N.Z. Lamb.
RETAIL LONDON PRICES. In regard to the published prices realised for New Zealand lamb delivered to Smithfield market, the New Zealand Meat Producers’ Board supplies the following - table, giving the equivalent New Zealand parity, after deducting all costs, including selling commission. The costing is based on to-day’s estimated skin values and includes exchange at current rates. The calculation is on the basis of a prime woolly lamb weighing, say, 341 b., delivered at freezing works: — If the price delivered to Smithfield is 7d. per lb., the N.Z. “overall” parity delivered at works is approximately 6.98 d. per lb.; 6 7-Bd. and 6.83 d.; 62d. and 6.69 d. (In the above estimate the cost of killing, freezing and placing on board steamer is based on a charge of .575 d. per lb.).
