ACCA学习方法-F4公司法与商法本文由高顿ACCA整理发布,转载请注明出处在F阶段的学习中,F4和F8是两个相对来说,写作占据绝大部分分数的课程,所以在学习的过程中,逻辑性的培养和语言用词的准确程度就比较重要,即使F4已经加入到了CEB (机考)的行列中,但是仍然有道主观题来考察考生。
在开始学习之前,学员们务必要对F4这门课程先有一个整体的认识,那就是将要学习到的内容框架是怎样的,网校为学员总结了以下知识点之间的关系,供学员们进行参考:首先会先学到Essential elements of the legal system这部分知识,学员们可以把这部分放在知识体系的最上面,骨架的最顶端,因为后面的知识点都是由这个知识点引申出来的;接下来就要学习三个处在并列位置的知识点,依次是The law of obligation, Employment law和The formation and constitution of business organizations。
从宏观的角度看,这三章的内容起到了承上启下的作用,但是学员们要注意,在The formation and constitution of business organizations还包括了三个较为重要的知识点,希望学员们格外关注,那就是Capital and financing of management, Management, administration and regulation of companies和Legal implications relating to companies in difficulty or in crisis;最后The law of obligation, Employment law和The formation and constitution of business organizations这三点都会指向Governance and ethical issues relating to business 这个大的知识点,当然也可以把Governance and ethical issues relating to business这个知识点看作是一个总结,把F4整个知识体系画上了一个句号。
ACCA F4《公司法与商法》知识点讲解(4)1 Human Rights ACT 19981.1 The Human Rights Act imposes a duty in "public authorities" to comply with the European Convention on Human Rights, and allows us to take action in the UK courts for violations of Convention rights.1.2 Prior to the Act conventions rights could only be enforced in the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg which could be time consuming, expensive and daunting.1.3 Now that the convention is part of UK law (HRA98) those rights can now be enforced in UK courts.2 The rights (articles)2.1 The main rights are:2.1.1 the right to life (A.2)2.1.2 prohibition of torture (A.3)2.1.3 no slavery or forced labour (A.4)2.1.4 right to liberty and security (A.5)2.1.5 right to a fair trial (A.6)2.1.6 no punishment without law (A.7) (generally therefore criminal offences should not be retrospective)2.1.7 right to respect for privacy, family life (A.8)2.1.8 freedom of thought, conscience and religion (A.9)2.1.9 freedom of expression, assembly and association (A.10/A.11)right to marry (A.12)no discrimination in rights (A.14)right to free elections.(Note that the Articles are set out in full in your Study Text).3 Impact on interpretation of statutes3.1 As a 'public authority' the courts are required to construe legislation so that – as far as possible – it is compatible with the rights contained within the convention and apply existing common law in a manner that is compatible with convention rights. S2 of the Act requires future courts to take account of previous decisions of the ECHR.If reconciliation with an Act of Parliament is not possible the existing legislation prevails although that may trigger a fast track procedure in the Act requiring Parliament to change existing laws. In such circumstances the court issues a declaration of incompatibility, it is then for the legislature to remedy the situation through new legislation. If the fast track procedure is used this gives ministers the power to alter incompatible parts of any primary legislation by way of statutory instrument.If a court cannot reconcile 'delegated' legislation with the convention it can decide that the legislation does not apply.It may no longer be appropriate for the courts to follow some precedents on the interpretation of statutes which pre date the Act. These may now be reviewed in light of the Act.4 Impact on new legislation4.1 Before the Second Reading of the Bill the Minister responsible must make a statement either that the legislation is compatible with Convention rights, or such a statement cannot be made but the government still wants to proceed. Not all of the Articles can be derogated from. Articles 2,3,4,7 and 14 are absolute rights and cannot be interfered with. In exercising the right of derogation however the member state must be both convinced of the need for derogation and that the response is proportionate to any perceived problem.5 Impact on public authorities5.1 Public authorities are Courts and tribunals and any other person whose functions are of a public nature eg Registrar of Companies and government departments such as the DTI.5.2 It is unlawful for public authorities to act in a way which is incompatible with a convention right. A person who considers he has beena victim of an unlawful act by that authority may bring proceedings within12 months of the act occurring.5.3 The court has power to do as it thinks fit.6 European Court of Human Rights (ECHR)6.1 The final source of appeal (after the House of Lords) on human rights issues is the European Court of Human Rights. There is no appeal from the European Court of Human Rights to the European Court of Justice. Decisions of the ECHR must be taken into account when deciding interpretation.NB. Note that new cases on the HRA98 are being decided all the time. The examiner plans to write an article to consider these cases. Keep checking your student accountant for developments.7 Examinability of HRA 98This is an area that the examiner has expressed to be important so be aware of developments that may be referred to in the press.Make sure that you have an appreciation of how HRA 98 may impact on other syllabus areas.

ACCA F4《公司法与商法》知识点讲解(2)1 Sources of law(a) Common law(b) Equity(c) Statute (legislation) including delegated legislation(d) European Union Law2 Common law and equity2.1 This is a system of law based upon decided cases. Legal rules (initially created by judges when hearing cases) are followed by judges in subsequent like cases.It developed after the Norman Conquest.2.2 Initially only common law rules were derived from cases. The aim of common law was certainty. However various problems within the common law system resulted in the development of another kind of case law called equity. Equity sought to address some of the problems contained in the common law system. Its aim is fairness.2.3 Amongst the common law problems were inadequate remedies, a failure to recognise trusts and a reluctance to allow new causes of action to develop.2.4 At first common law and equity operated as two distinct systems of law with their own independent court and judges. Given that equity is based on fairness however it was eventually decided that in the event of conflict between the two systems equity should prevail.2.5 The two systems have now been merged together. In practice therefore, if you seek a remedy in the courts today, the court will look first to the common law. If the common law can deal with your problem adequately there will be no recourse to equity. If the common law is unable to deal adequately with the problem the court will look to equity.2.6 Equity is therefore referred to as to a supplement to the common law.2.7 The operation of equity is entirely discretionary whereas common law applies automatically.2.8 Maxims:'He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.''Equity does not suffer a wrong to be without a remedy.'。
acca公司法与商法ACCA(注册会计师)公司法与商法是在ACCA“基础证书(F1-F3)”的基础上,进一步深化和扩展企业法律知识的一门课程。

2014年ACCA《F4公司法与商法》辅导讲义(19)本文由高顿ACCA整理发布,转载请注明出处2014年ACCA《F4公司法与商法》辅导讲义(19)1 Introduction1.1 “Insider dealing is understood broadly to cover situations where a person buys or sells securities, when he, but not the other party to the transaction, is in possession of confidential information which affects the value of those securities ….” (The Conduct of Company Directors 1977).1.2 Insider dealing usually applies to individuals who have a connection with the company whose securities are to be dealt in eg. directors, employees, professional advisors but can also apply to a wide range of other individuals.1.3 An example would be the company director who, aware that his company is about to announce far better interim results than predicted, buys shares in his company before the announcement.2 The Criminal Justice Act 19932.1 The Act came into force in 1994 and replaced the old Companies Securities (Insider Dealing) Act of 1985. The 1993 Act reflects the European Insider Dealing Directive which harmonises Insider Dealing law throughout the European Union.2.2 The Act makes insider dealing a criminal offence.3 The offence3.1 The Defendant was an InsiderAn insider is defined as:(a) a director, employee or shareholder of the issuer of the securities(b) anyone else who has access to the information through his employment, office or profession(c) anyone who obtains information (directly or indirectly) from either of the above.The …insider‟ must be aware that the information comes from an inside source and that it is inside information.3.2 The Defendant had Inside InformationInside information is information which is …price sensitive‟, that is which:(a) has not yet been made public(b) if it was made public would be likely to have a significant effect on the price of any securities(c) is specific or precise (e.g. … … a take-over bid is about to be announced for X plc …‟ is specific, whereas a mere tip …buy X plc‟ would not be)(d) relates to particular securities or a particular issuer rather than to securities or issues generally. (In other words, information which suggests it is a good idea to sell X plc securities can be inside information but not information which would persuade the market to move out of equities generally and into gilts).3.3 The Defendant either:(a) deals (buys or sells relevant securities) or(b) encourages another person to deal, or(c) discloses the information (except in the proper performance of the functions of his employment, office or profession).3.4 The Securities involved are:Shares, debt securities, warrants, options, futures, depository receipts and contracts for differences dealt either on-exchange or off-exchange through a professional intermediary.4 Defences4.1 The Defences are that:(a) there was no expectation that the dealing would result in a profit or avoidance of loss.(b) reasonable belief that the information had been widely disclosed.(c) they would have dealt anyway even if the information had not been available.(d) they did not expect the person to whom they disclosed the information to deal, or they did expect them to deal, but not to make a profit or avoid a loss.(e) a Market Maker acting in good faith.(f) legitimate price stabilisation operations.5 Penalties5.1 On summary conviction a fine of up to ?5,000 and/or 6 months' imprisonment.5.2 On indictment an unlimited fine and/or 7 years imprisonment.NB: Contracts with third parties remain valid and enforceable at civil law.6 Prosecution6.1 Prosecutions are normally carried out by(a) LSE(b) DTI(c) Serious Fraud Office (SFO)6.2 As insider dealing is a criminal offence the standard of proof (beyond all reasonable doubt) is higher than for civil offences (balance of probabilities). It is therefore difficult to obtain a successful prosecution.更多ACCA资讯请关注高顿ACCA官网:。
ACCA《F4公司法与商法》内容解析本文由高顿ACCA整理发布,转载请注明出处Session 3 Types of cost and cost behaviorMain contents:1. Classifying costs2. Cost objects, cost and cost centers3. Analysis of costs into fixed and variable elements3.1 Classifying costsCosts can be classified in a number of different ways:· Element – costs are classified as materials, labor or expenses (overheads)· Nature – costs are classified as being direct or indirect.a. Direct cost is expenditure that can be directly identified with a specific cost unit or cost center.(1)。
Direct material is all material becoming part of the product unless used in negligible amount and/or having negligible cost. (component parts, part finished work and primary packing material)(2)。
Direct wages – are wages paid for labor either as basic hours or as overtime expensed on the product line.(3)。
ACCA F4《公司法与商法》知识点讲解(3)1 Doctrine of judicial precedent1.1 Common law and equity are a body of judge-made laws contained in decisions of the courts called judgements.1.2 Judge – made law or case law is whereby judges follow the decisions of other judges. The doctrine of precedent is sometimes referred to as 'stare decisis': let the decision stand.1.3 For case law to be workable as a source of law it needs to achieve consistency. Various 'rules' have therefore developed to achieve this aim.1.4 ‘Rules’:1.4.1 Only statements of law made by judges can form precedent. In turn these statements must be divided up into ratio decidendi (the reason for the decision) and obiter dicta (other comments).Only the ratio decidendi forms the basis of precedent as it is this reasoning which is vital to his decision. Obiter dicta are statements of general law (or hypothetical situations) which are not necessary for the decision in the case and hence are not binding.1.4.2 As the ratio decidendi of a case stems from specific facts ifa precedent is to be followed in a subsequent case the facts of that case must be sufficiently similar.1.4.3 The precedent must have been set by a court capable of creating precedent and not have been overruled.1.5 Hierarchy of the courts:(a) House of Lords – binds all lower courts but not itself (exceptional cases)(b) Court of Appeal – binds all lower courts and itself(c) High CourtJudge sitting alone – binds all lower courts not divisional courtsJudges sitting together – binds all lower courts and divisional courts(d) CrownMagistrates – bind no-one at allCounty1.6 A precedent ceases to be binding if:(i) It has been overruled by statute or EU law or by a higher court.(ii) It can be distinguished on the facts i.e. if the material facts are not the same.1.7 Advantages:(i) Detail.(ii) Flexibility.(iii) Consistency.(iv) Fairness.1.8 Disadvantages:(i) Bulk.(ii) Restricts judicial discretion.(iii) reactive system.(iv) Lack of democratic accountability.1.9 Persuasive authority:These are decisions (e.g. those of commonwealth countries, inferior courts and obiter dicta) which are not binding but may influence the decisions of judges in future cases.。
CHAPTER 181 资本维持原则随着公司有限责任制度的确立,为了加强对于公司债权人的保护,英国公司法上发展了旨在维持公司股份资本,保护债权人利益的“资产维持原则”。
概括地说,英国公司法以资本维持为目的的规则主要包括两类,一类是与股份支付有关的规则,其目的在于确保公司能够真实地募集到其声称的股份资本;二是旨在为了债权人利益保护而维持公司股份资本的规则。
资本维持原则特别禁止公司的股份资本在清算之前直接或间接地被返还给股东,在被认为具有里程碑意义的特雷弗诉英制螺纹一案中,英国上议院确立了一个根本原则:除非根据法院所批准的合法的减资程序,任何股份资本所代表的财产不得被返还给其股东。
该案之后的一系列英国法判例进一步发展了这里“资本返还”的含义:除了合法的利润分配(通常是股利)及经授权的减资或经其他合法授权程序之外的,任何公司资产向股东的转移或支付均被认为构成资本返还。
在这一领域相关的英国公司法规则主要包括:股份的回赎和回购规则;减资规则;禁止公司违法分配的规则;禁止对公司取得自己股份提供财务资助的规则。
2 股份资本的减少如果公司细则进行了授权且经过法院确认,一家股份有限公司可以通过特别决议以任何方式减少其股份资本。
如果必要,公司还可以更改章程以减少其股份资本和相应的股份数。
三种公司减资的方式:(1)减轻或免除股东对已认购但只部分缴付的股份的出资责任。
(2)取消已经损失或者没有对应资产的实收股份资本。
但需要注意的是,根据判例这里的资本损失必须是永久的,否则就会被看做是对债权人利益的侵害。
(3)向股东返还任何超过公司需要的实收股份资本。
但是,如果向股东的返还属于虚假,则法院会拒绝资本的减少。
股份有限私公司的股本减少的决议,在其通过后15日内,公司董事作出公司有偿债能力声明且依法被登记的,可不需向法院申请确认。
2.1有偿债能力声明,是每个董事对于声明之日的公司状况,没有理由可以发现公司当时不能缴付(或清偿)其债务等内容的声明。

F4公司法与商法在学习F4的时候,同学们一定要注重总结。
因为公司法与商法其中也会含较大量的写作,所以需要在学习和复习中逐渐培养写作的逻辑和条理,那么总结就显得尤为重要。
网校就带领学员们一起来总结一下F4的内容。
公司法与商法的内容一共可以分为八大块的内容,分别是Essential elements of the legal system, The law of obligations, Employment law, The formation and constitution of business organizations, Capital and the financing of companies, Management, administration and regulation of companies, Legal implication of companies in difficulty or in crisis和Governance and ethical issues relating to business。
在第一大部分Essential elements of the legal system中,同学们会接触到The English legal system, Sources of English law和Human rights这三个内容。
其中,Sources of English law是每年都会着重考到的知识点,所以学员们要引起格外地注意。
一. The English legal system1. ‘Law is a formal mechanism of social control’. Business law 5th Edition, David Kelly, Ann Holmes and Ruth Hayward.2. Types of law: Common law and equity/Statute law/ Private law and public law/Criminal law and civil law.3. System of court: civil court structure and criminal court structure.Civil court structure: Migistrates’ Court/County Court/The Crown Court/The High Court/Court of Appeal/The supreme Court for the United Kingdom.Criminal court structure: Migistrates’ Court/ The Crown Court/The Divisional Court of QBD/ Court of Appeal/ The supreme Court for the United Kingdom.4. Tribunals.二. Sources of English law1. Case law and precedent: The first legal of law, consisting of decisions made in the courts, is case law, which is judge-made law based on the underlying principle of consistency. Once a legal principle is decided by an appropriate court it is a judicial precedent.2. Ratio decidendi: Statement made by judges can be classified as ratio decidendi or obiter dicta.3. Legislation: The second major source of law is legislation. This is also known as statute law and may take the form of Acts of Parliament or delegated legislation under the Acts.4. Statutory interpretation: Legislation must be interpreted correctly before judges can apply it fairly. The literal, golden and mischief rules of interpretation developed over time. Nowadays a purposive approach is taken.三. Human rights1. The Human Rights Act 1998 is a key example of the influence of internal law in the UK.2. The Human Rights Act 1988: The Human Rights Act 1998 incorporates the European Convention on Human Rights (the Convention) into UK domestic law. The impact of the legislation is pervasive in many areas of UK law.3. Convention rights: The Human Rights Act protects a number of Convention Rights.4. The impact of the Act: The Acts has had an impact on new legislation, statutory interpretation and the common law.。

[ACCA]F4公司法与商法入门F4要点解读会为大家带来合同法(Contract Law)的相关知识。
一个合同的形成,需要4个不可或缺的要素——要约(Offer)、对价(Consideration)、建立法律关系的意愿(Intention to enter into legal relations)和接受(Acceptance)。
第四期的要点解读,将为大家简单讲解第一个要素“邀约”。
一、何谓要约?要约听起来很高大上,实则于我们的日常生活中随处可见。
一个学生最期待可能就是来自某大型企业或知名学府的Offer,指的就是要约了。
要约即“当事人向对方发出的希望与对方订立合同的请求、要求”,像是一种邀请。
大多数情况下,如果对方无条件地接受邀约的内容,合同就成立了。
二、不是所有的“邀请”都是“要约”实际生活中,有很多看起来像要约的邀请,需要我们认清。
1、Supply of information只有接受要约的内容,合同才能成立。
但有一些表达,仅仅是对“合同中可能存在的条款”的描述、预测。
这一类表达仅仅是为合同成立的过程提供额外信息,并无法律上的拘束力。
听起来很抽象吧?以下这个例子会帮助大家弄明白该概念。
【Example】买家A问建材商B:“你可否卖我一些木料呢?请告诉我最低价”。
B回答:“300元/㎡”。
收到此回复后,A以此为offer,表示接受,并直接向B表示要以此价格购买B的木料,。
很长时间以后未得到进一步答复的A将B告上法庭。
【Explanation】这里的“300元/㎡”就是”Supply of information”。
这只是一个可能发生的价格,可能需要达到某些条件才能实现,如一次性大批量购买、签订长期购买的合同等等,而非B真正的邀约,自然不会形成合同,也不会有法律拘束力。
2、A statement of intention仅仅是对成立合同表达意愿,而并未提出offer的实际内容,并不是有效的offer。
