They have been kept by double entry, and systematically balanced on the 28th of February of ea6h year, the profits being regularly added to capital. The annual stock lists have also been produced. Balance-sheets from Auckland and "Wellington were also exhibited; the former oxtending back to, 1872, and these documents are clear and business-like, and accompanied by returns of' sales, bill under discount, and other details* so as to shew fully the position of the branch houses at each balance. " I have taken out and tabulated the results shown in the Dunedin books, arid the balance-sheets referred to, and compared the profits at the end of each financial year with the sales made during the year, and, also, with the capital shown in the books at the beginning of the year, and find.the following averago results for the four years ending 28th February, 1876 : "Ist. The net profits on the cost values of the sales for the '.... last four years, equal.. .. 15.320 per cent. " 2nd. The average net profits on the average capital, equal.. .. 23.08 per cent.
