Item C BMR plc

BMR plc knocks down unwanted buildings and prepares the land for construction when a site is being redeveloped for a new use. The company recently started to salvage, recycle and sell building materials that can be used in other construction projects.
Many of its demolition jobs take several months to complete and BMR plc can wait for over a year before it is paid. BMR plc receives the money from its sale of salvaged building material within 2 months.
Demolition businesses often deal with dangerous and heavy materials that need to be disposed of well away from the building site. The demolition industry has received a lot of criticism in recent years for damaging the environment. Some demolition businesses have even tried to reduce costs by operating in ways that put site workers and the public at risk. BMR plc wants to be known as an ethical business and has set itself the objective of operating in an environmentally friendly way.

Extract from BMR plc’s statement of financial position (balance sheet):

All figures are in millions of pounds (£m).
Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities.
The current ratio at the end of 2015 was 1.25.

Unit 2 - May 2017

In december of 2004, the company you own entered into a 20-year contract with a grain supplier for daily deliveries of grain to its hot dog bun manufacturing facility. the contract called for "10,000 pounds of grain" to be delivered to the facility at the price of $100,000 per day. until february 2017, the supplier provided processed grain which could easily be used in your manufacturing process. however, no longer wanting to absorb the cost of having the grain processed, the supplier began delivering whole grain. the supplier is arguing that the contract does not specify the type of grain that would be supplied and that it has not breached the contract. your company is arguing that the supplier has an onsite processing plant and processed grain was implicit to the terms of the contract. over the remaining term of the contract, reshipping and having the grain processed would cost your company approximately $10,000,000, opposed to a cost of around $1,000,000 to the supplier. after speaking with in-house counsel, it was estimated that litigation would cost the company several million dollars and last for years. weighing the costs of litigation, along with possible ambiguity in the contract, what are three options you could take to resolve the dispute? which would be the best option for your business and why?
