Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Employee Benefits | Employee Benefits Pension During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we terminated our defined benefit pension plan for eligible factory hourly employees in our La-Z-Boy operating unit. In connection with the plan termination, we settled all future obligations under the plan through a combination of lump-sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and the transfer of any remaining benefit obligations under the plan to a highly rated insurance company. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we received a pre-tax refund of $1.9 million from the insurance company, representing an overpayment of the expected benefit obligations that were settled during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The refund was recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of income. There were no net periodic pension costs associated with the terminated pension plan in the quarter and nine months ended January 25, 2020. For the quarter and nine months ended January 26, 2019, net periodic pension costs were as follows:
|  | Quarter Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
(Unaudited, amounts in thousands) |  | 01/26/19 |  | 01/26/19
Service cost |  | $ | 223 |  |  | $ | 869 |
Interest cost |  | 1,116 |  |  | 3,348 |
Expected return on plan assets |  | (1,136 | ) |  | (3,408 | )
Net amortization |  | 639 |  |  | 1,917 |
Net periodic pension cost |  | $ | 842 |  |  | $ | 2,726 |
The components of net periodic pension cost other than the service cost were included in other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of income. Service cost was recorded in cost of sales in our consolidated statement of income. Employee Vacation Policy Changes We enacted changes to our employee vacation policies that became effective on January 1, 2019. Our new vacation policies enhanced the amount of vacation time earned by our employees. Additionally, under these vacation policies, our salaried and office hourly employees now accrue vacation in the current calendar year for use in the current calendar year, and any vacation time earned but not used will be forfeited at the end of each calendar yea
