In attempting to determine approximately the annual net profits 

 from the manor, the items relating to grain and stock present special 

 difficulties. Sometimes the grain and stock supplied to the earl's 

 household were accounted for as ' sold ' to the earl, and the money- 

 receipts were entered in the same fashion as the receipts from sales 

 at Norwich market. At other times no money was received for the 

 commodities supplied to the earl. Often both grain and stock were 

 received from, or sent to, other of the earl's manors, no money 

 payments being made. In calculating the net profits, the stock and 

 grain sent to other manors or used by the earl have been valued as 

 receipts, and the stock and grain received from other manors have 

 been valued as expenses. The prices of these commodities have been 

 calculated for each year from the prices entered in the account rolls 

 of that year, or where these prices were too few to form the basis of 

 a trustworthy average, Thorold Rogers' average prices have been 

 used.
