Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out (LIFO), first-in, first-out (FIFO), and average cost methods) or market. Most of the Company’s inventory is valued utilizing the LIFO costing methodology. Inventory of the Company’s non-U.S. operations is valued using average cost or FIFO methods. Due to deflationary impacts primarily related to raw materials, the carrying value of the Company’s inventory as valued on LIFO exceeds current replacement cost, and based on a lower of cost or market value analysis, the Company maintains NRV inventory valuation reserves to adjust carrying value of LIFO inventory to current replacement cost. These NRV reserves were $13.9 million at June 30, 2019 and $8.0 million at December 31, 2018. Impacts to cost of sales for changes in the LIFO costing methodology and associated NRV inventory reserves were as follows (in millions):
|  | Six months ended June 30,
|  | 2019 |  | 2018
LIFO benefit (charge) |  | $ | 5.8 |  |  | $ | (27.5 | )
NRV benefit (charge) |  | (5.9 | ) |  | 27.5 |
Net cost of sales impact |  | $ | (0.1 | ) |  | $ | — |
ATI’s overall LIFO inventory valuation reserves also increased by $5.2 million at June 30, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 due to the sale of the industrial forgings business, which used the LIFO costing methodology and maintained a LIFO valuation below current replacement cost.
