Inventories | Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method for most inventories and first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method for all other inventories. The company establishes a reserve for excess, slow-moving, and obsolete inventory that is equal to the difference between the cost and estimated net realizable value for that inventory. These reserves are based on a review and comparison of current inventory levels to the planned production, as well as planned and historical sales of the inventory. Inventories were as follows:
|  | May 1, |  | May 2, |  | October 31, |

Finished goods and service parts |  | 291,484 |  | 273,920 |  | 246,954 |
Total FIFO value |  | 408,935 |  | 367,852 |  | 342,098 |
