Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 27, 2006, Mohawk Industries, Inc. announced a change in the method of accounting for its inventory from the last-in, first out ("LIFO") method to the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method for inventories not on FIFO within its Mohawk segment. The Company believes the FIFO method of accounting for inventory costs is preferable because it provides a better measure of the current value of its inventory and provides a better matching of manufacturing costs with revenues. The change will also result in the application of a single costing method to all of the Company's inventories. As a result, all inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a FIFO basis, or market. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections," the Company has retrospectively applied this change in method of inventory costing. A copy of the consolidated supplemental financial data affected by the retrospective application is attached hereto and is hereby incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.1
