| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Income Taxes During the three months ended September 30, 2016, Income before income taxes was $43.7 million, while the Provision for income taxes was $11.5 million, and the effective tax rate was 26.3%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Income before income taxes was $147.4 million, while the Provision for income taxes was $45.1 million, and the effective tax rate was 30.6%. The effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to international taxes, which are lower than the U.S. tax rate, offset in part by losses in certain jurisdictions where a tax benefit is not expected to be recognized in 2016. During the three months ended September 25, 2015, Income before income taxes was $34.7 million, while the Provision for income taxes was $11.2 million and the effective tax rate was 32.1%. During the nine months ended September 25, 2015, Income before income taxes was $182.4 million, while the Provision for income taxes was $43.8 million, and the effective tax rate was 24.0%. The effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to international tax rates, which are lower than the U.S. tax rate, offset in part by losses in certain jurisdictions where a tax benefit was not expected to be recognized in 2015. The Provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 25, 2015 includes a tax benefit of $13.0 million associated with the resolution of certain liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. |
