Employee Benefit Plans [Abstract] |
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Disclosure [Text Block] | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Pension Plans and Post-Retirement Medical Insurance During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the company settled the remaining obligations associated with its primary domestic defined benefit pension plans. The company contributed a total of $48.6 million in cash to these plans during the second quarter in order to cover the remaining unfunded liabilities. Plan participants received vested benefits from the plan assets by electing either a lump sum distribution, roll-over contribution to other 401(k) or individual retirement plans, or an annuity contract with a qualifying third-party provider. These payments resulted in the settlement of the primary domestic defined benefit plans, thus relieving the company of any further obligation. In connection with the termination of the primary domestic defined benefit plans, settlement charges of $158.2 million, before tax, were recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The settlement expenses included the pre-tax reclassifications of actuarial gains and losses from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) of $137.7 million, cash contributions to the plan of $48.6 million, net of the outstanding pension plan liability prior to settlement. Cost of goods sold included $49.3 million of the settlement expense, while $108.9 million of the expense was included in operating expenses. Components of Net Periodic Benefit Costs
