Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] |
Investments in Affiliates and Related Party Transactions | Investments in Affiliates and Related Party Transactions We owned a seven percent interest in Outcast as of April 27, 2013 and April 28, 2012. Prior to February 2011, our interest in Outcast was 37.5 percent. As a result of certain transactions during fiscal 2011, Outcast ceased being an equity method investee and, as of April 30, 2011, was a cost method investee with a carrying balance of zero. These transactions during fiscal 2011 resulted in our release under our guarantees of certain debt of Outcast and resulted in the repayment of various loans and advances we had made to Outcast and related parties of Outcast. These transactions resulted in a gain of approximately $605 during fiscal 2011, which is included in other income.
