The inventories of the manufacturing sites in Michigan are valued using the last-in, first-out method (LIFO). The inventories of all other subsidiaries are valued using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories valued using LIFO amounted to $22.3 million and $20.5 million as of May 30, 2015 and May 31, 2014, respectively. If all inventories had been valued using the first-in first-out method, inventories would have been $142.1 million and $89.6 million at May 30, 2015 and May 31, 2014, respectively.

During 2014, a reduction in inventory quantities resulted in a liquidation of applicable LIFO inventory quantities carried at lower costs in prior years. This LIFO liquidation decreased cost of goods sold by a negligible amount in 2014.
