Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements | 1.Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coca‑Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal, recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented:
| • | The financial position as of April 2, 2017 and January 1, 2017.
| • | The results of operations for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2017 (“first quarter” of fiscal 2017 or “Q1 2017”) and the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2016 (“first quarter” of fiscal 2016).
| • | Comprehensive income for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
| • | Changes in equity for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
| • | The cash flows for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. These policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial position in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended January 1, 2017 under the caption “Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” set forth in Part II, Item 7, a discussion of the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company did not make changes in any significant accounting policies during the first quarter of 2017. Any changes in critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company during the quarter in which a change is contemplated and prior to making such change. Recently Adopted Pronouncements In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09 “Improvements to Employees Share Based Payment Accounting,” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee-share based transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 “Simplifying The Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance requires an entity to measure most inventory “at lower of cost and net realizable value” thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Pronouncements In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. The new guidance is effective for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 “Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements will depend on the facts and circumstances of any specific future transactions. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases.” The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases (other than leases meeting the definition of a short-term lease). The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods beginning the following year. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the impacts of the standard beyond accounting, including system, data and process changes required to comply with the standard. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Recognition And Measurement Of Financial Assets And Financial Liabilities.” The new guidance revises the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes in financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Over the past several years, the FASB has issued several accounting standards for revenue recognition:
| • | ASU 2014‑09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued in May 2014, which was originally going to be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016.
| • | ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Deferral of the Effective Date” was issued in July 2015, which deferred the effective date to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017.
| • | ASU 2016-08 “Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net)” was issued in March 2016, which amends certain aspects of the May 2014 new guidance.
| • | ASU 2016-11 “Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16, Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting” was issued in April 2016, which amends certain aspects of the May 2014 new guidance.
| • | ASU 2016-12 “Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” was issued in May 2016, which amends certain aspects of the May 2014 new guidance.
| • | ASU 2016-20 “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606: Revenue From Contracts With Customers” was issued in December 2016 and clarifies the new revenue standard and corrects unintended application of the guidance.
The Company does not plan to early adopt this guidance. The Company has started its evaluation process to assess the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and to determine whether to adopt a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The evaluation process includes tasks such as performing an initial scoping analysis to identify key revenue streams, reviewing current revenue-based contracts and evaluating revenue recognition requirements in order to prepare a high-level road map and implementation work plan. Based on the Company’s preliminary review, it does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on net sales. As the Company completes its overall assessment, the Company is also identifying and preparing to implement changes to its accounting policies and practices, business processes, systems and controls to support the new revenue recognition and disclosure requirements.
