OPERATING RATIOS OF MEMBER BANKS
ELEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT

To the Member Banks in the
Eleventh Federal Reserve District:
There is presented on the inside pages of this letter the annual statement
of operating ratios of member banks in the Eleventh Federal Reserve Dis­
trict for 1957, with comparative figures for 1956. Each of the 1957 ratios
represents an average of the ratios of individual banks computed from data
taken from reports of condition as of December 81, 1956, June 6, 1957, and
October 11, 1957, and from reports of earnings and expenses for the year
1957. Ratios for your bank are included for your convenience in making
comparisons.
If you should like to have additional copies of this report, we will be glad
to send them to you.
Yours very truly,
Watrous H. Irons
President

1 Banks reporting zero amounts were excluded in computing this average, and figures are not shown where there were fewer than three banks in a group.
2 Computed on the basis of actual net losses or recoveries (after adjustments for transfers to and from reserves for bad debts), rather than on the basis o f figures furnished on the face of the Report of Earnings and Dividends.
NOTE: Balance sheet figures used as the basis for ratios are average of amounts reported as of December 31, 1956, June 6, 1957, and October 11, 1957.
