Buy Sell Margins

[ljones9841]

I have a Buy Sell Margin calculator that uses historical prices from TN and GA. On the grade, you can use medium frame no. 1, medium frame no. 2 and large frame no. 2.

What exactly do those terms mean? When running simulations, how do I grade the calf I'm buying, and how do I guess what it will turn into?

Silly questions, I know, but I appreciate the help.

Dun, it's right on the money--told you it was a silly question, but all part of the research. I appreciate the response.

If you don;t know, how are you going to learn? It's not exactly something that is intuitive.
