Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	NOTE C – Impairment of Long-Lived Assets We review the carrying value of our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite useful lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Impairment testing of long-lived assets with definite useful lives involves a comparison of the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group to its respective carrying amount. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists. If the carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows, then a second step is performed to determine the amount of impairment, which would be recorded as an impairment charge in our consolidated statement of earnings. No impairment charges were recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, management finalized its plan to close the Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina and transfer the majority of the business to the Engineered Cabs facility in Greeneville, Tennessee. Under the plan, certain machinery and equipment was transferred to the Greeneville facility to support higher volume requirements. Management reevaluated the recoverability of the remaining assets and determined that long-lived assets with a carrying value of $4,059,000 were impaired. As a result, these long-lived assets were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,059,000 resulting in an impairment charge of $3,000,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company ceased production at the Florence facility on September 30, 2015.
