Apart from those mentioned in note 20, all trade and other payables (including amounts due to
related parties) are expected to be settled or recognised as income within one year or are repayable
on demand 202

223 Paragraph 11(a) of HKAS 37 states that trade payables are liabilities to pay for goods or services that have been received or supplied
and have been invoiced or formally agreed with the supplier. Paragraph 70 of HKAS 1 further indicates that trade payables are part of
the working capital used in the entity's normal operating cycle.
224
In the statement of financial position, other payables are aggregated with trade payables and presented as a single line item "trade
and other payables" only when those liabilities have a similar nature and function to trade payables - for example, when those
liabilities are part of the working capital used in the entity's normal operating cycle. Additionally, paragraph 55 of HKAS 1 indicates
that disaggregation of "trade and other payables" may be appropriate if this is relevant to an understanding of the entity's financial
position. Paragraphs 54 and 57 of HKAS 1 indicate that "trade and other payables" are sufficiently different in nature or function from
other financial liabilities (e.g. bank loans) that warrant separate presentation in the statement of financial position.
In this illustration, HK Listco issues bills of exchange to its suppliers to facilitate payment processing and to allow its suppliers sell the
bills to banks before the due dates. Although the counterparty of the bills payable may not be the original suppliers by the time HK
Listco settles the amounts, HK Listco has considered the amounts, nature and timing of the bills payable and has determined that the
bills payable have a similar nature and function to its trade payables - relevant consideration includes the fact that the payment
terms have not been substantially changed as compared to the normal credit terms granted by suppliers, and that it did not incur any
additional interest towards the bill. Accordingly, HK Listco has included the bills payable as part of "trade and other payables".
As is illustrated in note 26(c), HK Listco is involved in a supplier finance arrangement where the nature or function of the liability.
which originated from purchase of goods or services (in that case a payable to a bank) is so different from the original trade payable
that presenting the liability as part of "bank loans and overdrafts" rather than as part of "trade and other payables" is more
appropriate (see footnote 227).
In this illustration, HK Listco considers that its refund liabilities arising from sales transactions with the customers are executory in
nature as they are dependent on whether the customers return the goods or make additional purchases in future. Therefore the
refund liabilities do not meet the definition of a financial liability in HKAS 32.
If a refund liability or a liability related to a repurchase agreement meets the definition of a financial liability in HKAS 32, then it is
subject to the disclosure requirements in HKFRS 7.
