ABSTRACT


The costs of processing, warehousing and selling Florida citrus
products for the 1981-82 season are estimated to have increased from
1980-81 levels. The estimated total costs of producing 48 6-ounce cans
of orange concentrate 420 brix increased to $4.91--a 7.7 percent
increase from 1980-81 levels while the costs of producing single
strength orange juice in 12 46-ounce cans are estimated to have
increased to $4.88--a 2.5 percent increase from 1980-81 levels.
Estimated cost of processing warehousing and selling bulk
Grapefruit concentrate 38.40 brix is $1.23 per gallon. Single strength
grapefruit juice 12 46-ounce cans per case is estimated to be $4.89. An
increase of 2.8 percent above 1980-81 season levels.
Citrus feed cost per ton increased from $54.48 in 1980-81 to $75.04
in 1981-82, a 37.7 percent increase.




Key words: citrus marketing, citrus processing, marketing margins,
processing costs, citrus.

ESTIMATED COSTS OF PROCESSING, WAREHOUSING AND
SELLING FLORIDA CITRUS PRODUCTS, 1981-82 SEASON

R. Clegg Hooks*


INTRODUCTION




The purpose of this study is to develop estimates of processing
warehousing and selling costs for Florida citrus products for the 1981-
82 season. Citrus processing cost data were obtained from 8 firms. The
total volume for each type of product and the percentage of total
Florida production processed by firms in the sample are shown in Table
1. The chilled juices again were not reported because of lack of
participation by enough firms producing chilled juice.
Most firms provided average total costs per case or per gallon from
their audited financial statements. The following tables present esti-
mates of the average costs for plant operation, warehousing and selling
the finished products. Fruit costs are not included. The cost are
weighted averages where the weights are the volumes packed of each
product by each firm during the 1981-82 production year.
The firms were not selected according to a sample design. Some of
the year-to-year cost variation can be attributed to firms entering and
leaving the sample and the distribution of the total volume of each
product among sample firms.

Firms reported their costs in varying degrees of detail. Costs are
aggregated and/or reorganized for each product and can size, in order to
develop cost categories consistent with those used in this report.
Selling costs include brokerage as well as the firms' sales depart-
ment expense. Discount allowances and brand royalties have been omit-
ted.




FROZEN CONCENTRATE


The estimated costs of processing, warehousing and selling orange,
and grapefruit frozen concentrate in various retail and bulk forms are
shown in Tables 2,3,4, and 5.
Estimated average costs for packing 48 6-ounce cans of orange
concentrate in cases are shown in Table 2 along with item-by-item com-
parisons to 1980-81 estimates. Total costs were estimated at $4.91 per
case -- a 7.7 percent increase from 1980-81 estimates. The items with
the largest increase were: warehouse and selling expense.
Table 3,4, and 5 show costs of processing other retail as well as
bulk concentrate products. The total estimated costs for 24 12-ounce,
cans in cases at 420 brix orange concentrate increased 9.5 percent above
1980-81.
Bulk 420 brix orange concentrate costs shown in Table 4 were up 4.4
percent from 1980-81 estimates while the cost for 38.40 brix grapefruit
concentrate is reported to be $1.23 per gallon (Table 5).

SINGI, STRENGTH JIICES


Estimated average single strength processing, warehousing and
selling costs are shown in Tables 6, and 7.
Table 6 shows estimated single strength orange processing,
warehousing and selling costs for 12 46-ounce cans in cases for 1981-82
with comparisons to 1980-81 estimates. The 1981-82 cost is $4.88 per
case, a 2.5 percent increase in total costs over 1980-81 estimates,
while Table 7 shows estimated single strength grapefruit processing,
warehousing, and selling cost of $4.89 per case, a 2.8 percent increase
above 1980-81 season levels.



CITRUS FEED


The estimated costs of processing citrus feed in bulk are shown in
Table 8.
Citrus feed processing costs per ton for 1981-82 are estimated to
be $75.04, a 37.7 percent increase over the t980-81 season. This large
increase is attributed to reduced production during the 1981-82 season.



COSTS AND PRICE TRENDS


Costs for processing, warehousing and selling 48 6-ounce cans of
orange concentrate in cases remained relatively stable through the 1971-
72 season (Table 9). From 1971-72 through 1974-75, costs increased by
$1.03 (46 points) while average retail price increased $.25 (3 points).
From 1974-75 through 1979-80 costs increased 49 cents (21 points) while
