Basis Of Presentation	Jun. 28, 2014
Basis Of Presentation [Abstract]
Basis Of Presentation	2. Basis of Presentation Berry, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, operates in four primary segments: Rigid Open Top, Rigid Closed Top, Engineered Materials, and Flexible Packaging. The Company's customers are located principally throughout the United States, without significant concentration in any one region or with any one customer. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's most recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company issued financial statements by filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has evaluated subsequent events up to the time of the filing. In October 2012, the Company completed an initial public offering. The proceeds, net of transaction fees, of $438 million and cash from operations were used to repurchase $455 million of 11% Senior Subordinated Notes. In connection with the initial public offering, the Company entered into an income tax receivable agreement that provides for the payment to pre-initial public offering stockholders, option holders and holders of our stock appreciation rights, 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, foreign, state and local income tax that are actually realized (or are deemed to be realized in the case of a change of control) as a result of the utilization of net operating losses of the Company and its subsidiaries attributable to periods prior to the initial public offering. For further information regarding fiscal 2013 transactions, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's most recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Secondary Public Offerings In February 2014, we completed a secondary public offering in which certain funds affiliated with Apollo Global Management, LLC ("Apollo") sold 9.0 million shares of common stock at $22.77 per share. The selling stockholders received proceeds from the offering of $205 million. The Company received no proceeds and incurred fees of approximately $1 million related to this offering. In June 2014, we completed a secondary public offering in which certain funds affiliated with Apollo sold 10.0 million shares of common stock at $23.70 per share. The selling stockholders received proceeds from the offering of $237 million. The Company received no proceeds related to this offering. Following this offering, Apollo's ownership was approximately 13%. Other Related Party Transactions In connection with the term loan refinancing entered into in January 2014 (see Note 6), the Company paid a $1 million underwriting fee to Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of Apollo that served as a manager of the offering. In connection with the initial public offering, the Company entered into an income tax receivable agreement ("TRA") that provides for the payment to pre-initial public offering stockholders, option holders and holders of our stock appreciation rights, 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, foreign, state and local income tax that are actually realized (or are deemed to be realized in the case of a change of control) as a result of the utilization of our and our subsidiaries' net operating losses attributable to periods prior to the initial public offering. The Company made $32 million of payments related to the TRA in the first fiscal quarter of 2014, of which Apollo received $28 million.

Acquisitions [Abstract]
Acquisitions	3. Acquisitions Graphic Flexible Packaging LLC's Flexible Plastics and Films In September 2013, the Company acquired Graphic Flexible Packaging LLC's flexible plastics and films business ("Graphic") for a purchase price of $61 million, net of cash acquired. Graphic is a producer of wraps, films, pouches, and bags for the food, medical, industrial, personal care, and pet food markets. The Graphic business is operated in the Company's Flexible Packaging segment. To finance the purchase, the Company used existing liquidity. The Graphic acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The acquired assets and assumed liabilities consisted of working capital of $9 million, property and equipment of $17 million, intangible assets of $25 million, goodwill of $14 million and other long-term liabilities of $4 million. The Company expects goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. Qingdao P&B Co., Ltd In January 2014, the Company acquired the controlling interest (75%) of Qingdao P&B Co., Ltd ("P&B") for a purchase price of $35 million, net of cash acquired. P&B utilizes thermoform, injection, and automated assembly manufacturing processes to produce products for multiple markets across China as well as globally, most predominately serving the food and personal care markets. P&B is operated in the Flexible Packaging segment. To finance the purchase, the Company used existing liquidity. The P&B acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The Company has not finalized the purchase price allocation to the fair values of fixed assets, intangibles and deferred income taxes. As part of the P&B acquisition, the Non-controlling interest holder has a put option, and the Company has a call option on the remaining 25% interest in P&B that becomes effective three years from the date of purchase. Upon execution of the put or call option, the purchase price for the remaining equity interest will be determined based on the fair value at the date of execution. The minority interest of P&B is recorded in temporary equity and will be carried at fair value with adjustments in the fair value being recorded in Additional paid-in capital. The Company recorded $12 million in Non-controlling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as the initial fair value of the non-controlling shareholder interest. Rexam Healthcare Containers and Closures In June 2014, the Company acquired Rexam's Healthcare Containers and Closures business ("C&C") for a purchase price of $130 million, net of cash acquired.

To finance the purchase, the Company used existing liquidity. The C&C acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The Company has not finalized the purchase price allocation to the fair values of fixed assets, intangibles, deferred income taxes and is reviewing the working capital acquired. The Company expects goodwill to be deductable for tax purposes.

		$	3,899		$	3,875

The Company's senior secured credit facilities consist of $2.5 billion of term loans and a $650 million asset based revolving line of credit. The availability under the revolving line of credit is the lesser of $650 million or based on a defined borrowing base which is calculated based on available accounts receivable and inventory. The revolving line of credit allows up to $130 million of letters of credit to be issued instead of borrowings under the revolving line of credit. At June 28, 2014, the Company had a $39 million outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility, $37 million outstanding letters of credit and no borrowing base reserve providing unused borrowing capacity of $574 million under the revolving line of credit. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 28, 2014.

Term Loan Refinancing

In January 2014, the Company entered into an incremental assumption agreement to increase the commitments under the existing term loan credit agreement by $1,125 million. The Company borrowed loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the full amount of the commitments on such date. The incremental term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, mature in January 2021 and is subject to customary amortization. The proceeds from the incremental term loan, in addition to existing liquidity, were used to satisfy the Corporation's outstanding term loan facility that was to mature in April 2015. The Company recognized a $2 million loss on extinguishment of debt and recorded $9 million of debt discount related to this debt refinancing.

5½% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes

In May 2014, Company issued $500 million of 5½% second priority senior secured notes due May 2022. Interest on the 5½% second priority senior secured notes is due semi-annually on May 15 and November 15. Proceeds from the issuance, in addition to existing liquidity, were used to satisfy and discharge all of the outstanding 9½% second priority senior secured notes. The Company recognized a $33 million loss on extinguishment of debt and recorded $5 million of debt discount related to this refinancing.

Senior Unsecured Term Loan

In June 2014, the Company used existing liquidity to satisfy Berry Plastics Group's outstanding senior unsecured term loan. The net cash impact of the of the discharge was $18 million as BP Parallel LLC, a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company, had purchased assignments of approximately 98% of the total outstanding senior unsecured term loan in prior years.

Financial Instruments And Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Financial Instruments And Fair Value Measurements

7. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

As part of the overall risk management, the Company uses derivative instruments to reduce exposure to changes in interest rates attributed to the Company's floating-rate borrowings. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. To the extent hedging relationships are found to be effective, as determined by FASB guidance, changes in fair value of the derivatives are offset by changes in the fair value of the related hedged item are recorded to Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Management believes hedge effectiveness is evaluated properly in preparation of the financial statements.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

In November 2010, the Company entered into two separate interest rate swap transactions to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of the outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the "2010 Swaps"). The first agreement had a notional amount of $500 million and became effective in November 2010. The agreement swapped three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 0.8925% and expired in November 2013. The second agreement had a notional amount of $500 million and became effective in December 2010. The agreement swapped three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 1.0235% and expired in November 2013. In August 2011, the Company began utilizing 1-month LIBOR contracts for the underlying senior secured credit facility. The Company's change in interest rate selection caused the Company to lose hedge accounting on both of the interest rate swaps. The Company recorded subsequent changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and amortized the unrealized losses to Interest expense through November 2013.

In February 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the "2013 Swap"). The agreement swapped the greater of a three-month variable LIBOR contract or 1.00% for a fixed three-year rate of 2.355%, with an effective date in May 2016 and expiration in May 2019. In June 2013, the Company elected to settle this derivative instrument and received $16 million as a result of this settlement. The offset is included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and will be amortized to Interest expense from May 2016 through May 2019, the original term of the swap agreement.

In March 2014, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the "2014 Swap"). The agreement swaps the greater of a three-month variable LIBOR contract or 1.00% for a fixed three-year rate of 2.59%, with an effective date in February 2016 and expiration in February 2019. The Company records changes in fair value in Accumulated other comprehensive income.

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company has certain assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis when impairment indicators are present. The assets are adjusted to fair value only when the carrying values exceed the fair values. The categorization of the framework used to price the assets is considered a Level 3, due to the subjective nature of the unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value. These assets include primarily our definite lived and indefinite lived intangible assets, including Goodwill and our property plant and equipment. The Company annually conducts a qualitative screen analysis for each of our reporting units to determine if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists and also performs a qualitative screen analysis to determine if any of our indefinite lived intangible assets may be impaired. If the conclusion is that it is more likely than not that an impairment may exist, the Company will perform a step one impairment evaluation of goodwill or other indefinite lived intangibles. Our annual analysis is performed as of the first date of the fourth quarter. We completed this assessment in the fourth quarter of 2013 and have not recorded any impairment charges. We utilize a methodology, which leverages a six year discounted cash flow analysis with a terminal year in combination with a comparable company market approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units.

Included in the following table are the major categories of assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 28, 2014 and September 28, 2013, along with the impairment loss recognized on the fair value measurement during the period:

Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment and Definite Lived Intangible Assets

The Company periodically realigns its manufacturing operations which results in facilities being closed and equipment transferred to other facilities or equipment being scrapped. The Company utilizes appraised values to corroborate the fair value of the facilities and has utilized a scrap value based on prior facility shut downs to estimate the fair value of the

equipment, which has approximated the actual value that was received. When impairment indicators exist, the Company will also perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis to determine the recoverability of the Company's property, plant and equipment and definite lived intangibles.

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, long-term debt and capital lease obligations. The fair value of our long-term indebtedness exceeded book value by $117 million as of June 28, 2014. The Company's long-term debt fair values were determined using Level 2 inputs as other significant observable inputs were not available.

Guarantor And Non-Guarantor Financial Information

10. Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information

Berry Plastics Corporation ("Issuer") has notes outstanding which are fully, jointly, severally, and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of Berry's domestic subsidiaries. Separate narrative information or financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been included because they are 100% owned by the parent company and the guarantor subsidiaries unconditionally guarantee such debt on a joint and several basis. A guarantee of a guarantor of the securities will terminate upon the following customary circumstances: the sale of the capital stock of such guarantor if such sale complies with the indenture, the designation of such guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary, the defeasance or discharge of the indenture, as a result of the holders of certain other indebtedness foreclosing on a pledge of the shares of a guarantor subsidiary or if such guarantor no longer guarantees certain other indebtedness of the issuer. The guarantees are also limited as necessary to prevent them from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law and guarantees guaranteeing subordinated debt are subordinated to certain other of the Company's debts. Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for the parent, issuer, guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries. Our issuer and guarantor financial information includes all of our domestic operating subsidiaries, our non-guarantor subsidiaries include our foreign subsidiaries and BP Parallel, LLC. BP Parallel, LLC is the entity that we established to buyback debt securities of Berry Plastics Group, Inc. and Berry Plastics Corporation. Berry Plastics Group, Inc. uses the equity method to account for its ownership in Berry Plastics Corporation in the Condensed Consolidating Supplemental Financial Statements. Berry Plastics Corporation uses the equity method to account for its ownership in the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries. All consolidating entries are included in the eliminations column along with the elimination of intercompany balances.

In June 2014, the Company used existing liquidity to satisfy Berry Plastics Group's outstanding senior unsecured term loan. BP Parallel LLC had purchased assignments of approximately 98% of the total outstanding senior unsecured term loan in prior years.

Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share [Abstract]

Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share

12. Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method and the if-converted method. For purposes of this calculation, stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted net income per share when their effect is dilutive. The Company's redeemable common stock is included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for calculating basic and diluted net income per share.

The following tables and discussion provide a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net income per share computations. The calculation below provides net income on both basic and diluted basis for the quarterly period ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013.
