dollars. Many folks read those , p R-o,gt
reports and say-"No wonder
meat is so high. Livestock producers must be
coming money"
That is a thoughtless comment, based on mis-
understanding. That II billion dollars IS not profit
it is gross income. Many expenses must come
out of your gross livestock income before you can
make any profit on it. There's the cost of breeding
stock and feeding stock :. of your hired labor
of feed, machinery, equipment. All these costs are
at all-time high levels. Out of your gross income
also must come property and income taxes, inter
est; insurance premiums; repairs; new buildings;
fences; death losses, etc. After you've paid all
those necessary business expenses, you're lucky II
you end up with 10 or Is per cent profit.
A lot of people are just as wrong about SWltts
profit as they are about yours. They look at our
total sales of IN billion dollars last year and say.
That's a barrel of money. No wonder meat IS
hight" But the fact is that competition IN both
buying and selling is so keen that from those IN
billion sales dollars an average of 79s went to pay
you for your livestock. 10g for pay to our en-
ployes. 6zf for supplies and other necessary
business costs. 81 for taxes and transportation
All we had left as earnings was 1zs.
Yes, in our business, as in yours, there's a big
difference between gross income and net profit!
