Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring Activities | Note 3 – Restructuring Activities Since November 2006, Brunswick has announced and implemented a number of restructuring initiatives designed to improve the Company’s cost structure, better utilize overall capacity and improve general operating efficiencies. These initiatives reflected the Company’s response to a difficult marine market and resulted in the recognition of restructuring, exit and impairment charges in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income during 2013 and 2012. The costs incurred under these initiatives include: Restructuring Activities – These amounts mainly relate to:
• | Employee termination and other benefits
• | Costs to retain and relocate employees
• | Consulting costs
• | Consolidation of manufacturing footprint
Exit Activities – These amounts mainly relate to:
• | Employee termination and other benefits
• | Lease exit costs
• | Inventory write-downs
• | Facility shutdown costs
Asset Disposition Actions – These amounts mainly relate to sales of assets and impairments of:
• | Fixed assets
• | Tooling
• | Patents and proprietary technology
• | Dealer networks
• | Trade names
Impairments of definite-lived assets are recognized when, as a result of the restructuring activities initiated, the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not expected to be fully recoverable. The impairments recognized were equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the estimated fair value of the asset, which was determined using observable inputs, including the use of appraisals from independent third parties when available, and, when observable inputs were not available, based on the Company’s assumptions of the data that market participants would use in pricing the asset, based on the best information available in the circumstances. Specifically, the Company used discounted cash flows to determine the fair value of the asset when observable inputs were unavailable. The Company has reported restructuring and exit activities based on the specific driver of the cost and reflected the expense in the accounting period when the cost has been committed or incurred, as appropriate. The Company considers actions related to the closure of a marine electronics business to be an exit activity. All other actions taken are considered to be restructuring activities. The following table is a summary of the expense associated with the restructuring, exit and impairment activities for the three months ended March 30, 2013 and March 31, 2012. The 2013 charges consist of expenses related to actions initiated in 2013 and 2012. The 2012 charges consist of expenses related to actions initiated in 2010, 2009 and 2008.

The Company anticipates it will incur between $5 million and $7 million of additional restructuring charges in 2013 primarily related to known restructuring activities initiated during 2013 and 2012 in the Boat segment. Reductions in demand for the Company’s products, further refinement of its product portfolio or further opportunities to consolidate manufacturing facilities and reduce costs, may result in additional restructuring, exit or impairment charges in future periods. Actions Initiated in 2013 The Company announced in the first quarter of 2013 the consolidation of its yacht and motoryacht production at its Palm Coast, Florida manufacturing plant. As a result, the Company will suspend manufacturing at its Sykes Creek boat manufacturing facility in nearby Merritt Island, Florida at the end of June 2013. The Company recorded restructuring charges in 2013 related to these actions. The restructuring, exit and impairment charges recorded in the three months ended March 30, 2013, related to actions initiated in 2013, by reportable segment, are summarized below:

Actions Initiated in 2012 The Company recorded restructuring charges in 2012 relating to actions initiated in connection with the continued weakness in the fiberglass sterndrive boat market segments. As a result, the Company decided to no longer sell and market Bayliner cruisers in the U.S. and European markets and to further reduce the Company's manufacturing footprint by closing its Knoxville, Tennessee production facility and consolidate its fiberglass cruiser manufacturing into other boat production facilities. The restructuring, exit and impairment charges recorded in the three months ended March 30, 2013, related to actions initiated in 2012, by reportable segment, are summarized below.

Actions Initiated in 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 During 2011 and 2010, the Company continued its restructuring activities by consolidating manufacturing operations, reducing the Company’s global workforce and disposing of non-strategic assets including the exit of a marine electronics business in the fourth quarter of 2010. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company announced plans to reduce excess manufacturing capacity by relocating inboard and sterndrive production to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin and closing its Stillwater, Oklahoma plant. This plant transition was completed in the second quarter of 2012.
