180 Transport International Holdings Limited 2021 Annual Report NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Hong Kong dollars unless otherwise indicated) 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (o) Spare parts Spare parts are included within current assets and stated at cost, using the first-in-first-out method. Provision is made for obsolescence where appropriate. (p) Accounts receivable A receivable is recognised when the Group has an unconditional right to receive consideration. A right to receive consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. Accounts receivable are initially recognised at its transaction price and subsequently stated at amortised cost, using the effective interest method and including an allowance for credit losses (see note 1(n)(i)), except where the receivables are interest-free loans made to related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less allowance for credit losses. (q) Interest-bearing borrowings Interest-bearing borrowings are measured initially at fair value less transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is recognised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy for borrowing costs (see note 1(v)). (r) Accounts payable and accruals Accounts payable and accruals are initially recognised at fair value. Except for financial guarantee liabilities measured in accordance with note 1(n)(ii), accounts payable and accruals are subsequently stated at amortised cost, except where the payables are interest-free loans advanced from related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at invoiced amounts. (s) Bank deposits and cash Bank deposits and cash comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition. Bank deposits and cash are assessed for ECL in accordance with the policy set out in note 1(n)(i). (t) Provisions and contingent liabilities (i) Provisions and contingent liabilities Provisions are recognised for other liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Group or the Company has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and when a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation. Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. (ii) Onerous contracts An onerous contract exists when the Group has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract. Provisions for onerous contracts are measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the net cost of continuing with the contract.
