earnings credit allowable by law for calculating the excess profits tax
is based upon the average of the profits for the four years 1936 through
1939.
In calculating quarterly provisions for excess profits taxes this
earnings credit is prorated, and allocated, one-fourth to the first quar'ter of thd year, one-half to the first six months, and three-fourths to.
the first nine months.
The difference between actual profits before

of earnings for interim
periods should not be made without giving consideration to differ¬
ences in methods of accounting and tax computations.
;
In the year 1944 earnings did not enter excess profits brackets until
the
month
of April
and, consequently, were made subject to the
higher rates from April through Sept, and full excess profits credits
used in the nine months' report.
For the year 1945, however, with
the
expectation that total earnings would be subject to the higher
rates, both normal and excess profits taxes have, been computed on
a monthly pro rata basis from the beginning of the year,
The effect
of this computation is to spread the excess profits base credits oyer
the entire year, thus helping to equalize monthly profits or to cushion
monthly operating losses.
„1
Y
1
The precipitate decline in volume of production resulting from the
cancellation of practically all war contracts caused an operating loss
for the third quarter, yet for the reasons just stated a comparison of
the earnings reported at the end of the second and third quarters
would indicate a profit for the latter period.
Another influence on earnings comparisons is the fact that a year
ago the sum of $250,000 was set aside as an addition to the company's
reserve for
contingencies./ No similar charge has been made against
earnings for the current year.
The third influence on these comparisons is the deduction of $126,000
from
earnings
to
cover
the
estimated
pro
rata
contribution
which, the company will make to the profit-sharing plan and trust
agreement for the year 1945.
Since the plan was not adopted until
the
letter
months of
1944, no similar charge was made against
earnings until the final quarter of that year.
,
*<
;
If
earnings for the nine months of 1944 had been computed on
the same basis as employed this year they would have
been $468,568 instead of $309,243 as reported and as compared with current
earnings of $318,493 now reported.
