Revenue Recognition [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition Policy	(2) Revenue Recognition Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of consideration is probable. Contract Assets and Liabilities Within our Entertainment, Licensing and Digital segment, the Company may receive royalty payments from licensees in advance of the licensees’ subsequent sales to their customers, or in advance of the Company’s performance obligation being satisfied. In addition, the Company may receive payments from its digital gaming business in advance of the recognition of the revenues. The Company defers revenues on these advanced payments until its performance obligation is satisfied. The aggregate deferred revenues are recorded as liabilities and were $47,678, $7,940, and $50,759 as of March 31, 2019, April 1, 2018, and December 30, 2018, respectively, and the changes in deferred revenues are not material to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and April 1, 2018, respectively. The Company records contract assets in the case of minimum guarantees that are being recognized ratably over the term of the respective license periods. At March 31, 2019 and April 1, 2018, these contract assets were not material to the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Disaggregation of revenues The Company disaggregates its revenues from contracts with customers by segment: US and Canada, International, Entertainment, Licensing and Digital, and Global Operations. The Company further disaggregates revenues within its International segment by major geographic region: Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific. Finally, the Company disaggregates its revenues by brand portfolio into four brand categories: Franchise brands, Partner brands, Hasbro gaming, and Emerging brands. We believe these collectively depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. See Note 12, Segment Reporting, for further information.
