Business Combinations [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Business Combinations | Business Combinations During 2014, the Company acquired 19 restaurants from its franchisees, through two separate transactions. The total cash purchase price was $15.7 million and the Company incurred acquisition costs related to the transactions of $0.1 million reflected in General and Administrative expense for the year ended December 30, 2014. The consolidated statements of income include the results of operations for the restaurants from the date of acquisition. The pro forma impact of the acquisitions is not presented as the impact was not material to reported results. The acquisition of the 19 restaurants was accounted for using the purchase method as defined in ASC 805, Business Combination. The goodwill generated by the acquisitions is not amortizable for book purposes but is amortizable and deductible for tax purposes. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on their fair values at the time of the acquisitions, as detailed below:

Business Combinations (continued) Of the $1.6 million of intangible assets, $1.4 million are related to reacquired franchise rights, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over an average life of approximately 16 years and $0.2 million are related to favorable leases, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over an average life of nine years. The unfavorable leases, which were included in deferred rent in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, will be amortized on a straight-line basis over an average period of 11 years. The fair value measurement of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement that is subject to change. |
