MONEY AT WORK | Brief but Important Lessons fa Fisauce, Ma ts, Stocks, Boads and Investments BUSINESSES , ARE LIKE THIS! COSTS FLUCTUATE MUCH LESS THAN TOTAL INCOME HENCE NET INCOME There are two main reasons why net earnings of steel companies fluc- tuate so much: First: The demand for steel products varies greatly, according to business in general. Second: This fluctuation is ac- centuated by the fact that fixed charges and overhead are a larger per cent. of operating costs than in the average type of business. There are Interest charges and depreciation on millions of 8ollars invested in 'plant and equipment, and minimum labor charges which must be paid whether business is good or not. ! All this means that in poor times | when earnings of all sorts of com- 'panies are smaller, the steel com- panles, instead of merely showing a reduced net, may be forced to spend all earnings for these fixed expenses, andl show no net at all. They can- not reduce operating costs in the same proportion that business falls off, ! The net earnings of a steel com. | pany may jump from 0 to 20 per ceut In a year, while those of an- other type range only from § to 10 per cent. : - To slander is one thing, to accuse another.
