$ 3,958 $ 3,446
Inventories valued at LIFO amounted to $248 and $211 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Had such LIFO inventories been valued
at current costs, their carrying values would have been approximately $154 and $161 million higher at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the quantity of inventory valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method in our Specialty Materials
segment declined. This reduction resulted in a liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities carried at lower costs prevailing in prior years as compared with the
cost of 2009 purchases, the effect of which decreased cost of products sold by $12 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.
