Product Warranties |
Product Warranties | Note 9: Product Warranties We accrue an estimated liability for product warranties when we recognize revenue on the sale of warranted products. We estimate future warranty claims based on claims experience and any additional anticipated future costs on previously sold products. We incorporate repair costs into our liability estimates, including materials, labor and overhead amounts necessary to perform repairs and any costs associated with delivering repaired product to our customers. Approximately 95% of our warranty liability relates to our Upholstery segment as we generally warrant our products against defects for one year on fabric and leather, from one to ten years on cushions and padding, and provide a limited lifetime warranty on certain mechanisms and frames. Our warranties cover labor costs relating to our parts for one year. Our warranty period begins when the consumer receives our product. We use considerable judgment in making our estimates, and we record differences between our actual and estimated costs when the differences are known. A reconciliation of the changes in our product warranty liability for the quarter and nine months ended January 24, 2015, and January 25, 2014, is as follows:
|  | Quarter Ended |  | Nine Months Ended |
(Unaudited, amounts in thousands) |  | 1/24/15 |  | 1/25/14 |  | 1/24/15 |  | 1/25/14 |
Balance as of the beginning of the period |  | $ | 15,540 |  | $ | 15,929 |  | $ | 16,013 |  | $ | 15,525 |
Accruals during the period |  | 5,094 |  | 3,971 |  | 14,011 |  | 11,643 |
Accrual adjustments |  | — |  | (945 | ) | (953 | ) | (945 | )
Reclass to discontinued operations |  | — |  | (218 | ) | — |  | (218 | )
Settlements during the period |  | (4,198 | ) | (3,615 | ) | (12,635 | ) | (10,883 | )
Balance as of the end of the period |  | $ | 16,436 |  | $ | 15,122 |  | $ | 16,436 |  | $ | 15,122 |
As of January 24, 2015, and April 26, 2014, we included $10.1 million and $9.8 million, respectively, of our product warranty liability in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet, and included the remainder in other long-term liabilities. We recorded accruals during the periods presented primarily to reflect charges that relate to warranties issued during the respective periods. Our accrual adjustments reflect a change in the prior estimates of our product warranty liability.
