Inventory Disclosure [Abstract] |
Inventory | Note B – Inventory Due to a decline in steel pricing during the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the net realizable value of our inventory was lower than the cost reflected in our records at August 31, 2022. Accordingly, we recorded a lower of cost or net realizable value adjustment during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 totaling $4,488,000 to reflect this lower value. The entire amount of the adjustment was attributed to our Steel Processing operating segment and was recorded in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of earnings for the three months ended August 31, 2022. There was no lower of cost or net realizable value adjustment to inventory during either of the three months ended November 30, 2022 or the three months ended February 28, 2023.
