The total cost per acre of logging average second-growth stands, 

 based on the total cost per thousand in Table 9 and the yields given 

 in Table 6, are shown in Table 10.

Note — The costs in Table 10 are based on an assumed average for all ages. As a matter of fact, since 

 it costs more to log small than large timber, the logging cost (exclusive of hauling) would decrease 

 slightly with the age of the stand. 



Operator's Profit. 



In computing stumpage value there should be deducted from the 

 market value of the lumber not only the logging costs but also the 

 amount of profit which an operator who bought the timber could be 

 expected to demand on his investment. The profit represents the 

 legitimate income upon the money invested, both in the standing 

 timber itself and in the cutting, manufacture, and delivery at the 

 local market of the lumber. The rate of this profit would be fixed 

 largely by such considerations as the length of time the timber must
