The Scent gross margin on
sales, plus 3 cents on services and
other income, resulted in a total
gross income equal to Il cents per
dollar sales, according to the spe-
cialist. After deducting expenses,
which amounted to 9 cents, the
average net income was a little less
than 3 cents for each dollar OF
sales.
Total sales of the 100 elevators,
Miner reports, varied from less
than $350,000 to more than 81, ,5OO,-
600 a year. In general, the larger
elevators had smaller expenses per
dollar of sales and charged a small
Ter gross margin. Net income pei
dollar of sales averaged about the
same of all groups, regardless OF
size.
1t required an average of q
cents of total assets to sell dol.
lars worth of merchandise. Total
assets averaged S171, ,067, of which
70 percent was net worth and the
remaining 30 percent borrowed
capital.
Ohio farmers now receive 81 per.
cent of their cash receipts from the
sale of grain. Last year grain sales
in Ohio totaled $257, 100000 Most
farm sales of grain are made tc
Ohio's 804 country elevators.

Grain Elevators
In Country Have
Smaller Marqins

COLUMBUS - Country grain
elevators buy and sell grain on a
small gross margin compared to
margins required by many other
types of business. says Ross Mil
ner, Ohio State University Exten-
sion grain marketing specialist.
Miner cites an analysis of 10C
Ohio elevators showing that they
are operating on a Scent gross
margin per dollar of total sales
Margins on grain itself are still
smaller, he says, while those on
lumber, feed, machinery and other
farm supplies are larger.
