Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Teesside Corporation's bus services produced a trading surplus for the financial year just ended of £251,000 compared with £175,000 for the previous year, and a net profit of £105,000 compared with a £30,000 deficit.

The Transporter Bridge showed a net loss of £15,000 which exceeded the 1970-71 deficit by £3,000. The overall surplus was £90,000.

The borough treasurer, Mr J. B. Woodham, said last week: "The substantial fare increases in 1970-71 have more than Offset the wage awards and other increases which had their effect in 1971-2, while the increase from 25 to 50 per cent in the Government grant for new vehicles had also resulted in substantial savings".
