Mrs. Lome Rader Zurich, called on At times most of us have looked at purse, wallet or bank-book, and wondered: “Where does the money go? ” Each year we at Imperial add up the company’s bills to see what happened to the money we received in the previous 12 months for the gasoline, fuel oil and other products we sell. Here’s where each dollar of Imperial’s 1952 income went: CRUDE OIL and other raw materials we bought, plus freight, took more than half of each dollar. OPERATING expenses took more than 28 cents. This was the cost of searching for and producing crude oil, and of manufacturing and marketing the hundreds of products we supplied for thousands of uses. Through­ out the year high quality products were made available where and when you needed them. TAXES to provincial and federal governments took 10 cents. And this did not include gasoline tax, which— depending on where you live—took from 24 to 36 cents out of every dollar you spent for standard grade gasoline. DIVIDENDS paid to shareholders fof use of plants and equipment amounted to 4.06 cents. TO REPLACE worn out equipment and to make sure that we can supply your needs in the future 3.42 cents was put back into the business.
