CIPS Ethical and Responsible Sourcing Sample Questions (Q90-Q95):

NEW QUESTION # 90
The balance sheet (Statement of Financial Position) is one of the financial statements used in providing important information required in determining the supplier's financial stability. The balance sheet contains information on such items as...

A. Liquidity ratios, return on capital employed, and gearing
B. Capital employed, operating expenses, and net profit
C. Cash receipts from customers
D. Short-term liabilities (unpaid taxes and bank overdraft)

Answer: D

Explanation:
The balance sheet provides a snapshot of a company's financial position at a specific point in time, detailing assets, liabilities, and equity. Short-term liabilities, such as unpaid taxes and bank overdrafts, are obligations the company must settle within a year and are critical indicators of the company's liquidity and financial health.
Exact Extract from Study Guide:
"The balance sheet includes details of current liabilities, such as unpaid taxes and bank overdrafts, which are essential for assessing a supplier's short-term financial obligations and overall stability."

NEW QUESTION # 91
If a commodity index shows that the price of a commodity is continually rising, what does this indicate about the market?

A. that there is little demand in the marketplace
B. there is a threat of substitution
C. the marketplace is a monopoly
D. demand is exceeding supply

Answer: D

Explanation:
The correct answer is 'demand is exceeding supply'- If everyone wants to buy something, the sup-pliers will likely increase the price.
If there was little demand or there were threats of substitutions, this would likely result in a price decrease.

NEW QUESTION # 92
What might a buyer encounter if the supplier's government has introduced a protectionist measure?

A. Arbitration
B. Inward processing relief
C. Import duties
D. Carnets

Answer: C

Explanation:
Protectionist measures are designed to shield domestic industries from foreign competition. The most common form is import duties (tariffs), which raise the landed cost of goods entering the country. This creates a barrier to trade by making imports less competitive compared to local products. Arbitration is a dispute resolution method, not a trade barrier. Carnets are documents for temporary duty-free movement of goods, and inward processing relief is an exemption for goods imported for re-export. Responsible sourcing requires buyers to anticipate the cost and risk implications of protectionism when engaging in international supply.
Reference: CIPS L4M4 Study Guide (v2), LO: "Implications" - tariffs, duties, and trade barriers.

NEW QUESTION # 93
Why do tenders often have longer timescales in the public sector when compared with those of the private sector?

A. Regulation of the public sector usually dictates minimum timescales
B. There is wider stakeholder involvement in the public sector
C. All public sector purchases are mandated to use a tendering procedure
D. There is a more detailed debrief requirement in the public sector

Answer: A

Explanation:
Public sector procurement is governed by specific regulations that stipulate minimum timescales for various stages of the tendering process. These regulations are designed to ensure transparency, fairness, and adequate time for suppliers to prepare their bids. For instance, under the Procurement Act 2023, certain procedures have defined minimum periods for tender submissions to allow sufficient time for supplier participation.
Exact Extract from Study Guide:
"Public sector procurement is subject to specific regulations that dictate minimum timescales for tendering processes to ensure fairness and transparency."

NEW QUESTION # 94
Ji Yuan is a procurement manager who is looking for a new supplier to complete reactive maintenance activities throughout his property portfolio. The reactive maintenance will include an array of plumbing tasks as well as fixing electrical items. Suppliers therefore need to be extremely skilled and knowledgeable about a variety of tasks. Ji Yuan has done some initial research and doesn't believe that there are many suppliers who can complete this type of contract. What type of tender should he use?

A. open
B. negotiated
C. restricted
D. competitive dialogue

Answer: A

Explanation:
Open tenders should be used when the buyer expects there to be little interest / fewer bids. The opportunity is advertised widely allowing any supplier that wishes to submit a bid the opportunity.
The other options limit the number of suppliers and Ji Yuan doesn't want to do that, because he risks getting no interest and no supplier.
