Estimating methods are described and results are presented on economic evaluation of processing glandless cottonseed into flour with by‐products of oil, hulls, and fine meats. Processing was assumed to be conducted in three sizes of mills processing 100, 200, and 400 tons per day of seed for 300 days per year. Estimates were made of the prices of flour required to give discounted cash flow rates of return ranging from 0 to 25%. At 25% return the estimated prices of flour were 36 cents, 28 cents, and 25 cents per pound for the three sizes of mills
