Concentration Risk Disclosure [Text Block] | Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, foreign exchange forward contracts, and interest rate swap agreements. The carrying value of assets such as cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable is expected to approximate fair value due to the assets short duration. Foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swap agreements are recorded on the Company's balance sheets at fair value. The Company maintains the majority of its cash and cash equivalents with recognized financial institutions that follow the Company's investment policy, and has not experienced any significant losses on these investments to date. One of the Company's most significant credit risks is the ultimate realization of accounts receivable. This risk is mitigated by ongoing credit evaluations of, and frequent contact with, the Company's customers, especially its most significant customers, thus enabling it to monitor changes in business operations and respond accordingly. The Company generally does not require collateral for sales on credit. The Company considers these concentrations of credit risks when estimating its allowance for doubtful accounts. One customer represented more than 10% of the Company's net sales in each of 2013 and 2012 and a different customer represented more than 10% of the Company's net sales in 2011. Two customers each represented 10% or more of the Company's gross accounts receivable as of September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012.
