What reading level is Annual Report of the Board of Railroad Commissioners 1870 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the Commonwealth took possession under the method first stated it would be necessary to compute the excess of interest at ten per cent, over the dividends actually paid by the corpor- ation since it was organized. The commissioners have not verified the figures contained in the report of the commission on cheap transportation to the legislature of 1870 (p. 68), but, assuming them to be correct, the amount of dividends now in arrear appears to be between 92-3 per cent, of the capital, amounti...ng to a total of $3,357,000, aggregating, together with the stock capital, almost exactly $7 ,000,000; or, otherwise stated, the road, if purchased in this way, would cost the Com- monwealth in the immediate neighborhood of $75,000 per mile, or $192 per share. As the stock now commands a market price of $136-7, any arrangement of this nature would certainly constitute no hardship on the shareholders.
In this connection it is of interest to see what, on the same basis of computation, would be the cost to the Commonwealth of its other leading railroads.
