Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Reportable Segment Information Reportable Segment Information
As discussed in "Note 1. Basis of Presentation", in the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation rebranded its reportable segments. These changes did not impact the Corporation's condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. Management views the Corporation as being in two reportable segments based on industries: workplace furnishings (formerly office furniture) and residential building products (formerly hearth products), with the former being the principal segment.

The aggregated workplace furnishings segment manufactures and markets a broad line of commercial and home office furniture which includes panel-based and freestanding furniture systems, seating, storage, tables, and architectural products.  The residential building products segment manufactures and markets a full array of gas, wood, electric, and pellet fueled fireplaces, inserts, stoves, facings, and accessories.

For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales between segments are not material, and operating profit is income before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated general corporate expenses.  These unallocated general corporate expenses include the net costs of the Corporation's corporate operations.  Management views interest income and expense as corporate financing costs and not as a reportable segment cost.  In addition, management applies an effective income tax rate to its consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not reported or viewed internally on a segment basis. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets applicable to the respective industry segments. Corporate assets consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, IT infrastructure, and corporate office real estate and related equipment.

No geographic information for revenues from external customers or for long-lived assets is disclosed since the Corporation's primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the United States.
Reportable segment data reconciled to the Corporation's condensed consolidated financial statements was as follows (in thousands):
