Inventories (Note 3):
Inventory Disclosure Text Block	3. The Company implemented the Last-In, First-Out (“LIFO”) inventory valuation method during fiscal 2008. First-In, First-Out (“FIFO”) based inventory costs exceeded LIFO based inventory costs by $96.4 million as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $93.6 million as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The LIFO Reserve increased by $6,527,000 in the first three months of fiscal 2012 compared to a decrease of $4,132,000 in the first three months of fiscal 2011. This reflects the projected impact of increased inflationary cost increases expected in fiscal 2012 versus fiscal 2011.

This element represents the complete disclosure related to inventory. This may include, but is not limited to, the basis of stating inventory, the method of determining inventory cost, the major classes of inventory, and the nature of the cost elements included in inventory. If inventory is stated above cost, accrued net losses on firm purchase commitments for inventory and losses resulting from valuing inventory at the lower-of-cost-or-market may also be included. For LIFO inventory, may disclose the amount and basis for determining the excess of replacement or current cost over stated LIFO value and the effects of a LIFO quantities liquidation that impacts net income.
