Determination of Private and Social Profitability
After obtaining the complete list of input and output measured in private and social price, the PAM is easily constructed Table 7.

The term private in the first row refers to the observed revenue and costs reflecting actual market price received or paid by feedlots, merchant or processors
in agricultural system. Therefore, the private profitability П
p
is equal to difference between the revenue and costs at the private price Rev
p
– C
Tp
– C
DFp
. The Rev
p
are obtained from multiplication of output quantity with its private price. Further, C
Tp
and C
DFp
are computed from multiplication of input with its private price. The private profits positive value П
p
0 indicates that commodities can expand the system if the resources are available or more valuable alternatives.
On that account, the private profitability demonstrates the competitive advantage of the systems according to technology, input cost, and policy.
The similar procedure can also be adopted to obtain social profitability П
s
. On the contrary with private profit which measured at market price, the social profit is obtained according to multiplication of production component with
its social price. Thus, the social profitability П
s
is equal to the difference between revenue and cost at social price Rev
s
- C

. The social profit positive value П
s
0 indicates that the feedlot industry revenue for producing the output is exceeding the cost to use the input. It describes that the feedlot industry
remain profitable after paying the tradable and domestic factor component without any protection from the government.
The transfers’ row is fulfilled immediately after all the first and second row entries were assigned. It reflects how much the private price to be different
with the social price. Thus, the value of transfers is equals to the difference between values in private and social price. For instance, output transfers obtained
from revenue measured in private price less revenue measured in social price. The same procedures are also applied for tradable input, domestic factors, and profit.
The net transfer in the fourth row fifth column reflects the total impact of divergence.
Data Analysis Competitive Advantage
Entries in the first row of PAM is used to determine the competitive advantage. Competitiveness indicator are obtain through comparing the domestic
cost with the difference between revenue and tradable cost, all measured at a private price, written as Private Cost Ratio PCR:
PCR =
�
��
�
−
�
Thus, if 0PCR1 : Feedlots have competitive advantage
PCR=1 : Feedlots are competitively neutral
0PCR1 : Feedlots have competitive disadvantage
Comparative Advantage
Entries in the second row of PAM are used to determine the comparative advantage of the industry. Comparative advantage indicator are obtain through
comparing the domestic cost with the difference between revenue and tradable cost, all expressed at a social price, written as Domestic Resource Cost DRC:
DRC =
�� −
Thus, if 0DRC1 : Feedlots have comparative advantage
DRC=1 : Feedlots are comparatively neutral
0DRC1 : Feedlots have comparative disadvantage
Impact of Policy Analysis
PAM is convenience to be used as analysis tools because it shows indirect estimations for competitive and comparative advantage. Furthermore, other
indicators such as policy to input, output, and both can also be evaluated from the information in the matrix. Its processes are as shown below:
