NOTE 3 – Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  The cost of the majority of inventories is measured on the last in, first out (LIFO) method.  Other inventories are measured principally at average cost.

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, 35% and 39% of total inventories, respectively, were valued on a last in, first out (LIFO) basis. If valued on an average-cost basis, total inventories would have been $851 and $1,078 higher at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. During the 2009 third quarter, reductions in LIFO inventory quantities caused a partial liquidation of the lower cost LIFO inventory base. This liquidation resulted in the recognition of income of $112 ($73 after-tax).

Total inventories, net$ 737.3  $ 887.6 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out (“LIFO”), first-in, first-out (“FIFO”), and average cost methods) or market, less progress payments. Most of the Company’s inventory is valued utilizing the LIFO costing methodology. Inventory of the Company’s non-U.S. operations is valued using average cost or FIFO methods. The effect of using the LIFO methodology to value inventory, rather than FIFO, decreased cost of sales by $59.0 million for the nine first months of 2009 compared to a decrease to cost of sales of $36.3 million for the first nine months of 2008.

Includes deferred production costs related to the 777 program of $612 and $1,223 and unamortized tooling related to the 777 program of $208 and $255 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. Also includes work in process (including deferred production costs), supplier advances, and tooling and other non-recurring costs related to the 787 program of $2,828, $2,181 and $996 as of September 30, 2009 and $3,021, $2,548 and $755 as of December 31, 2008.

In August 2009, we concluded that the first three flight-test airplanes for the 787 program will not be sold as previously anticipated due to the inordinate amount of rework and unique and extensive modifications made to those aircraft. Therefore, $2,481 in costs previously recorded for the first three flight-test airplanes were reclassified from program inventory to Research and development expense during the third quarter of 2009. Costs incurred in August and September 2009 of $138 related to these flight-test airplanes were also included in research and development expense.

Delta launch program inventories that will be sold at cost to United Launch Alliance (ULA) under an inventory supply agreement that terminates on March 31, 2021 are included in long-term contracts in progress inventories. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the inventory balance was $1,827 and $1,822, of which $1,119 relates to yet unsold launches at September 30, 2009. ULA is continuing to assess the future of the Delta II program. In the event ULA is unable to sell additional Delta II inventory, earnings could be reduced by up to $85. See Note 8.

Inventories included $235 subject to claims or other uncertainties relating to the A-12 program as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. See Note 14.

Note 8.   Inventories
 
Inventories of $28,148 as of September 30, 2009 included raw materials of $8,296 and work-in-process and finished goods of $19,852. As of December 31, 2008, inventories of $27,973 included raw materials of $9,730 and work-in-process and finished goods of $18,243. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company reviewed and updated its inventory standards to reflect the Company’s current cost structure and production capacity, and recorded an increase of $2,860 in its work-in-process inventory values as a result of this analysis. Management will continue to update its inventory standards on a periodic basis going forward.

Inventory quantities have been further reduced during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.  This reduction resulted in a liquidation of LIFO inventory layers carried at lower costs prevailing in prior years as compared with current costs.  The effect of this reduction of inventory that is not expected to be replaced by the end of 2009 decreased Cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Results of Operations by approximately $120 million and increased Profit by approximately $100 million or $0.16 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, LIFO liquidations decreased Cost of goods sold by approximately $230 million and increased Profit by approximately $185 million or $0.30 per share.  Additional LIFO liquidations may occur during the fourth quarter of 2009.

NOTE 7 - INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the cost of $9.3 million, or 3.0%, and $9.6 million, or 3.1%, respectively, of inventories was determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. The cost of other inventories was determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost methods. The Company establishes reserves for inventory estimated to be obsolete or unmarketable equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  The inventory valuation reserves were $32.7 million and $28.4 million as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

If the FIFO method had been used to determine the cost of LIFO inventories, the amounts at which net inventories are stated would be higher than reported at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 by $3.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

At September 30, 2009 our inventory balance was $278 million, a decline of $149 million compared to our balance at December 31, 2008. This decline primarily related to the impact of our sales and marketing promotions and reduced churn during the third quarter of 2009.

    639.4       162.4  
      Total inventory
  $ 1,147.5     $ 362.8  
                 
(1)  Working inventory is comprised of inventories of natural gas, NGLs and certain petrochemical products that are either available-for-sale or used in providing services.
(2)  Forward sales inventory consists of identified NGL and natural gas volumes dedicated to the fulfillment of forward sales contracts. As a result of energy market conditions, we significantly increased our physical inventory purchases and related forward physical sales commitments during 2009. In general, the significant increase in volumes dedicated to forward physical sales contracts improves the overall utilization and profitability of our fee-based assets.
 

Our inventory values reflect payments for product purchases, freight charges associated with such purchase volumes, terminal and storage fees, vessel inspection costs, demurrage charges and other related costs.  Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or market.
 
Operating costs and expenses, as presented on our Unaudited Condensed Statements of Consolidated Operations, include cost of sales amounts related to the sale of inventories.  Our costs of sales amounts were $3.72 billion and $5.47 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, our costs of sales amounts were $9.05 billion and $15.88 billion, respectively.  The decrease in cost of sales period-to-period is primarily due to lower energy commodity prices associated with our marketing activities.

Due to fluctuating commodity prices, we recognize lower of average cost or market (“LCM”) adjustments when the carrying value of our available-for-sale inventories exceed their net realizable value.  These non-cash charges are a component of cost of sales in the period they are recognized, and reflected in operating costs and expenses as presented on our Unaudited Condensed Statements of Consolidated Operations.  LCM adjustments may be mitigated or offset through the use of commodity hedging instruments to the extent such instruments affect net realizable value.  See Note 4 for a description of our commodity hedging activities.  For the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, we recognized LCM adjustments of $0.4 million and $36.5 million, respectively.  We recognized LCM adjustments of $6.4 million and $41.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
