Investments [Abstract] |
Investments | Note 7: Investments Our consolidated balance sheet at April 27, 2013, included $10.8 million of available-for-sale investments and $1.1 million of trading securities in other current assets and $29.2 million of available-for sale investments in other long-term assets. Available-for-sale investments of $10.2 million and trading securities of $1.0 million were included in other long-term assets in our consolidated balance sheet at April 28, 2012. At April 27, 2013, $29.9 million of these investments were to enhance returns on our cash. The remaining investments of $11.2 million at April 27, 2013, and our fiscal 2012 investments were designated to fund future obligations of our non-qualified defined benefit retirement plan and our executive deferred compensation plan. All unrealized gains or losses in the tables below relate to available-for-sale investments and were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss within our consolidated statement of changes in equity because none of them were considered other-than-temporary during fiscal 2013 or fiscal 2012. If there were a decline in fair value of an investment below its costs and the decline was considered other-than-temporary, the amount of decline below cost would be charged against earnings. The following is a summary of investments at April 27, 2013, and April 28, 2012:
