Producers receive an initial payment when they deliver grain to a primary elevator. The level of this initial payment is set by the Canadian Government and is a government-guaranteed price to the producer. The initial payment for each pool account is usually set at what is regarded as a "safe" level and varies from year-to-year according to market conditions.... The net value of grain in each pool account is determined after all grain has been sold and all costs involved in marketing have been deducted. These costs include interest, insurance, storage, terminal elevators handling charges, and the Board's own operating costs. They do not include rail freight costs from primary elevators to terminals or primary elevator handling charges. These costs are deducted from producers’ initial payment when grain is delivered. 1, record 12, English, - producers%26rsquo%3B%20initial%20payment

subscription : A promise undertaken by a buyer with a mind to buy, at a stated price, a certain number of coins or sets of coins of a special issue that are being or will be minted; they are paid for in a single payment, by advance payment, or in installment payments after an initial account is given. 1, record 16, English, - subscriber

In this form of subscription, the buyer is usually allowed to cancel his order or limit it to a smaller number of coins or sets upon issuance, while the issuing mint guaranties its prices until shipment or guaranties the price of the whole set of coins if paid in a single payment before a stated date. But when the commitment involves precious metal coins to be issued in more than a year, it is possible that the prices be established only once the coins have been issued. In this case, the buyer will have to pay the market price before receiving the coins; he may also choose to cancel his order or limit it to a smaller number of coins, but not after shipment of the coins. 1, record 16, English, - subscriber
