      abstract = {Excerpts from the report Summary: Depreciation of assets  -- one of the costs of doing business -- rose steadily  during 1949-59 and likely will continue to rise.  Corporate  agricultural marketing firms -- those handling food and  kindred products and textile-mill products, food retailers,  beverage manufacturers, and tobacco manufacturers -- more  than doubled their dollar charges for depreciating assets  in the 10 years.  Increases were typical of all  corporations in the U. S. economy.  Since World War II,  dollars of depreciation have increased more rapidly than  gains in total receipts but profits after taxes have   declined.  The total of the two (depreciation and after-tax  profits) -- sometimes called total cash flow – declined in  the late 1940’s and reached a low in the early 1950's.   Since then total cash flow has increased for the  agricultural industries.},
