Notes:


1. *1974 is an 18 month period.


**Development Expenditure—Interest charges incurred on expenditure on plant and machinery not yet operational have been capitalised.


**Capital Employed includes long and short term borrowings but excludes development expenditure.


2. Trading Profit/Loss (T.P.) has been arrived at after crediting dividends received from associated companies (1970-1977) or share of profits of associated companies, net of tax (1978 and 1979) but before charging depreciation, interest or taxation.


3. Consolidated accounts were prepared by the Company for 1978 and 1979 only.
