Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies	Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies: The Partnership’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended September 25, 2016 and September 27, 2015 included in this Form 10-Q report have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, which were included in the Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2016. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Form 10-K referred to above. Reclassifications Certain prior year operating activity amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to fiscal 2016 presentation. Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs ("ASU 2015-03"). The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying value of the corresponding debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU requires retrospective adoption and is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We adopted this guidance and applied retrospective treatment. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have an impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations or unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The impact of the adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of the unamortized debt issuance cost amounts from other assets to long-term debt on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for the prior periods of $19.7 million and $20.9 million at December 31, 2015 and September 27, 2015, respectively. In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes ("ASU 2015-17"). The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current in the balance sheet. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The guidance may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets, or retrospectively to all periods presented. We adopted this guidance early and applied retrospective treatment. The impact of the adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of the current deferred tax assets to net against the deferred tax liability in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which reduced both the current deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability for the prior periods by $12.2 million and $9.3 million at December 31, 2015 and September 27, 2015, respectively. New Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). The amendments in ASU 2014-09 provide for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition that replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. It permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method, and early adoption is not permitted. The Partnership has not yet selected a transition method and is in the process of evaluating the effect this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"). The amendments in ASU 2016-02 provide that most leases will now be recorded on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and will replace most existing lease guidance under U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. This ASU requires a modified transition method for existing leases and applies to the earliest period presented in the financial statements. The Partnership is in the process of evaluating the effect this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). The amendments in ASU 2016-09 are meant to simplify the current accounting for share-based payment transactions, specifically the accounting for income taxes, award classification, cash flow presentation, and accounting for forfeitures. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Partnership is in the process of evaluating the effect this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
