These FIFO values have been reduced by approximately $90,505 and $88,094 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, to arrive at the LIFO value reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining inventories have been valued under the FIFO method. All LIFO inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.
