Small and medium-sized businesses have had a hard
time over the last few years. In the UK, thousands of businesses have gone
bankrupt as result of declining markets, increased competition from abroad and
rising overheads. However another factor which is common to many bankruptcies is
the lack of cashflow caused by late payment of invoices.In 1996 a survey
by Thornton Hughes International discovered that more than a quarter of
businesses in Europe have to wait more than 90 days to be paid and 8% of
businesses are forced to wait more than 120 days. Late payers often say they
settle their accounts late because of recession but there is evidence that many
firms are using late payment as a method of improving their own cashflow. A
survey shows that 36% of delays in payment are intentional. By delaying the
settlement of their accounts businesses transfer their financial problems to
other businesses. It is usually the smallest firms that suffer most from this
kind of behavior.There are now plans to do something about this problem.
The European Commission (the governing body of the European Union) suggests
there should be legal penalties for late payment. Late payers should be legally
required to pay interest on the debt. To be effective, the interest rate would
be high. Finally, a system of fins (to be paid in addition to the interest
payments) should be introduced. A recent survey in the UK revealed that 35% of
transactions are carried out without any contract at all. It was therefore
unclear when payments were due. In Denmark even though the problem is smaller,
the authorities have decided to deal with it by automatically applying a legal
payment period when there is no written contract. This ensures that payment is
fixed at 30 days after the creditor has requested payment.Many of the
cash problems of small and medium-sized companies are, in fact, caused by
national and local government agencies settling their accounts late. The
European Commission has proposed that this area should be looked at. They point
out that in some countries, for example the USA, interest on arrears is already
paid automatically by public authorities. In France cities publish dates of
their payments to contractors to show how quickly they settle their
debts.The European Commission suggests several other ways of dealing
with the problem of late payment. Firstly, they suggest offering courses for
small businesses. These courses would include legal advice on drafting contracts
and on methods of obtaining payment for outstanding debts. Secondly, they would
offer workshops to the public officials who are responsible for dealing with
contracts. Thirdly, they suggest national campaign to persuade large
organizations not to take advantage of their greater financial strength and size
when they are dealing with smaller businesses. Part of the publicity would be
the message that if we work together to make payment periods shorter we can help
not only the financial health of small and medium-sized businesses, but also
that of the economy as a whole.

填空题 ·Read this text taken from an article about
accounting. ·Choose the best sentence to fill each of the
gaps. ·For each gap (9-14), mark one letter (A-H) on your Answer
Sheet. ·Do not use any letter more than once.
Accounting Accounting is the process of
systematically collecting, analyzing, and reporting financial information.
Bookkeeping is essentially record-keeping which is part of the overall
accounting process. A private accountant is hired by a specific organization to
operate its accounting system and to interpret accounting information. A
public accountant performs these functions for various individuals, or firms, on
a professional-fee basis.{{U}} (9) {{/U}}. The
accounting process is based on the accounting equation, assets = liabilities+
owners' equity.{{U}} (10) {{/U}}.There are five steps in the accounting
process: 1) Source documents are analyzed to determine which accounts they
affect. 2) Each transaction is recorded in a journal. 3) Each
journal entry is posted in the appropriate general ledger accounts. 4) At the
end of each accounting period, a trial balance is prepared to make sure that the
accounting equation is in balance at the end of the period. 5) Financial
Statements are prepared from the trial balance.{{U}} (11) {{/U}}. A new
accounting cycle is then begun for the next accounting period.
The balance sheet, or statement of financial position, is a summary of a
firm's assets, liabilities, and owners' equity accounts at a particular time.{{U}}
(12) {{/U}}. On the balance sheet, assets are categorized as current
(convertible to cash in a year or less), fixed (to be used or held for more than
one year), or intangible (valuable solely because of the rights or advantages
they confer).{{U}} (13) {{/U}}. For a sole proprietorship or
partnership, owner's equity is reported by the owner's name in the last section
of the balance sheet. For a corporation, the value of common stock,
preferred stock, and retained earnings is reported in the owners' equity
section. An income statement is a summary of a firm's financial
operations during a specified accounting period.{{U}} (14) {{/U}}.
Operating expenses are then deducted to compute net income from operations.
Finally, non-operating expenses and income taxes are deducted to obtain
the firm's net income after taxes. The information contained in
these two financial statements becomes more meaningful when it is compared with
corresponding information for previous years, for competitors, and for the
industry in which the firm operates. A On the income
statement, the company's gloss profit on sales is computed by subtracting the
cost of goods sold from net sales. B These ratios provide
a picture of the firm's profitability, its short-term financial position, its
activity in the area of accounts receivable and inventory, and its long-term
debt financing. C Similarly, current liabilities are those
that are to be repaid in one year or less, and long-term liabilities are debts
that will not be repaid for at least one year. D
Double-entry bookkeeping ensures that the balance shown by the equation is
maintained. E This statement must demonstrate that the
equation is in balance. F Accounting information is used
primarily by management, but it is also demanded by creditors, suppliers,
stockholders, and government agencies. G Once statements
are prepared, the books are closed. H Bookkeeping is
essentially record-keeping which is part of the overall accounting
process.
