Reports of earnings, expenses, and dividends are submitted to the Federal supervisory agencies on either a cash or an accrual basis. Earnings data are included for all insured banks operating at the end of the respective years, unless indicated otherwise. In addition, appropriate adjustments have been made for banks in operation during part of the year but not at the end of the year. Data for 9 insured branches in Puerto Rico of insured national banks in New York are not available.
On December 8, 1947, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue issued Comm. Mimeograph Coll. No. 6209 entitled, "Reserve Method of Accounting for Bad Debts in the Case of Banks." (See pp. 82-84 in the 1947 Annual Report.) Under this ruling, banks are permitted to accumulate limited amounts of tax-free reserves for bad debt losses on loans. As a result, since 1947 unusually large amounts were set aside from income to valuation reserves, and net profits were decreased accordingly. The uniform report of earnings and dividends for com- mercial banks was revised in 1948 to show separately for the first time charge-offs and transfers to valuation reserves as well as recoveries and transfers from valuation reserves. Also, the actual recoveries and losses that are credited and charged to valuation reserves were reported as memoranda items.
Averages of assets and liabilities shown in Tables 110-113 and 116 are based upon figures at the beginning, middle, and end of each year, as reported by banks operating on those dates, adjusted to exclude asset and liability figures for insured branches in Puerto Rico of in- sured national banks in New York. Consequently, the asset and lia-
bility averages are not strictly comparable with the earnings data, but the differences are not large enough to affect the totals significantly. Some further incomparability is also introduced into the data by class of bank by shifts between those classes during the year.
Assets and liabilities shown in Table 114, and utilized for computation of ratios shown in Table 115, are for the identical banks to which the earnings data pertain. For national banks and State banks members of the Federal Reserve System, assets and liabilities are as of December 31, 1952, and for other banks, are averages of beginning, middle, and end of the year.
A uniform report of income, expenses, and dividends for mutual savings banks was adopted by the Corporation for the calendar year 1951. Summaries of these reports for 1952 are given in Tables 117 and 118. Historical data are omitted because of lack of comparability.
The new form attempts to present operations on a basis accurately reflecting actual income and profit and loss, and provides more detailed information regarding losses and valuation adjustments. For a dis- cussion of the history and principles of this uniform report see pp. 50-52 in Part Two of the 1951 Annual Report.
