Inventory related to Trex Residential composite decking and railing products is stated at the lower of LIFO cost or market. The Company periodically reviews its inventory for slow moving or obsolete items and writes down the related products to estimated market. Under the LIFO method, reductions in inventory cause a portion of the Company’s cost of sales to be based on historical costs rather than current year costs. There was no material inventory reduction during 2019 or 2018. Inventories valued at lower of cost (FIFO method) and net realizable value as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, consist of $1.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively, of raw materials. The Company utilizes the FIFO method of accounting related to its Trex Commercial products.
