Rule. Step 2. To find the net value of one pound of milk-fat :Di- 

 vide the total net receipts by the total number of pounds of milk-fat 

 delivered by all the patrons during the dividend period. Example: 



From the amount of milk delivered by the patrons, as given above, 

 we have made, say, 195 pounds of butter, which realizes 18 cents a 

 pounds, after deducting the cost of making and all other expenses. 

 This will give |85.10 to distribute among the patrons. We now 

 divide |35.10 by 173.68, the total amount of milk-fat delivered by 

 all patrons during the dividend period, and we have 20.2 cents as 

 the net amount of money received from butter for each pound of milk- 

 fat delivered. 



Rule. Step 3. To find the amount of dividend due each patron: 

 Multiply together the number representing the pounds of milk-fat 

 furnished by each patron and the net price received for each pound 

 of milk-fat. 



In this case, the net price realized for each pound of milk-fat is 

 20.2 cents, and so we multiply by this the number of pounds of fat 

 delivered by each patrou. Example:
