Inventory Disclosure [Abstract]

INVENTORIES

6. INVENTORIES

In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance on simplifying the measurement of inventory. The guidance, which applies to inventory that is measured using any method other than the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) or retail inventory method, requires that entities measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance prospectively in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Inventories, priced at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value, are summarized below (in thousands):

		July 31, ‎2018				October 31, ‎2017
Purchased parts and sub-assemblies		$	41,399			$	33,045
Work-in-process			23,456				20,008
Finished goods			71,076				66,895
		$	135,931			$	119,948
