FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS [Abstract]
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	13. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies The Company is exposed primarily to credit, interest rate and currency exchange rate risks which arise in the normal course of business. Credit Risk Credit risk is the potential financial loss resulting from the failure of a customer or counterparty to settle its financial and contractual obligations to the Company, as and when they become due. The primary credit risk for the Company is its receivable accounts. The Company has established credit limits for customers and monitors their balances to mitigate its risk of loss. At January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. No customer represented more than 10% of total accounts receivable at January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013. The maximum exposure to credit risk is primarily represented by the carrying amount of the Company’s accounts receivable. Interest Rate Risk As of January 3, 2015 the Company currently has a fixed rate of 4.98% and 3.90% on its term debt. On January 3, 2015 the interest rate on the Company’s revolver was a variable rate based on LIBOR plus 2.25%. See Note 5, Debt for additional details concerning the Loan Agreement. As the revolver is short term in nature, the Company does not consider this as a material risk to the financial statements. Currency Exchange Rate Risk The Company’s currency exposure is concentrated in the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, New Taiwan dollar, Chinese RMB and the Hong Kong dollar. Because of the Company’s limited exposure to any single foreign market, any exchange gains or losses have not been material and are not expected to be material in the future. As a result, the Company does not attempt to mitigate its foreign currency exposure through the acquisition of any speculative or leveraged financial instruments. Fair Value Measurements Assets and liabilities that require fair value measurement are recorded at fair value using market and income valuation approaches and considering the Company’s and counterparty’s credit risk. The Company uses the market approach and the income approach to value assets and liabilities as appropriate. There were no assets or liabilities requiring fair value measurement on January 3, 2015.
