Are you 100 per cent efficient?
If not, what per cent are you?
The United States Department of Com­
merce has prepared a plan by which an
operator can rate himself. The man who
can answer the questions correctly may con­
sider himself 100 per cent efficient, accord­
ing to the department, and a miracle man,
according to most operators.
Here are the questions:
1. Do you keep a purchase account that
shows a total of all goods bought?
2. Do you know what you owe?
3. How often do you take stock?
4. Do you figure stock at cost or selling
price?
5. Do you make the allowance for de­
preciation and dead stock?
6. Do you know what is due you?
15. Do you charge your own salary as an
expense?

16. Do you charge interest on money in­
vested ?
17. Do you know the percentage of ex­
pense to sales?
