Inventories valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis totaled $4,879 million and $3,331 million at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. We performed a lower-of-cost-or-market evaluation for our crude oil and petroleum products inventory at March 31, 2020, and determined that a write-down was not required based on forward prices. Should crude oil and petroleum product forward prices have a sustained decline, a future lower-of-cost-or-market write‑down may be required.
