Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms Best Buy, we, us and our in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements refers to Best Buy Co.,Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. All adjustments were comprised of normal recurring adjustments, except as noted in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Historically, we have realized more of our revenue and earnings in the fiscal fourth quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday shopping season in the U.S., Europe and Canada, than in any other fiscal quarter. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year. The interim financial statements and the related notes in this Quarterly Report on Form10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended February28, 2009. We consolidate the financial results of our Europe, China and Mexico operations on a two-month lag. There were no significant intervening events that would have materially affected our consolidated financial statements had they been recorded during the three months ended August29, 2009. In preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we evaluated the period from August30, 2009 through October6, 2009, the date the financial statements herein were available to be issued, for material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure. No such events were identified for this period. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications To maintain consistency and comparability, we reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current-year presentation as described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended February28, 2009. To conform to the current-year presentation, which presents customer relationships separately on our consolidated balance sheets, we reclassified to customer relationships, $488 at August30, 2008, which was previously reported in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, as a result of the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No.51, as described below in New Accounting Standards, we: reclassified to noncontrolling interests, a component of shareholders equity, $513 and $725 at February28, 2009, and August30, 2008, respectively, which was previously reported as minority interests on our condensed consolidated balance sheets; reported as separate captions within our consolidated statements of earnings, net earnings including noncontrolling interests, net (earnings) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, and net earnings attributable to Best Buy Co.,Inc. of $205, $(3)and $202, respectively, for the three months ended August30, 2008, and $383, $(2)and $381, respectively, for the six months ended August30, 2008; and utilized net earnings including noncontrolling interests of $383 for the six months ended August30, 2008, as the starting point on our consolidated statements of cash flows in order to reconcile net earnings to cash flows from operating activities, rather than beginning with net earnings, which was previously exclusive of noncontrolling interests. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported consolidated operating income, net earnings attributable to Best Buy Co.,Inc., or net cash flows from operating activities. Also, earnings per share continues to be based on net earnings attributable to Best Buy Co.,Inc. |
New Accounting Standards | New Accounting Standards In June2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This standard replaces SFAS No.162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes only two levels of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) became the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rulesand interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification became nonauthoritative. This standard is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September15, 2009. We have begun to use the new guidelines and numbering system prescribed by the Codification when referring to GAAP in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. As the Codification was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, it will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In June2009, the FASB issued SFAS No.167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No.46(R). This standard responds to concerns about the application of certain key provisions of FASB Interpretation (FIN) 46(R), including those regarding the transparency of the involvement with variable interest entities.Specifically, SFAS No.167 requires a qualitative approach to identifying a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) and requires ongoing assessment of whether an entity is a VIE and whether an interest in a VIE makes the holder the primary beneficiary of the VIE. In addition, the standard requires additional disclosures about the involvement with a VIE and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. SFAS No.167 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November15, 2009. We plan to adopt SFAS No.167 in fiscal 2011 and are evaluating the impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements. In June2009, the FASB issued SFAS No.166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No.140. The new standard eliminates the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity, changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entitys continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. SFAS No.166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November15, 2009. We plan to adopt SFAS No.166 in fiscal 2011 and are evaluating the impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements. In May2009, the FASB issued SFAS No.165, Subsequent Events. This standard is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet |

Acquisitions | 2. Acquisitions Five Star We acquired a 75% interest in Jiangsu Five Star Appliance Co., Ltd. (Five Star) in June2006, for $184, which included a working capital injection of $122. At the time of the acquisition, we also entered into an agreement with Five Stars minority shareholders to acquire the remaining 25% interest in Five Star within four years, subject to Chinese government approval. On February6, 2009, we were granted a business license to acquire the remaining 25% interest in Five Star and our acquisition converted Five Star into a wholly-owned foreign enterprise. The $191 purchase price for the remaining 25% interest was primarily based on a previously agreed-upon pricing formula, consisting of a base purchase price and an earn-out for the remaining Five Star shareholders. The amount paid in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired, as agreed to at the time of the initial purchase, furthers our international growth plans and accelerates the integration of Best Buy and Five Star in China. The acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in Five Star for $191 was accounted for using the purchase method in accordance with SFAS No.141, Business Combinations. We recorded the net assets acquired at their estimated fair values. We included Five Stars operating results, which are reported on a two-month lag, from the date of acquisition as part of our International segment. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and will be finalized no later than the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The preliminary purchase price allocation was as follows: Net assets of noncontrolling interests $ 48 Tradenames 8 Goodwill 137 Total assets 193 Long-term liabilities (2 ) Purchase price allocated to assets and liabilities acquired $ 191 Napster On October25, 2008, we acquired Napster,Inc. (Napster) for $121 (or $100 net of cash acquired), pursuant to a cash tender offer whereby all issued and outstanding shares of Napster common stock, and all stock purchase rights associated with such shares, were acquired by us at a price of $2.65 per share. Of the $121 purchase price, $4 represented our previous ownership interest in Napster common shares. The effective acquisition date for accounting purposes was the close of business on October31, 2008, the end of Napsters fiscal October. We entered into this transaction as we believe Napster has one of the most comprehensive and easy-to-use digital music offerings in the industry. The amount we paid in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired was to obtain Napsters capabilities and digital subscriber base to reach new customers with an enhanced experience for exploring and selecting music and other digital entertainment products over an increasing array of devices, such as bundling the sale of hardware with digital services. We believe the combined capabilities of our two companies allows us to build stronger relationships with customers and expand the number of subscribers. We have consolidated Napster in our financial results as part of our Domes |

Investments | 3. Investments Investments were comprised of the following: August29, 2009 February28, 2009 August30, 2008 Short-term investments Money market fund $ 4 $ 8 $ Debt securities (auction-rate securities) 89 Other investments 3 Total short-term investments $ 93 $ 11 $ Equity and other investments Debt securities (auction-rate securities) $ 209 $ 314 $ 354 Marketable equity securities 78 41 101 Other investments 47 40 46 Total equity and other investments $ 334 $ 395 $ 501 Debt Securities Our debt securities are comprised of auction-rate securities (ARS). We classify our investments in ARS as available-for-sale and carry them at fair value. ARS were intended to behave like short-term debt instruments because their interest rates reset periodically through an auction process, most commonly at intervals of 7, 28 and 35 days. The auction process had historically provided a means by which we could rollover the investment or sell these securities at par in order to provide us with liquidity as needed. In mid-February2008, auctions began to fail due to insufficient buyers, as the amount of securities submitted for sale in auctions exceeded the aggregate amount of the bids. For each failed auction, the interest rate on the security moves to a maximum rate specified for each security, and generally resets at a level higher than specified short-term interest rate benchmarks. To date, we have collected all interest due on our ARS and expect to continue to do so in the future. We sold $22 of ARS at par during the first six months of fiscal 2010. However, at August29, 2009, our entire remaining ARS portfolio, consisting of 51 investments in ARS, was subject to failed auctions. Subsequent to August29, 2009, and through October6, 2009, we sold $6 (par value) of our ARS. As a result of the persistent failed auctions, and the uncertainty of when these investments could be liquidated at par, we have classified all of our investments in ARS as non-current assets within equity and other investments in our consolidated balance sheet at August29, 2009, except for $89, which was marketed and sold by UBS AG and its affiliates (collectively, UBS) and is classified within short-term investments. In October2008, we accepted a settlement with UBS pursuant to which UBS issued to us SeriesC-2 Auction Rate Securities Rights (ARS Rights). The ARS Rights provide us the right to receive the full par value of our UBS-brokered ARS of $89 plus accrued but unpaid interest at any time between June30, 2010, and July2, 2012. We plan to exercise our ARS Rights in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Our ARS portfolio consisted of the following at August29, 2009, February28, 2009, and August30, 2008, at fair value: Description Natureofcollateralorguarantee August29,2009 February28, 2009 August30,2008 Student loan bonds Student loans guaranteed 95% to 100% by the U.S. government $ 278 $ 276 $ 295 Municipal revenue bonds 10 |

Fair Value Measurements | |
Fair Value Measurements | 4. Fair Value Measurements We adopted SFAS No.157, Fair Value Measurements, on March2, 2008. This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. SFAS No.157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS No.157 also establishes a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 Significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize managements estimates of market participant assumptions. Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability. The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at August29, 2009, February28, 2009, and August30, 2008, according to the valuation techniques we used to determine their fair values.

Restructuring Charges | 6. Restructuring Charges In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we implemented a restructuring plan for our domestic and international businesses to support our fiscal 2010 strategy and long-term growth plans. We believe these changes will provide an operating structure that will support a more effective and efficient use of our resources and provide a platform from which key strategic initiatives can progress despite changing economic conditions. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we recorded charges of $78, related primarily to voluntary and involuntary separation plans at our corporate headquarters. In April2009, we notified our U.S. Best Buy store employees of our intention to update our store operating model, which included eliminating certain positions. In addition, we incurred restructuring charges related to employee termination benefits and business reorganization costs at Best Buy Europe within our International segment. As a result of our restructuring efforts, we recorded charges of $52 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. No restructuring charges were recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, and we believe we are substantially complete with our announced restructuring activities. All charges related to our restructuring plans were presented as restructuring charges in our consolidated statements of earnings.

Debt | 7. Debt Short-Term Debt Short-term debt consisted of the following: August29, 2009 February28, 2009 August30, 2008 JPMorgan credit facility $ 325 $ 162 $ 1,173 Europe receivables financing agreement Europe revolving credit facility 730 584 299 Canada revolving demand facility 2 China revolving demand facilities 36 35 43 Total short-term debt $ 1,091 $ 783 $ 1,515 Europe Receivables Financing Agreement In the second quarter of fiscal 2010, a subsidiary of Best Buy Europe (the Subsidiary) entered into a 350 (or $573) receivables financing agreement (the Agreement) with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent, and a syndication of banks to finance the working capital needs of Best Buy Europe. The Agreement is secured by certain network carrier receivables of the Subsidiary. Availability on the facility is based on a percentage of the available acceptable receivables, as defined in the Agreement. Although no amount was outstanding under the Agreement at August29, 2009, in September2009, we drew the full amount available of 245 (or $401) on the Agreement. The Agreement expires on July3, 2012. Interest rates under the Agreement are variable, based on the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a margin of 3.00%, with a commitment fee of 1.5% on unused available capacity. The Agreement also required an initial commitment fee of 2.75%. The Agreement is not guaranteed by Best Buy Co.,Inc., or any subsidiary nor does it provide for any recourse to Best Buy Co.,Inc. The Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. Among other things, these covenants restrict or prohibit the Subsidiarys ability to incur certain types or amounts of indebtedness, incur additional encumbrances on its receivables, make material changes in the nature of its business, dispose of material assets, make guarantees, or engage in a change in control transaction. The Agreement also contains covenants that require the Subsidiary to comply with a maximum annual leverage ratio, a minimum annual interest coverage ratio and a minimum fixed charges coverage ratio. Europe Revolving Credit Facility In connection with a 475 (or $777) revolving credit facility available to Best Buy Europe with CPW as lender, Best Buy Co.,Inc. is named as guarantor, up to 50% of the amount outstanding. Concurrent with entering into the Agreement described above, we amended the revolving credit facility to decrease the amount available under the revolving credit facility by the amount available under the Agreement. The related guarantee by Best Buy Co.,Inc. was similarly reduced. The revolving credit facility expires in March2013. Long-Term Debt Long-term debt consisted of the following: August29, 2009 February28, 2009 August30, 2008 6.75% notes $ 500 $ 500 $ 500 Convertible debentures 402 402 402 Financing lease obligations 195 200 198 Capital lease obligations 55 65 63 Other debt 4 13 12 Total lon |

Derivative Instruments | 8. Derivative Instruments We manage our economic and transaction exposure to certain market-based risks through the use of derivative instruments. Under this strategy, foreign currency exchange contracts are utilized to manage foreign currency exposure to certain forecasted inventory purchases, revenue streams and net investments in certain foreign operations. Our primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows as well as net asset values associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We record all derivatives on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and evaluate hedge effectiveness prospectively and retrospectively. We formally document all hedging relationships at inception for all derivative hedges and the underlying hedged items, as well as the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions. Our strategy employs both cash flow and net investment hedges. We classify the cash flows from derivatives treated as hedges in our consolidated statement of cash flows in the same category as the item being hedged. In addition, we have derivatives which are not designated as hedging instruments. We have no derivatives that have credit-risk-related contingent features, and we mitigate our credit risk by engaging with major financial institutions as our counterparties. Cash Flow Hedges We enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on certain revenue streams denominated in non-functional currencies. The contracts have terms of up to three years. We report the effective portion of the gain or loss on a cash flow hedge as a component of other comprehensive income and it is subsequently reclassified into net earnings in the period in which the hedged transaction affects net earnings or the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring. We report the ineffective portion, if any, of the gain or loss in net earnings. Net Investment Hedges We also enter into foreign currency exchange swap contracts to hedge against the effect of euro and swiss franc exchange rate fluctuations on net investments of certain foreign operations. For a net investment hedge, we recognize changes in the fair value of the derivative as a component of foreign currency translation within other comprehensive income to offset a portion of the change in the translated value of the net investment being hedged, until the investment is sold or liquidated. We limit recognition in net earnings of amounts previously recorded in cumulative translation of other comprehensive income to circumstances such as complete or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the hedged foreign operation. We report the ineffective portion, if any, of the gain or loss in net earnings. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments include forward currency exchange contracts used to manage the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchan |

Earnings per Share | 9. Earnings per Share Our basic earnings per share calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Our diluted earnings per share calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include stock options, nonvested share awards and shares issuable under our employee stock purchase plan, as well as common shares that would have resulted from the assumed conversion of our convertible debentures. Since the potentially dilutive shares related to the convertible debentures are included in the calculation, the related interest expense, net of tax, is added back to net earnings, as the interest would not have been paid if the convertible debentures had been converted to common stock. Nonvested market-based awards and nonvested performance-based awards are included in the average diluted shares outstanding each period if established market or performance criteria have been met at the end of the respective periods. The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Best Buy Co.,Inc.

These amounts were excluded as the options exercise prices were greater than the average market price of our common stock for the periods presented and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive (i.e., including such options would result in higher earnings per share). |

Segments | 11. Segments We have organized our operations into two segments: Domestic and International. These segments are our primary areas of measurement and decision-making. The Domestic reportable segment is comprised of all operations within the U.S. and its territories. The International reportable segment is comprised of all operations outside the U.S. and its territories. We rely on an internal management reporting process that provides segment information to the operating income level for purposes of assessing performance and allocating resources. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended February28, 2009.
