U.S.GAAP requires that accounts receivable from related parties be disclosed separately from accounts receivable from ordinary trade customers.IFRS does not require that separate disclosure.
Separate disclosure is useful because a receivable from a related party might not have the same collection pattern as a receivable from a trade customer.The related party could potentially get more extended terms,such that those receivables are collected slower.Alternatively,to make the company appear more effective in its collections,a related party might pay more quickly than necessary.
