The majority of our accounts payable balance is due to trade creditors. Our accounts payable balance as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 included $16.1 million and $21.3 million, respectively, of amounts due to banks under a commercial acceptance draft program. All accounts payable outstanding under the commercial acceptance draft program are expected to be settled within one year. During 2013, we recorded severance and other restructuring costs of $14.9 million. The majority of these costs were recorded in our Broadcast segment, which recognized $12.1 million of severance and other restructuring costs for the year ended December 31, 2013. The other restructuring costs included relocation, equipment transfer, and other costs. These costs were incurred primarily as a result of facility consolidation in New York for recently acquired locations and other acquisition integration activities. These activities were contemplated as part of the decision to acquire PPC. The Industrial IT segment also recognized $1.7 million of severance expense in the year ended December 31, 2013. Of the total severance and other restructuring costs recognized in the year ended December 31, 2013, $7.1 million, $6.5 million, and $1.3 million were included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, respectively. We do not expect to recognize any additional significant severance or other restructuring costs related to these restructuring actions, and the majority of the costs related to these actions were paid in 2013. As of December 31, 2013, our accrued liabilities balance included $1.0 million of accrued severance related to these actions, which is expected to be paid in 2014. During 2012, we implemented certain restructuring actions in response to the uncertain global economic environment. For the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized severance and other restructuring costs in our Broadcast, Enterprise Connectivity, Industrial Connectivity, and Industrial IT segments of $4.9 million, $3.2 million, $9.2 million, and $0.5 million, respectively. The actions included reducing headcount and renegotiating procurement related contracts in order to reduce our cost structure. Of the total costs recognized, approximately $5.2 million consisted of contract termination costs related to our supply chain. Of the total severance and other restructuring costs recognized, $6.5 million, $10.0 million, and $1.4 million were included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, respectively. We continue to review our business strategies and evaluate further restructuring actions. This could result in additional restructuring costs in future periods.
