Vv NORMS, TRENDS, AND CORRELATIONS IN GROSS EARNINGS RATIOS I. INTRODUCTION Tis chapter relates to the norms, trends, and correlations in ratios of gross earnings to earning assets, for all of the member banks in the Boston Federal Reserve district for the years 1924 and 1925. Unfortunately, data are available to us for only these years, but limited as they are in point of time, they neverthe- less seem to be significant. In what way, it is the purpose of this chapter to develop. 2. NORMS AND TRENDS IN GROSS EARNINGS RATIOS The average ratios of gross earnings to earning assets for 410 member banks in the Boston district in 1924 and 1925 were, respectively, 6.04 and 6.17.! When the banks are classified by the sizes of the cities in which they are located, as in Table 155, ‘he amounts range from 5.83 to 6.28, the ratios being generally lowest for the banks in the largest cities. Moreover, as shown in this table, there is some evidence of a functional relationship between the size of the city of location and the size of the ratios. The same may also be said concerning the ratios for the banks classified according to volume of earning assets. But the amounts in Table 155 are averages from which there are variations each year for banks in different city-size and volume (earning assets) groups, and in the same city-size and volume groups for different years. Table 156, which, according to two methods of classification, shows the distribution of the ratios for the combined years, indicates the range over which they extend and the points at which they cluster. With such 1 These averages, being derived from the ratios themselves, differ from those for Boston as shown in Table go, the latter being weighted figures. 270
