Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis Of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION Nature of operations — Founded in 1951, Jack in the Box Inc. (the “Company”) operates and franchises Jack in the Box ® quick-service restaurants. The following table summarizes the number of restaurants as of the end of each period: July 5, July 7, Company-operated 144 137 Franchise 2,100 2,105 Total system 2,244 2,242 References to the Company throughout these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are made using the first person notations of “we,” “us” and “our.” Basis of presentation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2019 (“2019 Form 10-K”). The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in our 2019 Form 10-K with the exception of the new lease accounting standard adopted in fiscal 2020, which is described below. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for these interim periods have been included. Operating results for one interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or for the full year. Segment reporting — The Company is comprised of one operating segment. Fiscal year — Our fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks ending the Sunday closest to September 30. Fiscal years 2020 and 2019 include 52 weeks. Our first quarter includes 16-weeks and all other quarters include 12-weeks. All comparisons between 2020 and 2019 refer to the 12-weeks (“quarter”) and 40-weeks (“year-to-date”) ended July 5, 2020 and July 7, 2019, respectively, unless otherwise indicated. Use of estimates — In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingencies. In making these assumptions and estimates, management may from time to time seek advice and consider information provided by actuaries and other experts in a particular area. Actual amounts could differ materially from these estimates. Risks and uncertainties — The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has disrupted and is expected to continue to disrupt our business. While sales have accelerated in the third quarter of 2020, we continue to see a significant reduction in guest traffic at our restaurants due to changes in consumer behavior as social distancing practices, dining room closures, and other restrictions have been mandated or encouraged by federal, state, and local governments. Throughout the pandemic, substantially all of our restaurants have remained open, with dining rooms closed and locations operating in an off-premise capacity, which has historically represented close to 90% of the Company’s business, including drive-thru, third-party delivery, and carry-out. The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business and is unable to predict the continued financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business due to numerous uncertainties. We cannot predict how or when the social impacts resulting from the pandemic may change, or how any such change will impact our business. Ongoing material adverse effects on our company-owned restaurants or the financial health of our franchisees could negatively affect our operating results, including reductions in revenue and cash flow and could impact the recoverability of our accounts receivable, long-lived assets, and/or goodwill. Advertising costs — We administer a marketing fund which includes contractual contributions. In 2020 and 2019, marketing fund contributions from franchise and company-operated restaurants were approximately 5.0% of gross revenues with the exception of our March and April 2020 marketing fees. In response to the economic burden associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company reduced March marketing fees to 4.0% and postponed the collection of these fees over the course of 24 months starting in October 2020. April marketing fees ranged from 2% to 4% based on annualized sales volumes, and these fees will be collected over three months beginning October 2020. As of July 5, 2020, postponed marketing fees which remain uncollected were $16.2 million, of which $10.3 million is included within “Accounts and other receivable, net” and $5.9 million is included within “Other assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. In 2019, incremental contributions made by the Company were $2.0 million. There have been no incremental contributions made in 2020. Total contributions made by the Company, including incremental contributions, are included in “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings and for the quarter and year-to-date totaled $3.9 million and $12.8 million, respectively, in 2020 and $4.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, in 2019. Restricted cash — In accordance with the terms of our securitized financing facility, certain cash balances are required to be held in trust. Such restricted cash primarily represents cash collections and cash reserves held by the trustee to be used for payments of principal, interest and commitments fees required for the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Notes. As of July 5, 2020 and September 29, 2019, restricted cash balances were $37.4 million and $26.0 million, respectively. During the third quarter, with uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 events, and as a cautionary measure, we continued to voluntarily elect to fund cash held in trust for quarterly interest and principal payments due in November 2020. Effect of new accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2020 — We adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”) in the first quarter of 2020. The new guidance requires the recognition of lease liabilities, representing future minimum lease payments on a discounted basis, and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets on the balance sheet for most leases. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of 2020 using the alternative transition method; therefore, the comparative period has not been restated and continues to be reported under the previous lease guidance. We elected the transition package of three practical expedients, which, among other items, permitted us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. We also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to leases with a term of 12 months or less, and an accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for underlying assets subject to real estate leases. As lessor, we elected for all classes of underlying leased assets to account for lease and non-lease components, primarily property taxes and maintenance, as a single lease component. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient, and therefore continued to utilize lease terms determined under the existing lease guidance. The adoption had a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the adoption, we recognized operating lease assets and liabilities of $880.6 million and $931.0 million, respectively, at the date of adoption. The ROU assets were adjusted for certain lease-related assets and liabilities at adoption, primarily comprised of straight-line rent accruals of $29.0 million, incentives and unfavorable lease liabilities of $2.1 million, sublease loss and exit-related lease liabilities of $19.4 million, which were previously reported in “Accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities”, as well as favorable lease assets of $0.4 million, which were previously reported in “Intangible assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We also recorded a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings of $2.9 million, net of tax, as a result of the impairment of certain newly recognized ROU assets and derecognition of deferred gains and losses on sale-leaseback transactions upon transition to the new guidance. The effects of the changes made to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 29, 2019 for the adoption of the new lease guidance were as follows (in thousands) : Balance at September 29, 2019 Adjustments due to ASC 842 adoption Balance at September 30, 2019 Assets Other assets: Operating lease ROU assets $ — $ 880,564 $ 880,564 Intangible assets, net $ 425 $ (386) $ 39 Deferred income taxes $ 85,564 $ 1,006 $ 86,570 Liabilities and Stockholders’ Deficit Current liabilities: Current operating lease liabilities $ — $ 159,821 $ 159,821 Accrued liabilities $ 120,083 $ (4,702) $ 115,381 Long-term liabilities: Long-term operating lease liabilities, net of current portion $ — $ 770,818 $ 770,818 Other long-term liabilities $ 263,770 $ (41,883) $ 221,887 Stockholders’ deficit: Retained earnings $ 1,577,034 $ (2,870) $ 1,574,164 The accounting guidance for lessors remains largely unchanged from previous guidance, except for the presentation of certain lease costs that the Company passes through to lessees, including but not limited to, property taxes and maintenance. These costs are generally paid by the Company and reimbursed by the lessee. Historically, these costs have been recorded on a net basis in our condensed consolidated statements of earnings but are now presented gross upon adoption of the new guidance. As a result, we expect annual revenues and expenses reported in “Franchise rental revenues” and “Franchise occupancy expenses” to increase by approximately $37.7 million in fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 4, Leases , for further information on our leases and the impact on the Company’s accounting policies. Effect of new accounting pronouncements to be adopted in future periods — In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which will replace the incurred loss methodology that is currently required with a methodology that instead reflects a current estimate of all expected credit losses on financial assets, including receivables. The guidance requires that an entity measure and recognize expected credit losses at the time the asset is recorded, while considering a broader range of information to estimate credit losses, including macroeconomic conditions that correlate with historical loss experience, delinquency trends, and aging behavior of receivables, among others. The standard is effective for the Company beginning with our 2021 fiscal year. We do not anticipate the adoption of this standard will have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | REVENUE Nature of products and services — We derive revenue from retail sales at Jack in the Box company-operated restaurants and rental revenue, royalties, advertising, and franchise and other fees from franchise-operated restaurants. Our franchise arrangements generally provide for an initial franchise fee of $50,000 per restaurant and generally require that franchisees pay royalty and marketing fees at 5% of gross sales. The agreement also requires franchisees to pay sourcing, technology and other miscellaneous fees.

Summary of Refranchisings and Franchisee Development | SUMMARY OF REFRANCHISINGS AND FRANCHISEE DEVELOPMENT Refranchisings and franchisee development/closures — Through the third quarter in 2020 and 2019, no company-operated restaurants were sold to franchisees. In 2020 and 2019, amounts presented in “Gains on the sale of company-operated restaurants” of $2.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively, pertain to meeting certain contingent consideration provisions included in the sale of restaurants in previous years. The following table summarizes the number of restaurants developed and closed by franchisees. Quarter Year-to-date July 5, July 7, July 5, July 7, New restaurants opened by franchisees 4 5 20 16 Franchisee restaurants closed (6) (3) (18) (11) Franchise acquisitions — During the second quarter of 2020, we acquired eight franchise restaurants as a result of a legal action filed in October 2019 against a franchisee in which we obtained a judgment in January 2020 granting us the possession of the restaurants. We account for the acquisition of franchised restaurants using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The purchase price allocations were based on fair value estimates determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The goodwill recorded primarily relates to the sales growth potential of the market acquired and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total consideration on the acquisition was $0.9 million, comprised of receivables that were eliminated in acquisition accounting. The table below presents the allocation of the total purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the restaurants acquired ( in thousand s): Inventory $ 73 Property and equipment 903 Intangible assets 263 Other assets 6 Goodwill 414 Liabilities assumed (800) Total consideration $ 859 |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Operating Leases, Lessee | LEASES Nature of leases — We own restaurant sites and we also lease restaurant sites from third parties. Some of these owned or leased sites are leased and/or subleased to franchisees. Initial terms of our real estate leases are generally 20 years, exclusive of options to renew, which are generally exercisable at our sole discretion for 1 to 20 years. In some instances, our leases have provisions for contingent rentals based upon a percentage of defined revenues. Many of our restaurants also have rent escalation clauses and require the payment of property taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs. Variable lease costs include contingent rent, cost-of-living index adjustments, and payments for additional rent such as real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, which are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability. We also lease certain restaurant and office equipment with initial terms generally ranging from 3 to 8 years. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As lessor, our leases and subleases primarily consist of restaurants that have been leased to franchisees subsequent to refranchising transactions. The lease descriptions, terms, variable lease payments and renewal options are generally the same as the lessee leases described above. Revenues from leasing arrangements with our franchisees are presented in “Franchise rental revenues” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings, and the related expenses are presented in “Franchise occupancy expenses.” Significant assumptions and judgements — We evaluate the contracts entered into by the Company to determine whether such contracts contain leases. A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. At commencement, contracts containing a lease are further evaluated for classification as an operating or finance lease where the Company is a lessee, or as an operating, sales-type or direct financing lease where the Company is a lessor, based on their terms. The lease term and incremental borrowing rate for each lease requires judgement by management and can impact the classification of our leases as well as the value of our lease assets and liabilities. When determining the lease term, we consider option periods available, and include option periods in the measurement of the lease ROU asset and lease liability where the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. As our leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, we have determined it is appropriate to use our estimated collateralized incremental borrowing rate, based on the yield curve for the respective lease terms, in calculating our lease liabilities. Rent Concessions as Lessee In response to the pandemic, certain landlords have agreed to temporary rent concessions. These concessions generally relate to the deferral of certain rent payments for April, May, June, and July until future periods and total approximately $15.5 million. We considered the FASB’s recent guidance regarding rent concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and have elected to apply the temporary practical expedient to account for rent concessions as though enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed in the lease agreements. Therefore, we did not remeasure our lease ROU assets and liabilities, and we have not bifurcated our operating lease liabilities into the portion that remains subject to accretion of $934.5 million, and the portion that is related to the rent deferrals of $12.7 million. Rent Concessions as Lessor We postponed collection of approximately 40% of April rents due from our franchisees totaling approximately $9.1 million, to be collected over three months beginning July 2020. Furthermore, we passed on to our franchisees approximately $5.6 million of the rent concessions secured from our landlords for April, May, June, and July. As of the end of the third quarter, $6.2 million of the postponed April rent has been repaid and the franchisees have chosen to pay according to the original lease terms on approximately half of the rent concessions that we offered.

The Company received net proceeds of $17.4 million and recognized a $0.2 million loss on the sale. The initial term on the lease is 20 years and the lease has been accounted for as an operating lease. In the first quarter of 2020, we completed the sale of one of our corporate office buildings as we move forward with our previously announced consolidation of our headquarters. We entered into a lease with the buyer to leaseback the property for up to 18 months with an option to terminate earlier without penalty, upon providing a 90-day notice. The net proceeds received on the sale was $20.6 million and the lease has been accounted for as an operating lease.

In addition, the Master Issuer entered into a revolving financing facility of Series 2019-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 (the “Variable Funding Notes”), which allows for the drawing of up to $150.0 million under the Variable Funding Notes and the issuance of letters of credit. As of July 5, 2020 and September 29, 2019, $41.1 million and $45.6 million, respectively, of letters of credit were pledged against the Variable Funding Notes. During the second quarter of 2020, to secure our liquidity position and provide financial flexibility given the uncertain market conditions, we borrowed $107.9 million under the Variable Funding Notes.

The fair value of this obligation is based on the closing market prices of the participants’ elected investments. The obligation is included in “Accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) We did not have any transfers in or out of Level 1, 2 or 3. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of our Class A-2 Notes as of July 5, 2020 and September 29, 2019 ( in thousands ): July 5, September 29, Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Class A-2 Notes $ 1,293,500 $ 1,337,755 $ 1,300,000 $ 1,344,300 The fair value of the Class A-2 Notes was estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices in markets that are not considered active markets. The Company had $107.9 million of outstanding borrowings under its Variable Funding Notes. The fair value of this loan approximates carrying value due to the variable rate nature of these borrowings. Non-financial assets and liabilities — Our non-financial instruments, which primarily consist of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and intangible assets, are reported at carrying value and are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable, non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment. If applicable, the carrying values are written down to fair value. In connection with our impairment reviews performed during 2020, no material fair value adjustments were required.

Derivative Instruments and Hedges, Assets [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS Interest rate swaps — We have used interest rate swaps to mitigate interest rate volatility with regard to variable rate borrowings under our senior credit facility. In June 2015, we entered into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements that effectively converted $500.0 million of our variable rate borrowings to a fixed rate from October 2018 through October 2022. These agreements were designated as cash flow hedges under the terms of the FASB authoritative guidance for derivatives and hedging. Since they were effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair values of the derivatives were not included in earnings but were included in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). These changes in fair value were subsequently reclassified into net earnings as a component of interest expense as the hedged interest payments were made on our variable rate debt. Effective July 2, 2019, the Company terminated all interest rate swap agreements in anticipation of the securitization transaction and related retirement of our senior credit facility in the fourth quarter of 2019. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at the termination date was $23.6 million, which was paid on July 8, 2019. As a result of the decision to extinguish the senior credit facility, forecasted cash flows associated with the variable-rate debt interest payments were no longer considered to be probable. Consequently, unrealized losses in other comprehensive income at the termination date were immediately reclassified to “Interest expense, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings. During fiscal 2019, our interest rate swaps had no hedge ineffectiveness. Financial performance — The following table summarizes the OCI activity related to our interest rate swap derivative instruments and the amounts reclassified from accumulated OCI ( in thousands ): Location in Income Quarter Year-to-date July 7, July 7, Loss recognized in OCI N/A $ (11,499) $ (23,625) Loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into net earnings Interest expense, net $ 23,715 $ 24,328 |

Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The income tax provisions reflect tax rates of 27.9% in the quarter and 29.0% year-to-date, compared with (17.9%) and 18.4%, respectively, in fiscal year 2019. The major components of the year-over-year change in tax rates were the impact of non-recurring activity in fiscal year 2019 including the termination of interest rate swap agreements, the release of valuation reserves on state tax credits and losses, and the release of a federal tax liability due to expiration of statute of limitations, and an increase in nondeductible costs resulting from a California Private Attorney General Act lawsuit settled in the current year. The final annual tax rate cannot be determined until the end of the fiscal year; therefore, the actual 2020 rate could differ from our current estimates. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted in the U.S. on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act includes several U.S. income tax provisions related to, among other things, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and technical amendments regarding the income tax depreciation of qualified improvement property placed in service after December 31, 2017. The CARES Act is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Retirement Plans | RETIREMENT PLANS Defined benefit pension plans — We sponsor two defined benefit pension plans, a frozen “Qualified Plan” covering substantially all full-time employees hired prior to January 1, 2011, and an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) which provides certain employees additional pension benefits and was closed to new participants effective January 1, 2007. Benefits under both plans are based on the employee’s years of service and compensation over defined periods of employment. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company amended its Qualified Plan to add a limited lump sum payment window whereby certain terminated participants with a vested pension benefit could elect to receive either an immediate lump sum or a monthly annuity payment of their accrued benefit. The offering period began September 16, 2019 and ended October 31, 2019. The participants that elected a lump sum benefit under the program were paid in December 2019, which triggered settlement accounting. As a result of the offering, the Company’s Qualified Plan paid $122.3 million from its plan assets to those who accepted the offer, thereby reducing the plan’s pension benefit obligation (“PBO”). The transaction had no cash impact to the Company but did result in a non-cash settlement charge of $38.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Routine lump sum payments made in the second and third quarters of fiscal 2020 resulted in non-cash settlement charges of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Postretirement healthcare plans — We also sponsor two healthcare plans, closed to new participants, that provide postretirement medical benefits to certain employees who have met minimum age and service requirements. The plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually, and they contain other cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. Net periodic benefit cost — The components of net periodic benefit cost in each period were as follows ( in thousands ): Quarter Year-to-date July 5, July 7, July 5, July 7, Defined benefit pension plans: Interest cost $ 3,581 $ 5,286 $ 12,326 $ 17,619 Expected return on plan assets (1) (3,779) (6,077) (15,141) (20,257) Pension settlements (2) 103 — 39,030 — Actuarial losses (2) 1,367 914 4,058 3,046 Amortization of unrecognized prior service costs (2) 20 27 65 89 Net periodic benefit cost $ 1,292 $ 150 $ 40,338 $ 497 Postretirement healthcare plans: Interest cost $ 186 $ 229 $ 621 $ 766 Actuarial losses (gains) (2) 4 (37) 13 (122) Net periodic benefit cost $ 190 $ 192 $ 634 $ 644 ___________________________ (1) Based on a return on asset, net of administrative expenses, assumption of 5.8% determined at the end of fiscal 2019, subsequently updated to 5.9% as of December 31, 2019, 5.2% as of March 31, 2020, and 5.4% as of June 30, 2020, upon remeasurement of the Qualified Plan’s assets and PBO as required by settlement accounting. (2) Amounts were reclassified from accumulated OCI into net earnings as a component of “Other pension and post-retirement expenses, net.” Future cash flows — Our policy is to fund our plans at or above the minimum required by law.

As of July 5, 2020, this leaves approximately $122.2 million remaining under share repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors, consisting of $22.2 million that expires in November 2020 and $100.0 million that expires in November 2021. Repurchases of common stock included in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for fiscal 2020 include $2.0 million related to repurchase transactions traded in the prior year but settled in 2020. Dividends — During 2020, the Board of Directors declared two cash dividends of $0.40 per common share which were paid on March 17, 2020 and December 20, 2019 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 3, 2020 and December 5, 2019, respectively, and totaled $18.5 million.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Contingencies and Legal Matters | CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL MATTERS Legal matters — We assess contingencies, including litigation contingencies, to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss for potential accrual in our financial statements. An estimated loss contingency is accrued in the financial statements if it is probable that liability is adverse to the Company and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. When evaluating litigation contingencies, we may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, the availability of appellate remedies, insurance coverage related to the claim or claims in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matter. In addition, damage amounts claimed in litigation against us may be unsupported, exaggerated, or unrelated to possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of our potential liability or financial exposure. We regularly review contingencies to determine the adequacy of the accruals and related disclosures. The ultimate amount of loss may differ from these estimates. As of July 5, 2020 and September 29, 2019, the Company had recorded aggregate liabilities of $14.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, within “Accrued liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, for all matters including those described below, that were probable and reasonably estimable. While we believe that additional losses beyond these accruals are reasonably possible, we cannot estimate a possible loss contingency or range of reasonably possible loss contingencies beyond these accruals. Gessele v. Jack in the Box Inc. — In August 2010, five former employees instituted litigation in federal court in Oregon alleging claims under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act and Oregon wage and hour laws. The plaintiffs alleged that the Company failed to pay non-exempt employees for certain meal breaks and improperly made payroll deductions for shoe purchases and for workers’ compensation expenses, and later added additional claims relating to timing of final pay and related wage and hour claims involving employees of a franchisee. In 2016, the court dismissed the federal claims and those relating to franchise employees. In June 2017, the court granted class certification with respect to state law claims of improper deductions and late payment of final wages. In February 2019, plaintiffs’ counsel reduced their earlier demand from $62.0 million to $42.0 million. In November 2019, the court issued a ruling on various dispositive motions, disallowing approximately $25.0 million in claimed damages. The parties participated in a voluntary mediation on March 16, 2020, but the matter did not settle. The plaintiffs recently filed a motion for reconsideration of the court’s prior denial of class certification regarding meal and rest break claims which was denied by the court. The plaintiffs have now filed a motion requesting permission to appeal this ruling. The Company has opposed the motion and will continue to vigorously defend against this lawsuit. Marquez v. Jack in the Box Inc. — In August 2017, a former employee filed a class action lawsuit in California state court and as a Private Attorney General Act (“PAGA”) representative suit alleging that the Company failed to provide all non-exempt California employees with compliant rest and meal breaks, overtime pay, accurate wage statements, and final pay upon termination of employment. On January 29, 2020, the parties participated in voluntary mediation and reached a tentative agreement to settle the case. The parties have executed a settlement agreement and submitted the settlement to the court for final approval. The settlement was approved on July 1, 2020. Ramirez v. Jack in the Box Inc. — On June 11, 2019, an unfavorable jury verdict was delivered in a wrongful termination lawsuit against the Company in Los Angeles Superior Court. Plaintiff in the case was a restaurant employee who was terminated in 2013. The jury’s verdict included $5.4 million in compensatory damages and $10.0 million in punitive damages. The Company filed post-trial motions with the trial judge for the purpose of setting aside or significantly reducing damages. These motions were granted, resulting in a reduction of damages from $15.4 million to $3.2 million. The plaintiff accepted the reduction. In October 2019, the plaintiff’s counsel filed a motion for attorney’s fees in the amount of $5.1 million. On January 9, 2020, the court issued its ruling awarding $4.1 million in attorney fees and costs. As of July 5, 2020, we have recorded an accrual for legal settlement of $7.3 million within “Accrued liabilities” and a litigation insurance recovery receivable of $7.3 million, which represents the expected payment of the settlement by the Company’s insurance carriers, within “Accounts and other receivable, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Other legal matters — In addition to the matter described above, we are subject to normal and routine litigation brought by former or current employees, customers, franchisees, vendors, landlords, shareholders or others. We intend to defend ourselves in any such matters. Some of these matters may be covered, at least in part, by insurance or other third party indemnity obligations. We record receivables from third party insurers when recovery has been determined to be probable. We believe that the ultimate determination of liability in connection with legal claims pending against us, if any, in excess of amounts already provided for such matters in the consolidated financial statements, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, our annual results of operations, liquidity or financial position; however, it is possible that our business, results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition could be materially affected in a particular future reporting period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more matters or contingencies during such period. |

The Buyer completed the acquisition of Qdoba on March 21, 2018 (the “Qdoba Sale”). We also entered into a Transition Services Agreement with the Buyer pursuant to which the Buyer received certain services (the “Services”) to enable it to operate the Qdoba business after the closing of the Qdoba Sale. The Services included information technology, finance and accounting, human resources, supply chain and other corporate support services. Under the Agreement, the Services were provided at cost for a period of up to 12 months, with two 3-month extensions available for certain services. As of September 21, 2019, we are no longer providing transition services to Qdoba. In 2019, we recorded $0.9 million in the quarter and $6.5 million year-to-date, in income related to the Services as a reduction of “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. The following table presents results of operations in periods which have been included in discontinued operations (in thousands): Quarter Year-to-date July 5, July 7, July 5, July 7, Total revenues $ — $ — $ — $ — Total cost and expense (income) (1) (527) 382 (527) 224 Earnings (losses) before income taxes 527 (382) 527 (224) Income tax expense (benefit) (2) 148 (98) 148 (2,876) Earnings (losses) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes $ 379 $ (284) $ 379 $ 2,652 ____________________________ (1) Activity primarily consists of resolutions on certain liabilities related to our discontinued operations, including self-insurance reserves and asset retirement obligations. (2) In fiscal 2019, the Company entered into a bilateral California election with Quidditch Acquisition, Inc. to retroactively treat the divestment of Qdoba Restaurant Corporation on March 21, 2018 as a sale of assets instead of a stock sale for income tax purposes. This election reduced the Company’s fiscal year 2018 California tax liability on the divestment by $2.8 million. Lease guarantees — While all operating leases held in the name of Qdoba were part of the Qdoba Sale, some of the leases remain guaranteed by the Company pursuant to one or more written guarantees (the “Guarantees”). In the event Qdoba fails to meet its payment and performance obligations under such guaranteed leases, we may be required to make rent and other payments to the landlord under the requirements of the Guarantees. Should we, as guarantor of the lease obligations, be required to make any lease payments due for the remaining term of the subject leases, the maximum amount we may be required to pay is approximately $29.3 million as of July 5, 2020. The lease terms extend for a maximum of approximately 15 more years as of July 5, 2020, and we would remain a guarantor of the leases in the event the leases are extended for any established renewal periods. In the event that we are obligated to make payments under the Guarantees, we believe the exposure is limited due to contractual protections and recourse available in the lease agreements, as well as the Qdoba Purchase Agreement, including a requirement of the landlord to mitigate damages by re-letting the properties in default, and indemnity from the Buyer. As of July 5, 2020, no amounts have been accrued relating to these guarantees as we do not believe any losses are probable. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of operations | Nature of operations — Founded in 1951, Jack in the Box Inc. (the “Company”) operates and franchises Jack in the Box ® |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2019 (“2019 Form 10-K”). The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in our 2019 Form 10-K with the exception of the new lease accounting standard adopted in fiscal 2020, which is described below. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for these interim periods have been included. Operating results for one interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or for the full year. |
Segment reporting | Segment reporting — The Company is comprised of one operating segment. |
Fiscal year | Fiscal year — Our fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks ending the Sunday closest to September 30. Fiscal years 2020 and 2019 include 52 weeks. Our first quarter includes 16-weeks and all other quarters include 12-weeks. All comparisons between 2020 and 2019 refer to the 12-weeks (“quarter”) and 40-weeks (“year-to-date”) ended July 5, 2020 and July 7, 2019, respectively, unless otherwise indicated. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates — In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingencies. In making these assumptions and estimates, management may from time to time seek advice and consider information provided by actuaries and other experts in a particular area. Actual amounts could differ materially from these estimates. |
Risks and Uncertainties | Risks and uncertainties — The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has disrupted and is expected to continue to disrupt our business. While sales have accelerated in the third quarter of 2020, we continue to see a significant reduction in guest traffic at our restaurants due to changes in consumer behavior as social distancing practices, dining room closures, and other restrictions have been mandated or encouraged by federal, state, and local governments. Throughout the pandemic, substantially all of our restaurants have remained open, with dining rooms closed and locations operating in an off-premise capacity, which has historically represented close to 90% of the Company’s business, including drive-thru, third-party delivery, and carry-out. |
Advertising costs | Advertising costs — We administer a marketing fund which includes contractual contributions. In 2020 and 2019, marketing fund contributions from franchise and company-operated restaurants were approximately 5.0% of gross revenues with the exception of our March and April 2020 marketing fees. In response to the economic burden associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company reduced March marketing fees to 4.0% and postponed the collection of these fees over the course of 24 months starting in October 2020. April marketing fees ranged from 2% to 4% based on annualized sales volumes, and these fees will be collected over three months beginning October 2020. As of July 5, 2020, postponed marketing fees which remain uncollected were $16.2 million, of which $10.3 million is included within “Accounts and other receivable, net” and $5.9 million is included within “Other assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. In 2019, incremental contributions made by the Company were $2.0 million. There have been no incremental contributions made in 2020. Total contributions made by the Company, including incremental contributions, are included in “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings and for the quarter and year-to-date totaled $3.9 million and $12.8 million, respectively, in 2020 and $4.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, in 2019. |
Effect of new accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2020 | Effect of new accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2020 — We adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”) in the first quarter of 2020. The new guidance requires the recognition of lease liabilities, representing future minimum lease payments on a discounted basis, and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets on the balance sheet for most leases. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of 2020 using the alternative transition method; therefore, the comparative period has not been restated and continues to be reported under the previous lease guidance. We elected the transition package of three practical expedients, which, among other items, permitted us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. We also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to leases with a term of 12 months or less, and an accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for underlying assets subject to real estate leases. As lessor, we elected for all classes of underlying leased assets to account for lease and non-lease components, primarily property taxes and maintenance, as a single lease component. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient, and therefore continued to utilize lease terms determined under the existing lease guidance. The adoption had a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the adoption, we recognized operating lease assets and liabilities of $880.6 million and $931.0 million, respectively, at the date of adoption. The ROU assets were adjusted for certain lease-related assets and liabilities at adoption, primarily comprised of straight-line rent accruals of $29.0 million, incentives and unfavorable lease liabilities of $2.1 million, sublease loss and exit-related lease liabilities of $19.4 million, which were previously reported in “Accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities”, as well as favorable lease assets of $0.4 million, which were previously reported in “Intangible assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We also recorded a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings of $2.9 million, net of tax, as a result of the impairment of certain newly recognized ROU assets and derecognition of deferred gains and losses on sale-leaseback transactions upon transition to the new guidance. The effects of the changes made to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 29, 2019 for the adoption of the new lease guidance were as follows (in thousands) : Balance at September 29, 2019 Adjustments due to ASC 842 adoption Balance at September 30, 2019 Assets Other assets: Operating lease ROU assets $ — $ 880,564 $ 880,564 Intangible assets, net $ 425 $ (386) $ 39 Deferred income taxes $ 85,564 $ 1,006 $ 86,570 Liabilities and Stockholders’ Deficit Current liabilities: Current operating lease liabilities $ — $ 159,821 $ 159,821 Accrued liabilities $ 120,083 $ (4,702) $ 115,381 Long-term liabilities: Long-term operating lease liabilities, net of current portion $ — $ 770,818 $ 770,818 Other long-term liabilities $ 263,770 $ (41,883) $ 221,887 Stockholders’ deficit: Retained earnings $ 1,577,034 $ (2,870) $ 1,574,164 The accounting guidance for lessors remains largely unchanged from previous guidance, except for the presentation of certain lease costs that the Company passes through to lessees, including but not limited to, property taxes and maintenance. These costs are generally paid by the Company and reimbursed by the lessee. Historically, these costs have been recorded on a net basis in our condensed consolidated statements of earnings but are now presented gross upon adoption of the new guidance. As a result, we expect annual revenues and expenses reported in “Franchise rental revenues” and “Franchise occupancy expenses” to increase by approximately $37.7 million in fiscal 2020. Refer to Note 4, Leases , for further information on our leases and the impact on the Company’s accounting policies. Effect of new accounting pronouncements to be adopted in future periods — In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which will replace the incurred loss methodology that is currently required with a methodology that instead reflects a current estimate of all expected credit losses on financial assets, including receivables. The guidance requires that an entity measure and recognize expected credit losses at the time the asset is recorded, while considering a broader range of information to estimate credit losses, including macroeconomic conditions that correlate with historical loss experience, delinquency trends, and aging behavior of receivables, among others. The standard is effective for the Company beginning with our 2021 fiscal year. We do not anticipate the adoption of this standard will have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract |
