Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes [Text Block]	Note 3. Income Taxes The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and state jurisdictions as well as various foreign jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits, defined as the aggregate tax effect of differences between tax return positions and the benefits recognized in the Company's financial statements, of $58.7 million ($41.5 million, net of federal benefit). If recognized, these tax benefits would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate. Included in this amount is $9.4 million of interest and penalties, which the Company records in income tax expense. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, unrecognized tax benefits increased by $3.3 million. During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that state tax audit resolutions and the expiration of statutes of limitations could result in a reduction of unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $10.5 million. In March 2013, the Company issued Warrants (as defined in Note 6) in connection with various agreements and arrangements with Walgreen Co. (“Walgreens”) and Alliance Boots GmbH (“Alliance Boots”). As of the date of issuance, the Warrants were valued at $242.4 million, which approximates the amount that will be deductible for income tax purposes. The fair value of the Warrants as of March 31, 2014 was $700.0 million. The excess of the fair value as of March 31, 2014 over the initial value of $242.4 million is not tax deductible. As a result, the Company's effective income tax rate for the six months ended March 31, 2014, which includes the impact of the Warrants, is higher than its historical rate.
