Resumo: | Data on net turnoff for small, medium-sized and large cow-calf and small and large size yearling ranches were tested for normality using the Shapiro - Wilk test.  The yield data examined were accepted as normally distributed at the alpha = .10 level.  The probability of profit for each type of ranch was assessed using normal curve techniques for nine different cost-price alternatives and weather conditions.  Yearling cattle ranchers had higher profit probabilities than cow-calf ranchers.  Prices received had more influence on profit probabilities than weather conditions.
