Appendix IV

Transfers between Quotas under the "Swing" Scheme

Example of "Swing" Yardage Calculation

A company holds a quota of 5,000 dozen in Category No. 103 nightwear and wishes to "swing" 10 per cent into it from a quota in Category No. 102 blouses which is held either by the same company or by another company which has agreed to "swing" its quota out. The following calculation would be required:-

(a) 10% of 5,000 doz.

(b) No. of sq. yds. per doz.

for nightwear

(c) 500 doz. at 51.96 sq. yds.

per doz.

500 doz.

51.96

25,980 sq. yds.

(a)

No. of sq. yds. per doz. in blouses

(e) 25,980 sq. yds. at

14.53 sq. yds. per doz.

14.53

1,788 do z.

Therefore 1,788 dozen must be surrendered from the blouse

category to effect the necessary increase of 500 dozen in nightwear.
