SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	'
	1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Our Business
	Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (“Marriott Vacations Worldwide,” “we” or “us,” which includes our consolidated subsidiaries except where the context of the reference is to a single corporate entity) is the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer, seller and manager of vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club and Grand Residences by Marriott brands. We are also the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer and seller of vacation ownership and related products under The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club brand, and we have the non-exclusive right to develop, market and sell whole ownership residential products under The Ritz-Carlton Residences brand. The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. (“The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company”), a subsidiary of Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott International”), generally provides on-site management for Ritz-Carlton branded properties.
	Our business is grouped into three reportable segments: North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. As of June 20, 2014, we operated 62 properties in the United States and nine other countries and territories. We generate most of our revenues from four primary sources: selling vacation ownership products; managing our resorts; financing consumer purchases; and renting vacation ownership inventory.
	Our Spin-Off from Marriott International, Inc.
	On November 21, 2011, the spin-off of Marriott Vacations Worldwide from Marriott International (the “Spin-Off”) was completed. As a result of the Spin-Off, we became an independent public company, and our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VAC.” Following the Spin-Off, we and Marriott International have operated independently, and neither company has any ownership interest in the other.
	Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
	The interim consolidated financial statements presented herein and discussed below include 100 percent of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of Marriott Vacations Worldwide, all entities in which Marriott Vacations Worldwide has a controlling voting interest (“subsidiaries”), and those variable interest entities for which Marriott Vacations Worldwide is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).
	In order to make this report easier to read, we refer throughout to (i) our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations as our “Statements of Operations,” (iii) our Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets,” and (iv) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as our “Cash Flows.” In addition, references throughout to numbered “Footnotes” refer to the numbered Notes in these Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, unless otherwise noted.
	Unless otherwise specified, each reference to a particular quarter in these Financial Statements means the twelve weeks ended on the date shown in the following table, rather than the corresponding calendar quarter:
	Fiscal Year	Quarter-End Date
	2014 Second Quarter	June 20, 2014
	2014 First Quarter	March 28, 2014
	2013 Second Quarter	June 14, 2013
	2013 First Quarter	March 22, 2013
	In our opinion, our Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results may not be indicative of fiscal year performance because of, among other reasons, seasonal and short-term variations.
	These Financial Statements have not been audited. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Although we believe our footnote disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, you should read these Financial Statements in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to those consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2014.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, cost of vacation ownership products, inventory valuation, property and equipment valuation, loan loss reserves, Marriott Rewards customer loyalty program liability, self-insured medical plan reserves, equity-based compensation, income taxes, loss contingencies and exit and disposal activities reserves. Accordingly, actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.
	We have reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to our 2014 presentation.
	New Accounting Standards
	Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11 – “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU No. 2013-11”)
	ASU No. 2013-11, which we adopted in the first quarter of 2014, provides financial statement presentation guidance on whether an unrecognized tax benefit must be presented as either a reduction to a deferred tax asset or separately as a liability. Our adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
	Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 – “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU No. 2014-08”)
	ASU No. 2014-08, which we adopted in the first quarter of 2014, raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. Our adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
	Future Adoption of Accounting Standards
	Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 – “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU No. 2014-09”)
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-09, which specifies how and when to recognize revenue and requires informative, relevant disclosures. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for financial statements issued for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and does not permit early adoption. We will adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2017 and are currently evaluating the impact it will have on our Financial Statements.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]	'
INCOME TAXES	'
	2. INCOME TAXES
	We file U.S. consolidated federal and state tax returns, as well as separate tax filings for non-U.S. jurisdictions. We entered into a Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement with Marriott International, effective November 21, 2011 (as subsequently amended, the “Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement”), which governs the allocation of responsibility for federal, state, local and foreign income and other taxes related to taxable periods prior to and subsequent to the Spin-Off between Marriott International and Marriott Vacations Worldwide. Under this agreement, if any part of the Spin-Off fails to qualify for the tax treatment stated in the ruling Marriott International received from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) in connection with the Spin-Off, taxes imposed will be allocated between Marriott International and Marriott Vacations Worldwide as set forth in the agreement, and each will indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against the taxes so allocated. During the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014, we increased our Deferred tax liabilities by $2 million for adjustments to the Deferred tax liabilities at the time of the Spin-Off with a corresponding reduction to Additional paid-in-capital.
	Our total unrecognized tax benefit balance that, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate was less than $1 million at both June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014.
	We have joined in the Marriott International U.S. federal tax consolidated filing for periods up to the date of the Spin-Off. The IRS has examined Marriott International’s federal income tax returns, and it has settled all issues related to the timeshare business for the tax years through the Spin-Off. Although we do not anticipate that a significant impact to our unrecognized tax benefit balance will occur during the next fiscal year as a result of audits by other tax jurisdictions, the amount of our liability for unrecognized tax benefits could change as a result of these audits. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement, Marriott International is liable and shall pay the relevant tax authority for all taxes related to our taxable income prior to the Spin-Off. Our tax years subsequent to the Spin-Off are subject to examination by relevant tax authorities.

	We reflect interest income associated with vacation ownership notes receivable on our Statements of Operations in the Financing revenues caption. The following table summarizes interest income associated with vacation ownership notes receivable:
	($ in millions)		Twelve Weeks Ended				Twenty-Four Weeks Ended

	Total interest income associated with vacation ownership notes receivable		$	28	$	31	$	57	$	63
	We record an estimate of expected uncollectibility on all notes receivable from vacation ownership purchasers as a reduction of revenues from the sale of vacation ownership products at the time we recognize profit on a vacation ownership product sale. We fully reserve for all defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable in addition to recording a reserve on the estimated uncollectible portion of the remaining vacation ownership notes receivable. For those vacation ownership notes receivable that are not in default, we assess collectibility based on pools of vacation ownership notes receivable because we hold large numbers of homogeneous vacation ownership notes receivable. We use the same criteria to estimate uncollectibility for non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable because they perform similarly. We estimate uncollectibility for each pool based on historical activity for similar vacation ownership notes receivable.
	The following table summarizes the activity related to our vacation ownership notes receivable reserve for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014:
	($ in millions)		Non-Securitized		Securitized		Total
			Vacation Ownership		Vacation Ownership

	(1)	Refers to our voluntary repurchase of previously securitized non-defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable to retire outstanding vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations.
	(2)	Decrease in securitized vacation ownership notes receivable reserve and increase in non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable reserve was attributable to the transfer of the reserve when we voluntarily repurchased the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable.
	Although we consider loans to owners to be past due if we do not receive payment within 30 days of the due date, we suspend accrual of interest only on those loans that are over 90 days past due. We consider loans over 150 days past due to be in default. We apply payments we receive for vacation ownership notes receivable on non-accrual status first to interest, then to principal and any remainder to fees. We resume accruing interest when vacation ownership notes receivable are less than 90 days past due. We do not accept payments for vacation ownership notes receivable during the foreclosure process unless the amount is sufficient to pay all past due principal, interest, fees and penalties owed and fully reinstate the note. We write off uncollectible vacation ownership notes receivable against the reserve once we receive title to the vacation ownership products through the foreclosure or deed-in-lieu process or, in Europe or Asia Pacific, when revocation is complete. For both non-securitized and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, we estimated average remaining default rates of 6.96 percent and 7.13 percent as of June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014, respectively. A 0.5 percentage point increase in the estimated default rate would have resulted in an increase in our allowance for loan losses of $5 million as of both June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014.
	The following table shows our recorded investment in non-accrual vacation ownership notes receivable, which are vacation ownership notes receivable that are 90 days or more past due:

	The following table shows the carrying values and the estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments, determined in accordance with the guidance for disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The table excludes Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Accounts and contracts receivable, Accounts payable and Accrued liabilities, which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

	(1)	Fair value of financial instruments has been determined using Level 3 inputs.
	Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable
	We estimate the fair value of our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable using a discounted cash flow model. We believe this is comparable to the model that an independent third party would use in the current market. Our model uses default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates and loan terms for our securitized vacation ownership notes receivable portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value, that when applied in combination with pricing parameters, determine the fair value of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable.
	Due to factors that impact the general marketability of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, as well as current market conditions, we bifurcate our vacation ownership notes receivable at each balance sheet date into those eligible and not eligible for securitization using criteria applicable to current securitization transactions in the asset-backed securities (“ABS”) market. Generally, vacation ownership notes receivable are considered not eligible for securitization if any of the following attributes are present: (1) payments are greater than 30 days past due; (2) the first payment has not been received; or (3) the collateral is located in Europe or Asia. In some cases eligibility may also be determined based on the credit score of the borrower, the remaining term of the loans and other similar factors that may reflect investor demand in a securitization transaction or the cost to effectively securitize the vacation ownership notes receivable. The following table shows the bifurcation of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable into those eligible and not eligible for securitization based upon the aforementioned eligibility criteria:
			At June 20, 2014				At January 3, 2014
	($ in millions)		Carrying		Fair		Carrying		Fair
			Amount		Value		Amount		Value
	Vacation ownership notes receivable — eligible for securitization		$	159	$	197	$	73	$	89
	Vacation ownership notes receivable — not eligible for securitization			140		140		178		178
	Total vacation ownership notes receivable — non-securitized		$	299	$	337	$	251	$	267
	We estimate the fair value of the portion of our non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable that we believe will ultimately be securitized in the same manner as securitized vacation ownership notes receivable. We value the remaining non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable at their carrying value, rather than using our pricing model. We believe that the carrying value of these particular vacation ownership notes receivable approximates fair value because the stated interest rates of these loans are consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these vacation ownership notes receivable appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates and loan terms.
	Non-Recourse Debt Associated with Securitized Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable
	We generate cash flow estimates by modeling all bond tranches for our active vacation ownership notes receivable securitization transactions, with consideration for the collateral specific to each tranche. The key drivers in our analysis include default rates, prepayment rates, bond interest rates and other structural factors, which we use to estimate the projected cash flows. In order to estimate market credit spreads by rating, we obtain indicative credit spreads from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the market for vacation ownership securities and determine an average credit spread by rating level of the different tranches. We then apply those estimated market spreads to swap rates in order to estimate an underlying discount rate for calculating the fair value of the active bonds payable.
	Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock of Consolidated Subsidiary
	We estimate the fair value of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock of our consolidated subsidiary using a discounted cash flow model. We believe this is comparable to the model that an independent third party would use in the current market. Our model includes an assessment of our subsidiary’s credit risk and the instrument’s contractual dividend rate.
	Liability for Marriott Rewards Customer Loyalty Program
	We determine the carrying value of the future redemption obligation of our liability for the Marriott Rewards customer loyalty program based on statistical formulas that project the timing of future redemption of Marriott Rewards Points based on historical levels, including estimates of the number of Marriott Rewards Points that will eventually be redeemed and the “breakage” for points that will never be redeemed. We estimate the fair value of the future redemption obligation by adjusting the contractual discount rate to an estimate of that of a market participant with similar nonperformance risk.
	Other Liabilities
	We estimate the fair value of our other liabilities that are financial instruments using expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates. These liabilities represent guarantee costs and reserves and other structured payments. The carrying values of our financial instruments within Other liabilities approximate their fair values.

	During the second quarter of 2014, in furtherance of our initiative to dispose of excess undeveloped and partially developed land, we completed the sale of a parcel of undeveloped land on Singer Island, Florida for gross cash proceeds of $11 million. We accounted for the sale under the full accrual method in accordance with the guidance on accounting for sales of real estate and recorded a gain of less than $1 million, which is included in the Gains and other income line on the Statement of Operations for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014.
	During the second quarter of 2014, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to dispose of undeveloped and partially developed land, an operating golf course and related assets, in Kauai, Hawaii for $60 million in gross cash proceeds. The transaction contemplated by the purchase and sale agreement is subject to a number of closing conditions, and we cannot be certain that the transaction will be completed in a timely manner, or at all. If the transaction is completed as contemplated in the purchase and sale agreement, we will account for the sale under the full accrual method in accordance with the guidance on accounting for sales of real estate.
	During the first quarter of 2014, we disposed of a golf course and adjacent undeveloped land in Orlando, Florida for $24 million in gross cash proceeds. As a condition of the sale, we will continue to operate the golf course until the end of the first quarter of 2015 at our own risk. We will utilize the performance of services method to record a gain from the sale, which we estimate will be between $2 million to $3 million over the period during which we will operate the golf course, of which approximately $2 million is included in the Gains and other income line on the Statement of Operations for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014.

EARNINGS PER SHARE	'
	6. EARNINGS PER SHARE
	Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Treasury stock is excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the reporting period. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based compensation awards is reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method using average market prices during the period.
	The table below illustrates the reconciliation of the earnings and number of shares used in our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

	(1)	The computations of diluted earnings per share exclude approximately 228,000 shares of common stock, the maximum number of shares issuable as of June 20, 2014 upon the vesting of certain performance-based awards, because the performance conditions required for the shares subject to such awards to vest were not achieved by the end of the reporting period.
	(2)	The computations of diluted earnings per share exclude approximately 229,000 shares of common stock, the maximum number of shares issuable as of June 14, 2013 upon the vesting of certain performance-based awards, because the performance conditions required for the shares subject to such awards to vest were not achieved by the end of the reporting period.
	For the twelve and twenty-four week periods ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013, we have not excluded any shares underlying stock options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) that may be settled in shares of common stock from our calculation of diluted earnings per share as no exercise prices were greater than the average market prices for the applicable period.

	Guarantees
	We have historically issued guarantees to certain lenders in connection with the provision of third-party financing for our sale of vacation ownership products for the North America and Asia Pacific segments. The terms of these guarantees generally require us to fund if the purchaser fails to pay under the term of its note payable. Prior to the Spin-Off, Marriott International guaranteed our performance under these arrangements, and following the Spin-Off continues to hold a standby letter of credit related to the Asia Pacific segment guarantee. If Marriott International is required to fund any draws by lenders under this letter of credit it would seek recourse from us. Marriott International no longer guarantees our performance with respect to third-party financing for sales of products in the North America segment. We are entitled to recover any funding to third-party lenders related to these guarantees through reacquisition and resale of the financed vacation ownership product. Our commitments under these guarantees expire as notes mature or are repaid. The terms of the underlying notes extend to 2022.
	The following table shows the maximum potential amount of future fundings for financing guarantees where we are the primary obligor and the carrying amount of the liability for expected future fundings.

	We included our liability of less than $1 million for expected future fundings for guarantees on our Balance Sheet at June 20, 2014 in the Other caption within Liabilities.
	Commitments and Letters of Credit
	In addition to the guarantees we describe in the preceding paragraphs, as of June 20, 2014, we had the following commitments outstanding:
		•		We have various contracts for the use of information technology hardware and software that we use in the normal course of business. Our commitments under these contracts were $41 million, of which we expect $5 million, $13 million, $8 million, $6 million, $3 million and $6 million will be paid in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and thereafter, respectively.
		•		Commitments to subsidize vacation ownership associations were $4 million, which we expect will be paid in 2014.
	Surety bonds issued as of June 20, 2014 totaled $76 million, the majority of which were requested by federal, state or local governments related to our operations.
	As of June 20, 2014, we had $3 million of letters of credit outstanding under our $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Corporate Credit Facility”).
	Loss Contingencies
	In 2012, we agreed to settle two lawsuits in which certain of our subsidiaries were defendants. The plaintiffs in the lawsuits, residential unit owners at The Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences, San Francisco (the “RCC San Francisco”), a project within our North America segment, questioned the adequacy of disclosures made prior to 2008, when our business was part of Marriott International, regarding bonds issued for that project under California’s Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the “Mello-Roos Act”) and their payment obligations with respect to such bonds. In 2013, we agreed to settle a third lawsuit in which another residential unit owner at the RCC San Francisco had asserted similar claims. As a result of these settlements, in 2013 we reversed $1 million of the $41 million previously recognized expense recorded in 2012 in connection with these matters.
	On December 21, 2012, Jon Benner, an owner of fractional interests in the RCC San Francisco, filed suit in Superior Court for the State of California, County of San Francisco against us and certain of our subsidiaries on behalf of a putative class consisting of all owners of fractional interests at the RCC San Francisco who allegedly did not receive proper notice of their payment obligations under the Mello-Roos Act. The plaintiff alleges that the disclosures made about bonds issued for the project under this Act and the payment obligations of fractional interest purchasers with respect to such bonds were inadequate, and this and other alleged statutory violations constitute intentional and negligent misrepresentation, fraud and fraudulent concealment. The relief sought includes damages in an unspecified amount, rescission of the purchases, restitution and disgorgement of profits. Thomas Wanless and Matthew Jenner, owners of another fractional interest at the RCC San Francisco, filed a complaint in San Francisco Superior Court on October 15, 2013, that contains similar allegations and seeks similar relief. The Wanless complaint has been consolidated with the Benner action and with a similar action previously filed by fractional interest owner Elisabeth Gani. These three lawsuits are distinct from the other lawsuits described above relating to the RCC San Francisco because the disclosure process for the sale of fractional interests differs from that applicable to the sale of whole-ownership units. We dispute the material allegations in these complaints and intend to defend against these actions vigorously. Given the early stages of these actions and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.
	On December 11, 2012, Steven B. Hoyt and Bradley A. Hoyt, purchasers of fractional interests in two of The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club projects, filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota against us, certain of our subsidiaries and The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company on behalf of a putative class consisting of all purchasers of fractional interests at The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club projects. The plaintiffs allege that program changes beginning in 2009 caused an actionable decrease in the value of the fractional interests purchased. The relief sought includes declaratory and injunctive relief, damages in an unspecified amount, rescission of the purchases, restitution, disgorgement of profits, interest and attorneys’ fees. In response to our motion to dismiss the original complaint, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. In response, we filed a renewed motion to dismiss. On February 7, 2014, the court issued an order granting that motion in part and denying it in part. We continue to dispute the material allegations remaining in the amended complaint and intend to continue to defend against this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.
	On January 30, 2013, Krishna and Sherrie Narayan and other owners of 12 residential units at the resort formerly known as The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Kapalua Bay (“Kapalua Bay”) were granted leave by the Court to file, and subsequently did file, an amended complaint related to a suit originally filed in Circuit Court for Maui County, Hawaii in June 2012 against us, certain of our subsidiaries, Marriott International, certain of its subsidiaries, and the joint venture in which we have an equity investment that developed and marketed vacation ownership and residential products at Kapalua Bay (the “Joint Venture”). In the original complaint, the plaintiffs alleged that defendants mismanaged funds of the residential owners association (the “Kapalua Bay Association”), created a conflict of interest by permitting their employees to serve on the Kapalua Bay Association’s board, and failed to disclose documents to which the plaintiffs were allegedly entitled. The amended complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty, violations of the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act and the Hawaii condominium statute, intentional misrepresentation and concealment, unjust enrichment and civil conspiracy. The relief sought in the amended complaint includes injunctive relief, repayment of all sums paid to us and our subsidiaries and Marriott International and its subsidiaries, compensatory and punitive damages, and treble damages under the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. We dispute the material allegations in the amended complaint and continue to defend against this action vigorously. On August 23, 2013, the Hawaii Intermediate Court of Appeals reversed the Maui Circuit Court’s denial of our motion to compel arbitration of the claims asserted by plaintiffs. The Circuit Court subsequently granted our renewed motion to compel arbitration and referred the matter to arbitration. The Hawaii Supreme Court thereafter agreed to review the decision of the Intermediate Court of Appeals and heard oral argument in the case on April 3, 2014, but as of July 15, 2014 has taken no action to affirm or reverse that decision. Given the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time. In the second quarter of 2014, we recorded a nominal charge as a result of the agreement by owners of two residential units to release their claims in this action.
	In the fourth quarter of 2013, we reached an agreement with several parties involved in Kapalua Bay, including the foreclosure purchasers of the unsold interests in the project, other entities that have equity investments in the Joint Venture, the Kapalua Bay Association, and the Kapalua Bay Vacation Owners Association (the fractional owners’ association), to mutually settle pending and threatened claims relating to the project (the “Kapalua Bay Settlement”). In connection with the Kapalua Bay Settlement, owners of 132 of the 177 developer-sold fractional interests (including owners of two fractional interests who were plaintiffs in the Charles action described below) provided full releases to us and other parties associated with the project. In addition, one residential owner provided a full release to us and other parties associated with the project. As a result, we recorded a charge of $8 million in 2013, which was partially offset by $7 million of income recorded for partial repayment of our previously fully reserved receivables due from the Joint Venture. Both were included in Impairment charges on equity investment on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 3, 2014.
	On June 19, 2013, Earl C. and Patricia A. Charles, owners of a fractional interest at Kapalua Bay, together with owners of 38 other fractional interests at Kapalua Bay, filed an amended complaint in the Circuit Court of the Second Circuit for the State of Hawaii against us, certain of our subsidiaries, Marriott International, certain of its subsidiaries, the Joint Venture, and other entities that have equity investments in the Joint Venture. The amended complaint supersedes a prior complaint that was not served on any defendant. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to disclose the financial condition of the Joint Venture and the commitment of the defendants to the Joint Venture, and that defendants’ actions constituted fraud and violated the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, the Hawaii Condominium Property Act and the Hawaii Time Sharing Plans statute. The relief sought includes compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, pre-judgment interest, declaratory relief, rescission and treble damages under the Hawaii Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. The complaint was subsequently further amended to add owners of two additional fractional interests as plaintiffs. The Circuit Court granted our motion to compel arbitration of the claims asserted by the plaintiffs, and the parties are currently engaged in arbitration. We dispute the material allegations in the amended complaint and in the statement of claim filed in the arbitration, and intend to defend against this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation and arbitration, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time. Additionally, owners of two fractional interests have since agreed to release their claims in this action in connection with the Kapalua Bay Settlement described above.
	On June 28, 2013, owners of 35 residences and lots at The Abaco Club on Winding Bay (“The Abaco Club”) filed a complaint in Orange County, Florida Circuit Court against us, one of our subsidiaries, certain subsidiaries of Marriott International and the resort’s owners’ association, alleging that the defendants failed to maintain the golf course, golf clubhouse, roads, water supply system, and other facilities and equipment in a manner commensurate with a five-star luxury resort, and certain deficiencies in the quality of services provided at the resort. Plaintiffs also allege that the defendants failed to honor an obligation to extend a right of first offer to club owners in connection with plans to sell the club property. Plaintiffs allege statutory and common law claims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and fraud and seek compensatory and punitive damages. We have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. We dispute the material allegations in this complaint and intend to defend against this action vigorously. In April 2014, this action was abated for a period of up to five months after we entered into a non-binding letter of intent to sell the golf course, spa and clubhouse and related facilities and certain developed and undeveloped lots at The Abaco Club to an entity to be comprised of certain members of The Abaco Club, including certain of the plaintiffs, and others. Although we cannot be certain that the sale will occur, if we complete a sale on terms contemplated by the letter of intent, we could incur a non-cash loss of up to $25 million, and all claims asserted against us in this matter would be dismissed with prejudice.
	On March 27, 2014, Salvatore DeSantis, an owner of a one-week vacation ownership interest at Marriott’s Harbour Lake, a project within our North America segment, filed a complaint in Orange County, Florida, Circuit Court against us and certain of our subsidiaries on behalf of himself and a putative class consisting of all owners of weeks-based Marriott Vacation Club vacation ownership interests on June 20, 2010, the date of the launch of our North America points-based program, Marriott Vacation Club Destinations TM (“MVCD”). The plaintiff alleges that the introduction of the MVCD program caused an actionable decrease in the value of his vacation ownership interest. The relief sought includes compensatory and exemplary damages, restitution, injunctive relief, interest and attorneys’ fees pursuant to the Florida Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act and common-law theories of breach of contract and breach of an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. We removed the matter to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. On May 30, 2014, we filed a motion to dismiss. In response, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, to which our response is due on July 31, 2014. We dispute the material allegations in this complaint and intend to defend against this action vigorously. Given the early stages of the action and the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.
	On May 20, 2014, we received notices of intent to initiate litigation or arbitration from two owners of weeks-based Marriott Vacation Club vacation ownership products at two of our resorts in Hawaii, two owners of such products at one of our resorts in California, and one owner of such products at one of our resorts in Massachusetts. The claimants, all of whom are represented by a single law firm, make allegations similar to those alleged by Mr. DeSantis discussed above that the introduction of the MVCD program caused an actionable decrease in the value of their vacation ownership interests. The claimants state that, if a satisfactory resolution of their concerns cannot be achieved, they will pursue their claims through litigation or arbitration, each on behalf of a putative class consisting of themselves and all others similarly situated. The notices indicated that the relief that would be sought would include compensatory and exemplary damages, restitution, injunctive relief, interest and attorneys’ fees pursuant to applicable timeshare and unfair trade practices acts and common-law theories of breach of contract and breach of an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. We dispute the material allegations in these notices and, if litigation or arbitration proceedings were commenced, we would defend against them vigorously. Given that these threatened claims are not yet the subject of pending litigation or arbitration, we cannot estimate a range of the potential liability, if any, at this time.
	Other
	We estimate the cash outflow associated with completing the phases of our existing portfolio of vacation ownership projects currently under development will be approximately $24 million, of which $10 million is included within liabilities on our Balance Sheet at June 20, 2014. This estimate is based on our current development plans, which remain subject to change, and we expect the phases currently under development will be completed by 2017.
	During the second quarter of 2014, we agreed to settle a dispute with a service provider relating to services provided to us prior to 2011. In connection with the settlement, we received a one-time payment of $8 million after the end of the second quarter from the service provider, which no longer provides services to us. We recorded a gain of $8 million as a result of the settlement, which is included in the Litigation settlement line on the Statement of Operations for the twelve weeks ended June 20, 2014.

	(1)	Interest rates are as of June 20, 2014.
	See Footnote No. 13, “Variable Interest Entities,” for a discussion of the collateral for the non-recourse debt associated with the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable and our non-recourse warehouse credit facility (the “Warehouse Credit Facility”). All of our other debt was, and to the extent currently outstanding is, recourse to us but unsecured. The Warehouse Credit Facility currently terminates on September 5, 2015 and if not renewed, any amounts outstanding thereunder would become due and payable 13 months after termination, at which time all principal and interest collected with respect to the vacation ownership notes receivable held in the Warehouse Credit Facility would be redirected to the lenders to pay down the outstanding debt under the facility. We generally expect to securitize our vacation ownership notes receivable, including any vacation ownership notes receivable held in the Warehouse Credit Facility, in the ABS market once a year.
	During the second quarter of 2014, we completed the securitization of a pool of $24 million of primarily highly-seasoned vacation ownership notes receivable that we had previously classified as not being eligible for securitization (the “Loans”). In connection with the securitization, investors purchased in a private placement $23 million in vacation ownership loan backed notes from the Kyuka Owner Trust 2014-A (the “2014-A Trust”) with a per annum interest rate of 6.25 percent in a private placement. We received gross cash proceeds of $23 million, before transaction expenses and required reserves. In addition, we received a subordinated residual interest in the 2014-A Trust through which we expect to realize the remaining value of the Loans over time. Of the $23 million, less than $1 million was used to pay transaction expenses and fund required reserves. The remainder will be used for general corporate purposes. We accounted for the securitization as a secured borrowing and therefore did not recognize a gain or loss as a result of this transaction. The Loans had previously been classified as not being eligible for securitization using criteria applicable to then current securitization transactions in the ABS market because they did not meet certain representation criteria required in such securitizations, or because of other factors that may have reflected investor demand in a securitization transaction.
	Although no cash borrowings were outstanding as of June 20, 2014 under our Revolving Corporate Credit Facility, any amounts that are borrowed under that facility, as well as obligations with respect to letters of credit issued pursuant to that facility, are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the borrower under, and guarantors of, that facility (which include most of our entities that are organized in the U.S.), in each case including inventory, subject to certain exceptions.

	(1)	The debt associated with our vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations is non-recourse to us.
	As the contractual terms of the underlying securitized vacation ownership notes receivable determine the maturities of the non-recourse debt associated with them, actual maturities may occur earlier than shown above due to prepayments by the vacation ownership notes receivable obligors.
	We paid cash for interest, net of amounts capitalized, of $14 million in the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 and $17 million in the twenty-four weeks ended June 14, 2013.
	Debt Associated with Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations
	Each of the transactions in which we have securitized vacation ownership notes receivable contains various triggers relating to the performance of the underlying vacation ownership notes receivable. If a pool of securitized vacation ownership notes receivable fails to perform within the pool’s established parameters (default or delinquency thresholds vary by transaction), transaction provisions effectively redirect the monthly excess spread we would otherwise receive from that pool (attributable to the interests we retained) to accelerate the principal payments to investors (taking into account the subordination of the different tranches to the extent there are multiple tranches) until the performance trigger is cured. During the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014, and as of June 20, 2014, no pools failed to perform within the established parameters. As of June 20, 2014, we had 7 securitized vacation ownership notes receivable pools outstanding.

	10. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK OF CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY
	In October 2011, our subsidiary, MVW US Holdings, Inc. (“MVW US Holdings”) issued $40 million of its mandatorily redeemable Series A (non-voting) preferred stock to Marriott International as part of Marriott International’s internal reorganization prior to the Spin-Off. Subsequently Marriott International sold all of this preferred stock to third-party investors. For the first five years after issuance, the Series A preferred stock will pay an annual cash dividend equal to the five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as of October 19, 2011, plus a spread of 10.958 percent, for a total annual cash dividend rate of 12 percent. On the fifth anniversary of issuance, if we do not elect to redeem the preferred stock, the annual cash dividend rate will be reset to the five-year U.S. Treasury Rate in effect on such date plus the same 10.958 percent spread. The Series A preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable by MVW US Holdings upon the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance but can be redeemed at our option after five years (i.e., beginning in October 2016) at par. The Series A preferred stock has an aggregate liquidation preference of $40 million plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and an additional premium if liquidation occurs during the first five years after the issuance of the preferred stock. As of June 20, 2014, 1,000 shares of Series A preferred stock were authorized, of which 40 shares were issued and outstanding. The dividends are recorded as a component of Interest expense as the Series A preferred stock is treated as a liability for accounting purposes.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION	'
	12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
	A total of 6 million shares were authorized for issuance under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan”). As of June 20, 2014, approximately 2 million shares were available for grants under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan.
	For share-based awards with service-only vesting conditions, we measure compensation expense related to share-based payment transactions with our employees and non-employee directors at fair value on the grant date. With respect to our employees, we recognize this expense on the Statements of Operations over the vesting period during which the employees provide service in exchange for the award; with respect to non-employee directors, we recognize this expense on the grant date. For share-based arrangements with performance vesting conditions, we recognize compensation expense once it is probable that the corresponding performance condition will be achieved.
	We recorded share-based compensation expense related to award grants to our officers, directors and employees of $4 million for each of the twelve weeks ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013, and $6 million for each of the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013. Our deferred compensation liability related to unvested awards held by our employees totaled $19 million and $13 million at June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014, respectively.
	Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)
	We granted 163,091 RSUs, exclusive of RSUs with performance vesting conditions, to our employees and non-employee directors during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014. RSUs issued to our employees generally vest over four years in annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant. RSUs issued to our non-employee directors vest on the date of grant. RSUs granted during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $52.49.
	During the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014, we granted RSUs with performance vesting conditions to members of management. The number of RSUs earned, if any, will be determined following the end of a three-year performance period based upon our cumulative achievement over that period of specific quantitative operating financial measures. The maximum number of RSUs that may be earned under the RSUs with performance-based vesting criteria granted during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 is approximately 62,000.
	Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”)
	We granted 57,906 SARs to members of management during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014. These SARs had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $27.98 and an exercise price of $52.09. SARs generally expire ten years after the date of grant and both vest and may be exercised in cumulative installments of one quarter of the grant at the end of each of the first four years following the date of grant.
	We use the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the SARs granted. For SARs granted under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Stock Plan during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014, the expected stock price volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility from the stock prices of a group of identified peer companies. The average expected life was calculated using the simplified method. The risk-free interest rate was calculated based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The expected annual dividend per share was $0 based on our expected dividend rate.
	The following table outlines the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of grants during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014:
	Expected volatility	55.1	%
	Dividend yield	0	%
	Risk-free rate	1.84	%
	Expected term (in years)	6.25

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES	'
	13. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
	In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, we analyze our variable interests, including loans, guarantees and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which we have a variable interest is a variable interest entity. Our analysis includes both quantitative and qualitative reviews. We base our quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flows of the entity, and our qualitative analysis on our review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability, and relevant financial agreements. We also use our qualitative analyses to determine if we must consolidate a variable interest entity because we are its primary beneficiary.
	Variable Interest Entities Related to Our Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Securitizations
	We periodically securitize, without recourse, through bankruptcy remote special purpose entities, notes receivable originated in connection with the sale of vacation ownership products. These vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations provide funding for us and transfer the economic risks and substantially all the benefits of the loans to third parties. In a vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, various classes of debt securities issued by the special purpose entities are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of vacation ownership notes receivable. We service the vacation ownership notes receivable. With each vacation ownership notes receivable securitization, we may retain a portion of the securities, subordinated tranches, interest-only strips, subordinated interests in accrued interest and fees on the securitized vacation ownership notes receivable or, in some cases, overcollateralization and cash reserve accounts.
	We created these entities to serve as a mechanism for holding assets and related liabilities, and the entities have no equity investment at risk, making them variable interest entities. We continue to service the vacation ownership notes receivable, transfer all proceeds collected to these special purpose entities, and retain rights to receive benefits that are potentially significant to the entities. Accordingly, we concluded that we are the entities’ primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidate them.
	The following table shows consolidated assets, which are collateral for the obligations of these variable interest entities, and consolidated liabilities included on our Balance Sheet at June 20, 2014:

Under the terms of our vacation ownership notes receivable securitizations, we have the right at our option to repurchase defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable at the outstanding principal balance. The transaction documents typically limit such repurchases to 15 to 20 percent of the transaction’s initial vacation ownership notes receivable principal balance. Our maximum exposure to loss relating to the entities that own these vacation ownership notes receivable is the overcollateralization amount (the difference between the loan collateral balance and the balance on the outstanding vacation ownership notes receivable), plus cash reserves and any residual interest in future cash flows from collateral.
Other Variable Interest Entities
We have an equity investment in the Joint Venture, a variable interest entity that previously developed and marketed vacation ownership and residential products in Hawaii. We concluded that the Joint Venture is a variable interest entity because the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional support from other venture parties. We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of the Joint Venture, as power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance is shared among the variable interest holders and, therefore, we do not consolidate the Joint Venture. In 2009, we fully impaired our equity investment in the Joint Venture and in certain notes receivable due from the Joint Venture. In 2010, the continued application of equity losses to our investment in the remaining outstanding notes receivable balance reduced its carrying value to zero. In addition, the Joint Venture was unable to pay promissory notes that matured on December 31, 2010 and August 1, 2011. Subsequently, the lenders issued a notice of default to the Joint Venture. The lenders initiated foreclosure proceedings with respect to unsold interests in the project. A foreclosure auction was held and, on January 31, 2013, a bid was accepted and confirmed. The sale was completed, and on June 13, 2013, we received $7 million of cash as a partial repayment of our previously fully reserved receivables due from the Joint Venture. As a result of the Kapalua Bay Settlement discussed in Footnote No. 8, “Contingencies and Commitments,” the Joint Venture’s obligations with respect to the remaining receivables were terminated.
We gave notice of breach or termination of various agreements, including management agreements with the owners’ associations at the project, marketing and sales agreements with the Joint Venture, and other agreements pursuant to which we provided services to the Joint Venture and, as we were unable to reach agreement with the owners’ associations with respect to our continued provision of services, termination of these agreements was effective on December 31, 2012. During the first quarter of 2014, we recorded a $2 million charge to increase our accrual for remaining costs that were expected to be incurred relating to our interests in the Joint Venture. During the second quarter of 2014, we reversed the $2 million charge. At June 20, 2014, we have an accrual of $8 million for potential future funding obligations, representing our remaining expected exposure to loss related to our involvement with the Joint Venture exclusive of any future costs that may be incurred pursuant to outstanding litigation matters, including those discussed in Footnote No. 8, “Contingencies and Commitments.”

	Subsequent to the Spin-Off, Marriott International continued to provide us with certain information technology, payroll, human resources and other administrative services pursuant to transition services agreements, most of which we had ceased using as of the end of 2013. In connection with our continued organizational and separation related activities, we have incurred certain expenses to complete our separation from Marriott International. These costs primarily relate to establishing our own information technology systems and services, independent payroll and accounts payable functions and reorganizing existing human resources, information technology and related finance and accounting organizations to support our stand-alone public company needs. We expect these efforts to be substantially completed in 2014. Organizational and separation related charges as reflected on our Statements of Operations were $1 million and $2 million for the twelve weeks ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013, respectively, and $2 million and $3 million for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013, respectively. In addition, less than $1 million and $2 million of additional separation related charges were capitalized to Property and equipment on our Balance Sheets during the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 2014 and June 14, 2013, respectively.

	We define our reportable segments based on the way in which the chief operating decision maker, currently our chief executive officer, manages the operations of the company for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. We operate in three reportable business segments:
		•		In our North America segment, we develop, market, sell and manage vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club and Grand Residences by Marriott brands. We also develop, market and sell vacation ownership and related products under The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club brand, as well as whole ownership residential products under The Ritz-Carlton Residences brand.
		•		In our Europe segment, we develop, market, sell and manage vacation ownership products in several locations in Europe. We are focusing on selling our existing projects and managing existing resorts. We do not have any current plans for new development in this segment.
		•		In our Asia Pacific segment, we develop, market, sell and manage the Marriott Vacation Club, Asia Pacific, a right-to-use points program that we specifically designed to appeal to the vacation preferences of the Asian market, as well as a weeks-based right-to-use product.
	We evaluate the performance of our segments based primarily on the results of the segment without allocating corporate expenses or income taxes. We do not allocate corporate interest expense, consumer financing interest expense, other financing expenses or general and administrative expenses to our segments. We include interest income specific to segment activities within the appropriate segment. We allocate other gains and losses and equity in earnings or losses from our joint ventures to each of our segments as appropriate. Corporate and other represents that portion of our revenues, equity in earnings or losses, and other gains or losses that are not allocable to our segments.

Business Operations	'
	Our Business
	Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (“Marriott Vacations Worldwide,” “we” or “us,” which includes our consolidated subsidiaries except where the context of the reference is to a single corporate entity) is the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer, seller and manager of vacation ownership and related products under the Marriott Vacation Club and Grand Residences by Marriott brands. We are also the exclusive worldwide developer, marketer and seller of vacation ownership and related products under The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club brand, and we have the non-exclusive right to develop, market and sell whole ownership residential products under The Ritz-Carlton Residences brand. The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. (“The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company”), a subsidiary of Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott International”), generally provides on-site management for Ritz-Carlton branded properties.
	Our business is grouped into three reportable segments: North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. As of June 20, 2014, we operated 62 properties in the United States and nine other countries and territories. We generate most of our revenues from four primary sources: selling vacation ownership products; managing our resorts; financing consumer purchases; and renting vacation ownership inventory.
Our Spin-Off from Marriott International, Inc.	'
	Our Spin-Off from Marriott International, Inc.
	On November 21, 2011, the spin-off of Marriott Vacations Worldwide from Marriott International (the “Spin-Off”) was completed. As a result of the Spin-Off, we became an independent public company, and our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VAC.” Following the Spin-Off, we and Marriott International have operated independently, and neither company has any ownership interest in the other.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation	'
	Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
	The interim consolidated financial statements presented herein and discussed below include 100 percent of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of Marriott Vacations Worldwide, all entities in which Marriott Vacations Worldwide has a controlling voting interest (“subsidiaries”), and those variable interest entities for which Marriott Vacations Worldwide is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).
	In order to make this report easier to read, we refer throughout to (i) our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations as our “Statements of Operations,” (iii) our Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets,” and (iv) our Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as our “Cash Flows.” In addition, references throughout to numbered “Footnotes” refer to the numbered Notes in these Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, unless otherwise noted.
	Unless otherwise specified, each reference to a particular quarter in these Financial Statements means the twelve weeks ended on the date shown in the following table, rather than the corresponding calendar quarter:
	Fiscal Year	Quarter-End Date
	2014 Second Quarter	June 20, 2014
	2014 First Quarter	March 28, 2014
	2013 Second Quarter	June 14, 2013
	2013 First Quarter	March 22, 2013
	In our opinion, our Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results may not be indicative of fiscal year performance because of, among other reasons, seasonal and short-term variations.
	These Financial Statements have not been audited. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Although we believe our footnote disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, you should read these Financial Statements in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to those consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2014.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, cost of vacation ownership products, inventory valuation, property and equipment valuation, loan loss reserves, Marriott Rewards customer loyalty program liability, self-insured medical plan reserves, equity-based compensation, income taxes, loss contingencies and exit and disposal activities reserves. Accordingly, actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.
	We have reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to our 2014 presentation.

	ASU No. 2014-08, which we adopted in the first quarter of 2014, raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. Our adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.
Future Adoption of Accounting Standards	'
	Future Adoption of Accounting Standards
	Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 – “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU No. 2014-09”)
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-09, which specifies how and when to recognize revenue and requires informative, relevant disclosures. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for financial statements issued for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and does not permit early adoption. We will adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2017 and are currently evaluating the impact it will have on our Financial Statements.
Vacation Ownership Notes Receivable Reserve Policy	'
	We record an estimate of expected uncollectibility on all notes receivable from vacation ownership purchasers as a reduction of revenues from the sale of vacation ownership products at the time we recognize profit on a vacation ownership product sale. We fully reserve for all defaulted vacation ownership notes receivable in addition to recording a reserve on the estimated uncollectible portion of the remaining vacation ownership notes receivable. For those vacation ownership notes receivable that are not in default, we assess collectibility based on pools of vacation ownership notes receivable because we hold large numbers of homogeneous vacation ownership notes receivable. We use the same criteria to estimate uncollectibility for non-securitized vacation ownership notes receivable and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable because they perform similarly. We estimate uncollectibility for each pool based on historical activity for similar vacation ownership notes receivable.
Loan Delinquency Policy	'
	Although we consider loans to owners to be past due if we do not receive payment within 30 days of the due date, we suspend accrual of interest only on those loans that are over 90 days past due. We consider loans over 150 days past due to be in default. We apply payments we receive for vacation ownership notes receivable on non-accrual status first to interest, then to principal and any remainder to fees. We resume accruing interest when vacation ownership notes receivable are less than 90 days past due. We do not accept payments for vacation ownership notes receivable during the foreclosure process unless the amount is sufficient to pay all past due principal, interest, fees and penalties owed and fully reinstate the note. We write off uncollectible vacation ownership notes receivable against the reserve once we receive title to the vacation ownership products through the foreclosure or deed-in-lieu process or, in Europe or Asia Pacific, when revocation is complete. For both non-securitized and securitized vacation ownership notes receivable, we estimated average remaining default rates of 6.96 percent and 7.13 percent as of June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014, respectively. A 0.5 percentage point increase in the estimated default rate would have resulted in an increase in our allowance for loan losses of $5 million as of both June 20, 2014 and January 3, 2014.
