Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Cavco Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "Cavco") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, that Cavco believes are necessary to fairly state the results for the periods presented. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classification. The Company has evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date through the date of the filing of this report with the SEC, and there were no disclosable subsequent events. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 30, 2019, filed with the SEC on May 28, 2019 ("Form 10-K").

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements ("Notes"). Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results or cash flows for the full year. The Company operates on a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday nearest to March 31^st of each year. Each fiscal quarter consists of 13 weeks, with an occasional fourth quarter extending to 14 weeks, if necessary, for the fiscal year to end on the Saturday nearest to March 31^st. The Company's current fiscal year will end on March 28, 2020.

The Company operates principally in two segments: (1) factory-built housing, which includes wholesale and retail systems-built housing operations, and (2) financial services, which includes manufactured housing consumer finance and insurance. The Company designs and builds a wide variety of affordable manufactured homes, modular homes and park model RVs in 20 factories located throughout the United States, which are sold to a network of independent distributors, through the Company's 39 Company-owned retail stores and to community owners and developers. Our financial services group is comprised of a finance subsidiary, CountryPlace Acceptance Corp. ("CountryPlace"), and an insurance subsidiary, Standard Casualty Co. ("Standard Casualty"). CountryPlace is an approved Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation seller/servicer and a Government National Mortgage Association mortgage-backed securities issuer that offers conforming mortgages, non-conforming mortgages and home-only loans to purchasers of factory-built homes. Standard Casualty provides property and casualty insurance primarily to owners of manufactured homes.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, Leases ("Topic 842"). This guidance amends previous accounting considerations and treatments for leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for both finance leases and operating leases. For finance leases, the lessee recognizes interest expense and amortization of the ROU asset and for operating leases, the lessee recognizes straight-line lease expense.

Effective March 31, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842 using the modified retrospective transition approach. This approach provides a method for recording existing leases at adoption, without restating comparative periods. The Company also elected to adopt the package of practical expedients provided in the guidance, which allowed the Company to retain the historical classification for each lease, and provided relief from reviewing existing or expired contracts to determine if they contain leases under the new guidance. In addition, an accounting policy election was made to account for non-lease and lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. The Company also made an accounting policy election to exclude ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less from the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in an addition of net operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities of $13.0 million and $13.5 million, respectively, to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019. The difference between the additional lease assets and lease liabilities reflects existing accrued rent balances that were reclassified to the operating lease ROU asset as of March 31, 2019. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated Net income and had no impact on cash flows. See Note 9 for additional information.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, which will now require a forward-looking impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The guidance also requires increased disclosures. ASU 2016-13 will be effective beginning with the first quarter of the Company's fiscal year 2021 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method. While early adoption is permitted, the Company does not plan to early adopt the guidance. The Company is currently evaluating the effect ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB and other regulatory bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective dates. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.
