问答题Sven, Trudi, Uri and Viktor are four business colleagues who have been running a successful business in Scandinavia for several years. Their company operates a chain of retail outlets that sell premium teas and coffees, with high quality, healthy lunches and dinners. They now wish to introduce their business model to large cities in Russia. All four colleagues have agreed that they do not wish to expose their personal assets to risk but are prepared to make substantial personal investments to capitalise the new business. They are unsure of the best business form to adopt. Sven and Trudi favour the flexibility offered by the partnership form but acknowledge that the business has the potential to grow very rapidly which may create a need for external capital. Uri and Viktor are highly ambitious and see their business as eventually becoming a major recognised brand throughout Europe, enabling them to accumulate wealth for themselves and their children. All of them agree that it will be inevitable that new investors will be needed eventually. They wish to control the business but do not have concerns about bringing in outside participants should this become necessary. Required: Explain the alternative business forms that should be considered for the new enterprise, identifying their legal characteristics and the relevance of these to the investors. (10 marks)

The partnership agreement confines the business of the partnership to buying and selling furniture. Any transaction in excess of 500.000 roubles must be sanctioned by both of the general partners. In dealing with his regular suppliers, Boris was offered an attractive contract subject to a minimum value of 750.000 roubles. Boris entered into a contract to purchase furniture from this supplier, committing the partnership to expenditure of 750.000 roubles. Although usually not actively involved in the business, Oleg entered into a contract on behalf of the partnership with a supplier of electrical fittings for the home, as he considered this to be an excellent diversification that would increase the potential profitability of the business.
