This film failed at the box office, resulting in a loss to MGM of $252,000 ($3.5M in 2018) according to studio records.
Ace figures he will have the $500,000 in bonds after serving five years in prison, and calculates that amounts to making $100,000 per year "sewing mailbags". Bob notes that this is more than the President of the U.S. makes. The salary of the President at the time of this film was $75,000 per year and had been unchanged since 1909. It would increase to $100,000 in 1949, $200,000 in 1969 and $400,000 in 2001.
The $500,000 in bonds Ace says he has, at the time of this film, that amount would equate to over $7.5M in 2021.
