Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] |
Revenue | Performance Obligations The Corporation recognizes revenue for sales of office furniture and hearth products at a point in time following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment of the product. In certain circumstances, transfer of control to the customer does not occur until the goods are received by the customer or upon installation and/or customer acceptance, depending on the terms of the underlying contracts. Contracts typically have a duration of less than one year and normally do not include a significant financing component. Generally, payment is due within 30 days of invoicing. The Corporation's backlog orders are typically cancelable for a period of time and almost all contracts have an original duration of one year or less. As a result, the Corporation has elected the practical expedient permitted in the revenue accounting standard not to disclose the unsatisfied performance obligation as of September 28, 2019. The backlog is typically fulfilled within a quarter. Significant Judgments The amount of consideration the Corporation receives and revenue recognized varies with changes in rebate and marketing program incentives, as well as early pay discounts, offered to customers. The Corporation uses significant judgment throughout the year in estimating the reduction in net sales driven by variable consideration for rebate and marketing programs. Judgments made include expected sales levels and utilization of funds. However, this judgment factor is significantly reduced at the end of each year when sales volumes and the impact to rebate and marketing programs are known and recorded as the programs typically end near the Corporation's fiscal year end.
Inventories | The Corporation values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value with approximately 73 percent valued by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") costing method.
Leases | Accounting Policies and Practical Expedients Elected The Corporation elected to use the modified-retrospective method of adopting ASU 2016-02. It has been applied to all leases active on or after December 30, 2018, the start of the Corporation's fiscal year. The Corporation elected the following practical expedients as a result of adopting ASU 2016-02:
• | The Corporation has made an accounting election by class of underlying assets to not separate non-lease components of a contract from the lease components to which they relate for all classes of assets except for embedded leases.
• | The Corporation has elected not to restate prior period financial statements for the effects of the new standard. Required ASC 840 disclosures for periods prior to 2019 have been provided.
• | The Corporation has elected not to use hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing the likelihood that a lessee purchase option will be exercised.
• | The Corporation has elected for all asset classes to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases that at the acquisition date have a remaining lease term of twelve months or less.
The Corporation leases certain showrooms, office space, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, retail stores and equipment and determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets; expense for these leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As the rates implicit in its leases cannot be readily determined, the Corporation uses a secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Corporation uses separate discount rates for its U.S. operations and overseas operations. Certain real estate leases include one or more options to renew with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to ten years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Corporation's sole discretion. Certain real estate leases include an option to terminate the lease term earlier than the specified lease term for a fee. These options are not included as part of the lease term unless they are reasonably certain to be exercised. Many of the Corporation's real estate lease agreements include periods of rent holidays and payments that escalate over the lease term by specified amounts. While not significant, certain equipment leases have variable lease payments based on machine hours and certain real estate leases have rate changes based on the Consumer Price Index. The Corporation's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Corporation has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. On occasion, the Corporation rents or subleases certain real estate to third parties. This sublease portfolio consists mainly of operating leases for office furniture showrooms and is not significant.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Impairment Analysis The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever indicators of impairment exist.
Product Warranties | The Corporation issues certain warranty policies on its office furniture and hearth products that provide for repair or replacement of any covered product or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in design, materials, or workmanship. Allowances have been established for the anticipated future costs associated with the Corporation's warranty programs. A warranty allowance is determined by recording a specific allowance for known warranty issues and an additional allowance for unknown issues expected to be incurred based on historical experience. Actual costs incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the allowance.
Fair Value Measurements | For recognition purposes, on a recurring basis, the Corporation is required to measure at fair value its marketable securities, derivative financial instruments, variable-rate and fixed-rate debt obligations, and deferred stock-based compensation. The marketable securities are comprised of money market funds, government securities, and corporate bonds. When available, the Corporation uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements within Level 1. Where market prices are not available, the Corporation makes use of observable market-based inputs (prices or quotes from published exchanges and indexes) to calculate fair value using the market approach, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans | The Corporation measures stock-based compensation expense at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognizes expense over the employees' requisite service periods. Stock-based compensation expense is the cost of stock options and time-based restricted stock units issued under the shareholder approved stock-based compensation plans and shares issued under the shareholder approved member stock purchase plans.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards | In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The new standard requires lessees to recognize most leases, including operating leases, on-balance sheet via a right of use asset and lease liability. The new standard became effective for the Corporation in fiscal 2019 and was implemented using a modified-retrospective transition approach. The Corporation selected a technology tool to assist with the accounting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. All necessary changes required by the new standard, including those to the Corporation's accounting policies, business process, systems, controls, and disclosures, were identified and implemented as of the first quarter 2019. See "Note 6. Leases" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for financial impacts, accounting elections, and further information. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The new standard allows entities to reclassify certain stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Act"). The standard also requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The new standard became effective for the Corporation in fiscal 2019. See "Note 10. Income Taxes" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The new standard improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The new standard became effective for the Corporation in fiscal 2019. The standard requires a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption for the previously recorded ineffectiveness included in retained earnings related to existing net investment hedges as of the date of adoption. The Corporation did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as no net investment hedges existed as of the ASU adoption date. New hedging relationships entered after the adoption date have been presented in the financial statements using the guidance of the ASU. The standard did not have a material effect on consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Business Segment Information | Management views the Corporation as being in two reportable segments based on industries: office furniture and hearth products, with the former being the principal segment. The aggregated office furniture segment manufactures and markets a broad line of commercial and home office furniture which includes storage products, desks, credenzas, chairs, tables, bookcases, freestanding office partitions and panel systems, and other related products. The hearth products segment manufactures and markets a broad line of gas, electric, wood, and biomass burning fireplaces, inserts, stoves, facings, and accessories, principally for the home. For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales between segments are not material, and operating profit is income before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated general corporate expenses. These unallocated general corporate expenses include the net costs of the Corporation's corporate operations. Management views interest income and expense as corporate financing costs and not as a reportable segment cost. In addition, management applies an effective income tax rate to its consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not reported or viewed internally on a segment basis. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets applicable to the respective industry segments. Corporate assets consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, IT infrastructure, and corporate office real estate and related equipment. No geographic information for revenues from external customers or for long-lived assets is disclosed since the Corporation's primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the United States.
