prior releases of Microsoft Windows, including Windows Calendar, Windows Mail, Windows Movie Maker, and Windows Photo Gallery, are not included in Windows 7; most are instead offered separately at no charge as part of the Windows Essentials suite.With the increase quality of life level, more and more people understand the important of Green ICT, and pollution of daily life is more and more serious. People realize that environment-friendly products can save energy and reduce daily pollution. To sum up, Green products are gaining in popularity among consumers:From the above chart, we can see that Green products are gaining in popularity among consumers. According to a study by Booz&Co., 10% of consumers are willing to pay a higher price for green products. And another 60% are interested in environmentally sound products, although they are not willing to pay more for them. So we need provide more environment-friendly products as customer demand.Because environment-friendly product is more and more popular, every companyand family was changing their system to Windows 7 as environment-friendly product in their computer and environment-friendly product is more and more popular. The CEO of Microsoft said Windows 7 is the most green and saving-energy system. All the system is easier to use, faster and simpler. It helps user use system efficiency and safety.ConclusionsTo sum up, Green ICT is important for the development of company. Increasing demand for Green ICT innovations will generate global opportunities for company’s ICT businesses and professionals, this is the same as company’s object and goals.Communication industry: do some green business practices as foreign country to reduce energy emission.Low carbon growth in China: to protect environment by low carbon growth in China, and take more keep environmental sustainability.Windows 7: Windows 7 is the Greener ICT than Windows XP and help user more efficiency and easy to use it and this is customer demand.RecommendationsEveryone believes that governments and company can take many actions to encourage ICT-enabled energy efficiency, clean energy innovation, and sustainable growth. Key areas that should be explored in more detail in relation to individual technologies are:a.In telecommunication infrastructure, we can do some networkoptimization to decrease energy emissions.b.In personal computers, we can improvements in power management ofPCs and update system to Windows 7, switch from desktop to laptop computers and from cathode ray screens to LCD screens.c.And extend product life is also important.d.In telecoms devices, do smart chargers and prevent electronic run off,when we don’t use telecoms devices, set low energy standby.Reference1.Baidu Library.

a. Strategy is getting it right and doing it right. It is very important to organizations. Choosing strategy is direct effect organization’s development and future. And every strategy have advantages and disadvantages, so in the different complex situation, we can adopt different strategies to solve problems. Now I will choose four possible strategies which the organizations may adopt.The first is cost leadership strategy. Cost leadership is the low-cost leader in any market gains competitive advantage from being able to produce at the lowest cost. Company can use low cost strategy defeat the competitors among the marketing environment.The second is differentiation. A competitive strategy that allows a company to sell its products for a premium price. This emphasizes creating superior products, products with unique or more desirable features or design.The third is focus strategy. The generic strategy of focus rests on the choice of a narrow competitive scope within an industry. The focuser selects a segment or group of segments in the industry and tailors its strategy to serving them to theexclusion of others. The focus strategy has two variants. One is in cost focus a firm seeks a cost advantage in its target segment, the other is in differentiation focus a firm seeks differentiation in its target segment.The fourth is diversification. This is where we market completely new products to new customers. There are two types of diversification, namely related and unrelated diversification. Related diversification means that we remain in a market or industry with which we are familiar.b. During the 1980s and 1990s, JD Wetherspoon used broad differentiation strategy. Compare other pubs; JD Wetherspoon is special and different. They sell a wide range of real ale beers at relatively low price; good quality wine is available; they don’t play music or TV programmers; especially the non-smoking and toilet design.Because its clean comfortable atmosphere and low price high quality products, it bring some benefits to JD Wetherspoon. They provide good services, such as cheap beer, good conversation and solid architecture with 24-hours. It is notonly attracting more new customers, but also improves the customers’ loyalty. Then the purchases will increase.Their employees have high loyalty and good quality, it is easy to manage and control. Then it will steadily develop the company’s future.Their delicious food and thoughtful service can build a good reputation and good brand image, and maybe the company will become a trend.JD Wetherspoon can expend to help the company increase market share, make more profits.c. In 1980-1990s, business strategy is broad differentiation strategy. While in the 21st century, business strategy is focus differentiation strategy.In 1980-1990s, they don’t play music or watch TV. But in the 21st century, they have plasma screens and it can watch football.In 1980-1990s, the pub just has only one business. But in the 21st century, the pub serve breakfast and begun developingbudget hotel accommodation.In 21st century, JD Wetherspoon Removed price incentives to drink larger measures of spirits and reduced the amount of alcohol. But In 1980-1990s, they just sold real ale beers and good quality wine.d. J D Wetherspoon need to consider some factors when change its business strategy. The first is policy. From the case, we can see during 2002-2004, government concern about binge drinking and the consequent ant special behaviors, particularly in city centers. Before changing a policy, they need to concern about whether the new policy could make more profits.The second is internal environment. Because the customers demand increases, J D Wetherspoon should improve employee’s quality, make the service more thoughtful. Before changing a policy, they need to concern about whether the new policy is suits different customers.The third is social. In this case, the supermarket began selling drinks, encourages drinking at home and increase in the numberof bars. It increased more competitors. So before changing policy, they need to consider about whether the policy can bring more customers and whether could reduce competition with other companies.e. Business strategy is the plans choices and decisions used to guide a company to greater profitability and success. It should be designed to bring success and avoid failure. Strategy choice is described of deciding which strategies can benefits organization’s future. This strategy decision is very important to company. From the case, in 21st century, J D Wetherspoon adopts the differentiation business strategy. There are some new products like provide a dedicated family dining area and serve the breakfast. The new market was begun developing budget hotel accommodation known as ‘Wetherlodges’. In a competitive pub s market, J D Wetherspoon is different from other pubs by using this way, it had already open the new market for increasing the competitiveness. It is an attractive pubs for customers. Then this strategy brings more profit for JD Wetherspoon.f. JD Wetherspoon is operating well now, but it still needs to consider some key issues: The one is need to enhance communication between managers and employees. This management method can help managers and employees exchanging their ideas and suggestions. It also can help company deeply develop, improve service and products. For some problems, they can solve these problems at once. The other is needed to consider whether the business strategy is flexible. When the environment changes, the strategy can quickly respond and find a way to constant changes.。
