Upon .consolidation/ all inter-compariy accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Inter-company profit in the inventories is insignificant in amount and has not been eliminated. Accounts of the subsidiary have been stated in United States dollars on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The equity of the Company in the net assets of the subsidiary at August 31, 1957, was $5,530,754 greater than the Company's investment-in the subsidiary, which difference has been included upon consolidation in earnings I: ^retained for use in the business. , The Company has one unconsolidated subsidiary, which is not significant as to either assets or operations. -" Note*B - Inventories ' ... ' . . ' Inventories at August 31, 1957, were classified as follows: In-process and finished goods Raw materials Supplies /.A TOTAL,' $29,735,020* . 15,279,533 ! * 2,373,052. $47,387,605* -, / ' Inventories, used in computing cost of products sold for the year '^'amounted''to ,^8,492,240 and $47,387,605 at the beginning and end of the year, respe.ctivelyr . ... -Note C - Depreciation and'related policies The policy of the companies is to provide for depreciation by systematic charges to income in amounts considered to be fair and reasonable to amortize the cost of the depreciable properties over their estimated useful lives. Useful lives have been estimated on the basis of the.anticipated wear, tear, obsolescence, and, deterioration of the properties. As to principal asset classifications, depreciation rates are predicated, in general, on useful lives of 20 to25.years for machinerv^-and equipment and of 40 y6ars for buildings. Cost of-grain-storage facilities placed in service in 1956' and 1957*is being amortized over a period of five years. Rqtes hav^-been applied by the straight-line method to properties acquired prior to .January^1, 1954, and to grain storage facilities acquired after that date, and by the sum-of-the-years digits method to other properti-es acquired on or after that date. . * Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to income. Expenditures'.for betterments' and renewals are added to the property accounts.' NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED Note C - Depreciation and related policies - continued The costs of properties retired or sold (less proceeds) are charged against amounts accumulated for depreciation if such retirements or disposals were contemplated in the determination of depreciation-rates. . If such retire ments or disposals were not so contemplatedj the costs_of the assets and the related accumulations for depreciation are eliminated--from the accounts and. the resulting gains or losses are credited'or'charged :to income. Note D - Retirement plans ,f :' 3'; The companies maintain, and absorb all the costs of, employee-retire ment plans that provide benefits to eligible employees in proportion to the . employee's basic earnings during stipulated periodsof service arid subject to certain maximums. At August 31, 1957, the unfunded'liability, for.past-service cost under the plans was estimated to be $3,800,000 and the annual currentservice cost (which does not include funding of the past-service cost) was estimated to be $1,100,000.
