The rates of return and other data for the several large railroad companies that are presented in the attached tables prepared by the Bureau of Accounts and Cost Finding of the Interstate Commerce Commission were compiled from the basic data in the annual reports filed by the companies with the Interstate Commerce Commission for the years 1947, 1948, and 1949.

The tables on sheets 2 (exhibit S-263A) and 3 (exhibit S-263B) present the rates of return on stockholders' investment and the total investment (invested and borrowed capital) both before and after provision for payment of Federa! income taxes.
