materials, pay wages and salaries.
JA companies also pay simulated
profits taxes and rent to the JA of
fice. These funds go Into special
accounts and are returned to the
young business people In the form of
awards and travelshlps. A JA
company may also vote to donate
part of Its profits to this same
awards account or' to a selected
charity. Profits are also used to pay
dividends to stockholders and, oc
casionally, are divided among
company members In a profit-
sharing plan.

effort Is made to teach the young
people the reason for their loss so
they may benefit from the ex

"But usually the JA companies
show a profit," Ledford said.

attitudes toward business than the
general public not Involved In
running their own businesses.
"Besides giving the students some
