NOTE

- INVENTORIES

LIFO inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and all other inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Replacement cost approximates current cost and the excess over LIFO cost is approximately

$64.6

million and

$63.7

million at

March 31, 2019

and

December 

31,

2018,

respectively. Allowances for excess and obsolete inventory totaled

$5.2

million and

$5.3

million at

March 31, 2019

and

December 

31,

2018,

respectively. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of expected year-end inventory levels and costs, and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Inventories are comprised of the following:

Inventories, net:		March 31, 2019				December 31, 2018
Raw materials and in-process		$	21,242			$	21,773
Finished parts			52,809				54,209
Finished products			11,308				11,405
Total net inventories		$	85,359			$	87,387
