Technical Resources

This webpage contains pronouncements, guides and articles that are relevant
to HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

Effective Date

Financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

 

Affected standards

HKAS 18 Revenue, HKAS 11 Construction Contracts, HK(IFRIC)-Int 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes, HK(IFRIC)-Int 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, HK(IFRIC)-Int 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and HK(SIC)-Int 31 Revenue—Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services.

 

Why do we need a new standard

Information about revenue is used to assess a company’s financial performance and position and to compare that company with other companies. However, previous revenue requirements:

  • made it difficult for investors and analysts to understand and compare a company’s revenue as the disclosure requirements were found to be inadequate and boilerplate; and
  • were inconsistent and lacked guidance that deal with important and/or complex transactions, particularly because basis for conclusions were not provided with previous Standards.

 

HKFRS 15 introduced a comprehensive and robust framework for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of revenue that applies to a wide range of transactions and industries. The Standard sets out a single coherent approach to recognizing and measuring revenue that provides useful information to investors about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a company’s contracts with customers.

Recent development  
To understand whether the accounting standard is working as intended, the IASB started undertaking a Post-implementation Review of IFRS 15 in September 2022 and issued a Request for Information in June 2023. The Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (Institute) conducted various forms of outreach activities to solicit feedback from local stakeholders. In October 2023, the Institute submitted its comment letter to the IASB. Details of the IASB’s development on this project can be found in the IASB’s project page.
