PRE-PRODUCTION COSTS RELATED TO LONG-TERM SUPPLY ARRANGEMENTS
We incur pre-production tooling costs related to certain products produced for our customers under long-term supply agreements.  We had $18.0 million and $15.5 million as of January 27, 2018 and April 29, 2017, respectively, of pre-production tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which reimbursement is contractually guaranteed by the customer or for which the customer has provided a non-cancelable right to use the tooling.  Engineering, testing and other costs incurred in the design and development of production parts are expensed as incurred, unless the costs are reimbursable, as specified in a customer contract. We had $7.6 million and $7.1 million at January 27, 2018 and April 29, 2017, respectively, of Company owned pre-production tooling, which is capitalized within property, plant and equipment.
