Description A trawler on an average earned a gross
revenue of Rs. 6,28,800 during 1991-'92.
The annual cost of trawl operation is
calculated at Rs. 6,03,705. Thus, an amount of
Rs. 25,095 is found to be the net profit of a trawl
unit. The income over operating expenses comes
to Rs. 1.82 lakh. By investing one rupee on fuel,
an amount of Rs. 2.52 is earned by a trawler. It
requires 6 years to recover initial investment in
a trawl unit with the average production of
43,520 kg of fish per annum with a price of Rs.
14.45 per kg. The rate of return to capital is
calculated at 20% which is higher by 5% than the
rate of interest on which capital was made
available for acquiring the trawlers.
