Work in process inventory includes unfinished jet fuel, isooctane, isooctene and isobutanol inventory. Prior to 2016, finished isobutanol located at our Agri-Energy Facility was classified within Work in process – Agri-Energy given the majority of our isobutanol production was being used as feedstock to produce hydrocarbons such as jet fuel, isooctane and isooctene. During 2016, the Company chose to classify isobutanol as a component of finished goods due to the increased production of isbutanol at our Agri-Energy Facility and the positive market development and customer demand for isobutanol being sold directly into the market as a gasoline blendstock.
