If the first-in, first-out method of inventory had been used instead of the LIFO method, inventories would have been $222.4 million and $279.8 million higher as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Current cost of LIFO-valued inventories was $708.3 million at June 30, 2013 and $759.7 million at June 30, 2012.  The reductions in LIFO-valued inventories decreased cost of sales by $2.1 million during fiscal year 2013, $0 million during fiscal year 2012, and $1.7 million during fiscal year 2011.
