Profits and Prices
Profits may be considered
from two angles:
1st Their effect on prices;
2nd As a return to investors.
When profits are small as
compared with sales, they have
little effect on prices.
Swift & Company's profits
are only a fraction of a cent
per pound on all products sold,
and if eliminated entirely
would have practically no
effect on prices.
Swift & Company paid 10
per cent dividends to over 20,000
stockholders out of its 1917
profits. It also had to build
extensions and improvements
out of profits; to finance large
stocks of goods made necessary
by unprecedented requirements
of the United States and Allied
Governments; and to provide
protection against the day of
declining markets.
Is it fair to call this
profiteering ?
