The document provides financial information for Woodbank for the years ended 31 March 2014 and 2013. It analyzes Woodbank's financial performance and position in 2014 compared to 2013. It notes that including the recently acquired Shaw creates inconsistencies when making comparisons, as Shaw was only included for 3 months in 2014 but is fully included in the statement of financial position. Excluding Shaw, some ratios like return on capital employed are higher for 2014 compared to 2013, but including Shaw may make the performance look worse due to the inconsistency. Over time, as Shaw is fully included, it is expected to improve Woodbank's overall performance and profitability based on Shaw's historical returns.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

- compliance by the taxpayers
- collection of revenue by the government
- enforcement of rules and regulations contained in the taxation
Act.
(ii) In certain circumstances:

penalties and therefore money will not be realized
- some penalties are not adequate to motivate taxpayers to pay as some
taxpayers would appear to benefit more from the non-compliance.
(b) (i) If it appears to the commissioner that any taxpayer is
unable for any cause to furnish an accurate return of income, the
commissioner may accept the taxpayers estimate of the amount of his
taxable income.
(Section 89(2) of the Taxation Act)

cases.
1. where a taxpayer makes default in furnishing any return or
information; or
2. where the commissioner is not satisfied with the return or
information furnished by the taxpayer
3. where the commissioner has reason to believe that a taxpayer is
about to leave Malawi without furnishing a return or a satisfactory
return.
(Section 89(1) of the Taxation Act)
(c) (i) An entity is registable as taxable for purposes of the Value Added Tax
(VAT) Act where:
(i) the entity makes taxable supplies of goods or services
(ii) the business turnover is K6,000,000 or more.
Any entity which satisfies criterion (i) above and whose business
turnover is below the K6,000,000 mark stipulated in (ii) above may

(ii) The VAT Act does allow group registration provided
- one company must control the other (as is the case here)
- the commissioner general approves registration
8. 7
- both companies remain jointly and severally liable for
VAT payable by the group.
However Income Tax Act does not allow group registration of a
company and its subsidiary.
(d) (i) Conditions to be fulfilled

- be in business of hiring motor vehicles
- be in the business of selling of motor vehicle spare parts, or
- use motor vehicle or motor vehicle spare parts

as is defined in the Taxation Act.
The allowance if paid in cash is taxable in the hands of the employee.
(ii) The employer can be allowed to shoulder the tax burden relating to
cash allowances.
In these circumstances then the employer will be required to pay extra
tax on the arrangement to have tax paid by the employer.
(iii) The house to be made available to the employee must belong to the
employer.
When this is so, the taxable value of the housing benefit is reduced by
50%.
Following this reduction, the fringe benefits tax payable by the
employer is similarly reduced.
(iv) In addition to the reduction in the taxable value of the housing fringe
benefit and fringe benefits tax payable the provision of gardener,
security guard and watchman does not constitute a taxable fringe
benefit.
(v) The tax liability arising from cash allowance paid to the employee for
school fees may be reduced if, instead of paying the allowance, in cash
direct to the employee, the money is paid direct to the institution.
9. 8
The tax burden thus shifts from the employee to the employer.
The employer becomes liable to fringe benefits tax as he has provided
a taxable fringe benefit.
Additionally there is a 50% reduction in taxable value where the fees
is paid to the institution, resulting in reduced tax liability of the
employer.
(b) Fringe benefits tax computation
Housing accommodation
Taxable value calculation
Rental value = 120,000
10% of salary x 45,000 = 45,000 since unfurnished
Therefore taxable value = K120,000
3 months benefit = 120,000 x 3 = K360,000
Motor vehicle
15% of 7,500,000 = 1,125,000 p.a.
3 months = 1,125,000 x 3
12 = 281,250
School fees
K250,000 per quarter, taxable value = K250,000
Taxable value = 50% x 250,000 = K125,000
Summary of taxable values for quarter ended 30 September

Housing Accommodation = 360,000
