Table 8.1] was met by the company’s own production of 44,794 yuan.
This excludes the capital accumulated for use in production the following
year.
According to these figures, each regiment of ten companies can
be self-supporting up to 440,440 yuan.
Furthermore, there is still the self-supporting production run by
the regimental headquarters [shown in Table 8.2]. The total value
of production of the companies, battalions and regiments is 703,828
yuan. The regiment’s total annual expenditure (including grain and
a proportion of clothing and bedding) is 896,638 yuan, which leaves
a shortfall of 185,510 yuan to be supplemented from upper levels.
