3 Sugar Industry (Calculation of Raw Sugar Equivalent) Guideline 1992 SUGAR INDUSTRY (CALCULATION OF RAW SUGAR EQUIVALENT) GUIDELINE 1992 [reprinted as in force on 27 October 1993 2 ] ˙ Short title 1. This guideline may be cited as the Sugar Industry (Calculation of Raw Sugar Equivalent) Guideline 1992 3 . ˙ Method of calculating raw sugar equivalent 2.(1) For the purposes of the Act, the raw sugar equivalent of an amount of sugar is the amount converted to its 94 net titre equivalent by applying the formula— tonnes 94 net titre = tonnes actual x actual net titre 94 (2) In subsection (1)— “tonnes actual” means the amount, expressed in tonnes, of the sugar to be converted to raw sugar equivalent; “actual net titre” means the figure produced by applying the formula mentioned in subsection (3). (3) For the purpose of calculating the actual net titre of sugar, the Corporation will apply the formula— actual net titre = pol – % reducing sugars – (5 x % ash) . (4) In subsection (3)— “pol” means the sucrose content of the sugar expressed as degrees of polarisation ascertained by polarimetric analysis carried out by the method determined by the Corporation; “% reducing sugars” means the percentage of reducing sugars in the sugar, calculated as invert sugar according to the method of analysis determined by the Corporation;

4 Sugar Industry (Calculation of Raw Sugar Equivalent) Guideline 1992 “% ash” means the percentage of sulphated ash present in the sugar according to the method of analysis determined by the Corporation.
