Inventory Disclosure [Abstract]

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories valued at LIFO cost represented 68% and 67% of total inventory at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  The excess of current cost over LIFO valued inventories was approximately $8,123,000 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time.  Accordingly, interim LIFO must necessarily be based, to some extent, on management's estimates at each quarter end. Net inventories consist of the following:

(in thousands)	June 30, 2017					December 31, 2016
Finished goods		$	132,238				$	116,667
Work in process		8,940					9,431
Raw materials		11,972					9,662
Total inventory		$	153,150				$	135,760

Inventory obsolescence reserves were $7,074,000 at June 30, 2017 and $7,262,000 at December 31, 2016.
