Fortune does not rate these companies by assets but by total sales or operating revenues. It does, however, indicate on its four lists of nonfinancial companies- industrial, railroad, public utility and merchandising the assets of each company. For the
list above the categories have been blended, by size of assets, into a single list that is comparable with the TNEC list. Both lists are based on the same type of data: assets.
