(a)
The increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts from
January 1, 2017
to
October 1, 2017
predominantly related to
one
customer for which management has concluded a provision was required for the outstanding accounts receivable due to the deterioration of the credit risk associated with
one
customer.

(a)
Included within machinery
and equipment were assets under capital leases with costs of
$533
 and
$2,193
and associated accumulated depreciation of
$207
 and
$673
as of
October 1, 2017
and
January 1, 2017,
respectively. The related depreciation expense for the
three
months ended
October 1, 2017
and
October 2, 2016
was
$15
and
$78,
respectively. The related depreciation expense for the
nine
months ended
October 1, 2017
and
October 2, 2016
was
$148
and
$233,
respectively. An impairment charge of
$97
was allocated to machinery and equipment under capital lease for the
nine
months ended
October 1, 2017.
During the
three
months ended
October 1, 2017,
no
machinery and equipment under capital lease was purchased and transferred to machinery and equipment owned. 
 
(
b)
In accordance with ASC
360
-
10,
the Company is required to evaluate for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets
may
not
be recoverable.
  Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, the Company assesses whether the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected from the use of the asset and the residual value from the ultimate disposal of the asset exceeds the carrying value. In
2017,
the Company identified that operating results for its U.S. segment asset group did
not
meet its forecasted results, which was considered a triggering event related to its U.S. segment asset group. The Company estimated undiscounted cash flows and determined the carrying amounts was exceeded by the recoverable amount, and therefore performed a discounted cash flow analysis. The difference between the discounted cash flows and the carrying amount resulted in an impairment loss of
$1,025
which was recorded in
2017.
 The net carrying amount of the U.S. asset group is
$1,255.
The estimate of discounted cash flows is sensitive to certain key assumptions, for instance, if our revenue projections are lower by
1%,
the impairment would increase by
$110.
If there was a
1%
increase in the weighted average cost of capital, the impairment would increase by
$37.
The Company calculated the impairment loss by discounting the future cash flows which was determined to represent the fair value of the asset group and deducted this from the carrying amount of the segment asset group.
No
triggering events were noted related to the U.S. segment for the
three
months ended
October 1, 2017,
and
no
additional impairment charge has been recorded. 
 
In
2017,
the Company also identified that
operating results for its China segment asset group did
not
meet forecasted results, which was considered a triggering event related to its China segment asset group. The net carrying amount of the China asset group is 
$1,510.
  The Company estimated undiscounted cash flows and determined a recoverable amount of
$1,122
 in excess of the net carrying value, therefore
no
impairment loss has been recorded in the
third
quarter of
2017.
The key assumptions included in these cash flows are projected revenue based on management’s revised forecast and corresponding margins. The estimate of undiscounted cash flows are sensitive to these key assumptions, for instance, if our revenue projections are lower by
1%,
the recoverable amount in excess of the carrying amount would be reduced to
$641.
As such, the Company continues to monitor for impairment triggers each quarter, which
may
result in future impairments in this asset group
. There were
no
changes to any of the key assumptions used in evaluating this asset group for impairment during the
third
quarter of
2017.
  
 
 
(
c)
During
2017,
the Company removed fully depreciated assets that were
no
longer in use with a cost and accumulated depreciation value of
$870.
The China segment impaired assets from machinery and equipment with net book value of $
446.The
corporate segment also impaired assets with net book value of
$130.
A total impairment loss was recorded of
$576
in
2017.
