Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Stock-Based Compensation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company provides different forms of stock-based compensation to its employees and non-employee directors. This includes stock options and restricted stocks units (RSUs), including performance shares units (PSUs). The fair value of the awards is determined on the grant date, based on the Company's closing stock price. For awards settled in shares, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the grant-date fair value net of estimated forfeitures over the vesting period. For awards settled in cash, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the fair value at each reporting date net of estimated forfeitures.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes are those of Computer Sciences Corporation, its subsidiaries, and those business entities in which the Company maintains a controlling interest, hereafter collectively referred to as “CSC” or “the Company.” Investments in business entities in which the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for by the equity method. Other investments are accounted for by the cost method. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton model in determining the fair value of options granted. The expected term is calculated based on the Company’s historical experience with respect to its stock plan activity in combination with an estimate of when vested and unexercised option shares will be exercised. The expected term of options is based on the two separate job tier classifications, which have distinct historical exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the zero-coupon interest rate of U.S. government issued Treasury strips with a period commensurate with the expected term of the options. Expected volatility is based on a blended approach, which uses an equal weighting of implied volatility and historical volatility. However, beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the historical volatility calculation was based on the Company’s six-year and seven-year historical daily closing price, rather than the ten-year historical used in prior periods, in order to bring this factor more closely into alignment with the expected terms of the stock options. The dividend yield assumption was added concurrent with the introduction of a cash dividend in fiscal 2011 and is based on the respective fiscal year dividend payouts. The Company periodically evaluates its significant assumptions used in the fair value calculation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Effective at the beginning of fiscal 2014, the Company began operating under new reportable segments: Global Business Services (GBS), Global Infrastructure Services (GIS), and North American Public Sector (NPS) (see Note 19). All prior period segment disclosures have been recast from those presented in the previously filed Form 10-K to reflect the Company's change in reportable segments.

The Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, and related notes, for the fiscal years ended March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012 have been recast from those presented in the previously filed Form 10-K to reflect discontinued operations of two businesses sold during fiscal 2014, as well as the business that CSC has committed to a plan to sell (see Note 4).

The Consolidated Balance Sheet for the year ended March 29, 2013 has not been recast to reflect the assets and liabilities divested as a result of the two fiscal 2014 discontinued operations. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for all the fiscal years presented include both continuing and the discontinued operations.

For classification of certain assets and liabilities of our U.S. federal government contracts as current or long-term, we use the duration of the related contract as our operating cycle, which is generally longer than one year.

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of historical experience, current events, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Amounts subject to significant judgment and estimates include, but are not limited to, contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method, cash flows used in the evaluation of impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, intangible assets, certain deferred costs, collectability of receivables, reserves for uncertain tax benefits, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, loss accruals for litigation, pension related liabilities, inputs used for computing stock-based compensation and the fair value of derivative instruments.

The Company's income (loss) from continuing operations, before taxes and noncontrolling interests, and diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations included the following adjustments due to changes in estimated profitability on fixed price contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method for the fiscal years presented:

Revenue Recognition

The Company's primary service offerings are information technology (IT) outsourcing, other professional services, or a combination thereof. Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services or products have been provided to the client, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. For non-software arrangements that include multiple-elements, revenue recognition involves the identification of separate units of accounting after consideration of combining and/or segmenting contracts and allocation of the arrangement consideration to the units of accounting on the basis of their relative selling price. Revenue under such contracts is recognized based upon the levels of services delivered in the periods in which they are provided. Upfront fees billed for the contract set-up include configuring hardware to new service levels, consolidating and migrating customer architecture from physical to virtual servers, and establishing disaster recoverability capability. These activities do not qualify as separate units of accounting and they are deferred until service commencement and recognized ratably over the period of performance during the period in which CSC provides the related service, which is the life of the contract. Costs are expensed as incurred, except for direct and incremental set-up costs that are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract (see Outsourcing Contract Costs below). See the section below regarding software transactions that include multiple elements.

The Company provides these services under time and materials, cost-reimbursable, unit-price and fixed-price contracts, the revenue for which is recognized in the following manner:

Time and materials contracts - Revenue is recorded at agreed-upon billing rates at the time services are provided.

Cost-reimbursable contracts - Revenue is recorded at the time costs are incurred and associated fees are recognized when probable and estimable by applying an estimated factor to costs as incurred, such factor being determined by the contract provisions and prior experience.

Unit-price contracts - Revenue is recognized on unit-price contracts based on unit metrics multiplied by the agreed upon contract unit price or when services are delivered.

Fixed-price contracts - For certain fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method as described below; these include certain software development projects, all long-term construction-type contracts, and certain fixed-price arrangements with the U.S. federal government. For other fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of the services delivered to date as a percentage of the total services to deliver over the contract term. If output or input measures are not available or cannot be reasonably estimated, revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term.

Under the percentage-of-completion method, progress towards completion is measured based on either achievement of specified contract milestones, costs incurred as a proportion of estimated total costs, or other measures of progress when available. Profit in a given period is reported at the estimated profit margin to be achieved on the overall contract. This method can result in the recognition of unbilled receivables, the deferral of costs as work in process, or deferral of profit on these contracts. Contracts that require estimates at completion using the percentage-of-completion method accounted for approximately 18.7% of the Company's revenues for fiscal 2014. Management regularly reviews project profitability and underlying estimates. Revisions to the estimates at completion are reflected in results of operations as a change in accounting estimate in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known by management. Provisions for estimated losses at completion, if any, are recognized in the period in which the loss becomes evident. The provision includes estimated costs in excess of estimated revenue and any profit margin previously recognized.

Multiple-element software sales - For multiple-element arrangements that involve the sale of CSC proprietary software, post contract customer support, and other software-related services, vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value is required to allocate and recognize revenue for each element. VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged where each deliverable is sold separately. In situations where VSOE of fair value exists for all undelivered elements but not a delivered element (typically the software license element), the residual method is used to allocate revenue to the undelivered elements equal to their VSOE value with the remainder allocated to the delivered element. If significant customization is required, and VSOE is available to support accounting for the software as a separate unit of account, software revenue is recognized as the related software customization services are performed in accordance with the percentage-of-completion method described above. In situations where VSOE of fair value does not exist for all of the undelivered software-related elements, revenue is deferred until only one undelivered element remains and then recognized following the pattern of delivery of the final undelivered element.

Depreciation and Amortization

The Company’s depreciation and amortization policies are as follows:

Property and Equipment:

Buildings

Up to 40 years

Computers and related equipment

3 to 5 years

Furniture and other equipment

2 to 15 years

Leasehold improvements

Shorter of lease term or useful life

Software

2 to 10 years

Outsourcing contract costs

Contract life, excluding option years

Customer related intangibles

Expected customer service life

Acquired contract related intangibles

Contract life and first contract renewal, where applicable

The cost of property and equipment, less applicable residual values, is depreciated using predominately the straight-line method. Depreciation commences when the specific asset is complete, installed and ready for normal use.

Software and outsourcing contract costs are amortized using predominately the straight-line method. Acquired contract related and customer related intangible assets are amortized in proportion to the estimated undiscounted cash flows projected over the estimated life of the asset or on a straight-line basis if such cash flows cannot be reliably estimated.

Pension and Other Benefit Plans

The Company and its subsidiaries offer a number of pension and postretirement benefits, life insurance benefits, deferred compensation, and other plans. All plans are accounted for using the guidance of ASC 710 "Compensation - General" and ASC 715 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits” and are measured as of the end of the fiscal year.

CSC utilizes actuarial methods to measure the benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost/(income) for its pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Inherent in the application of these actuarial methods are key assumptions, including, but not limited to, discount rates, expected long-term rates of return on plan assets, mortality rates, rates of compensation increases, and medical cost trend rates. Company management evaluates these assumptions annually and updates assumptions as necessary.

Net actuarial gains or losses are amortized to expense in future periods when they exceed ten percent of the greater of the plan assets or projected benefit obligations by benefit plan. The excess of gains or losses over the ten percent threshold are subject to amortization over the average future service period for employees of plans that are predominately active, or over the average life expectancy of all participants for plans that are predominately inactive or frozen to new accruals. Most of CSC's pension liabilities are frozen to new accruals.

The fair value of assets are determined based on the prevailing market prices or estimated fair value of investments when quoted prices are not available.

Software Development Costs

The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop commercial software products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed after establishing technological feasibility until such time the software products are available for general release to customers. Costs incurred to establish technological feasibility are charged to expense as incurred. Enhancements to software products are capitalized where such enhancements extend the life or significantly expand the marketability of the products. Amortization of capitalized software development costs is determined separately for each software product. Annual amortization expense is calculated based on the greater of the ratio of current gross revenues for each product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for the product or the straight-line amortization method over the estimated economic life of the product.

Unamortized capitalized software costs associated with commercial software products are regularly evaluated for impairment on a product-by-product basis by a comparison of the unamortized balance to the product’s net realizable value. The net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from that product reduced by the related estimated future costs. When the unamortized balance exceeds the net realizable value, the unamortized balance is written down to the net realizable value and an impairment charge is recorded.

The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop internal-use computer software during the application development stage. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred in connection with development of upgrades or enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized. Capitalized costs associated with internal-use software are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. Purchased software is capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Internal-use software assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.

Outsourcing Contract Costs

Costs on outsourcing contracts, including costs incurred for bid and proposal activities, are generally expensed as incurred. However, certain costs incurred upon initiation of an outsourcing contract are deferred and expensed over the contract life. These costs represent incremental external costs or certain specific internal costs that are directly related to the contract acquisition or transition activities. Such capitalized costs can be separated into two principal categories: contract acquisition costs and transition/set-up costs. The primary types of costs that may be capitalized include labor and related fringe benefits, subcontractor costs, travel costs, and premiums on asset purchases.

Premiums are amounts paid to customers in excess of the fair market value of assets acquired. Fixed assets acquired in connection with outsourcing transactions are capitalized at fair value and depreciated consistent with the fixed asset policies described above. Premiums paid are capitalized as outsourcing contract costs and amortized over the contract life. The amortization of outsourcing contract cost premiums is accounted for as a reduction in revenue. The second principal category of capitalized outsourcing costs is transition/set-up costs. Such costs are primarily associated with the installation of systems and processes and are amortized over the contract life.

In the event indications exist that an outsourcing contract cost balance related to a particular contract may be impaired, undiscounted estimated cash flows of the contract are projected over its remaining term and compared to the associated long-lived asset group including the unamortized outsourcing contract cost balance. If the projected cash flows are not adequate to recover the unamortized cost balance of the asset group, the balance would be adjusted based on the fair value of the long-lived assets group in the period such a determination is made. The primary indicator used to determine when impairment testing should be performed is when a contract is materially underperforming, or is expected to materially underperform in the future, as compared to the original bid model or subsequent annual budgets.

Terminations of outsourcing contracts, including transfer of assets either back to the customer or to another IT provider, prior to the end of their committed contract terms, are infrequent due to the complex transition of personnel, assets, methodologies, and processes involved with outsourcing transactions. In the event of an early termination, the Company and the customer, pursuant to certain contractual provisions, engage in discussions to determine the recovery of unamortized contract costs, lost profits, transfer of personnel, rights to implemented systems and processes, as well as other matters.

Acquisition Accounting and Goodwill

When the Company acquires a controlling financial interest through a business combination, CSC uses the acquisition method of accounting to allocate the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are recorded at fair value. Any excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, is recognized as goodwill.

If the initial accounting for an acquisition is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which it occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. During the measurement period - no longer than one year from the date of the acquisition - the Company retroactively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date if CSC obtains new information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have changed the measurement of the amounts originally recognized. Any measurement adjustments to the acquired assets or the assumed liabilities are recorded with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

Acquired in-process research and development intangible assets (IPR&D) are initially capitalized at fair value as intangible assets with indefinite lives and are assessed for impairment thereafter. When a specific project within acquired IPR&D is completed, the corresponding amount of acquired IPR&D is reclassified as an amortizable intangible asset and is amortized over the asset's estimated useful life.

For contingent consideration recorded as a liability, the Company initially measures the amount at fair value as of the acquisition date and adjusts the liability, if needed, to fair value each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, other than measurement period adjustments, are recognized as operating income or expense.

Acquisition-related expenses costs are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from the acquisition date.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if circumstances change, or if an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining whether an event indicating impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indicators include, among other things: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; unanticipated competition; the disposal of a significant component of a reporting unit; and the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit.

The goodwill impairment test initially involves the assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is not more likely than not, then the subsequent two-step process is not required. However, the Company has the option to bypass this initial qualitative assessment for its annual test and proceed directly to step one of the two-step process for one or more of its reporting units. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds it fair value, then it proceeds with the subsequent two-step goodwill impairment testing process. The first step is to compare each reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. If the reporting unit’s fair value exceeds its carrying value, no further procedures are required and no impairment is recorded. However, if a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, an impairment of goodwill may exist, requiring a second step to measure the amount of any impairment loss. In the second step, the reporting unit’s fair value is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, for the sole purpose of calculating the implied fair value of goodwill - as if applying the acquisition method of accounting described above to the reporting unit's assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the recorded goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded in operations for the difference.

When the Company performs step one of the two-step test for a reporting unit, it estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using both the income approach and the market approach. The income approach incorporates the use of a discounted cash flow method in which the estimated future cash flows and terminal values for each reporting unit are discounted to a present value using a discount rate. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of economic and market conditions, which drive key assumptions of revenue growth rates, operating margins, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. The discount rate in turn is based on the specific risk characteristics of each reporting unit, the weighted-average cost of capital and its underlying forecasts. The market approach estimates fair value by applying performance-metric multiples to the reporting unit's prior and expected operating performance. The multiples are derived from comparable publicly traded companies that have operating and investment characteristics similar to those of the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit derived using one approach is significantly different from the fair value estimate using the other approach, the Company reevaluates its assumptions used in the two models. The fair values determined by the market approach and income approach, as described above, are weighted to determine the fair value for each reporting unit. The weighted values assigned to each reporting unit are driven by two primary factors: 1) the number of comparable publicly traded companies used in the market approach, and 2) the similarity of the operating and investment characteristics of the reporting units to the comparable publicly traded companies used in the market approach.

If CSC performs a step one analysis for all of its reporting units in conjunction with its annual goodwill testing, it also compares the sum of all of its reporting units’ fair values to the Company's market capitalization (per-share stock price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding) and calculates an implied control premium (the excess of the sum of the reporting units’ fair values over the market capitalization). The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the control premium by comparing it to control premiums derived from recent comparable business combinations. If the implied control premium is not reasonable in light of the actual acquisition transactions, the Company reevaluates its fair value estimates of the reporting units by adjusting the discount rates and/or other assumptions. As a result, when CSC’s stock price - and thus market capitalization - is low relative to the sum of the estimated fair value of its reporting units, this reevaluation can result in reductions to its estimated fair values for the reporting units.

Fair Value

The Company uses the fair value measurement guidance to value certain of its assets and liabilities. Under this guidance, assets and liabilities are required to be valued based on assumptions used by a market participant, consistent with the following hierarchy of inputs:

Level 1—

Quoted prices unadjusted for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.

Level 2—

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for similar assets or liabilities.

Level 3—

Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions which market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The assets and liabilities which are valued using the fair value measurement guidance, on a recurring basis, include the Company’s money market funds and money market deposits, time deposits, short-term investments, pension assets, and foreign currency derivatives comprised of forward and option contracts. The fair value of the forward contracts is based on quoted prices for similar but not identical derivative financial instruments; as such, the inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. Option contracts are valued using inputs which are based on quoted pricing intervals from external valuation models, which do not involve management judgment and as such, these inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. Certain pension assets are valued using model based pricing methods that use observable market data; as such these inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. There were no significant assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs.

Receivables

Receivables consist of amounts billed and currently due from customers, amounts earned but unbilled (including contracts measured under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting), amounts retained by the customer until the completion of a specified contract, completion of U.S. federal government audit activities, negotiation of contract modification, and claims.

Allowances for uncollectible billed trade receivables are estimated based on a combination of write-off history, aging analysis and any specific known collectability issues. Unbilled amounts under contracts in progress that are recoverable do not have an allowance for credit losses. Adjustments to unbilled amounts under contracts in progress related to credit quality, should they occur, would be recorded as a reduction of revenue.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets or groups of assets is assessed based on a comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated future net cash flows. If estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are less than the carrying amount, an expense is recorded in the amount, if any, required to reduce the carrying amount to fair value. Fair value is determined based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, comparable market values. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their fair value less costs to sell.

Income Taxes

Accounting for income taxes requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company maintains valuation allowances when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the Company’s tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset.

The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination. Uncertain tax positions are measured based on the probabilities that the uncertain tax position will be realized upon final settlement (see Note 12).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of time deposits, money market funds and money market deposit accounts with a number of institutions that have high credit ratings.

Foreign Currency

The Company has determined that, generally, the local currency of its foreign affiliates is their functional currency. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the foreign affiliates are translated from their respective functional currency to U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates, income and expense accounts are translated at the average rates in effect during the year, and equity accounts are translated at historical rates. The resulting translation adjustment is reported in the Statement of Other Comprehensive Income and recorded as part of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).

To manage the exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts (see Note 8). The use of these derivative instruments is intended to offset, to the extent possible, the gains and losses from remeasurement of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. Gains and losses from remeasurement of the Company’s foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, and remeasurement and settlement of the related foreign currency derivatives are recorded in other (income) expense.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (EPS) are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflect the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and equity awards.

New Accounting Standards

During fiscal year 2014, the Company adopted the following recent Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs):

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 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 2013-11), which clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. An exception to this rule occurs when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position; or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose. For these exceptions, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in ASU 2013-11 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments in ASU No. 2013-11 are consistent with CSC's existing practices and adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material effect on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity” (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 resolves the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, "Consolidation - Overall," or Subtopic 830-30, "Foreign Currency Matters - Translation of Financial Statements," applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part of or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 stipulates that when a parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in such an entity, the parent should apply Subtopic 830-30 and release the cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. ASU 2013-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments in this ASU are consistent with CSC's existing practices and adoption of ASU 2013-05 did not have a material effect on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”), which requires entities to disclose the effect of significant reclassifications out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the respective line items in net income unless the amounts are not reclassified in their entirety to net income. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, entities are required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the amendments of this update during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and included additional disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 15).

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), which was subsequently amended in January 2013 when the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01 “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” Together, these ASUs provide guidance on disclosure of information pertaining to the offsetting (netting) of assets and liabilities in the financial statements. The amendments in these ASUs affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that either (1) offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45 or (2) are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. ASU 2011-11 amends the existing disclosure requirements on offsetting in ASC 210-20-50 by requiring disclosures relating to gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities, the amounts that are offset, net amounts presented in the balance sheet, and amounts subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in these ASUs became effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the ASUs during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and included additional disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 8).

Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

The following ASUs were recently issued but have not yet been adopted by CSC:

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 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 2014-08”), which changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20 “Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations.” The ASU changes the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Under current U.S. GAAP, many disposals, some of which may be routine in nature and not representative of a substantive change in an entity’s strategy, are reported in discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures for discontinued operations designed to provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows related to discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 also requires an entity to disclose the pretax profit or loss (or change in net assets for a not-for-profit entity) of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in ASU 2014-08 are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. CSC is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-08 may have on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-05, "Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853) (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2014-05”). ASU 2014-05 provides guidance on the accounting for service concession arrangements, which are arrangements between a public-sector entity grantor and an operating entity under which the operating entity operates the grantor’s infrastructure (e.g. airports, roads, or bridges). The operating entity also may provide the construction, upgrading, or maintenance services of the grantor’s infrastructure. ASU 2014-05 specifies that an operating entity should not account for a service concession arrangement that is within the scope of this ASU as a lease in accordance with Topic 840, "Leases." ASU 2014-05 also specifies that the infrastructure used in a service concession arrangement should not be recognized as property, plant, and equipment of the operating entity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. For CSC, ASU 2014-05 will be effective beginning in fiscal 2016. CSC is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting the ASU on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date” (“ASU 2013-04”). ASU 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in ASU 2013-04 also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendments in ASU 2013-04 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. CSC will be required to adopt the amendments in this ASU beginning in fiscal 2015. CSC is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2013-04 may have on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.

	Investigations and Out of Period Adjustments
	Summary of Audit Committee and SEC Investigations Related to the Out of Period Adjustments
	As previously disclosed, the Company initiated an investigation into out of period adjustments resulting from certain accounting errors in its former Managed Services Sector (MSS) segment, primarily involving accounting irregularities in the Nordic region. Initially, the investigation was conducted by Company personnel, but outside Company counsel and forensic accountants retained by such counsel later assisted in the Company's investigation. On January 28, 2011, the Company was notified by the SEC's Division of Enforcement that it had commenced a formal civil investigation relating to these matters, which investigation has been expanded to other matters subsequently identified by the SEC, including matters specified in subpoenas issued to the Company from time to time by the SEC's Division of Enforcement as well as matters under investigation by the Audit Committee, as further described below. The Company is cooperating in the SEC's investigation.
	On May 2, 2011, the Audit Committee commenced an independent investigation into the matters relating to the former MSS segment and the Nordic region, matters identified by subpoenas issued by the SEC's Division of Enforcement, and certain other accounting matters identified by the Audit Committee and retained independent counsel to represent CSC on behalf of, and under the exclusive direction of, the Audit Committee in connection with such independent investigation. Independent counsel retained forensic accountants to assist with their work. Independent counsel also represents CSC on behalf of, and under the exclusive direction of, the Audit Committee in connection with the investigation by the SEC's Division of Enforcement.
	The Audit Committee’s investigation was expanded to encompass (i) the Company’s operations in Australia, (ii) certain aspects of the Company’s accounting practices within its Americas Outsourcing operation, and (iii) certain of the Company’s accounting practices that involve the percentage-of-completion accounting method, including the Company’s contract with the U.K. National Health Service (NHS). In the course of the Audit Committee's expanded investigation, accounting errors and irregularities were identified. As a result, certain personnel have been reprimanded, suspended, terminated and/or have resigned. The Audit Committee determined in August 2012 that its independent investigation was complete. The Audit Committee instructed its independent counsel to cooperate with the SEC's Division of Enforcement by completing production of documents and providing any further information requested by the SEC's Division of Enforcement.
	In addition to the matters noted above, the SEC's Division of Enforcement is continuing its investigation involving its concerns with certain of the Company's prior disclosures and accounting determinations with respect to the Company's contract with the NHS and the possible impact of such matters on the Company's financial statements for years prior to the Company's current fiscal year. The Company and the Audit Committee and its independent counsel are continuing to respond to SEC questions and to cooperate with the SEC's Division of Enforcement in its investigation of prior disclosures and accounting determinations with respect to the Company's contract with the NHS. The SEC's investigative activities are ongoing.
	In addition, the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance has issued comment letters to the Company requesting, among other things, additional information regarding its previously disclosed adjustments in connection with the above-referenced accounting errors, the Company's conclusions relating to the materiality of such adjustments, and the Company's analysis of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting. The SEC's Division of Corporation Finance's comment letter process is ongoing, and the Company is continuing to cooperate with that process.
	The investigation being conducted by the SEC's Division of Enforcement and the review of the Company's financial disclosures by the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance are continuing and could identify other accounting errors, irregularities or other areas of review. As a result, we have incurred and may continue to incur significant legal and accounting expenditures. As the Company previously disclosed, certain of its non-U.S. employees and certain of its former employees, including certain former executives in the United States, have received Wells notices from the SEC’s Division of Enforcement in connection with its ongoing investigation of the Company. The Company received a Wells notice from the SEC’s Division of Enforcement on December 11, 2013. A Wells notice is not a formal allegation or a finding of wrongdoing; it is a preliminary determination by the SEC Enforcement Staff to recommend that the Commission file a civil enforcement action or administrative proceeding against the recipient. Under SEC procedures, a recipient of a Wells notice has an opportunity to respond in the form of a Wells submission that seeks to persuade the Commission that such an action should not be brought. The Company has been availing itself of the Wells process by making a Wells submission to explain its views concerning such matters, which are aided by the Company Audit Committee's independent investigation and certain expert opinions of outside professionals. The Company made such a submission on January 14, 2014 and a supplemental submission on April 9, 2014. The Company, through outside counsel, has been in continuing discussions with the SEC Enforcement Staff concerning a potential resolution of the staff’s investigation involving the Company. However, to date those discussions have not resulted in a resolution. The Company is unable to estimate with confidence or certainty how long the SEC process will last or its ultimate outcome, including whether the Company will reach a settlement with the SEC and, if so, the amount of any related monetary fine and other possible remedies. In addition, the Company is unable to predict the timing of the completion of the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance's review of its financial disclosures or the outcome of such review. Publicity surrounding the foregoing or any enforcement action as a result of the SEC's investigation, even if ultimately resolved favorably for CSC, could have an adverse impact on the Company's reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

	Fiscal 2014 Adjustments Financial Impact Summary
	During fiscal 2014, the Company identified and recorded net adjustments increasing income from continuing operations before taxes by $2 million that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years. This net impact on income from continuing operations before taxes for fiscal 2014 is comprised of the following:
	•	net adjustments decreasing fourth quarter pre-tax income by $1 million primarily resulting from the recognition of impairment charges on abandoned capitalized software costs;
	•	net adjustments increasing third quarter pre-tax income by $5 million primarily resulting from the recognition of revenue on previously delivered software products and services and previously delivered outsourcing services, offset by charges to cost of services (COS) relating to previously delivered software productions and services and a margin correction on long-term contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion revenue method;
	•	net adjustments decreasing second quarter pre-tax income by $11 million primarily resulting from the reversal of revenue due to deferral of revenue for undelivered elements on software contracts lacking vendor specific objective evidence and margin corrections on contracts under percentage of completion accounting, a charge to COS for reversal of previously deferred costs and a charge to selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense reversing excess capitalization associated with internal systems development; and
	•	net adjustments increasing first quarter pre-tax income by $9 million primarily resulting from the corrections of revenues and costs in its GBS segment, correction of payroll expenses within its GBS segment, corrections to record adjustments that were identified late in the close process but not included in the Company's consolidated fiscal 2013 financial statements.
	Adjustments recorded during fiscal 2014 that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years decreased net income attributable to CSC common shareholders by $18 million. This decrease is attributable to the tax effect of the adjustments described above, a net $8 million of tax expense resulting from discrete tax items that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years and the effect of income from discontinued operations, net of tax of $2 million. The discrete tax expenses are primarily attributable to a $10 million increase in liabilities for uncertain tax positions associated with a tax restructuring of one of the Company's operating subsidiaries and to the tax effect of the net pre-tax adjustments.
	The following table summarizes the cumulative effect on net income attributable to CSC common shareholders of the consolidated out of period adjustments recorded during fiscal 2014 under the rollover method. The amounts noted below also include certain adjustments that only impacted quarters (unaudited) within fiscal 2014, but had no net impact on the full year fiscal 2014 results:
			Fiscal 2014

	Discontinued operations		0.46			0.01			0.47
	Total		$	4.47		$	0.12		$	4.59
	The out of period adjustments affecting income from continuing operations before taxes during the twelve months ended March 28, 2014 under the rollover method are related to the following consolidated balance sheet line items:
	•	Accounts receivable ($1 million decrease);
	•	Prepaid expenses and other current assets ($1 million increase);
	•	Software ($2 million decrease);
	•	Other assets ($1 million decrease);
	•	Property and equipment ($1 million decrease);
	•	Accrued payroll and related costs ($8 million decrease);
•	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities ($18 million decrease); and
•	Deferred revenue ($20 million increase).
The Company has determined that the impact of the consolidated out of period adjustments recorded in fiscal 2014 is immaterial to the consolidated results, financial position and cash flows for fiscal 2014 and prior years. Consequently, the cumulative effect of these adjustments was recorded during fiscal 2014.
Fiscal 2013 Adjustments Financial Impact Summary
During fiscal 2013, the Company identified and recorded net adjustments decreasing income from continuing operations before taxes by $6 million that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years. This net impact on income from continuing operations before taxes for fiscal 2013 is comprised of the following:
•	net adjustments decreasing fourth quarter pre-tax income by $9 million resulting primarily from the correction of inappropriately capitalized operating costs originating from the Company's GIS segment, a software revenue recognition correction originating from the Company's GBS segment and the correction of understated payroll and related expenses at Corporate;
•	net adjustments decreasing third quarter pre-tax income by $1 million primarily resulting from the correction of useful lives of property and equipment in service at a GIS contract that were inconsistent with established CSC accounting conventions;
•	net adjustments increasing second quarter pre-tax income by $5 million primarily resulting from the correction of accounting errors identified by the Company related to costs incurred under the NHS contract (see below for more discussion of out of period adjustments related to the Company's NHS contract); and
•	net adjustments decreasing first quarter pre-tax income by $1 million primarily resulting from the corrections of fiscal 2012 revenue recognized on a software contract in the Company's GBS segment, corrections of fiscal 2012 restructuring cost accruals originating primarily from the Company's GBS and GIS segments and corrections to record adjustments that were identified late in the close process but not included in the Company's consolidated fiscal 2012 financial statements
Adjustments recorded during fiscal 2013 that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years increased net income attributable to CSC common shareholders by $7 million. This increase is attributable to the tax effect of the adjustments described above and $5 million of tax benefit resulting from discrete tax items that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years. The discrete tax benefits are primarily attributable to the adjustment of the deferred tax liability related to intellectual property assets.
Further adjustments were identified and recorded in fiscal 2014 related to fiscal 2013 that increased the net error reported by $4 million.
NHS
As previously disclosed in fiscal 2012 and in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company had identified certain additional items related to the investigation of the Company's use of the percentage-of-completion accounting method used on the NHS contract. During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, based on its analysis of these items, the Company recorded net credits of $9 million in pre-tax out of period adjustments impacting prior fiscal years. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company identified additional prior period errors. Such errors identified in the third quarter, which were self-correcting in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, have no impact on income from continuing operations before taxes for fiscal 2013. The accounting errors identified during fiscal 2013 are primarily related to either costs incurred under the contract or the estimation of contract revenues and costs at completion, which resulted in the overstatement of income from continuing operations before taxes. The Company has concluded that there is no cumulative impact of this overstatement as a result of the $1.5 billion specified contract charge recorded as of December 30, 2011 being overstated by the same amount.
The Company has concluded that the errors identified during fiscal 2013 do not appear to have any impact on amounts charged to the NHS. Based on information provided by independent counsel, the Company believes that a small portion of such adjustments should be characterized as intentional accounting irregularities. The impact on income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes of the out of period adjustments identified in fiscal 2013 related to the Company's NHS contract is attributable to the following prior fiscal years:
		Increase/(Decrease)
(Amounts in millions)		Fiscal 2013 Adjustments

The out of period adjustments affecting loss from continuing operations before taxes during the twelve months ended March 29, 2013 under the rollover method are related to the following consolidated balance sheet line items:
•	Prepaid expenses and other current assets ($14 million increase);
•	Software ($1 million increase);
•	Outsourcing contract costs ($1 million decrease);
•	Other assets ($5 million decrease);
•	Property and equipment ($4 million decrease);
•	Accrued payroll and related costs ($9 million increase);
•	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities ($9 million increase); and
•	Deferred revenue ($3 million decrease).
The Company has determined that the impact of the consolidated out of period adjustments recorded in fiscal 2014 and 2013 is immaterial to the consolidated results, financial position and cash flows for fiscal 2013 and prior years. Consequently, the cumulative effect of these adjustments was recorded during fiscal 2014 and 2013.
Fiscal 2012 Adjustments Financial Impact Summary
During fiscal 2012, the Company recorded various pre-tax adjustments that should have been recorded in prior fiscal years. The aggregate fiscal 2012 adjustments increased the loss from continuing operations before taxes by $79 million ($63 million net of tax) and were comprised of $13 million of charges relating to operations in the Nordic region, $23 million of charges relating to the Company's operations in Australia, and $25 million of charges originating from the NHS contract in the Company's GBS segment. Additionally, $16 million and $2 million of charges were recorded in the NPS segment and other operations of the Company, respectively. The fiscal 2012 out of period adjustments primarily related to the Company’s GIS and GBS segments, with $24 million and $39 million of adjustments within GIS and GBS, respectively. Further adjustments were identified and recorded in fiscal 2014 and 2013 related to fiscal 2012 that decreased the net error by $6 million and increased the net error by $7 million, respectively.
Nordic Region
The Company attributes the $13 million in pre-tax adjustments recorded in the Nordic region in fiscal 2012 to miscellaneous errors and not to any accounting irregularities or intentional misconduct other than a $1 million operating lease adjustment noted in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 which was a refinement of an error previously corrected and reported in fiscal 2011.
Australia
As previously disclosed, in the course of the Australia investigation initiated in fiscal 2012, accounting errors and irregularities were identified. As a result, certain personnel in Australia have been reprimanded, terminated and/or resigned. The Company attributes the $23 million of pre-tax adjustments recorded in fiscal 2012 to either intentional accounting irregularities (intentional irregularities) or other accounting errors (Other Errors). Other Errors include both unintentional errors and errors for which the categorization is unclear. The categorizations were provided to the Company through the independent investigation. The impact of the adjustments on income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes is attributable to the following prior fiscal years:
		Increase/(Decrease)
(Amounts in millions)		Fiscal 2008 &			Fiscal 2009 (unaudited)			Fiscal 2010			Fiscal 2011			Total
		Prior (unaudited)
Intentional irregularities		$	10		$	(7	)	$	(4	)	$	1		$	—
Other Errors		(7		)	(16		)	3			(3		)	(23		)
		$	3		$	(23	)	$	(1	)	$	(2	)	$	(23	)
NHS
As previously disclosed, in fiscal 2012, $25 million of out of period adjustments reducing income from continuing operations related to the Company's NHS contract were identified and recorded. During the course of the investigation in fiscal 2012 of the percentage-of-completion accounting method used on the Company's NHS contract, certain accounting errors were identified related to costs incurred under the contract, which resulted in errors in the recognition of income from continuing operations that would have reduced by approximately $24 million the $1.5 billion write-off recorded by the Company in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. Although the Company has concluded that these errors do not appear to have any impact on amounts charged to the NHS, the errors have impacted the operating income recognized on the NHS contract. The exclusion of certain costs incurred under the contract caused the estimated margin at completion, which determines the operating income that is booked when revenue milestones are achieved, to be overstated. Although the Company has concluded that there is no cumulative impact as a result of the $1.5 billion charge relating to the NHS contract recorded as of December 30, 2011, operating income from fiscal year 2007 through and including fiscal 2011 has been overstated by a total of approximately $24 million and, therefore, the charge taken by the Company as of December 30, 2011 was overstated by approximately the same amount.
Certain additional items had been identified related to the NHS contract that could have had an effect on the amount and the allocation of the out of period adjustments for fiscal 2012 and prior fiscal years. These additional items were subject to further investigation and therefore were not recorded in fiscal 2012. See discussion of fiscal 2013 adjustments above for further information regarding the impact of such items.
Certain CSC finance employees based in the U. K. were aware prior to fiscal 2012 of the aforementioned errors, but those employees failed to appropriately correct the errors. Therefore, the Company has classified these errors as intentional. Such categorization was provided to the Company through the independent investigation. As a result, certain personnel have been suspended.
The impact on income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes of the $25 million of out of period adjustments identified in fiscal 2012 related to the Company's NHS contract is attributable to the following prior fiscal years:
	Increase/(Decrease)
(Amounts in millions)	Fiscal 2012 Adjustments
Fiscal 2012	$	25
Fiscal 2011	(7		)
Fiscal 2010	(4		)
Prior fiscal years (unaudited)	(14		)
NPS
As previously reported, in fiscal 2012 the Company identified and recorded pre-tax adjustments reducing income from continuing operations before taxes by $16 million. Such adjustments were identified by the Company and were primarily related to the percentage-of-completion accounting adjustments.
Americas Outsourcing
As previously disclosed, in the course of the independent investigation of Americas Outsourcing accounting practices, accounting conventions used by Americas Outsourcing relating to intraperiod cost allocations were determined to be unintentional accounting errors. The errors did not have an impact on a fiscal year basis. The Company also determined that other operating units employed similar practices and made necessary corrections.
The following table summarizes the cumulative effect on the fiscal 2012 net loss attributable to CSC common shareholders of the consolidated out of period adjustments recorded during fiscal 2014, 2013, and 2012 under the rollover method. The amounts noted below also include certain adjustments that only impacted quarters (unaudited) within fiscal 2012, but had no net impact on the full year fiscal 2012 results:

The Company has determined that the impact of the consolidated out of period adjustments recorded in fiscal 2014, 2013, and 2012 is immaterial to the consolidated results, financial position and cash flows for fiscal 2012 and prior years. Consequently, the cumulative effect of these adjustments was recorded during fiscal 2014, 2013, and 2012.

	Acquisitions
	Fiscal 2014 Acquisitions
	ServiceMesh Acquisition
	On November 15, 2013, CSC acquired ServiceMesh Inc. (SMI), a privately-held cloud services management company, headquartered in Santa Monica, California, with operations in the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom, for total purchase consideration of $282 million. The acquisition enhances CSC's ability to help its clients migrate their applications into cloud computing environments and to automate the deployment and management of enterprise applications and platforms across private, public and hybrid cloud environments.
	The purchase consideration included: 1) cash of $163 million paid at closing to and on behalf of the SMI shareholders, including $10 million paid to retire SMI's debt and 2) additional consideration of $119 million contingent on the achievement of contractually agreed revenue targets. The Company incurred transaction costs of $4 million associated with this acquisition, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses. The acquisition was funded from CSC's existing cash balances.
	The amount of contingent consideration was based on a contractually defined multiple of SMI’s revenues during a specified period ending January 31, 2014. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration payable using a probability-weighted approach, which at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2014 was preliminarily estimated to be $137 million, representing the maximum amount of contingent consideration payable. During the fourth quarter, the Company reduced the fair value of the contingent consideration payable and goodwill by $18 million, based on additional facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date but which were not known until the fourth quarter. These facts, had they been known, would have reduced the Company's original acquisition-date estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration to $119 million.
	After the expiration of the contractual period, the final amount of the contingent consideration payable was determined to be $98 million, which was paid during the fourth quarter. The difference of $21 million, between the revised fair value of contingent consideration liability of $119 million and the actual amount paid of $98 million, was primarily due to the deferral of revenues related to certain software license sales to periods beyond the specified earn-out measurement period. This difference of $21 million was recorded as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses during the fourth quarter.
	The results of SMI are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition, within its GIS segment. For the fiscal year ended March 28, 2014, SMI contributed revenues of $18 million, and operating income of $17 million, primarily due to the $21 million adjustment described above, partially offset by $4 million of amortization of the acquired intangibles.
	The preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the fourth quarter adjustments to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration, is presented below:
	(Amounts in millions)		Estimated Fair Value
	Accounts receivable and other current assets		$	3
	Deferred tax assets		31
	Intangible asset - developed technology		94
	Intangible assets - customer relationships and trade names		10
	Property and equipment and other non-current assets		2
	Deferred revenue and other current liabilities		(4		)
	Deferred tax liabilities		(38		)
	Total identifiable net assets acquired		98
	Goodwill		184
	Total purchase consideration		$	282
	As of the acquisition date, the fair value of trade receivables approximated book value and are considered fully recoverable. The Company’s purchase price allocation is preliminary, and is subject to the final net working capital adjustment and additional information related to the liabilities that existed as of the acquisition date.
	The amortizable lives associated with the intangible assets acquired are as follows:
	Description	Estimated Useful Lives (Years)
	Developed technology	9
	Customer relationships	3
	Trade names	6-Apr
	The goodwill recognized in the acquisition is attributable to the intellectual capital, the acquired assembled work force, and expected cost synergies, none of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. The goodwill arising from the acquisition was preliminarily allocated to the Company's reportable segments based on the relative fair value of the expected incremental cash flows that the acquisition is expected to provide to each reporting unit within the Company's reportable segments. Goodwill was allocated as follows: GBS: $28 million, GIS: $120 million, and NPS: $36 million. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
	In connection with the SMI acquisition, the Company granted to certain SMI employees restricted stock units with a grant-date fair value of $41 million. These awards generally vest over a three-year period, associated with the continuing employment of the SMI employees, beginning from the date of acquisition, and are recorded as compensation expense ratably over the three-year period.
	Infochimps Acquisition
	On August 5, 2013, CSC acquired Infochimps, Inc. (Infochimps), a privately-held company, in an all-cash transaction for $27 million. The acquisition complements CSC’s existing Big Data business by providing a flexible, scalable, platform-as-a-service offering. The purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition: $2 million to current and other long-term assets, $2 million to current and long-term liabilities, and $27 million to goodwill. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of trade receivables approximated book value and was considered fully recoverable. The goodwill is associated with the Company's GBS segment and is not tax-deductible.
	Pro forma financial information for the fiscal 2014 acquisitions was not presented as the effects of the acquisitions were neither individually nor in the aggregate material to CSC's consolidated results.
	Fiscal 2013 Acquisition
	In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, CSC acquired a privately-held entity for $35 million in an all-cash transaction. The entity was acquired to enhance CSC's capabilities in Big Data processing and analytics. The purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date: $4 million to current assets, $8 million to acquired intangible assets, $2 million to liabilities, and $25 million to goodwill. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of trade receivables approximated book value and was considered fully recoverable. The goodwill is associated with the NPS segment and is expected to be tax deductible. The pro forma financial information for this acquisition is not presented because the effects of this acquisition were not material to CSC’s consolidated results.
	Fiscal 2012 Acquisitions
	iSOFT Acquisition
	On July 29, 2011, CSC completed the acquisition of iSOFT Group Limited (iSOFT), an Australian public company. iSOFT was a global healthcare IT company providing advanced application solutions principally to secondary care providers across both the public and private sectors. The acquisition complemented and strengthened CSC’s software products, healthcare integration and services portfolio, and its healthcare research and development capabilities.
	CSC acquired all of the outstanding shares in iSOFT for cash consideration of $200 million and the assumed debt of $315 million, of which $298 million was repaid immediately after the acquisition. The acquisition was funded through CSC’s existing cash balances.
	Prior to the acquisition, the Company and iSOFT had a subcontracting agreement related to the development and delivery of software and IT services under the Company’s NHS contract. The agreement was effectively settled upon the completion of the acquisition. The Company determined that the subcontract was at market and no settlement gain or loss was recognized on the pre-existing relationship.
	The results of iSOFT were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition within its GBS segment. For the twelve months ended March 30, 2012, iSOFT contributed revenues of $123 million and an operating loss of $79 million, including the effect of purchase accounting adjustments, primarily relating to the amortization of intangibles. The operating loss was offset by currency gains of $18 million, resulting in an effective loss of $61 million before interest and taxes. The currency gains, which resulted from unhedged inter-company loans, are included in other income. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information of the Company as if the acquisition of iSOFT had occurred on April 3, 2010 for all periods presented:
			Twelve Months Ended March 30, 2012
	(Amounts in millions, except per-share data)		As Reported			Pro Forma
	Revenue		$	14,476		$	14,554
	Net loss attributable to CSC common shareholders		(4,242		)	(4,344		)
	Basic EPS		$	(27.37	)	$	(28.02	)
	Diluted EPS		(27.37		)	(28.02		)
	The pro forma financial information above is not indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisition had occurred on April 3, 2010, or that may be obtained in the future. No effect has been given to cost reductions or operating synergies relating to the integration of iSOFT in the Company’s operations. The information for the twelve months ended March 30, 2012 has been adjusted to exclude $37 million of goodwill impairment recorded by iSOFT in June 2011. Additionally, the twelve months ended March 30, 2012 information has been adjusted to exclude the transaction costs of $11 million.
	The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at acquisition date, including adjustments to the valuation of net assets acquired based on additional information that subsequently became available during fiscal 2012, are summarized as follows:
	(Amounts in millions)		Estimated Fair Value
	Cash and cash equivalents		$	26
	Trade and other receivables		114
	Other current assets		14
	Deferred tax assets		12
	Intangible assets		198

	Deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions, and other long-term liabilities		(59		)
	Total identifiable net assets acquired		(102		)
	Goodwill		302
	Total cash purchase price		$	200
	As of the acquisition date, the fair value of receivables approximated book value, which included billed and unbilled receivables and the historical allowance for uncollectible amounts of $10 million.
The components of the definite-lived intangible assets acquired and their respective estimated useful lives were as follows:
(Amounts in millions)		Estimated			Estimated Useful Lives
		Fair Value			(Years)
Customer relationships		$	92		13-Oct
Software		102			7-Feb
Trade names		4			1
Total intangible assets		$	198
The entire amount of goodwill is associated with the Company’s GBS segment, and is attributable to expected increases in the Company’s market capabilities, synergies from combining operations, and the value of the acquired workforce. Of the estimated total goodwill, $71 million was estimated to be tax deductible.
AppLabs Acquisition
On September 13, 2011, CSC acquired AppLabs Technologies Private Limited (AppLabs), a Company headquartered in India, which significantly enhances CSC’s capabilities in application testing services as well as shortening time-to-market. The AppLabs acquisition was to complement CSC’s expertise in financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, chemical, energy and natural resources and technology and consumer verticals.
CSC acquired all outstanding shares of AppLabs for cash consideration of $171 million, which was funded through CSC’s existing cash balances.
The results of AppLabs were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. For the twelve months ended March 30, 2012, AppLabs contributed revenues of $60 million and net income of $2 million, including the effect of purchase accounting adjustments, primarily relating to amortization of intangibles. The pro forma financial information for this acquisition was not presented as the effects of this acquisition were not material to CSC’s consolidated results.
The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, including adjustments to the valuation of net assets acquired based on additional information that subsequently became available during fiscal 2012, are summarized as follows:
(Amounts in millions)		Estimated Fair Value

(Amounts in millions)		Estimated			Estimated Useful Lives
		Fair Value			(Years)
Customer relationships		$	25		8-Feb
Software		1			5-Jan
Total intangible assets		$	26
The entire amount of goodwill is associated with the Company’s GBS segment and was attributable to expected increases in the Company’s market capabilities and the value of the acquired workforce. None of the goodwill was tax deductible.
Other Acquisitions
During fiscal 2012, CSC also acquired two other small privately-held entities for $28 million in all-cash transactions plus additional consideration of up to $2 million contingent on achievement of agreed revenue targets for future periods through the end of May 2014. The acquisitions enhanced CSC’s offerings in the healthcare IT and financial services industries.
The results of the acquired businesses were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates. The pro forma financial information for these acquisitions is not presented as these acquisitions, both individually and in the aggregate, were not material to CSC’s consolidated results.
The purchase prices were allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the respective acquisition dates: $8 million to current assets, $2 million to property and equipment, $7 million to intangible assets, $6 million to liabilities and $17 million to goodwill. Identified intangible assets consist primarily of customer related intangibles with useful lives of 4-10 years. Of the $17 million goodwill, $14 million is associated with the NPS segment and $3 million with the GBS segment. The $14 million goodwill associated with the NPS segment is expected to be tax deductible.

Discontinued operations	'
	Divestitures
	During fiscal 2014 and 2013, the Company divested certain non-core businesses as a part of its service portfolio optimization initiative to focus on the next-generation technology services. Certain of the divestitures met the criteria of discontinued operations presentation, and consequently their historical results have been presented as discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations.
	Discontinued Operations
	Fiscal 2014 Divestitures
	In September 2013, CSC committed to a plan to sell a small software business, a part of the GBS segment's Industry Software & Solutions group (GBS-IS&S). CSC is actively marketing this business for sale and expects the divestiture to be completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2015. As of March 28, 2014, the assets and liabilities of this business are classified as held-for-sale, and include: current assets of $25 million, property and equipment and other long-term assets of $31 million, current liabilities of $31 million, and long-term liabilities of $25 million. No goodwill has been allocated to this business.
	On July 19, 2013, CSC completed the sale of its base operations, aviation and ranges services business unit, the Applied Technology Division (ATD) within its NPS Segment, to a strategic investor for cash consideration of $178 million plus a net working capital adjustment receivable of $6 million. The ATD divestiture resulted in a pre-tax gain of $65 million, representing the excess of the sale price over the carrying value of the net assets of the divested business, less transaction costs of $5 million. The divested assets and liabilities included: current assets of $142 million (including cash of $7 million), goodwill of $41 million, other long-term assets of $11 million, current liabilities of $66 million, long-term liabilities of $35 million, and accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of noncontrolling interests, of $21 million.
	On May 21, 2013, CSC completed the divestiture of its flood insurance-related business process outsourcing practice (flood insurance BPO), within the GBS segment, to a financial investor for cash consideration of $43 million plus a net working capital adjustment receivable of $4 million. The divestiture resulted in a pre-tax gain of $25 million, representing the excess of the net proceeds over the carrying value of the net assets of the divested business and the related transaction costs. The divested assets and liabilities included: current assets of $9 million, goodwill of $12 million, $2 million of other long-lived assets, and current liabilities of $1 million. During the fourth quarter, the Company received cash of $3 million, representing the final net working capital adjustment, and reduced the gain on disposal by $1 million.
	Fiscal 2013 Divestitures
	During fiscal 2013, CSC completed the sales of three businesses within its GBS Segment: the U.S.-based credit services business, an enterprise systems integration business with operations in Malaysia and Singapore, and the Italian consulting and system integration business.
	For the sale of its U.S.-based credit services business, the Company received cash proceeds of $1,003 million, of which $2 million was received in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 for a subsequent net working capital adjustment. For the sale of its enterprise system integration business, the Company received $90 million in cash and an additional $13 million for subsequent working capital adjustments. For the disposal of its Italian consulting and system integration business, the Company paid $35 million (plus $8 million of cash included in the divested entity's net assets) and received $6 million from the buyer, during the second quarter of fiscal 2014, for a net working capital adjustment.
	These three divestitures resulted in a total pre-tax gain of $769 million (after-tax gain of $417 million), representing the excess of the net proceeds over the carrying value of the net assets of the divested businesses and transaction costs of $11 million. The fiscal 2013 divested assets and liabilities included current assets of $129 million, property and equipment and other long-lived assets of $11 million, goodwill of $241 million, and liabilities of $85 million.
	During fiscal 2012, CSC recorded a pre-tax loss from discontinued operations of $2 million, representing purchase price adjustments related to a fiscal 2011 divestiture. In fiscal 2012, CSC also recorded a $3 million adjustment to the taxes on gain on discontinued operations recorded in fiscal 2011. The adjustment reflects a change in the estimated tax provision made in fiscal 2011.
	Following is the summary of the results of the discontinued operations:
		Twelve Months Ended
	(Amounts in millions)	March 28, 2014			March 29, 2013		March 30, 2012
	Operations
	Revenue	$	235		$	1,193	$	1,401
	(Loss) income from discontinued operations, before taxes	(1		)	115		140
	Tax expense (benefit)	4			51		(25		)
	Net (loss) income from discontinued operations	(5		)	64		165
	Disposal
	Gain (loss) on disposition	$	89		$	769	$	(2	)
	Tax expense (benefit)	15			352		(3		)
	Gain on disposition, net of taxes	74			417		1
	Income from discontinued operations, net of taxes	$	69		$	481	$	166
	The tax expense on the gain on sale of ATD was minimal primarily due to the difference between the book and tax basis of the assets sold. The primary difference between the book and tax gains on the sale of the flood insurance BPO business was the write-off of approximately $12 million of goodwill, the majority of which was not deductible for tax purposes.
	In connection with the sale of the U.S.-based credit services business, the primary difference between the book and tax gain was the write-off of approximately $241 million of goodwill, a majority of which was not deductible for tax purposes. The income tax expense recorded included an allocation of a deferred tax charge related to such goodwill. In addition, a significant tax benefit was realized on the divestment of the Italian consulting and system integration business. The gain from the sale of the enterprise systems integration business with operations in Malaysia and Singapore was exempt from income tax.
	For fiscal 2012, discontinued operations reflects a tax benefit of approximately $82 million due to the change in tax status of one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries. This change in tax status resulted in a deemed liquidation for U.S. tax purposes and triggered various deductions which resulted in an income tax benefit. This benefit was allocable to discontinued operations as such foreign subsidiary was disposed of during the current fiscal year.
	Other Divestitures
	During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company sold Paxus, its Australian IT staffing business unit, included within the Company's GBS Segment. This divestiture did not qualify to be presented as discontinued operations due to CSC's significant continuing business relationship with the divested entity. The total consideration for this divestiture was $79 million, of which $63 million was received in cash and $16 million was recorded as a receivable. During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, CSC collected cash of $10 million and offset the remaining $6 million against a current payable due to the buyer to settle this consideration receivable. The sale of Paxus resulted in a pre-tax gain of $38 million, representing the excess of the proceeds over the carrying value of the net assets divested, net of transaction costs of $3 million. The divested assets and liabilities included current assets of $41 million, property and equipment and other long-lived assets of $2 million, and liabilities of $5 million. The Company recognized no tax expense or benefit on the gain on sale because it had sufficient capital losses in its Australian business unit to completely offset the capital gain.

	The Company's money market funds, money market deposit accounts and time deposits are included in cash and cash equivalents; short-term investments and foreign currency derivative assets are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets; interest rate swap derivative assets are included in other assets; foreign currency derivative liabilities are included in accrued expenses; and interest rate swap derivative liabilities are included in other long-term liabilities. Gains and losses from changes in the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities are included in earnings and reported in other (income) expense. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.
	Derivative assets and liabilities include foreign currency forward and option contracts and interest rate swap contracts. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts represents the estimated amount required to settle the contracts using current market exchange rates, and is based on the year-end foreign currency exchange rates and forward points. The fair value of currency options is estimated based on valuation models that use the original strike price, movement and volatility in foreign currency exchange rates, and length of time to expiration as inputs. The fair value of interest rate swaps is estimated based on valuation models that use interest rate yield curves as inputs. The inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company's derivatives are classified as Level 2.
	Fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis
	Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill, tangible assets, intangible assets and other contract related long-lived assets. Such assets are reviewed quarterly for impairment indicators. If a triggering event has occurred, the assets are remeasured when the estimated fair value of the corresponding asset or asset group is less than the carrying value. The fair value measurements, in such instances, are based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). There were no significant impairments recorded during the fiscal years ended March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013.
	Financial Instruments not measured at fair value
	The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments with short-term maturities are deemed to approximate their market values. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt, excluding capital leases, was $1,874 million and $2,119 million and the estimated fair value was $2,057 million and $2,324 million as of March 28, 2014, and March 29, 2013, respectively. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current interest rates offered to the Company for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities and are classified as Level 2.
	The primary financial instruments other than derivatives (see Note 8) that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are accounts receivable. The Company’s customer base includes Fortune 500 companies, the U.S. federal and other governments and other significant, well-known companies operating in North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim. Credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is minimized because of the nature and diversification of the Company’s customer base. Furthermore, the Company continuously reviews its accounts receivables and records provisions for doubtful accounts as needed.
	The Company’s credit risk is also affected by customers in bankruptcy proceedings; however, because most of these proceedings involve business reorganizations rather than liquidations and the nature of the Company’s services are often considered essential to the operational continuity of these customers, the Company is generally able to avoid or mitigate significant adverse financial impact in these cases. As of March 28, 2014, the Company had $13 million of accounts receivable, $8 million of related allowance for doubtful accounts, $1 million of other assets, and $4 million of accounts payable with customers involved in bankruptcy proceedings.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]	'
Foreign Currency Derivative Instruments	'
	Derivative Instruments
	The Company is exposed to market risks associated with movements in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates can impact the Company's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, whereas changes in benchmark interest rates can impact the fair value of the Company's term notes. The Company uses derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of these market risks, not for trading or any speculative purpose.
	Foreign Currency Derivatives
	As a global organization, the Company enters into contracts denominated in foreign currencies. By generally matching revenues, costs and borrowings to the same currency, the Company is able to substantially mitigate foreign currency risk to earnings. In other instances, the Company manages the exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies by using short-term option contracts to economically hedge certain revenues denominated in non-functional currencies, and short-term foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, including intercompany accounts and loans. For accounting purposes, these foreign currency option and forward contracts are not designated as hedges, as defined under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and all changes in their fair value are reported in current period earnings within the other income (expense) line of the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
	The notional amount of the foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013 was $816 million and $993 million, respectively. The notional amount of option contracts outstanding as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013 was $81 million and $744 million, respectively.
	The estimated fair values of the foreign currency derivative assets and liabilities were $2 million and $4 million, respectively, as of March 28, 2014, and $5 million and $11 million, respectively, as of March 29, 2013 (see Note 7).
	The Company is subject to counterparty credit risks in connection with its foreign currency derivative instruments. To mitigate this risk, the Company enters into forward and option contracts with several financial institutions and regularly reviews its credit exposure and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. As of March 28, 2014, there were four counterparties with concentration of credit risk, and the maximum amount of loss, based on gross fair value of the foreign currency derivative instruments, that the Company could incur was $1 million.
	It is the Company's policy to not offset derivative assets and liabilities despite the existence of enforceable master netting arrangements with some of its counterparties. The following table provides information about the potential effect of such netting arrangements on the Company's derivative instruments:
			Fair Value as of
			March 28, 2014				March 29, 2013
	(Amounts in millions)		Assets		Liabilities		Assets		Liabilities
	Gross amount of derivative instruments recognized in consolidated balance sheets		$	2	$	4	$	5	$	11
	Gross amounts not offset in the consolidated balance sheets (1)		—		—		2		2
	Net amount		$	2	$	4	$	3	$	9
	-1	These amounts represent the fair value of derivative instruments subject to enforceable master netting arrangements that the Company has elected to not offset. The Company's derivative contracts do not require it to hold or post financial collateral.
	Interest Rate Swaps
	Pursuant to its interest rate and risk management strategy, during the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company entered into multiple interest rate swap transactions to hedge the fair value of $275 million of the Company's 4.45% term notes, due 2022, which effectively converted the debt into floating interest rate debt.
	For accounting purposes, these interest rate swap transactions were designated as fair value hedges and qualified for short-cut method of hedge accounting, as defined under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” Accordingly, changes in the fair values of the interest rate swaps were reported in earnings and fully offset changes in the fair value of the underlying debt (see Note 13); therefore, no net gain or loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The cash flows associated with the interest rate swaps are reported in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
	The estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps was $3 million as of March 28, 2014, and this amount is reported as a derivative asset included within the other assets line on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 7). The change in fair value of interest rate swaps was $3 million for the year ended March 28, 2014.
	The Company is subject to counterparty credit risk in connection with its interest rate swap derivative instruments. As of March 28, 2014, there were three counterparties with concentration of risk and the maximum amount of loss that the Company could incur was $4 million.

The intangible assets impacted included primarily, software and capitalized transition costs. The Company used the income approach technique to fair value the assets. The unobservable inputs used were based on Company specific information and included, primarily, estimates of revenue and cost growth rates, profit margins and discount rates. The impairment was recorded as a part of cost of services.

	Goodwill
	Effective at the beginning of fiscal year 2014, the Company began operating under its new reportable segments: GBS, GIS and NPS (see Note 19). The following tables summarize the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by segment, for the years ended March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively, applying the segment changes retroactively to the beginning of fiscal year 2012.

	Concurrent with the change in its reportable segments, the Company reassigned goodwill among certain of its reporting units based on their relative fair values. As a result of this reassignment, $47 million of goodwill was allocated from the former MSS segment to the new GBS segment. The reassignment of goodwill is reflected in the goodwill balances as of March 29, 2013.
	The fiscal 2014 additions to goodwill of $211 million are due to the third quarter acquisition of ServiceMesh, which resulted in allocation of goodwill to all three reportable segments, and the second quarter GBS acquisition of InfoChimps (see Note 3). The reductions in goodwill are due to the first quarter divestiture of GBS' flood insurance BPO business and the second quarter divestiture of NPS' ATD business (see Note 4). No goodwill was allocated to the GBS software business that was classified as discontinued operations in the second quarter (see Note 4). The foreign currency translation amount reflects the impact of currency movements on non-U.S. dollar-denominated goodwill balances.
	The fiscal 2013 addition of $25 million relates to an acquisition in the NPS segment (see Note 3). The reduction of $241 million relates to the divestiture of a business within the GBS segment (see Note 4).
	Goodwill Impairment Analyses
	As described in Note 1, the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Following is a description of the goodwill impairment analyses for each of the fiscal years.
	Fiscal 2014
	As of the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test for all reporting units due to the segment changes described above. Based on the results of the first step of the impairment test, the Company concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit significantly exceeded its carrying value and therefore the second step of the goodwill impairment test was not required.
	Due to the disposal of the flood insurance BPO business later in the first quarter (see Note 4), the Company performed an interim assessment to determine whether the remaining goodwill of the GBS-IS&S reporting unit, which contained the divested business, might be impaired. The Company determined that no impairment existed.
	In connection with the fiscal 2014 annual impairment assessment, the Company performed a qualitative assessment for each reporting unit (Step 0). Based on these qualitative assessments, the Company determined that none of its reporting units met the "more-likely-than-not" threshold that would require the Company to perform the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. Accordingly, the Company did not perform any further analysis.
	In addition, in connection with the disposal of ATD during the second quarter (see Note 4), the Company performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test for the remaining business of the NPS reporting unit as of the date of the disposal. The fair value of the remaining NPS reporting unit significantly exceeded its carrying value, and the second step of the goodwill impairment test was not required.
	At the end of fiscal year 2014, the Company assessed whether there were events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below their carrying amounts and require an interim goodwill impairment test. The Company determined that there have been no events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below their carrying amounts, and, as a result, it was unnecessary to perform an interim impairment test as of March 28, 2014.
	Any adverse changes in the business climate or in CSC's operating results could cause to perform additional impairment analyses of goodwill prior to the next annual test, which may result in impairment charges.
	Fiscal 2013
	In connection with the fiscal 2013 annual impairment assessment, the Company chose to bypass the initial qualitative assessment and proceeded directly to the first step of the impairment test for all reporting units, and concluded that no impairment had occurred. The fair values of all of CSC's reporting units were significantly in excess of their carrying values.
	Due to the divestiture of CSC's credit services business in the third quarter of fiscal 2013, which caused the allocation of $241 million of goodwill from the GBS-IS&S reporting unit to that disposed business, the Company assessed the remaining goodwill related to GBS-IS&S for potential impairment. The Company performed the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test and concluded that the remaining goodwill related to GBS-IS&S, after allocation of goodwill to the divested business, was not impaired.
	At the end of fiscal year 2013, the Company assessed whether there were events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below their carrying amounts. There were no such indicators for any of the reporting units, and as a result, it was unnecessary to perform an interim impairment test.
	Fiscal 2012
	During the fiscal 2012 annual goodwill impairment assessment, the Company concluded that fair value was below carrying value for three reporting units: GIS, GBS-Consulting and GBS IS&S. Management believed that the decline in the estimated fair values of these reporting units during the second quarter was a result of a number of factors, including: the significant decline in the Company’s overall stock price during the first six months of fiscal 2012; an overall decline in the broader stock market which reduced performance metric multiples at comparable public companies; uncertainty caused by concerns about the ongoing SEC investigation into reported errors and irregularities; concerns about the Company’s growth prospects in light of operational issues at its GIS reporting unit; uncertainty over the continuation of the Company’s NHS contract in light of comments made by government officials in the U.K.; government budget pressures on customers worldwide, and lower than forecast operating performance. Therefore, the Company conducted step two of the goodwill impairment test, which is discussed further below.
	During the process of conducting the second step of the annual goodwill impairment tests, the Company identified significant previously unrecognized intangible assets, primarily relating to customer relationships and technology. The unrecognized intangible assets, estimated at approximately $1.3 billion, were predominantly attributable to unrecognized customer relationship assets in the GIS reporting unit and were driven by the Company’s high customer retention rates in this business. The combination of these previously unrecognized intangible assets, other unrecognized fair value changes to the carrying values of other assets, and lower reporting unit fair values calculated in step one, resulted in an implied fair value of goodwill substantially below the carrying value of goodwill for the GIS, GBS-Consulting and GBS-IS&S reporting units. At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company had not completed the impairment tests and therefore, recorded its best estimate of the goodwill impairment charge of $2,685 million, of which $2,074 million related to the GIS reporting unit, $453 million related to the GBS-Consulting reporting unit, and $158 million related to the GBS-IS&S reporting unit.
	The Company completed all analyses related to its annual and second quarter interim goodwill impairment tests during the third quarter and reduced the impairment loss recorded in the second quarter by $3 million. The entire adjustment related to the GBS-IS&S reporting unit, and resulted from finalizing tax estimates and the fair values of customer-related and technology intangible assets. Thus, the net goodwill impairment loss recorded in fiscal 2012 was $2,682 million, with a $3 million reduction in the impairment loss recorded in the third quarter.
	At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company determined that sufficient indicators existed to require performance of an additional interim goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2011. These indicators included: a further significant and sustained decline in CSC’s stock price which resulted in a market capitalization, adjusted for control premium, decreasing to an amount less than book value and remaining there for some time; further decreases in the performance metric multiples of comparable public companies, driving the market approach valuations lower; and additional evidence of certain reporting units’ performance which fell short of forecasts used in the annual market-based and income-based tests. In this interim goodwill impairment test, the GBS-Consulting reporting unit failed step one of the two-step test.
	At the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2013, CSC determined that the GBS-IS&S reporting unit had several indicators, including, the loss of a significant customer, failure to win major bids for new business, developments on the NHS contract and reduction in forecasted earnings to trigger an interim impairment test. There were no triggering events for the remaining reporting units with goodwill.
	The Company performed the first step of the two-step test and concluded that GBS-IS&S's weighted average fair value was lower that its carrying value. The ensuing step two portion of the goodwill impairment analysis resulted in the Company recording an additional goodwill impairment charge of $63 million, due to the impact of the fair value of tangible assets and the unrecognized intangible assets, primarily customer relationship and technology assets.
	The Company tested its long-lived assets for impairment in conjunction with the fiscal 2012 annual and the fiscal 2012 second and third quarter interim goodwill impairment tests and concluded that these assets were not impaired.
	At the end of the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company assessed whether there were events or change in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below their carrying amounts. There were no such indicators for any of the reporting units with goodwill, and therefore, an interim goodwill test was not required.

	Effective tax rate		31.8	%		(10.9	)%		(2.1	)%
	In fiscal 2014, the ETR was primarily driven by:
	•	The Company recorded a tax expense of $10 million related to the previous restructuring of an operating subsidiary. This expense increased the ETR by 1.1%.
	•	A net increase in uncertain tax positions across various jurisdictions of $36 million which increased the ETR by 4.1%. The primary drivers of this increase in tax expense were related to various tax issues including transfer pricing and foreign exchange losses.
	•	A decrease in the valuation allowance determined on a tax jurisdictional basis due to a shift in the global mix of income which decreased tax expense and the ETR by $35 million and 3.8%, respectively
	•	Local income on investment recoveries in certain jurisdictions (i) decreased the valuation allowance and the ETR by $90.6 million and 10.0%, respectively, and (ii) increased the foreign rate differential and ETR by $90.6 million and by 10.0%, respectively.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized and adjusts the valuation allowance accordingly. In determining whether the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, taxable income in prior carryback years, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. The valuation allowance decreased by $245 million in fiscal year 2014. This change is primarily due to the following:
•	A decrease in the valuation allowances in the U.K. and Denmark, primarily related to current year income and pension plan modifications;
•	A decrease in the valuation allowance in Luxembourg due to significant gains on investments;
•	A decrease in the valuation allowance for state credits and net operating losses.
Significant management judgment is required in determining the Company's provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance has been recorded against deferred tax assets of approximately $1,053 million as of March 28, 2014 due to uncertainties related to the ability to utilize these assets. The valuation allowance is based on historical earnings, estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction and the period over which the deferred tax assets will be recoverable. Valuation allowances are evaluated periodically and will be subject to change in each future reporting period as a result of changes in various factors. Based on recent earnings in certain jurisdictions there is a reasonable possibility that, within the next year, sufficient positive evidence may become available to reach a conclusion that a portion of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. As such, the Company may release a portion of its valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets within the next 12 months. This release would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period such release is recorded. Any such adjustment could materially impact the Company's financial position and results of operations.
The Company has available foreign net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of $3,417 million and $3,661 million, federal NOL carryforwards of $73 million and $5 million, and state NOL carryforwards of $818 million and $782 million as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively. The Company has foreign capital loss carryforwards of $80 million and $45 million as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively. The Company also has state credit carryforwards of $53 million and $67 million and state capital loss carryforwards of $428 million and $411 million as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively. The foreign NOL carryforwards as of March 28, 2014 can be carried over indefinitely, except for $60 million which expire at various dates through 2023. The federal NOL carryforwards as of March 28, 2014 expire at various dates through 2034. The state NOL and credit carryforwards as of March 28, 2014 expire at various dates through 2033. The state capital loss carryforwards as of March 29, 2013 expire in 2018.
The Company is currently the beneficiary of tax holiday incentives in India, which expire in various fiscal years through 2026. As a result of the India tax holiday incentives, the Company’s tax expense was reduced by approximately $3 million, $3 million, and $1 million, during fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. The per share effects were $0.02, $0.02, and $0.01, for fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.
In general, it is the practice and intention of the Company to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of March 28, 2014, the Company has not made a provision for U.S. income tax or additional foreign withholding taxes with respect to accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries where the foreign investment of such earnings is essentially permanent in duration. Generally, such amounts would become subject to U.S. taxation upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. The cumulative undistributed positive earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries were approximately $3,110 million as of March 28, 2014. It is not practicable to estimate the tax cost of repatriating the cumulative undistributed taxable earnings of these foreign subsidiaries to the United States.
In May 2013, Finance Bill 2013 received the assent of the President of India and has been enacted as the Finance Act 2013. There are various provisions in the Finance Act, including a tax on the buy-back of shares and an increase in the dividend distribution tax from 16.22% to 16.99%. The Company uses the lower undistributed tax rate to measure deferred taxes on inside basis differences, including undistributed earnings, of our India operations as these earnings are permanently reinvested. While the Company has no plans to do so, events may occur in the future that could effectively force management to change its intent not to repatriate our India earnings. If the Company changes its intent and repatriates such earnings, a dividend distribution tax will be incurred for distributions from India. These additional taxes will be recorded as tax expense in the period in which the dividend is declared.
The Company accounts for income tax uncertainties in accordance with ASC 740-10, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. ASC 740 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of liabilities for uncertain tax positions, interest and penalties.
As of March 28, 2014, the Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions was $250 million, including interest of $27 million, penalties of $19 million, and net of tax attributes of $47 million. As of March 29, 2013, the Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions was $262 million, including interest of $38 million, penalties of $17 million, and net of tax attributes of $32 million.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s uncertain tax positions (excluding interest and penalties and related tax attributes):

The Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions at March 28, 2014, March 29, 2013, and March 30, 2012, includes $161 million, $148 million, and $155 million, respectively, related to amounts that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate (excluding related interest and penalties).
The Company recognizes interest accrued related to uncertain tax positions and penalties as a component of income tax expense. During the year ended March 28, 2014, the Company had a net reduction in interest of $11 million ($7 million net of tax) and accrued penalties of $2 million, and as of March 28, 2014, has recognized a liability for interest of $27 million ($21 million net of tax) and penalties of $19 million. During the year ended March 29, 2013, the Company accrued interest expense of $7 million ($5 million net of tax) and accrued penalties of $2 million, and as of March 29, 2013, recognized a liability for interest of $38 million ($28 million net of tax) and penalties of $17 million. During the year ended March 30, 2012, the Company had a net reduction of interest of $56 million ($36 million net of tax) and had a net reduction of penalties of $14 million, and as of March 30, 2012, recognized a liability for interest of $31 million ($23 million net of tax) and penalties of $15 million.
Tax Examination Status:
The Company is currently under examination in several tax jurisdictions. A summary of the tax years that remain subject to examination in certain of the Company’s major tax jurisdictions are:
Jurisdiction:		Tax Years that Remain Subject to Examination
		(Fiscal Year Ending):
United States – Federal		2008 and forward
United States – Various States		2001 and forward
Australia		2010 and forward
Canada		2008 and forward
Denmark		2009 and forward
France		2009 and forward
Germany		2006 and forward
India		2008 and forward
United Kingdom		2010 and forward
It is reasonably possible that during the next twelve months the Company's liability for uncertain tax positions may change by a significant amount. The IRS is examining the Company's federal income tax returns for fiscal years 2008 through 2010. During fiscal 2014, the IRS indicated they need additional time to complete the examination. Therefore, the Company now expects to reach a resolution no earlier than fiscal year 2016. The significant items subject to examination primarily relate to foreign exchange losses and other US international tax issues. In addition, the Company may settle certain other tax examinations, have lapses in statutes limitations, or voluntarily settle income tax positions in negotiated settlements for different amounts than the Company has accrued as uncertain tax positions. The Company may need to accrue and ultimately pay additional amounts for tax positions that previously met a more likely than not standard if such positions are not upheld. Conversely, the Company could settle positions with the tax authorities for amounts lower than those that have been accrued or extinguish a position though payment. The Company believes the outcomes which are reasonably possible within the next twelve months may result in a reduction in liability for uncertain tax positions of up to $22 million excluding interest and penalties.

	The following is a summary of the Company's debt as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013:
	(Amounts in millions)		March 28, 2014		March 29, 2013
	4.45% term notes, due September 2022		$	434	$	349

	Less: short term debt and current maturities of long term debt		681		234
	Total long-term debt		$	2,207	$	2,498
	Term note exchanges
	During fiscal 2014, the Company entered into multiple term-note exchange agreements to exchange an aggregate of $82 million of its 6.50% term notes, due 2018, for an aggregate of $97 million original principal amount of its 4.45% term notes, due 2022. All the term note exchanges were accounted for as debt modifications and as a result, the difference between the original face value of term notes exchanged was accounted for as additional debt discount, which along with the existing unamortized discount and deferred financing costs, will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the 4.45% term notes, using the effective interest method.
	Interest rate swaps
	As disclosed in Note 8, during the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company entered into multiple interest rate swap transactions to hedge the fair value of $275 million of its 4.45% term notes, due 2022, which effectively converted the debt into floating interest rate debt. Under the terms of the swap transactions, the Company will receive semi-annual interest payments at the coupon rate of 4.45% and will pay variable interest based upon the LIBOR rate, plus a weighted average contractual margin. The Company designated these interest rate swaps as fair value hedges and is accounting for them in accordance with the short-cut method under ASC Topic 815 (See Note 8). The change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps from inception to March 28, 2014 was $3 million. The carrying value of the 4.45% term notes due 2022, was increased by this amount.
	Term loans
	During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company's subsidiary, Computer Sciences Holdings (UK) Ltd., entered into a £250 million or $413 million (at the March 29, 2014 exchange rates; $408 million on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow due to the impact of movement in foreign currency exchange rates) short-term note payable, due December 2014, with a financial institution. The note bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus a margin of 17 basis points (bps) and is payable quarterly. The note is guaranteed by the Company, and financial covenants associated with the note are the same as those associated with the Company's $2.5 billion revolving credit facility, as described below.
	During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company repaid its $250 million term loan, due September 2016, from its cash balances on hand. The Company recorded $1 million as additional interest expense to write-off previously deferred debt issuances expenses associated with this term loan.
	Note payable of a consolidated subsidiary
	During fiscal 2013, the Company had entered into a credit agreement with a bank to sell the Company's interest in a five-year note receivable, due 2018, issued by one of its wholly-owned subsidiary, for a cash consideration of £41 million ($62 million as of March 29, 2013). During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary amended its credit agreement with the bank to convert the principal amount of its note payable from British pounds to U.S. dollars and to be indexed to lower cost U.S. LIBOR rates. The outstanding principal amount of £41 million was thereby converted to $68 million based upon the conversion rate at the time. The original draw in British pounds was to hedge other British Pounds denominated instruments which have since been unwound. There were no other changes to the credit agreement.
	Revolving credit facility
	During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company amended its unsecured $1.5 billion revolving credit facility by expanding its borrowing capacity to $2.5 billion and extending its maturity to January 15, 2019. The terms of the amended $2.5 billion facility allow for borrowings by both CSC and certain of its international subsidiaries within a $2.0 billion sub-limit for borrowings denominated in U.S. dollar, euros and pound sterling, and a $0.5 billion sub-limit for borrowings denominated in U.S. dollar, euros, Pounds sterling, Japanese yen, Australian dollar and Singapore dollar. The amended credit facility also provides, on an uncommitted basis, that the aggregate amount of the facility may be increased to up to $3 billion. The amended facility has a lower interest margin on drawn amounts and provides for lower commitment fees on undrawn amounts than the prior credit facility. The Company incurred costs of $4 million related to amendment and expansion of the credit facility. These costs have been deferred and will be amortized over the term of the facility. There were no borrowings outstanding against the $2.5 billion and $1.5 billion credit facilities, as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively.
	The financial covenants associated with both the £250 million short-term term loan and the $2.5 billion credit facility require the Company to: (1) maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization adjusted for other non-cash charges as defined by the credit agreement (EBITDA), to consolidated interest expense for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such period not to be less than 3.00 to 1.00; and (2) not permit at the end of any quarterly financial reporting period the ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date, to exceed 3.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013.
	Commercial paper
	The Company typically issues commercial paper with average maturities of one to three months. The commercial paper is secured by the revolving credit facility discussed above. As of both March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, the Company had no borrowings outstanding against commercial paper. Subsequent to end of fiscal 2014, the Company suspended its commercial paper program.
	Capital lease liabilities
	Capitalized lease liabilities represent obligations due under capital leases for the use of computers and other equipment. The gross amount of assets recorded under capital leases was $1,208 million with accumulated amortization of $609 million, as of March 28, 2014, and $1,095 million with accumulated amortization of $465 million, as of March 29, 2013.
	Borrowings for assets acquired under long-term financing
	Certain asset purchases under outsourcing contracts were financed by borrowings from customers. These borrowings carry a rate of interest from 0.0% to 9.5% and will mature over the next five years. Gross amounts of assets purchased under long-term financings included $88 million and $69 million in property and equipment, $76 million and $54 million in software, $93 million and $90 million in outsourcing contract costs and $10 million and $10 million in other intangible assets as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively.
	Other borrowings
	Foreign subsidiaries of the Company had $31 million borrowings outstanding as of March 28, 2014, and $0 million of borrowings outstanding as of March 29, 2013, under uncommitted lines of credit with certain foreign banks. CSC has provided parent guarantees for these short-term lines of credit which carry no commitment fees or significant covenants. In addition, the Company had $5 million of other borrowings outstanding as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively, consisting of other interest bearing debt and notes payable.
	Expected maturities of long-term debt, including borrowings for asset financing but excluding future minimum capital lease payments, for years subsequent to March 28, 2014, are as follows:
	Fiscal Year	Amount (in millions)
	2015	$	503

Pension And Other Benefit Plans [Abstract]	'
Pension and other benefit plans	'
	Pension and Other Benefit Plans
	The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans for the benefit of eligible employees. The defined benefit plans comprise primarily pension plans and post-retirement medical benefit plans. The defined contribution plans include the Company's deferred compensation plan for executives and non-employee directors.
	Defined Benefit Pension Plans
	U.S. Plans
	Contributory, defined benefit pension plans have been generally available to U.S. employees. However, the largest U.S. defined benefit pension plan was frozen for most participants in fiscal 2010. In addition, the Company has two supplemental executive retirement plans (SERP), which are non-qualified, non-contributory pension plans. The Company's funding policy is to make contributions to the Plans in amounts, as determined by an independent actuary, that meets the minimum requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and ERISA, that may exceed such minimum requirements if determined to be beneficial to the Company for cost recoverability, tax, or other regulatory reasons.
	On July 19, 2013, CSC completed the sale of ATD (see Note 4), which had a pension and a retiree medical plan. The plans were remeasured as of the date of the sale, which resulted in settlement cost of $4 million that was recorded as part of the gain on sale of ATD, and a reduction to long-term liabilities of $28 million. The net periodic pension cost related to the divested plans, not including any settlement gain or loss, for the years ended March 28, 2014, March 29, 2013, and March 30, 2012 was $4 million, $8 million, and $7 million respectively.
	On March 26, 2013, the Company made an additional discretionary cash contribution of $80 million to various U.S. pension plans.
	On December 31, 2012, the Company made a discretionary cash contribution of $400 million to its largest U.S. pension plan resulting in a remeasurement of the plan. The effects of this remeasurement were recorded during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and resulted in a reduction of net periodic pension cost of $8 million for fiscal 2013, along with additional plan liabilities of $379 million due to using a new discount rate of 4.0%, a decrease from the previous rate of 4.85%.
	Non-US Plans
	Eligible non-U.S. employees are enrolled in defined benefit pension plans in their country of domicile. The Contributory defined benefit pension plan in the U.K. represent the largest plan outside of the U.S. Effective July 1, 2010, the accrual of future benefits was discontinued for certain U.K. pension plans. In addition, healthcare, dental and life insurance benefits are also provided to certain non-U.S. employees. A significant number of employees outside the U.S. are covered by government sponsored programs at no direct cost to the Company other than related payroll taxes.
	On December 20, 2013, two U.K. pension plans were remeasured due to a plan amendment arising from a change in the index used to determine the level of pension increases, from the Retail Prices Index (RPI) to the Consumer Prices Index (CPI). A weighted average discount rate of 4.65% was used to remeasure the plans; an increase from 4.31% in the prior fiscal year. As a result of the remeasurement, the pension benefit obligation decreased by $443 million and the average funded status was 108%.
	In connection with the fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 restructuring plans (see Note 20), the Company accrued additional contractual termination benefits, for certain employees participating in a U.K. pension plan, which are reflected in the projected benefit obligation and recognized as expense in the net periodic pension cost. The Company accrued net benefits of $17 million, $20 million, and $19 million, for fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The fiscal 2013 amount of $20 million was net of a $3 million reduction to the fiscal 2012 estimated contractual benefits to be paid.
	During fiscal 2014, a pension plan in Switzerland recognized a settlement loss of $6 million as a result of restructuring activities. The plan was remeasured on September 30, 2013 using a discount rate of 2.30%, an increase from 2.05% in the prior fiscal year, which resulted in a reduction to the pension benefit obligation of $43 million, improving the plan's funded status.
	On March 26, 2013, the Company made a discretionary cash contribution of $20 million to its largest Canadian pension plan.
	Effective July 1, 2012 a Norway pension plan was amended to change the index used to benchmark pension payment increases. The plan was remeasured at July 1, 2012 resulting in a reduction to the projected benefit obligation of $28 million, improving the plan's funded status. The plan's fiscal 2013 expense was also remeasured for the remaining nine months of the fiscal year using a discount rate of 4.0%.

Defined Benefit Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company provides subsidized healthcare and life insurance retirement benefits for certain U.S. employees and retirees, generally for those employed prior to August 1992. In response to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA), a number of changes were made to the underlying healthcare coverage offered to certain U.S. retirees. In conjunction with those changes, the Company established limits on the level of employer subsidy it will provide to some retirees. Several plans were amended and the impact of these changes was first reflected on April 1, 2011. In 2012, several retiree medical plans were further amended to allow Medicare Part D subsidies from 2012 and beyond to be collected by the healthcare provider and was reflected on March 30, 2012.

As of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, the Company had no postretirement healthcare plan assets outside the U.S. Benefits paid include amounts paid directly from plan assets and amounts paid by the Company.
The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s postretirement benefit obligations as of March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013:
	March 28, 2014			March 29, 2013
Discount rate	4.3	%		4.1	%
The assumed healthcare cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 8.8% for fiscal 2015, declining to 4.9% for 2024 and subsequent years for all retirees. Assumed healthcare cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the healthcare plans. A one-percentage point change in the assumed healthcare cost trend rates would have had the following effect:

Other comprehensive (gain) loss related to unamortized postretirement benefit plan costs for the years ended March 28, 2014, March 29, 2013, and March 30, 2012 was $(23) million (net of taxes of $13 million), $(13) million (net of taxes of $9 million), and $22 million (net of taxes of $12 million), respectively.
The estimated net transitional obligation, prior service gain and actuarial loss for other postretirement benefit plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $0 million, $(2) million and $7 million, respectively.
The weighted-averages of the assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost were as follows.
Fiscal Year End		2014			2013			2012
Discount or settlement rates		4.1	%		4.5	%		5.3	%
Expected long-term rates of return on assets		5.9	%		6.5	%		7.2	%

No significant cash flow is expected for other post-retirement benefit plans outside the U.S.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets
U.S. pension plan and OPEB plan assets are held in a trust that includes both separate accounts and commingled funds. Non-U.S. assets are subject to country specific regulations and invest primarily in commingled funds. The U.S. pension trust and the U.K. pension plans account for 91% of the total pension plan assets.
The Company’s investment goals and risk management strategy for plan assets takes into account a number of factors, including the time horizon of the pension plans’ obligations. Plan assets are invested in various asset classes that are expected to produce a sufficient level of diversification and a reasonable amount of investment return over the long term. Sufficient liquidity is maintained to meet benefit obligations as they become due. Third party investment managers are employed to invest assets in both passively-indexed and actively-managed strategies. Equities are primarily invested broadly in domestic and foreign companies across market capitalizations and industries. Fixed income securities are invested broadly, primarily in government treasury, corporate credit, mortgage backed and asset backed investments. Alternative investment allocations are included in U.S. and U.K. pension plans to achieve greater portfolio diversity intended to reduce the overall risk of the plans.
Risks include, but are not limited to, longevity risk, inflation risk, and the risk of other changes in market conditions that reduce the value of plan assets. Also, a decline in the yield of high quality corporate bonds may adversely affect discount rates resulting in an increase in the pension and other post retirement obligations. These risks, among others, could cause the plans’ funded status to deteriorate, increasing reliance on Company contributions. Derivatives are permitted although their current use is limited within traditional funds and broadly allowed within alternative funds. They are primarily used in the U.S. pension trust traditional fixed income portfolios for duration and interest rate risk management and traditional equity portfolios to gain market exposure, and are expected to be used in the U.K. pension schemes for inflation risk management and within the liability driven investing strategy. The Company also has investments in insurance contracts to pay plan benefits in certain countries.
For the U.S. pension trust, an allocation range by asset class is developed. The allocation has a significant weighting to equity investments in part due to the relatively long duration of the plans’ obligations. As of March 2014, the plan fiduciaries adopted investment allocation targets for the U.S. pension trust of 35% equities, 30% fixed income securities, and 35% alternative investments. An allocation range is established for each asset class and cash equivalents may represent 0%-10% of the fund. Asset allocations are monitored closely and investment reviews are conducted regularly. The Company consults with internal and external advisors regarding asset strategy.
For the U.K. pension plans, the Company's second largest pension plans by assets and projected liabilities, a target allocation by asset class is developed to achieve their long term objectives. As of March 2014, the plans held investment allocation targets of 35% equities, 45% fixed income (including 35% corporate credit and 10% in liability-driven investment products), and 20% alternatives. Asset allocations are monitored closely by the plan trustees and investment reviews are conducted regularly. The plan trustees consult with internal and external advisors regarding asset strategy.
Plan Asset Valuation Techniques
Cash equivalents are primarily short term money market commingled funds that are categorized as Level 2, except for funds that have quoted prices in active markets, which are classified as Level 1. They are valued at cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value.
Fixed income accounts are categorized as Level 2. Investments in corporate bonds are primarily investment grade bonds. These investments are generally priced using model-based pricing methods that use observable market data as inputs. Broker dealer bids or quotes of securities with similar characteristics may also be used.
Domestic and global equity separate accounts are categorized as Level 1 if the securities trade on national or international exchanges and are valued at their last reported closing price. Equity assets in commingled funds reporting a net asset value (NAV) are categorized as Level 2.
Insurance contracts purchased to cover benefits payable to retirees are valued using the assumptions used to value the projected benefit obligation. Most of the plans' insurance contracts are categorized as level 2 while one plan has a level 3 insurance contract.
Derivatives are categorized as Level 1 if the securities trade actively on a recognized exchange, as Level 2 if the securities can be valued using observable inputs, or as Level 3 if the securities are valued using significant unobservable inputs.
Alternative investment fund securities are categorized as Level 1 if held in a mutual fund or in a separate account structure and actively traded through a recognized exchange, or as Level 2 if they are held in commingled or collective account structures and are actively traded. Alternative investment fund securities are classified as Level 3 if they are held in Limited Company or Limited Partnership structures or cannot otherwise be classified as Level 1 or Level 2.

Return on Assets
The Company consults with internal and external advisors regarding the expected long-term rate of return on assets. In the U.S. and U.K., the Company uses a "building block" approach to compute the expected long-term rate of return of the major asset classes expected in each of the plans. CSC utilizes long-term, typically 30 years, asset class return assumptions provided by external advisors. Consideration is also given to the extent active management is employed in each asset class and also to management expenses. A single expected long-term rate of return is calculated for each plan by assessing the plan's expected asset allocation strategy, the benefits of diversification therefrom, historical excess returns from actively managed investments, and expected expenses. The resulting composite rate of return is reviewed by internal and external parties for reasonableness.
Retirement Plan Discount Rate
The U.S. discount rate assumption is prepared with a two step process; the first step is a yield curve developed as of the measurement date using high-quality corporate bond yields. In step two, each plan's future cash flows are applied to the appropriate years on the yield curve and the weighted value of the cash flows is used to determine a single equivalent discount rate. In fiscal 2014, the discount rates were developed separately for each U.S. pension and other postretirement plan to the nearest basis point using a single yield curve, the Aon Hewitt AA Only Above Median Curve. This yield curve is a hypothetical AA or greater yield curve represented by a series of annualized individual spot discount rates going out 100 years. This curve provides a more transparent view to the underlying bonds and is available daily which provides for a discount rate to be calculated specific to the Company's fiscal year end. For years prior to fiscal 2013, the U.S. discount rates were determined using an average of the Citigroup yield curve and the AON Hewitt yield curve rounded to the nearest 10bps.
In fiscal 2013, the UK pension plans began using the AA Corporate Bond Mercer Pension Discount Yield Curve to set the discount rate. This yield curve is based on market data. Cash flow data is applied to yields of different durations to determine a single equivalent discount rate. The benefit of the Mercer Yield Curve over the iBoxx GBP Corporates AA +15 index is that it provides the flexibility to use plan specific cash flow information so that the resulting discounts rates reflect appropriate durations of the pension plan's liabilities rather than over a set time period of 15 years. For years prior to fiscal 2013, the U.K. discount rate assumption was set by reference to the yield on the iBoxx GBP AA rated +15 years corporate bond index with an appropriate adjustment for duration if necessary after considering yield curve models and conditions in credit markets.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company sponsors defined contribution plans for substantially all U.S. employees and certain foreign employees.
The plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their earnings in accordance with specified guidelines. Effective January 1, 2014, matching contributions are made once annually in January following the end of the calendar year. In order to receive such contributions, a participant must be employed on December 31 of the plan year. However, if a participant retires (or should decease) from CSC prior to December 31, the participant will be eligible to receive matching contributions approximately 30 days following separation from service. The plan was also amended so participants vest after one year of service from a five-year graded vest. During fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, the Company contributed $179 million, $213 million, and $223 million, respectively. At March 28, 2014, plan assets included 9,378,161 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Deferred Compensation Plan
Effective August 14, 1995, the Company adopted the Computer Sciences Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan). The Plan consists of two separate plans, one for the benefit of key executives and one for the benefit of non-employee directors. Pursuant to the Plan, certain management and highly compensated employees are eligible to defer all or a portion of their regular salary that exceeds the limitation set forth in Internal Revenue Section 401(a)(17) and all or a portion of their incentive compensation, and non-employee directors are eligible to defer up to 100% of their compensation. The liability, which is included in “Other long-term liabilities” under the Plan, amounted to $129 million as of March 28, 2014 and $125 million as of March 29, 2013. The Company’s expense under the Plan totaled $9 million, $8 million, and $8 million, for fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, respectively.
Multi-employer Pension Fund
In connection with certain multi-employer pension funds that are pursuant to collective bargaining agreements, the Company made contributions, generally at a stated hourly rate, to various multi-employer pension funds on behalf of its union-represented employees. All of these plans were within the Company's NPS segment. None of the contributions by the Company are individually significant to the multi-employer plans nor do they have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. The risks of participating in these multi-employer plans are different from single-employer plans. If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers. The Company's contributions for fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012 were $4 million, $11 million, and $11 million, respectively.

	Stock Repurchase Program
	In December 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing up to $1 billion in share repurchases of the Company’s outstanding common stock. CSC has been implementing the program through purchases in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules, market conditions, and applicable federal and state legal requirements. The timing, volume, and nature of share repurchases will be at the discretion of management, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. No end date was established for the repurchase program.
	During fiscal 2014, 9,773,469 shares were purchased through open market purchases for an aggregate consideration of $505 million at a weighted average price of $51.65 per share. Of the aggregate consideration of $505 million, $6 million was recorded as an accrued liability for shares purchased but not yet settled in cash by March 28, 2014. The Company also paid $22 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 for share purchased during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 that had not yet settled as of March 29, 2013.
	During fiscal 2013, 6,707,652 shares were purchased through open market purchases for an aggregate consideration of $305 million at a weighted average price of $45.47 per share. Of the aggregate consideration of $305 million, $22 million was recorded as an accrued liability for shares purchased but not yet settled in cash by March 29, 2013.
	During fiscal 2012, no shares were purchased through open market purchases.
	The shares repurchased were retired immediately and included in the category of authorized but unissued shares. The excess of purchase price over par value of the shares repurchased was allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings.
	Treasury Stock Transactions
	In fiscal 2014, the Company accepted 168,739 shares of its common stock in lieu of cash in connection with exercise of stock options, and 160,753 shares in lieu of cash in connection with the tax withholdings associated with the release of common stock upon vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units.
	Similarly, in fiscal 2013, the Company accepted 91,921 shares of its common stock in lieu of cash in connection with exercise of stock options, and 209,056 shares in lieu of cash in connection with the tax withholdings associated with the release of common stock upon vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units.
	Dividends
	During fiscal 2014, the Company declared cash dividends per common share of $0.80 totaling $118 million. Of the total dividends declared, $29 million was declared but unpaid as of March 28, 2014. Such dividends were paid on April 17, 2014.
	Similarly, during fiscal 2013, the Company declared cash dividends per common share of $0.80 totaling $123 million. Of the total dividends declared, $30 million was unpaid as of March 29, 2013.

Stock Incentive Plans	'
	Stock Incentive Plans
	Employee Incentives
	The Company has three stock incentive plans which authorize the issuance of stock options, restricted stock and other stock-based incentives to employees upon terms approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Company’s overall stock-based compensation granting practice has not changed significantly year over year.
	The Company issues authorized but previously unissued shares upon the exercise of stock options, the granting of restricted stock awards and the settlement of RSUs. There were no restricted stock awards outstanding during fiscal years 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012. As of March 28, 2014, 18,010,857 shares of CSC common stock were available for the grant of future stock options, restricted stock or other stock-based incentives to employees.
	The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense for fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012 as follows:
			Twelve Months Ended
	(Amounts in millions)		March 28, 2014				March 29, 2013				March 30, 2012
	Cost of services		$	25			$	22			$	15
	Selling, general and administrative		48				27				21
	Total		$	73			$	49			$	36
	Total, net of tax		$	46			$	31			$	23
	The increase in the stock-based compensation expense during fiscal 2014 was primarily due to adjustments for actual and expected achievement of the specified performance criteria for certain performance-based RSUs that increased the expense by $21 million, and due to an increased number of RSUs granted during fiscal 2014 at a higher CSC stock price, which increased expense by $13 million. Included in the $13 million increase was an increase of $6 million due to RSUs granted to SMI employees (see Note 3). These increases in expense were partially offset by an adjustment to reflect actual forfeitures of stock options and RSUs during fiscal 2014 that reduced expense by $9 million. In addition, stock-based compensation for fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 included an adjustment of $4 million, $3 million and $5 million, respectively, to reflect the actual forfeiture experience for prior fiscal years.
	The increase in fiscal 2013 stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to performance-based RSUs granted in fiscal 2013 that increased the expense by $15 million. This increase was partially offset by a $3 million reduction of expense as a result of adjustments for expected achievement of the specified performance criteria for performance-based RSUs granted in previous fiscal years. Fiscal 2012 stock-based compensation expense included a $12 million reduction to expense for expected achievement of the specified performance criteria for performance-based RSUs granted in previous fiscal years.
	The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton model in determining the fair value of stock options granted. In determining the overall risk-free interest rate for fiscal 2014, a range of interest rates from 1.35% to 2.36% was applied depending on the expected life of the grant. The range of volatility used for fiscal 2014 was 33% to 39%. The dividend yield assumption was based on the respective fiscal year dividend payouts. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience and adjustments are made annually to reflect actual forfeiture experience.
	The weighted average grant date fair values of stock options granted during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012 were $13.34, $7.37, and $10.17 per share, respectively. In calculating the compensation expense for its stock incentive plans,the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:
		Fiscal Year
		2014			2013			2012
	Risk-free interest rate	1.32	%		1.15	%		1.8	%
	Expected volatility	34	%		36	%		31	%
	Expected term (in years)	6.48			6.59			6.11
	Dividend yield	1.71	%		2.86	%		1.79	%
	During fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, the Company's actual tax benefit realized for tax deductions from exercising stock options was of $26 million, $9 million, and $7 million, respectively, and an excess tax benefit of $8 million, $3 million, and $2 million, respectively, related to all of its stock incentive plans.
	Stock Options
	The Company’s standard vesting schedule for stock options is one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Stock options are generally granted for a term of ten years. Information concerning stock options granted under stock incentive plans during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012 is as follows:

	The total grant date fair value of stock options vested during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, was $14 million, $20 million, and $27 million, respectively. The cash received from stock options exercised during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, was $214 million, $55 million, and $15 million, respectively.
	As of March 28, 2014, there was $31 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options, net of expected forfeitures. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.84 years.
	Restricted Stock Units
	RSUs consist of equity awards with the right to receive one share of common stock of the Company issued at a price of $0. RSUs generally vest over periods of three to five years. Upon the settlement date, RSUs are settled in shares of CSC common stock and dividend equivalents. If, prior to the vesting of the RSU in full, the employee’s status as a full-time employee is terminated, then the RSU is automatically canceled on the employment termination date and any unvested shares and dividend equivalents are forfeited.
	Certain executives were awarded service-based RSUs for which the shares are redeemable over the ten anniversaries following the executive's separation from service as a full-time employee, provided the executive complies with certain non-competition covenants during the ten-year period following the executive's separation of service. For certain executives who joined the company in fiscal year 2013 and after, the awards vest at age 62, or 50% of the award vests at age 55 with 5 years service with an additional 10% vesting each additional year of service up to 10 years of service. Prior to fiscal year 2013, awards vested at age 65 or age 55 with 10 years of service.
The Company also grants performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs). PSUs, generally vest over period of three years. The number of performance-based RSUs that ultimately vest is dependent upon the Company’s achievement of certain specified financial performance criteria over a three-year period. Awards are settled for shares of CSC common stock and dividend equivalents upon the filing with the SEC of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the last fiscal year of the performance period if the specified performance criteria is met. Beginning in fiscal 2013, performance-based RSU awards granted include the potential for accelerated vesting of 25% of the shares granted after the first and second fiscal years if certain company performance targets are met early. Compensation expense during the performance period is estimated at each reporting date using management's expectation of the probable achievement of the specified performance criteria and is adjusted to the extent the expected achievement changes. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, shares were settled due to meeting the company performance targets in fiscal year 2013. The probable achievement was also increased to the maximum payout based on management's expectation of meeting the performance criteria resulting in additional expense recognized. In the table below, such awards are reflected at the number of shares to be settled upon achievement of target performance measures.
Information concerning RSUs granted under the stock incentive plans during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012, is as follows:
	Number of			Weighted

As of March 28, 2014, there was $107 million total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs,
net of expected forfeitures. The unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.23 years.
Non-employee Director Incentives
The Company has two stock incentive plans which authorize the issuance of stock options, restricted stock and other stock-based incentives to non-employee directors upon terms approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2014, 197,400 shares of CSC common stock remained available for the grant to nonemployee directors of future RSUs or other stock-based incentives.
RSU awards to non-employee directors are granted at a price of $0. For RSU awards granted in fiscal 2014, RSUs vest and settle at the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the grant date, or (ii) the date of the Company's first Annual Meeting of the Stockholders held after the grant date. Alternatively, settlement of the RSU may be deferred per election of the non-employee director. For awards granted in fiscal 2013 and prior, vested RSUs are automatically settled for shares of CSC common stock and dividend equivalents when the non-employee director ceases to be a director of the Company.
The number of shares to be settled is equal to the number of RSUs that are vested at the time the holder ceases to be a director. At the holder’s election, the RSUs may be settled (i) in their entirety, upon the day the holder ceases to be a director, or (ii) in substantially equal amounts upon the first five, ten or fifteen anniversaries of such termination of service.
Information concerning RSUs granted to non-employee directors during fiscal 2014, fiscal 2013, and fiscal 2012 is as follows:

	For fiscal 2014, the net foreign currency loss was $15 million, including cost of the hedging program of $2 million. The foreign currency expense was primarily due to movements of foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Indian Rupee, which adversely impacted the market valuation of the Company's hedging program.
	For fiscal years 2013 and 2012, the net foreign currency losses were $17 million and $4 million, respectively, including the cost of the hedging program of $5 million and $6 million, respectively. Similar to fiscal 2014, the fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 foreign currency losses were primarily a result of movements of foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Indian Rupee, which adversely impacted the market valuation of the Company's hedging program.
	Other gains for fiscal 2013 primarily included a gain of $38 million related to the sale of Paxus, the Company's Australian staffing business.

	Segment and Geographic Information
	CSC is a leading provider of IT and professional services and solutions. During fiscal 2013, the Company undertook numerous organizational and operational changes to align the Company's leadership, assets, and operating model with its strategy of leading the next-generation of IT services and solutions. The new operating model supports the execution of CSC's strategy by facilitating the effective development, sales and support of a portfolio of next-generation offerings for commercial and government clients.
	The redesigned operating model, which came into effect at the beginning of fiscal 2014, resulted in a change to the Company's reportable segments for fiscal 2014. CSC's applications development, testing, and maintenance businesses were transferred from the former MSS segment to the former Business Solutions and Services segment, resulting in the new GIS and GBS reportable segments, respectively. Cloud was identified as a fourth operating segment, and is aggregated within the GIS reportable segment due to its relatively small size. There were no changes to the NPS reportable segment.
	The Company’s new reportable segments are as follows:
	•	GBS – GBS comprises three offering-based businesses: Consulting, Industry Software & Solutions (IS&S), and Applications Services. The Consulting business helps large commercial organizations, public-sector entities, and local businesses innovate, transform, and create sustainable competitive advantage through a combination of industry, business process, technology, systems integration and change management expertise. IS&S provides industry-based software, services, and business process services and outsourcing services primarily to the insurance, banking, healthcare and life sciences industries. Applications Services optimizes and modernizes clients' application portfolio and information services sourcing strategy, enabling clients to capitalize on emerging services such as cloud, mobility, and big data within new commercial models such as the "as a Service" (aaS) and digital economies.
	•	GIS – GIS provides managed and virtual desktop solutions, mobile device management, unified communications and collaboration services, data center management, compute and managed storage solutions to commercial clients globally. GIS also delivers CSC's next-generation Cloud offerings, including secure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), private Cloud solutions, CloudMail and Storage as a Service (SaaS). To provide clients with uniquely differentiated offerings and expanded market coverage, GIS also collaborates with a select number of strategic partners. This collaboration helps CSC determine the best technology, road map and opportunities to differentiate solutions, augment capabilities, and jointly deliver impactful solutions. CSC seeks to capitalize on an emerging market trend - to rebundle the IT portfolio on virtualized infrastructure.
	•	NPS – NPS delivers IT, mission, and operations-related services to the Department of Defense, civil agencies of the U.S. federal government, as well as other foreign, state and local government agencies. Commensurate with the Company's strategy, NPS is leveraging CSC's commercial best practices and next-generation technologies to bring scalable and more cost-effective IT solutions to government agencies that are seeking efficiency through innovation. Evolving government priorities such as: 1) IT efficiency, which includes data center consolidation and next-generation cloud technologies, 2) cyber security, 3) mission intelligence driven by big data solutions, and 4) health IT and informatics, drive demand for NPS offerings.
	The following table summarizes the operating results by reportable segments. These results have been recast, from amounts previously reported, to reflect the change in the reportable segments as described above, and to reflect the discontinued operations of two businesses sold during fiscal 2014 and a business that CSC has committed to a plan to sell in fiscal 2014 (see Note 4).

	Contract with the U.K. National Health Service
	Revised Project Agreement
	The Company and the NHS are parties to a contract under which the Company has developed and deployed an integrated electronic patient records system. The NHS contract was amended in April 2009 and the parties entered into variation agreements subsequent to the 2009 amendment agreeing to various operational terms and conditions. The 2009 amendment included mutual releases of all claims existing at the time of the amendment.
	On August 31, 2012, the Company and the NHS entered into a binding interim agreement which was approved by all required U.K. government officials ("interim agreement contract change note" or "IACCN"). The IACCN amended the terms of the parties' then current contract under which the Company has developed and deployed an integrated patient records system using the Company's Lorenzo Regional Care software product. On March 28, 2013, the Company and the NHS signed a letter agreement that modified certain financial terms of the IACCN and provided for a change compensation payment by the NHS to the Company on that date in the amount of £10 million ($15 million) net of value added tax in full and final satisfaction of all costs and claims by CSC arising from changes to the Lorenzo software product that CSC delivered up to a certain version of the product. On October 4, 2013, the Company and the NHS finalized a full restatement of the contract through a "revised project agreement" (RPA). The RPA embodies and incorporates the principal terms of the IACCN and such letter agreement, makes certain other changes with respect the Company’s non-Lorenzo product deployments and consolidates the three regional contracts which comprised the Company's NHS contract into a single agreement. The RPA has been approved by all required U.K. government officials. Pursuant to the RPA, the parties have agreed to a mutual release of certain accrued claims under the contract through the date of the RPA, October 4, 2013.
	Principal Components of the IACCN and the RPA
	The key terms first agreed in the IACCN (and now embodied in the RPA) with respect to the delivery of the Lorenzo product and associated services are as follows:
	1	Under contract terms existing prior to the IACCN, the NHS was committed to purchase the Lorenzo product for multiple trusts. In addition, the Company was the exclusive supplier of such software products and related services to two out of the three regions of the U.K. covered by the existing contract. Under the IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA), the parties agreed that the NHS is no longer subject to any trust volume commitment for the Lorenzo product, and the Company agreed to non-exclusive deployment rights for all products and services in those regions in which it previously enjoyed exclusivity. As a result, the individual trusts can choose third-party software vendors other than CSC to provide a software solution. CSC and the NHS have also agreed to a process for trusts which wish to take the Lorenzo products within the NME regions to obtain central funding from the U.K. Department of Health for implementation of the Lorenzo products. In addition, CSC may offer the Lorenzo solution throughout the rest of England where trusts select CSC's solutions through a separate competitive process.
	2	The IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA), created pricing and payment terms for the Lorenzo product and new terms under which trusts in the contract's NME region that choose the Lorenzo product can access central funds for its deployment, subject to business case justification and the overall availability of such funding. While the funding is provided by the NHS, there is a far greater degree of interaction with the trusts under the terms agreed in the IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA), as the Company works with each individual trust to build a business case and seek NHS approval and central funding to proceed.
	3	Under the IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA), the Lorenzo product was redefined for pricing purposes, with Lorenzo Regional Care comprising the "Base Product," consisting of seven deployment units (or modules) and the "Additional Product," consisting of three other modules. The parties agreed that six of the Base Product's modules had completed the necessary NHS assurances and were ready to deploy to further trusts as of August 31, 2012. The remaining module of the Base Product was similarly accepted by the NHS as complete and ready to deploy to further trusts in early September 2012. Although the NHS assurance of the Base Product's seven modules is complete and the Company and the NHS are committed to complete the assurance of the Additional Product modules, neither the NHS nor any trust is obligated to purchase or deploy any of those modules.
	4	New trusts taking deployments of the Lorenzo product will receive ongoing managed services from the Company for a period of five years from the date such deployment is complete, provided deployment is complete or substantially complete by July 7, 2016. The services include hosting of the software and trust data at the Company's data center as well as support and maintenance, including regulatory updates and other changes over the term of the contract. Under contract terms existing prior to the IACCN, all services were to expire upon the end of the contract term of July 7, 2016, subject to an optional one year extension and an exit transition period.
	The IACCN did not materially alter the terms relating to the deployment of non-Lorenzo products. However, the RPA reflects certain terms not included in the IACCN relating to the Company’s continued deployment, hosting and maintenance services for non-Lorenzo products and services as follows:
	1	The RPA provides that the NHS will no longer be subject to commitments to purchase additional volumes of non-Lorenzo products and will instead have a committed repurposed fund of the same value in the approximate amount of £47.5 million ($75 million) as of the October 4, 2013 RPA effective date. The NHS may, but has no obligation to, use the repurposed fund to purchase a wide range of services and solutions from CSC under the RPA other than new deployments of Lorenzo products. Except as noted in point 2 below, the existing estate of deployed non-Lorenzo products are not affected by the RPA.
	2	The RPA also provides that the NHS may, subject to certain notice requirements and to the payment of certain decommissioning fees to CSC, require that certain services be removed, or decommissioned, from the scope of the contract and that the related service charges be adjusted accordingly. The NHS’s right to decommission services does not apply to Lorenzo services deployed after the October 4, 2013 RPA effective date or to ambulance services. The basis for decommissioning shall be either the complete closure of an NHS trust (or other NHS service recipient) or the cessation of relevant clinical services by a trust (or other NHS service recipient) (a “natural decommissioning”), or an NHS trust (or other NHS service recipient) determining that it no longer requires a particular service for any other reason (a “voluntary decommissioning”). The NHS is subject, during the remaining term of the contract, to an aggregate monetary limit on the ability to effect any voluntary decommissionings, which at the October 4, 2013 RPA effective date was approximately £19.6 million ($31 million). The NHS is also subject, during the remaining term of the contract, to aggregate monetary limits on the ability to effect any voluntary decommissionings with respect to individual modules of certain products, which limits at the October 4, 2013 RPA effective date, ranged from approximately £0.2 million to £4.4 million ($0.3 million to $6.9 million) (depending on the affected module in question).
	Accounting
	Prior to the IACCN, the NHS contract has been accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method based on management's best estimates of total contract revenue and costs. Based on then existing circumstances, CSC revised its estimate of revenues and costs at completion during the third quarter of fiscal 2012 to include only those revenues reasonably assured of collection. As a result of that change, the Company recorded a $1.5 billion contract charge in that quarter, resulting in no material remaining net assets.
	The terms of the IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA) represented a significant modification to the prior agreement, including a significant reduction in additional product development and elimination of any commitment by the NHS to future Lorenzo deployments and the Company's exclusivity rights in two of the three contract regions. The Company concluded that it will account for the terms of the IACCN (and as now embodied in the RPA) as a new contract and will recognize revenue as a services arrangement. Revenue recognition for each trust deployment will begin at the start of the trust's hosting period. Payments from the NHS for deployment of systems will be deferred and recognized over the service period. Direct costs incurred for deployment activities will be deferred and amortized to expense over the service period as well. The total up-front consideration of £78 million ($126 million), including the £68 million ($110 million) net settlement payment and a £10 million ($16 million) escrow release, is primarily attributed to future Lorenzo deployments and will be deferred and recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the contract ending July 2016.
	The £10 million ($15 million) payment received on March 28, 2013, as well as future consideration not noted above, when and if earned, will be deferred and amortized over the longer of the term of the contract or the estimated performance period. As of March 28, 2014, the amount of deferred costs and deferred revenues was $14 million and $184 million, respectively.

	Settlement of Claims with U.S. Government
	During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company reached a definitive settlement agreement with the U.S. government in its contract claims asserted under the Contract Disputes Act of 1978 (CDA). Under the terms of the settlement, the Company received $277 million in cash and a five-year extension (four base years plus one option year) with an estimated value of $1 billion to continue to support and expand the capabilities of the systems covered by the original contract scheduled to expire in December 2011. In exchange, the Government received unlimited rights to the Company’s intellectual property developed to support the services delivered under the contract, and CSC dismissed the claims and terminated legal actions against the Government and the Government dismissed its counter claims against CSC. The contract extension contained a Requirements portion (Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) 16.503) and an Indefinite Quantity portion (FAR 16.504) and is not subject to any minimum values. In December 2011, the Company signed the contract modification based on the terms described above.
	The Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $269 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to write down its claim related assets (claim related unbilled receivables of $379 million and deferred costs of $227 million) to reflect the cash received of $277 million, the estimated fair value of the contract extension of $45 million, and previously unapplied payments of $15 million. Of the pre-tax charge of $269 million, $42 million was recorded as a reduction of revenue and $227 million as a separately itemized charge to cost of services. The fair value of the contract extension was recorded as a contract asset and will be amortized as a reduction of revenue over the four year fixed contract term in proportion to the expected revenues or on a straight line basis, whichever is greater.
	These claims relate to a contract that was awarded (the “Contract”) in December 1999 as a 10 year fixed price contract. In April 2004, the contract was extended by two additional years. Revenue recorded under the core Contract was initially recognized as a single profit center using the percentage-of-completion method based on the guidance in ASC 605-35, “construction-type and production-type contracts.”
	During the course of the contract, CSC incurred significant costs for out-of-scope work that was a result of Government directed changes and delays. Negotiations with the Government were initiated to recover the costs related to this work. During the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company filed its 14 interest bearing claims (collectively the “CDA Claims”), then totaling approximately $858 million, with the Government.  On September 11, 2007, the Company initiated litigation at the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (“ASBCA”), one of the two forums available for litigation of CDA claims.
	In accordance with accepted practice, the Company amended its CDA Claims twice to reflect adjustments to the total value of the CDA Claims.  On December 24, 2009, the Government made a partial payment of $35 million on one of the CDA Claims.  Thereafter, CSC filed a second amended complaint with the ASBCA reducing the value of its CDA Claims by $35 million. On November 19, 2010, the Government and the Company entered into a formal agreement to stay the CDA Claims litigation and engage in a non-binding alternate dispute resolution (“ADR”) process to resolve all outstanding CDA Claims and other issues associated with the contract. As of July 1, 2011, the Company had fourteen claims totaling approximately $675 million, excluding interest, asserted against the U.S. federal government under a single contract pending before the ASBCA.
	Prior to the settlement, the Company believed it had valid bases for pursuing recovery of the CDA Claims supported by outside counsel’s evaluation of the facts and assistance in the preparation of the claims. To verify its position, CSC requested that outside counsel analyze whether the first two conditions of Paragraph 31 of ASC 605-35-25 were satisfied with respect to the Company’s assertions of government breaches of the contract, government-caused delays and disruption to the Company’s performance of the contract, and unanticipated additional work performed by the Company under the contract. The outside counsel issued an opinion that the Company’s position met the criteria on April 22, 2005, and reiterated that opinion on May 20, 2011.

	The Company has operating leases for the use of certain real estate and equipment. Substantially all operating leases are non-cancelable or cancelable only by the payment of penalties. All lease payments are based on the lapse of time but include, in some cases, payments for insurance, maintenance and property taxes. There are no purchase options on operating leases at favorable terms, but most real estate leases have one or more renewal options. Certain leases on real estate are subject to annual escalations for increases in utilities and property taxes. Lease rental expense amounted to $280 million, $319 million, and $324 million, for the years ended March 28, 2014, March 29, 2013, and March 30, 2012, respectively. In addition, the Company also has $25 million of sublease income to be received through fiscal 2020.
	Minimum fixed rentals required for the next five years and thereafter under operating leases in effect at March 28, 2014, are as follows:

	The Company has signed long-term purchase agreements with certain software, hardware, telecommunication and other service providers to obtain favorable pricing and terms for services and products that are necessary for the operations of business activities. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company is contractually committed to purchase specified minimums over periods ranging from one to five years. If the Company does not meet the specified minimums, the Company would have an obligation to pay the service provider all or a portion of the shortfall. Minimum purchase commitments are $487 million in fiscal 2015, $419 million in fiscal 2016, $338 million in fiscal 2017, $175 million in fiscal 2018, $7 million in fiscal 2019, and $7 million thereafter.
	In the normal course of business, the Company may provide certain clients, principally governmental entities, with financial performance guarantees, which are generally backed by stand-by letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, the Company would only be liable for the amounts of these guarantees in the event that nonperformance by the Company permits termination of the related contract by the Company’s client. As of March 28, 2014, the Company had $82 million of outstanding letters of credit and $21 million of surety bonds relating to these performance guarantees. The Company believes it is in compliance with its performance obligations under all service contracts for which there is a financial performance guarantee, and the ultimate liability, if any, incurred in connection with these guarantees will not have a material adverse affect on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.
	The Company also uses stand-by letters of credit, in lieu of cash, to support various risk management insurance policies. These letters of credit represent a contingent liability and the Company would only be liable if it defaults on its payment obligations towards these policies. As of March 28, 2014, the Company had $80 million of outstanding stand-by letters of credit. Generally, such guarantees have a one-year term and are renewed annually.
	The following table summarizes the expiration of the Company’s financial guarantees and stand-by letters of credit outstanding as of March 28, 2014:

	The Company generally indemnifies licensees of its proprietary software products against claims brought by third parties alleging infringement of their intellectual property rights (including rights in patents (with or without geographic limitations), copyright, trademarks and trade secrets). CSC’s indemnification of its licensees relates to costs arising from court awards, negotiated settlements and the related legal and internal costs of those licensees. The Company maintains the right, at its own costs, to modify or replace software in order to eliminate any infringement. Historically, CSC has not incurred any significant costs related to licensee software indemnification.
	Contingencies
	The Company has a contract with the NHS to develop and deploy an integrated patient records system as a part of the U.K. Government's NHS IT program. On August 31, 2012, the Company and NHS entered into a binding interim agreement contract change note, or IACCN, which amended the terms of the then current contract and formed the basis on which the parties finalized a full restatement of the contract. On March 28, 2013, the Company and the NHS signed a letter agreement that modified certain terms of the IACCN. On October 4, 2013, the Company and NHS finalized a full restatement of the contract through a revised project agreement (RPA). The RPA embodies and incorporates the principal terms of the IACCN and such letter agreement, makes certain other changes with respect the Company’s non-Lorenzo product deployments and consolidates the three regional contracts which comprised the Company's NHS contract into a single agreement. See Note 21 for further information relating to foregoing matters.
	As previously disclosed, the Company initiated an investigation into out of period adjustments resulting from certain accounting errors in its former MSS segment, primarily involving accounting irregularities in the Nordic region. Initially, the investigation was conducted by Company personnel, but outside Company counsel and forensic accountants retained by such counsel later assisted in the Company's investigation. On January 28, 2011, the Company was notified by the SEC's Division of Enforcement that it had commenced a formal civil investigation relating to these matters, which investigation has been expanded to other matters subsequently identified by the SEC, including matters specified in subpoenas issued to the Company from time to time by the SEC's Division of Enforcement as well as matters under investigation by the Audit Committee, as further described below. The Company is cooperating in the SEC's investigation.
	On May 2, 2011, the Audit Committee commenced an independent investigation into the matters relating to the former MSS segment and the Nordic region, matters identified by subpoenas issued by the SEC's Division of Enforcement, and certain other accounting matters identified by the Audit Committee and retained independent counsel to represent CSC on behalf of, and under the exclusive direction of, the Audit Committee in connection with such independent investigation. Independent counsel retained forensic accountants to assist with their work. Independent counsel also represents CSC on behalf of, and under the exclusive direction of, the Audit Committee in connection with the investigation by the SEC's Division of Enforcement.
	The Audit Committee’s investigation was expanded to encompass (i) the Company’s operations in Australia, (ii) certain aspects of the Company’s accounting practices within its Americas Outsourcing operation, and (iii) certain of the Company’s accounting practices that involve the percentage-of-completion accounting method, including the Company’s contract with the NHS. In the course of the Audit Committee's expanded investigation, accounting errors and irregularities were identified. As a result, certain personnel have been reprimanded, suspended, terminated and/or have resigned. The Audit Committee determined in August 2012 that its independent investigation was complete. The Audit Committee instructed its independent counsel to cooperate with the SEC's Division of Enforcement by completing production of documents and providing any further information requested by the SEC's Division of Enforcement.
	In addition to the matters noted above, the SEC's Division of Enforcement is continuing its investigation involving its concerns with certain of the Company's prior disclosures and accounting determinations with respect to the Company's contract with the NHS and the possible impact of such matters on the Company's financial statements for years prior to the Company's current fiscal year. The Company and the Audit Committee and its independent counsel are continuing to respond to SEC questions and to cooperate with the SEC's Division of Enforcement in its investigation of prior disclosures and accounting determinations with respect to the Company's contract with the NHS. The SEC's investigative activities are ongoing.
	In addition, the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance has issued comment letters to the Company requesting, among other things, additional information regarding its previously disclosed adjustments in connection with the above-referenced accounting errors, the Company's conclusions relating to the materiality of such adjustments, and the Company's analysis of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting. The SEC's Division of Corporation Finance's comment letter process is ongoing, and the Company is continuing to cooperate with that process.
	The investigation being conducted by the SEC's Division of Enforcement and the review of the Company's financial disclosures by the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance are continuing and could identify other accounting errors, irregularities or other areas of review. As a result, we have incurred and may continue to incur significant legal and accounting expenditures. As the Company previously disclosed, certain of its non-U.S. employees and certain of its former employees, including certain former executives in the United States, have received Wells notices from the SEC’s Division of Enforcement in connection with its ongoing investigation of the Company. The Company received a Wells notice from the SEC’s Division of Enforcement on December 11, 2013. A Wells notice is not a formal allegation or a finding of wrongdoing; it is a preliminary determination by the SEC Enforcement Staff to recommend that the Commission file a civil enforcement action or administrative proceeding against the recipient. Under SEC procedures, a recipient of a Wells notice has an opportunity to respond in the form of a Wells submission that seeks to persuade the Commission that such an action should not be brought. The Company has been availing itself of the Wells process by making a Wells submission to explain its views concerning such matters, which are aided by the Company Audit Committee's independent investigation and certain expert opinions of outside professionals. The Company made such a submission on January 14, 2014 and a supplemental submission on April 9, 2014. The Company, through outside counsel, has been in continuing discussions with the SEC Enforcement Staff concerning a potential resolution of the staff’s investigation involving the Company. However, to date those discussions have not resulted in a resolution. The Company is unable to estimate with confidence or certainty how long the SEC process will last or its ultimate outcome, including whether the Company will reach a settlement with the SEC and, if so, the amount of any related monetary fine and other possible remedies. In addition, the Company is unable to predict the timing of the completion of the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance's review of its financial disclosures or the outcome of such review. Publicity surrounding the foregoing or any enforcement action as a result of the SEC's investigation, even if ultimately resolved favorably for CSC, could have an adverse impact on the Company's reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is unable to estimate with confidence or certainty any possible loss or range of loss associated with these matters at this time. See Note 2 for further information.
	Between June 3, 2011, and July 21, 2011, four putative class action complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, entitled City of Roseville Employee's Retirement System v. Computer Sciences Corporation, et al. (No. 1:11-cv-00610-TSE-IDD), Murphy v. Computer Sciences Corporation, et al. (No. 1:11-cv-00636-TSE-IDD), Kramer v. Computer Sciences Corporation, et al. (No. 1:11-cv-00751-TSE-IDD) and Goldman v. Computer Sciences Corporation, et al. (No. 1:11-cv-777-TSE-IDD). On August 29, 2011, the four actions were consolidated as In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation (No. 1:11-cv-610-TSE-IDD) and Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan Board was appointed lead plaintiff. A consolidated class action complaint was filed by plaintiff on September 26, 2011, and names as defendants CSC, Michael W. Laphen, Michael J. Mancuso and Donald G. DeBuck. A corrected complaint was filed on October 19, 2011. The complaint alleges violations of the federal securities laws in connection with alleged misrepresentations and omissions regarding the business and operations of the Company. Specifically, the allegations arise from the Company's disclosure of the Company's investigation into certain accounting irregularities in the Nordic region and its disclosure regarding the status of the Company's agreement with the NHS. Among other things, the plaintiff sought unspecified monetary damages. The plaintiff filed a motion for class certification with the court on September 22, 2011, and the defendants filed a motion to dismiss on October 18, 2011. A hearing was held on November 4, 2011. On August 29, 2012, the court issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order granting in part and denying in part the motion to dismiss. The court granted the motion to dismiss with respect to the plaintiff's claims in connection with alleged misrepresentations and omissions concerning the Company's operations in the Nordic Region. The court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss with respect to the plaintiff's claims in connection with alleged misrepresentations and omissions concerning the Company's internal controls and the Company's contract with the NHS. The court also granted the plaintiff leave to amend its complaint by September 12, 2012, and maintained the stay of discovery until the sufficiency of the amended complaint had been decided. The court further denied plaintiff's motion for class certification without prejudice. On September 12, 2012, the plaintiff filed a notice advising the Court that it had determined not to amend its complaint and renewed its motion for class certification. On September 21, 2012, the court issued an Order setting the hearing on the motion for class certification for October 12, 2012, directing the parties to complete discovery by January 11, 2013 and scheduling the final pretrial conference for January 17, 2013. On October 9, 2012, the defendants filed their answer to the plaintiff's complaint. On October 12, 2012, the hearing on the motion for class certification was rescheduled to November 1, 2012. On October 31, 2012, the parties filed a joint motion with the court requesting that the hearing on the motion for class certification be rescheduled to a later date. On November 1, 2012, the court issued an order setting the hearing for class certification for November 15, 2012. On November 30, 2012, the court granted plaintiff's motion for class certification. On December 14, 2012, defendants filed with the Fourth Circuit a petition for permission to appeal the class certification order pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(f). Plaintiff's response to the petition was filed on February 20, 2013. On March 5, 2013, the Fourth Circuit denied the petition for permission to appeal the class certification order. On December 14, 2012, the court issued an order extending the expert discovery deadline to February 25, 2013. On December 20, 2012, the court issued an order extending the fact discovery deadline to February 11, 2013 and the expert discovery deadline to March 25, 2013. On January 13, 2013, the court issued an order extending the expert discovery deadline to April 1, 2013. Motions for summary judgment were filed on March 18, 2013. On May 15, 2013, the Company entered into a stipulation and agreement of settlement with the lead plaintiff to settle all claims in the lawsuit for $97.5 million, which was accrued for as of March 29, 2013 and included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of March 29, 2013, the Company has also recorded a receivable of $45 million, which represents the amount recoverable under the Company's corporate insurance policies, and is included in receivables on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amounts due from the insurance companies were received during fiscal 2014. The agreement was subject to approval by the court. On May 24, 2013, the Court entered a Preliminary Approval Order Providing for Notice and Hearing in Connection with Proposed Class Action Settlement. On September 19, 2013, a Settlement Hearing was held before the Court. On September 20, 2013, the Court entered a Final Order and Judgment, which, among other things, approved the Settlement in all respects.
	On September 13, 2011, a shareholder derivative action entitled Che Wu Hung v. Michael W. Laphen, et al. (CL 2011 13376) was filed in Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, against Michael W. Laphen, Michael J. Mancuso, the members of the Audit Committee and the Company as a nominal defendant asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty and contribution and indemnification relating to alleged failure by the defendants to disclose accounting and financial irregularities in the MSS segment, primarily in the Nordic region, and the Company's performance under the NHS agreement and alleged failure to maintain effective internal controls. The plaintiff sought damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees and costs. On October 24, 2011, the defendants removed the action to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. On November 23, 2011, the plaintiff filed a motion to remand the case to state court. Argument was held on December 15, 2011. During argument the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed his complaint without prejudice to refiling the action in state court. The Court granted the plaintiff's request, dismissed the complaint without prejudice and denied the motion to remand as moot. On December 22, 2011, the plaintiff refiled his complaint in Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia in a shareholder derivative action entitled Che Wu Hung v. Michael W. Laphen, et al. (CL 2011 18046). Named as defendants are Michael W. Laphen, Michael J. Mancuso, the members of the Audit Committee and the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims for (i) breach of fiduciary duty relating to alleged failure by the defendants to disclose accounting and financial irregularities in the MSS segment, primarily in the Nordic region, the Company's performance under the NHS agreement and alleged failure to maintain effective internal controls and (ii) corporate waste. The plaintiff sought damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees and costs. On April 6, 2012, the state court stayed the action until the earlier of (i) entry of an order on the pending motion to dismiss In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation (No. 1:11-cv-610-TSE-IDD) or (ii) July 5, 2012. On July 20, 2012, the state court renewed the stay until the earlier of (i) entry of an order on the pending motion to dismiss in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation or (ii) October 18, 2012. The stay expired on August 30, 2012 with the entry of the court's order in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. On October 19, 2012, upon the joint motion of the parties, the state court issued an order staying the action while discovery proceeded in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. The order required defendants to provide to the plaintiff certain of the discovery produced in the federal action. On May 10, 2013, the court continued the stay to May 31, 2013 upon joint motion of the parties. On June 1, 2013, the parties filed a joint motion to continue the stay. On June 28, 2013, the court denied the joint motion to continue the stay and set the matter for trial on January 6, 2014. On August 9, 2013, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which named as defendants Messrs. Laphen and Mancuso, members of the Company’s Board of Directors and the Company as a nominal defendant. On August 23, 2013, the parties, as well as the parties to the Bainto and Himmel cases, entered into a stipulation of settlement, which, if approved by the court, would require CSC to implement or maintain corporate governance reforms and pay to plaintiffs’ counsel an attorney fee and expense amount of $2 million and would release the claims asserted in the Hung, Bainto, Himmel and Morefield cases. The settlement was subject to approval by the Nevada state court. In accordance with the terms of the stipulation of settlement, on August 28, 2013, the plaintiff filed a motion for nonsuit, which was entered by the Virginia state court on September 11, 2013. On September 27, 2013, the Nevada state court entered an Order Preliminarily Approving Derivative Settlement and Providing for Notice. The Order scheduled a Settlement Hearing for November 6, 2013. On November 6, 2013, the Nevada state court entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice, which, among other things, approved the settlement in all respects.
	On May 11, 2012, a separate shareholder derivative action entitled Judy Bainto v. Michael W. Laphen et al. (No. A-12-661695-C), was filed in District Court, Clark County, Nevada, against Messrs. Laphen and Mancuso, members of the Company's Board of Directors and the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint is substantively similar to the second Hung complaint. On or about August 1, 2012, the court granted the parties' joint motion to extend the time for defendants to respond to the complaint to sixty days after the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia's entry of an order on the pending motion to dismiss the complaint in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. On September 5, 2012, Defendants notified the court of the Eastern District of Virginia's ruling in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. On September 11, 2012, the parties filed a joint status report proposing a schedule for the filing of an amended complaint by plaintiff and for motion to dismiss briefing. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on September 28, 2012. Upon stipulation of the parties, the court consolidated the Bainto case and Himmel case (described below) and deemed the amended complaint filed in Bainto the operative complaint. In addition, on November 8, 2012, upon joint motion of the parties, the court issued an order staying the action while discovery proceeded in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. The order required Defendants to provide to the Plaintiffs certain of the discovery produced in the federal action. On August 23, 2013, the parties, as well as the parties to the Hung and Himmel cases, entered into a stipulation of settlement, which, if approved by the court, would require CSC to implement or maintain corporate governance reforms and pay to plaintiffs’ counsel an attorney fee and expense amount of $2 million and would release the claims asserted in the Hung, Bainto, Himmel and Morefield cases. The settlement was subject to approval by the Nevada state court. On September 27, 2013, the Nevada state court entered an Order Preliminarily Approving Derivative Settlement and Providing for Notice. The Order scheduled a Settlement Hearing for November 6, 2013. On November 6, 2013, the Nevada state court entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice, which, among other things, approved the settlement in all respects.
	On October 16, 2012, a separate shareholder derivative action entitled Daniel Himmel v. Michael W. Laphen et al. (No. A-12-670190-C), was filed in District Court, Clark County, Nevada, against Messrs. Laphen and Mancuso, members of the Company's Board of Directors and the Company as a nominal defendant. The Himmel complaint is substantively similar to the Bainto complaint, but included a claim for unjust enrichment and sought additional injunctive relief. Upon stipulation of the parties, the court consolidated the Bainto case (described above) and the Himmel case and deemed the amended complaint filed in Bainto the operative complaint. In addition, on November 8, 2012, upon joint motion of the parties, the court issued an order staying the action while discovery proceeded in In re Computer Sciences Corporation Securities Litigation. The order required Defendants to provide to the Plaintiffs certain of the discovery produced in the federal action. On August 23, 2013, the parties, as well as the parties to the Hung and Bainto cases, entered into a stipulation of settlement, which, if approved by the court, would require CSC to implement or maintain corporate governance reforms and pay to plaintiffs’ counsel an attorney fee and expense amount of $2 million and would release the claims asserted in the Hung, Bainto, Himmel and Morefield cases. The settlement was subject to approval by the Nevada state court. On September 27, 2013, the Nevada state court entered an Order Preliminarily Approving Derivative Settlement and Providing for Notice. The Order scheduled a Settlement Hearing for November 6, 2013. On November 6, 2013, the Nevada state court entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice, which, among other things, approved the settlement in all respects.
	On December 20, 2012, a separate shareholder derivative complaint entitled Shirley Morefield v Irving W. Bailey, II, et al, (Case No. 1:120V1468GBL/TCB) was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The complaint names certain of CSC's current and former directors and officers as defendants and the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint is similar to the Hung complaint but asserts only a claim for breach of fiduciary duty and alleges that the plaintiff made a demand on the CSC Board prior to commencing suit and that such demand was refused. Motions to dismiss were filed on March 18, 2013. On April 8, 2013, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint. Motions to dismiss the amended complaint were filed on April 17, 2013 and were heard on May 10, 2013. On August 7, 2013, the court granted the motions to dismiss with prejudice and entered judgment in favor of the defendants. On or about August 26, 2013, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. On October 6, 2013, the parties reached an agreement to resolve the appeal. Plaintiff agreed to dismiss her appeal upon approval of the settlement in the Hung, Bainto and Himmel matters and agreed that, upon final approval of that settlement, her claims shall be released, fully, finally and forever. CSC agreed to pay to Plaintiff’s counsel an attorney fee and expense amount of $195,000. On November 6, 2013, the Nevada state court entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice, which, among other things, approved the settlement of the Hung, Bainto and Himmel matters in all respects. Plaintiff’s appeal was dismissed on November 8, 2013.
	On March 1, 2012, the Company was competitively awarded the Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project (“MERP”) contract by the State of Maryland (the State) to modernize the Medicaid Management Information System ("MMIS"), a database of Medicaid recipients and providers used to manage Medicaid reimbursement claims. The MERP contract is predominately fixed price. Also, since awarded, federal government-mandated Medicaid information technology standards have been in considerable flux. The State has directed the Company to include additional functionality in the design to incorporate new federal mandates and guidance promulgated after the base scope of the Contract was finalized. Further, the State has declined to approve contract modifications to compensate the Company for the additional work.
	As a result of the State’s refusal to amend the MERP contract and equitably adjust the compensation to be paid to the Company and, in accordance with prescribed State statutes and regulations, the Company timely filed a certified contract claim with the State in the total estimated amount of approximately $61 million on September 27, 2013 (Contract Claim #1). On February 14, 2014, the Company filed Contract Claim #1A, which amends Contract Claim #1, to a claim of approximately $34 million. The Company believes it has valid and reasonable factual and legal bases for Contract Claims #1 and 1A, and that the circumstances that have led or will lead to the Company’s additional costs set forth in Contract Claims #1 and 1A were unforeseen as of the operative proposal submission dates and are not the result of deficiencies in CSC’s performance. However, the Company’s position is subject to the ongoing evaluation of new facts and information which may come to the Company’s attention should an appeal of the State's denial of Contract Claims #1 and 1A be litigated before the Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals (the Board).
	On February 19, 2014, the State provided a recommended decision denying Contract Claims #1 and 1A to the Company. The February 19, 2014 recommended decision was not a final agency determination on the claims. On April 29, 2014, the State provided a final decision, dated April 25, 2014, denying the claims to the Company. The Company has 30 days from the receipt of the final decision to file a Notice of Appeal with the Board, which has exclusive initial jurisdiction of State contract claims concerning breach, performance, modification, or termination of contracts procured under Title II of Maryland's General Procurement Law. The Company intends to file an appeal within the allotted time.
	In addition to the matters noted above, the Company is currently party to a number of disputes which involve or may involve litigation. The Company consults with legal counsel on those issues related to litigation and seeks input from other experts and advisors with respect to such matters in the ordinary course of business. Whether any losses, damages or remedies ultimately resulting from such matters could reasonably have a material effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operation, or cash flows will depend on a number of variables, including, for example, the timing and amount of such losses or damages (if any) and the structure and type of any such remedies.  For these reasons, it is not possible to make reasonable estimates of the amount or range of loss that could result from these other matters at this time. Company management does not, however, presently expect any of such other matters to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'		'
Use of Estimates	'		'
	Use of Estimates
	GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of historical experience, current events, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Amounts subject to significant judgment and estimates include, but are not limited to, contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method, cash flows used in the evaluation of impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, intangible assets, certain deferred costs, collectability of receivables, reserves for uncertain tax benefits, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, loss accruals for litigation, pension related liabilities, inputs used for computing stock-based compensation and the fair value of derivative instruments.
Revenue Recognition	'		'
	Revenue Recognition
	The Company's primary service offerings are information technology (IT) outsourcing, other professional services, or a combination thereof. Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services or products have been provided to the client, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. For non-software arrangements that include multiple-elements, revenue recognition involves the identification of separate units of accounting after consideration of combining and/or segmenting contracts and allocation of the arrangement consideration to the units of accounting on the basis of their relative selling price. Revenue under such contracts is recognized based upon the levels of services delivered in the periods in which they are provided. Upfront fees billed for the contract set-up include configuring hardware to new service levels, consolidating and migrating customer architecture from physical to virtual servers, and establishing disaster recoverability capability. These activities do not qualify as separate units of accounting and they are deferred until service commencement and recognized ratably over the period of performance during the period in which CSC provides the related service, which is the life of the contract. Costs are expensed as incurred, except for direct and incremental set-up costs that are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract (see Outsourcing Contract Costs below). See the section below regarding software transactions that include multiple elements.
	The Company provides these services under time and materials, cost-reimbursable, unit-price and fixed-price contracts, the revenue for which is recognized in the following manner:
	Time and materials contracts - Revenue is recorded at agreed-upon billing rates at the time services are provided.
	Cost-reimbursable contracts - Revenue is recorded at the time costs are incurred and associated fees are recognized when probable and estimable by applying an estimated factor to costs as incurred, such factor being determined by the contract provisions and prior experience.
	Unit-price contracts - Revenue is recognized on unit-price contracts based on unit metrics multiplied by the agreed upon contract unit price or when services are delivered.
	Fixed-price contracts - For certain fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method as described below; these include certain software development projects, all long-term construction-type contracts, and certain fixed-price arrangements with the U.S. federal government. For other fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of the services delivered to date as a percentage of the total services to deliver over the contract term. If output or input measures are not available or cannot be reasonably estimated, revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term.
	Under the percentage-of-completion method, progress towards completion is measured based on either achievement of specified contract milestones, costs incurred as a proportion of estimated total costs, or other measures of progress when available. Profit in a given period is reported at the estimated profit margin to be achieved on the overall contract. This method can result in the recognition of unbilled receivables, the deferral of costs as work in process, or deferral of profit on these contracts. Contracts that require estimates at completion using the percentage-of-completion method accounted for approximately 18.7% of the Company's revenues for fiscal 2014. Management regularly reviews project profitability and underlying estimates. Revisions to the estimates at completion are reflected in results of operations as a change in accounting estimate in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known by management. Provisions for estimated losses at completion, if any, are recognized in the period in which the loss becomes evident. The provision includes estimated costs in excess of estimated revenue and any profit margin previously recognized.
	Multiple-element software sales - For multiple-element arrangements that involve the sale of CSC proprietary software, post contract customer support, and other software-related services, vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value is required to allocate and recognize revenue for each element. VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged where each deliverable is sold separately. In situations where VSOE of fair value exists for all undelivered elements but not a delivered element (typically the software license element), the residual method is used to allocate revenue to the undelivered elements equal to their VSOE value with the remainder allocated to the delivered element. If significant customization is required, and VSOE is available to support accounting for the software as a separate unit of account, software revenue is recognized as the related software customization services are performed in accordance with the percentage-of-completion method described above. In situations where VSOE of fair value does not exist for all of the undelivered software-related elements, revenue is deferred until only one undelivered element remains and then recognized following the pattern of delivery of the final undelivered element.
Depreciation and Amortization	'		'
	Depreciation and Amortization
	The Company’s depreciation and amortization policies are as follows:
	Property and Equipment:
	Buildings	Up to 40 years
	Computers and related equipment	3 to 5 years
	Furniture and other equipment	2 to 15 years
	Leasehold improvements	Shorter of lease term or useful life
	Software	2 to 10 years
	Outsourcing contract costs	Contract life, excluding option years
	Customer related intangibles	Expected customer service life
	Acquired contract related intangibles	Contract life and first contract renewal, where applicable
	The cost of property and equipment, less applicable residual values, is depreciated using predominately the straight-line method. Depreciation commences when the specific asset is complete, installed and ready for normal use.
	Software and outsourcing contract costs are amortized using predominately the straight-line method. Acquired contract related and customer related intangible assets are amortized in proportion to the estimated undiscounted cash flows projected over the estimated life of the asset or on a straight-line basis if such cash flows cannot be reliably estimated.
Pension and Other Benefit Plans	'		'
	Pension and Other Benefit Plans
	The Company and its subsidiaries offer a number of pension and postretirement benefits, life insurance benefits, deferred compensation, and other plans. All plans are accounted for using the guidance of ASC 710 "Compensation - General" and ASC 715 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits” and are measured as of the end of the fiscal year.
	CSC utilizes actuarial methods to measure the benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost/(income) for its pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Inherent in the application of these actuarial methods are key assumptions, including, but not limited to, discount rates, expected long-term rates of return on plan assets, mortality rates, rates of compensation increases, and medical cost trend rates. Company management evaluates these assumptions annually and updates assumptions as necessary.
	Net actuarial gains or losses are amortized to expense in future periods when they exceed ten percent of the greater of the plan assets or projected benefit obligations by benefit plan. The excess of gains or losses over the ten percent threshold are subject to amortization over the average future service period for employees of plans that are predominately active, or over the average life expectancy of all participants for plans that are predominately inactive or frozen to new accruals. Most of CSC's pension liabilities are frozen to new accruals.
	The fair value of assets are determined based on the prevailing market prices or estimated fair value of investments when quoted prices are not available.
Software Development Costs	'		'
	Software Development Costs
	The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop commercial software products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed after establishing technological feasibility until such time the software products are available for general release to customers. Costs incurred to establish technological feasibility are charged to expense as incurred. Enhancements to software products are capitalized where such enhancements extend the life or significantly expand the marketability of the products. Amortization of capitalized software development costs is determined separately for each software product. Annual amortization expense is calculated based on the greater of the ratio of current gross revenues for each product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for the product or the straight-line amortization method over the estimated economic life of the product.
	Unamortized capitalized software costs associated with commercial software products are regularly evaluated for impairment on a product-by-product basis by a comparison of the unamortized balance to the product’s net realizable value. The net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from that product reduced by the related estimated future costs. When the unamortized balance exceeds the net realizable value, the unamortized balance is written down to the net realizable value and an impairment charge is recorded.
	The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop internal-use computer software during the application development stage. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred in connection with development of upgrades or enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized. Capitalized costs associated with internal-use software are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. Purchased software is capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. Internal-use software assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
Outsourcing Contract Costs	'		'
	Outsourcing Contract Costs
	Costs on outsourcing contracts, including costs incurred for bid and proposal activities, are generally expensed as incurred. However, certain costs incurred upon initiation of an outsourcing contract are deferred and expensed over the contract life. These costs represent incremental external costs or certain specific internal costs that are directly related to the contract acquisition or transition activities. Such capitalized costs can be separated into two principal categories: contract acquisition costs and transition/set-up costs. The primary types of costs that may be capitalized include labor and related fringe benefits, subcontractor costs, travel costs, and premiums on asset purchases.
	Premiums are amounts paid to customers in excess of the fair market value of assets acquired. Fixed assets acquired in connection with outsourcing transactions are capitalized at fair value and depreciated consistent with the fixed asset policies described above. Premiums paid are capitalized as outsourcing contract costs and amortized over the contract life. The amortization of outsourcing contract cost premiums is accounted for as a reduction in revenue. The second principal category of capitalized outsourcing costs is transition/set-up costs. Such costs are primarily associated with the installation of systems and processes and are amortized over the contract life.
	In the event indications exist that an outsourcing contract cost balance related to a particular contract may be impaired, undiscounted estimated cash flows of the contract are projected over its remaining term and compared to the associated long-lived asset group including the unamortized outsourcing contract cost balance. If the projected cash flows are not adequate to recover the unamortized cost balance of the asset group, the balance would be adjusted based on the fair value of the long-lived assets group in the period such a determination is made. The primary indicator used to determine when impairment testing should be performed is when a contract is materially underperforming, or is expected to materially underperform in the future, as compared to the original bid model or subsequent annual budgets.
	Terminations of outsourcing contracts, including transfer of assets either back to the customer or to another IT provider, prior to the end of their committed contract terms, are infrequent due to the complex transition of personnel, assets, methodologies, and processes involved with outsourcing transactions. In the event of an early termination, the Company and the customer, pursuant to certain contractual provisions, engage in discussions to determine the recovery of unamortized contract costs, lost profits, transfer of personnel, rights to implemented systems and processes, as well as other matters.
Stock-Based Compensation	'		'
			Stock-Based Compensation
			The Company provides different forms of stock-based compensation to its employees and non-employee directors. This includes stock options and restricted stocks units (RSUs), including performance shares units (PSUs). The fair value of the awards is determined on the grant date, based on the Company's closing stock price. For awards settled in shares, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the grant-date fair value net of estimated forfeitures over the vesting period. For awards settled in cash, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the fair value at each reporting date net of estimated forfeitures.
			The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton model in determining the fair value of options granted. The expected term is calculated based on the Company’s historical experience with respect to its stock plan activity in combination with an estimate of when vested and unexercised option shares will be exercised. The expected term of options is based on the two separate job tier classifications, which have distinct historical exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the zero-coupon interest rate of U.S. government issued Treasury strips with a period commensurate with the expected term of the options. Expected volatility is based on a blended approach, which uses an equal weighting of implied volatility and historical volatility. However, beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the historical volatility calculation was based on the Company’s six-year and seven-year historical daily closing price, rather than the ten-year historical used in prior periods, in order to bring this factor more closely into alignment with the expected terms of the stock options. The dividend yield assumption was added concurrent with the introduction of a cash dividend in fiscal 2011 and is based on the respective fiscal year dividend payouts. The Company periodically evaluates its significant assumptions used in the fair value calculation.
Acquisition Accounting and Goodwill	'		'
	Acquisition Accounting and Goodwill
	When the Company acquires a controlling financial interest through a business combination, CSC uses the acquisition method of accounting to allocate the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are recorded at fair value. Any excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, is recognized as goodwill.
	If the initial accounting for an acquisition is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which it occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. During the measurement period - no longer than one year from the date of the acquisition - the Company retroactively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date if CSC obtains new information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have changed the measurement of the amounts originally recognized. Any measurement adjustments to the acquired assets or the assumed liabilities are recorded with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.
	Acquired in-process research and development intangible assets (IPR&D) are initially capitalized at fair value as intangible assets with indefinite lives and are assessed for impairment thereafter. When a specific project within acquired IPR&D is completed, the corresponding amount of acquired IPR&D is reclassified as an amortizable intangible asset and is amortized over the asset's estimated useful life.
	For contingent consideration recorded as a liability, the Company initially measures the amount at fair value as of the acquisition date and adjusts the liability, if needed, to fair value each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, other than measurement period adjustments, are recognized as operating income or expense.
	Acquisition-related expenses costs are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from the acquisition date.
	The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if circumstances change, or if an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining whether an event indicating impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indicators include, among other things: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; unanticipated competition; the disposal of a significant component of a reporting unit; and the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit.
	The goodwill impairment test initially involves the assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is not more likely than not, then the subsequent two-step process is not required. However, the Company has the option to bypass this initial qualitative assessment for its annual test and proceed directly to step one of the two-step process for one or more of its reporting units. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds it fair value, then it proceeds with the subsequent two-step goodwill impairment testing process. The first step is to compare each reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. If the reporting unit’s fair value exceeds its carrying value, no further procedures are required and no impairment is recorded. However, if a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, an impairment of goodwill may exist, requiring a second step to measure the amount of any impairment loss. In the second step, the reporting unit’s fair value is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, for the sole purpose of calculating the implied fair value of goodwill - as if applying the acquisition method of accounting described above to the reporting unit's assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the recorded goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded in operations for the difference.
	When the Company performs step one of the two-step test for a reporting unit, it estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using both the income approach and the market approach. The income approach incorporates the use of a discounted cash flow method in which the estimated future cash flows and terminal values for each reporting unit are discounted to a present value using a discount rate. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of economic and market conditions, which drive key assumptions of revenue growth rates, operating margins, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. The discount rate in turn is based on the specific risk characteristics of each reporting unit, the weighted-average cost of capital and its underlying forecasts. The market approach estimates fair value by applying performance-metric multiples to the reporting unit's prior and expected operating performance. The multiples are derived from comparable publicly traded companies that have operating and investment characteristics similar to those of the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit derived using one approach is significantly different from the fair value estimate using the other approach, the Company reevaluates its assumptions used in the two models. The fair values determined by the market approach and income approach, as described above, are weighted to determine the fair value for each reporting unit. The weighted values assigned to each reporting unit are driven by two primary factors: 1) the number of comparable publicly traded companies used in the market approach, and 2) the similarity of the operating and investment characteristics of the reporting units to the comparable publicly traded companies used in the market approach.
Fair Value	'		'
	Fair Value
	The Company uses the fair value measurement guidance to value certain of its assets and liabilities. Under this guidance, assets and liabilities are required to be valued based on assumptions used by a market participant, consistent with the following hierarchy of inputs:
	Level 1—	Quoted prices unadjusted for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.
	Level 2—	Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for similar assets or liabilities.
	Level 3—	Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions which market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
	The assets and liabilities which are valued using the fair value measurement guidance, on a recurring basis, include the Company’s money market funds and money market deposits, time deposits, short-term investments, pension assets, and foreign currency derivatives comprised of forward and option contracts. The fair value of the forward contracts is based on quoted prices for similar but not identical derivative financial instruments; as such, the inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. Option contracts are valued using inputs which are based on quoted pricing intervals from external valuation models, which do not involve management judgment and as such, these inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. Certain pension assets are valued using model based pricing methods that use observable market data; as such these inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. There were no significant assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs.
Receivables	'		'
	Receivables
	Receivables consist of amounts billed and currently due from customers, amounts earned but unbilled (including contracts measured under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting), amounts retained by the customer until the completion of a specified contract, completion of U.S. federal government audit activities, negotiation of contract modification, and claims.
	Allowances for uncollectible billed trade receivables are estimated based on a combination of write-off history, aging analysis and any specific known collectability issues. Unbilled amounts under contracts in progress that are recoverable do not have an allowance for credit losses. Adjustments to unbilled amounts under contracts in progress related to credit quality, should they occur, would be recorded as a reduction of revenue.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	'		'
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets or groups of assets is assessed based on a comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated future net cash flows. If estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are less than the carrying amount, an expense is recorded in the amount, if any, required to reduce the carrying amount to fair value. Fair value is determined based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, comparable market values. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their fair value less costs to sell.
Income Taxes	'		'
	Income Taxes
	Accounting for income taxes requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company maintains valuation allowances when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the Company’s tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset.
	The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination. Uncertain tax positions are measured based on the probabilities that the uncertain tax position will be realized upon final settlement (see Note 12).
Cash and Cash Equivalents	'		'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consist of time deposits, money market funds and money market deposit accounts with a number of institutions that have high credit ratings.
Foreign Currency	'		'
	Foreign Currency
	The Company has determined that, generally, the local currency of its foreign affiliates is their functional currency. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the foreign affiliates are translated from their respective functional currency to U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates, income and expense accounts are translated at the average rates in effect during the year, and equity accounts are translated at historical rates. The resulting translation adjustment is reported in the Statement of Other Comprehensive Income and recorded as part of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).
	To manage the exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts (see Note 8). The use of these derivative instruments is intended to offset, to the extent possible, the gains and losses from remeasurement of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. Gains and losses from remeasurement of the Company’s foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, and remeasurement and settlement of the related foreign currency derivatives are recorded in other (income) expense.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share	'		'
	Earnings (Loss) Per Share
	Basic earnings (loss) per common share (EPS) are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflect the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and equity awards.
New Accounting Pronouncements and Standards Not Yet Adopted	'		'
	New Accounting Standards
	During fiscal year 2014, the Company adopted the following recent Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs):
	In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 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 2013-11), which clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. An exception to this rule occurs when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position; or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose. For these exceptions, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in ASU 2013-11 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments in ASU No. 2013-11 are consistent with CSC's existing practices and adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material effect on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.
	In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): “Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity” (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 resolves the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, "Consolidation - Overall," or Subtopic 830-30, "Foreign Currency Matters - Translation of Financial Statements," applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part of or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 stipulates that when a parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in such an entity, the parent should apply Subtopic 830-30 and release the cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. ASU 2013-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments in this ASU are consistent with CSC's existing practices and adoption of ASU 2013-05 did not have a material effect on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.
	In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”), which requires entities to disclose the effect of significant reclassifications out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the respective line items in net income unless the amounts are not reclassified in their entirety to net income. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, entities are required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the amendments of this update during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and included additional disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 15).
	In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”), which was subsequently amended in January 2013 when the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01 “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” Together, these ASUs provide guidance on disclosure of information pertaining to the offsetting (netting) of assets and liabilities in the financial statements. The amendments in these ASUs affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that either (1) offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45 or (2) are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. ASU 2011-11 amends the existing disclosure requirements on offsetting in ASC 210-20-50 by requiring disclosures relating to gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities, the amounts that are offset, net amounts presented in the balance sheet, and amounts subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in these ASUs became effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the ASUs during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and included additional disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 8).
	Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective
	The following ASUs were recently issued but have not yet been adopted by CSC:
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 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 2014-08”), which changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20 “Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations.” The ASU changes the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Under current U.S. GAAP, many disposals, some of which may be routine in nature and not representative of a substantive change in an entity’s strategy, are reported in discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures for discontinued operations designed to provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows related to discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 also requires an entity to disclose the pretax profit or loss (or change in net assets for a not-for-profit entity) of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in ASU 2014-08 are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. CSC is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-08 may have on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.
	In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-05, "Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853) (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2014-05”). ASU 2014-05 provides guidance on the accounting for service concession arrangements, which are arrangements between a public-sector entity grantor and an operating entity under which the operating entity operates the grantor’s infrastructure (e.g. airports, roads, or bridges). The operating entity also may provide the construction, upgrading, or maintenance services of the grantor’s infrastructure. ASU 2014-05 specifies that an operating entity should not account for a service concession arrangement that is within the scope of this ASU as a lease in accordance with Topic 840, "Leases." ASU 2014-05 also specifies that the infrastructure used in a service concession arrangement should not be recognized as property, plant, and equipment of the operating entity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. For CSC, ASU 2014-05 will be effective beginning in fiscal 2016. CSC is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting the ASU on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.
	In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date” (“ASU 2013-04”). ASU 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in ASU 2013-04 also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendments in ASU 2013-04 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. CSC will be required to adopt the amendments in this ASU beginning in fiscal 2015. CSC is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2013-04 may have on CSC's Consolidated Financial Statements.
