In 1951, before all the handover from Britain, while Nkrumah was in fact still in prison, before he was appointed Leader of Government Business, the deficit on the current account of the Gold Coast was $144,820,000.00.
READ:
"... In 1951 the deficit on current account (of the Gold Coast) was £52 million...".
(Around 1951, £52M (GBP Pound Sterling) was approximately equivalent to $144,820,000.00(USD)).

(2) NOTE:
We do not expect anyone wasting their time and ours coming up with current value of monies invested on projects by Kwame Nkrumah, for Ghana. (That would be a pointless exercise, from our point of view).
Trust us, we can also calculate and present for all to see approximate BENEFIT to Ghanaians of many of the same projects, year-after-year, going back 51 years, or when they were first constructed, using original cost.
Don't waste our time, blokes!

All interested parties may want to keep a copy of the Read posting. Speaking about the 1st post.
It is safe to say that the NLC did not do any serious analyses before throwing out/getting rid of the projects, including mothballing the tractors Andy now mentions.
In Part 1 of the Read's post, Mr. John Cordle explains clearly what was happening with both categories of industrial production and services.
While the 100% state enterprise were challenged due to "lack of practical ability" and "civil engineering", of types solvable with time and experience, and training, the government-private enterprises we doing well. In fact, out of 32 corporations, only about 4 were under-performing.
READ: "...In the event, State enterprises have been created which, generally speaking, have failed because of lack of practical ability. Of 32 State-owned corporations in which the Government have invested about £40 million, net accumulated losses to date have been incurred of nearly £14 million, principally by the State Mining Corporation £6 million; Ghana Airways—£5.1 million; and the State Farm Corporation—£2.4 million.
WE SAY: Again, we will note that out of 32 corporations, only about 4 were underperforming. Interestingly, Mr. Cordle does not mention the Black Star Line, which we believe was 100% government-owned. The BSL was doing well and had re-invested in more efficient ships around 1962-1964, if our memory serve us right.
THEN THIS FROM MR. CORDLE: "...By contrast, some projects in the private sector are operating efficiently. A soap factory of Unilever is a good example, and the textile printing works at Tema, which will be managed by Unilever and A.D.A.T.I.G., should prosper. A cocoa-processing factory and steel works at Tema have every chance of success, as has a projected glass factory at Tarkwa. In contrast to the losses made by the State-owned enterprises, the joint State-private enterprises showed total accumulated profits of over £600,000 from total investments of £1 If we are going to track these matters and learn the History of Ghana, you want to makesure you keep a copy of the Read posting, the first one.
The other pertinent commentary was the one by Mr. John Tilney (Liverpool, Wavertree), who introduces the concept, "the Little England, anti-developing Commonwealth aspect of our recent Budget", and the need for quick trade agreement on cocoa just, as they'd done for sugar in the immediate past.
READ MR TILNEY IN FULL: "...Mr. John Tilney (Liverpool, Wavertree) I must declare an interest as a director of a company which trades both in and with Ghana, that country of pleasant people where I have many fiends, a country naturally richer than any purely African country south of the Sahara. It is an independent Common-wealth country and I would not wish to go in detail into what are its private affairs. We are all guilty at times of spending not all that wisely, and if banks suddenly foreclosed on individuals, companies or countries we might all find ourselves in a difficult situation...I hope that Her Majesty's Government may be able to meet some of the points so very sensibly raised by my hon. Friend the Member for Bournemouth, East and Christchurch (Mr. Cordle). Private enterprise, of course, has been hit in Ghana by import rationing and heavy taxation, but so might it be by the Little England, anti-developing Commonwealth aspect of our recent Budget. My hon. Friend is perfectly right when he lays emphasis on cocoa. I remember the Korean boom in cocoa when it reached nearly £500 a ton. In 1954 the average price was £467 10s. The drop in price has been really staggering. Only a few months ago it was over £200. Now it is under £130, and that in depreciated £s. Therefore, whatever Her Majesty's Government can do to get the Western world to help in this cocoa crisis I believe not only Ghana but other countries in the developing world would be extremely grateful.
Unfortunately we cannot very easily have a Commonwealth cocoa agreement. The Commonwealth Sugar Agreement has enabled the West Indian islanders and others to hold their heads high, but we take no more than 7½ per cent. of the world cocoa production. Therefore, if we can get our friends in Europe and the United States and the U.S.S.R. to come into some worldwide agreement, we will do much to prevent not only Ghana but Western Nigeria from suffering."
WE SAY: Our sense is, none of the savings kept by the corporatist cocoa syndicates in London, New York, Brussels, etc., by paying less to Ghana and other cocoa producing countries, were ever passed on to consumers in New York, London, or Ghana, for that matter.
