Problem 1 LIFO TO FIFO:

Most inventories owned by Deere & Company and its United States equipment subsidiaries are valued at cost, on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis. Remaining inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost, on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis, or market. The value of gross inventories on the LIFO basis represented 58 percent and 60 percent of worldwide gross inventories at FIFO value on October 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. If all inventories had been valued on a FIFO basis, estimated inventories by major classification at October 31 in millions of dollars would have been as follows:

2007 2006

Raw materials and supplies ........................................... $ 882 $ 712

Work-in-process ........................................................... 425 372

Finished machines and parts ......................................... 2,263 2,013

Total FIFO value ........................................................ 3,570 3,097

Less adjustment to LIFO value ....................................... 1,233 1,140

Inventories ................................................................. $2,337 $1,957
