Inventory Disclosure [Abstract] |
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 a majority of the company's inventories and the 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:
(Dollars in thousands) |  | August 3, 2018 |  | August 4, 2017 |  | October 31, 2017
Raw materials and work in process |  | $ | 105,239 |  |  | $ | 88,440 |  |  | $ | 100,077 |
Finished goods and service parts |  | 326,059 |  |  | 318,940 |  |  | 295,716 |
Total FIFO value |  | 431,298 |  |  | 407,380 |  |  | 395,793 |
Less: adjustment to LIFO value |  | 66,801 |  |  | 58,358 |  |  | 66,801 |
Total inventories, net |  | $ | 364,497 |  |  | $ | 349,022 |  |  | $ | 328,992 |
