RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

We implemented various cost reduction initiatives to improve our operating cost structures in the periods presented. These cost initiatives have, among other actions, included workforce reductions and the closure or consolidation of certain operations. Except for the 2018 Restructuring Plan discussed below, none of these initiatives has individually resulted in a material charge to earnings.

In December 2018, we committed to a restructuring plan primarily associated with our Home Furniture Group and Fashion Bed business, both of which report within the Furniture Products segment.

Our Home Furniture Group (which produces furniture components for the upholstered furniture industry) and Fashion Bed business (which supplies ornamental beds, bed frames and other accessories sold to retailers) have underperformed expectations primarily from weaker demand and higher raw material costs. Accordingly, we are exiting low margin business, reducing operating costs and eliminating excess capacity in our Home Furniture business which should be substantially complete by the end of the second quarter 2019. In late March, we announced the closure of the Fashion Bed business which should be substantially complete by the end of the third quarter 2019.

We previously disclosed costs for these activities would approximate $33.0. This estimate remains materially unchanged. To date we have incurred $22.6 of costs, and we expect to incur $10.4 during the remainder of the year. The following table presents information associated with this plan:

We test other long-lived assets for recoverability at year end and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Fair value and the resulting impairment charges noted above were based primarily upon offers from potential buyers or third party estimates of fair value less selling costs and estimated future cash flows.
