how is the value of harvested timber calculated (ie knowing what the volume is what factor is used to get $)?

Boardfeet.  Basically, it is a single value, also the type of wood and quality.  So, grade, type and boardfeet.  The dollar value varies as the market goes up and down.\n\nBoardfeet assumes a certain mix of stock sizes, based upon the wood type.

A = A_(0)*exp(k*t) \n\nA represents the amount at a given time t.\n\nAo represents the initial amount of the growing entity.  Note that this is the amount when t = 0.\n\n\nk is a constant that represents the growth rate.  It is POSITIVE when talking in terms of exponential GROWTH.\n\n\nt is the amount of time that has past.  If the information for time is given in dates, you need to convert it to how much time has past since the initial time.  For example, if the model is set up at an initial year of 2000 and you need to find out what the value is in the year 2010, t would be 2010 - 2000 = 10 years.\n\nYou can use this formula to find any of its variables, depending on the information given and what is being asked in a problem.  For example, you may be given the values for Ao and t and you need to find the amount A after the given time.  Or, you may be given the final amount A and the initial amount Ao and you need to find the time t.\n\nSome examples of exponential growth are population growth and financial growth.  The information found, can help predict what a population for a city or colony would be in the future or what the value of your house is in ten years.  Or you can use it to find out how long it would take to get to a certain population or value on your house.

Convert metric tons to grams.  Divide by the molecular weight of CO2.  Multiply by Avagadro's number.  Use scientific notation.  It's a really big number.

You can determine the book value by taking owners equity (assets less liabilities) and dividing by the number of outstanding shares.\n\nYou could attempt to determine some type of fair maket value by getting a multiple of price to earnings from a publicly traded company of a similar size and similar business and multiplying that times net income of the company your trying to value.  You would then need to discount that for lack marketabilty (maybe 15%). Then divide this result by the number of outstanding shares.  There are a lot of factors that go into valuation not discussed here but this gives you a VERY ROUGH GUESS.

convert everything to ft. (its easier). now, find the volume of the deep area (length times width times height). then divide by the volume by the bags of mulch

Use the factor label method:\n$1465/5000oz x 16oz/1 lb x 2.2 lb/1 kg x 1kg/1000g x 45 rupees/$1 = 0.46 rupees/gram

The formula for depreciated value at the end of each year is:\nValue=(Worth Original) X (1 - Rate of Depreciation)^^Years\nsubstituting for year 2 we get\n30000 = 50000 * (1 - r)^^2  ==> 30000/50000 = (1 - r)^^2 ==>\n.6 = (1 - r)^^2  take square root of each side ==>\n+/-sqrt(.6) = 1 - r  ==> +/- .7746 = 1 - r ==> r = 1 +/- .7746 ==>\nr = .2254 or 1.7746 r must be less than 1 so r = .2254\nsubstituting again for 1000 dollar minimum we get\n1000 = 50000 * (1 - .2254)^^x ==> .02 = (.7746)^^x using logs\n==> ln(.02) = ln(.7746)^^x ==> ln(.02) = x * ln(.7746) solve for x\n==> x = ln(.02)/ln(.7746) ==> x = 15.316...\nThe machine will reach have it's last depreciation at the end of the 15th year and will be worth scrap of $1,000 for every year after that.

To calculate an answer to this question you need to specify a few other parameters. For example the size of the tree is important (the larger the tree the smaller the percentage), the location of the pot is important too, is it one metre away from the trunk of the tree? Over what period of time are you interested?  If you factor in things like prevailing weather, wind, species of tree etc. then it becomes very difficult to calculate a percentage.\n\nMy best guess is that less than a percent of the trees flowers would end up in the pot.  You could of course experiment with a pot but I don't fancy your chances of counting the flowers on the tree if you pick a big tree.\n\nWhat inspired you to ask this question? Is it an assignment?\n\nRegards \n\n\n\n\nr

I suppose you were given more than those three consumption figures, but didn't put them in here? \nYou could plot these points on a graph, putting the mass values along the horizontal axis and the consumptions on the vertical.  If they are in a straight line, or nearly so, continue the line back to the point above 25kg on the mass scale, and see what consumption value it has.

Ms. Lil -\n\nThe fact is that our society's need for and willingness to pay for, for example, lumber, has resulted in lumber companies planting and raising more trees than they cut-down.\n\nDon't believe this? Google the "acreage in timber development" and find out that there is more timberland in development now than ever in the history of the country!  Why? Because people who put their money in long-term timber development know that growing more than you consume assures the future.\n\nSimple - eh?\n\nHey - the free enterprise system works better than any ten government agencies!\n\nGood luck with your project - it's a winner!

You need to know the magnitude, the link below will give you the formula.

I'll agree that you need help.  Density is mass/vol.  You've given the density, you need another value to calculate the remaining value.

If you don't want to spend money, you can use mathmatics.\n\nAll you need is a tape measure and a protractor.\n\nDepending on how tall the tree is (just guess) measure about the same distance from the tree.\n\nyou. . . . Tree  (20 ft.) \n\nNow if you can imagine that you are a vertex of a right triangle, and the tree represents the other two vertices.  Bottom of the tree is one, and the top is the other.\n\nSit down in your spot and hold the protractor level wiith the ground.  From the center of the protractor, view the top of the tree and then wrrite down the angle you are viewing through to see the top of the tree.\n\nNow using trigonomerty you should be able to closely estimate the height of the tree.\n\n\nHeight = distance (you to the tree) multiplied by the SIN(angle from protractor).\n\n\nHere is a trig table you can refer to...\nhttp://wikisource.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions_of_angles_0%C2%B0_to_90%C2%B0_by_degree

the formula for volume of a cylinder is V = h * pi * r^2.\nAlternatively, the surface area is A = h * pi * r * 2.\n\nSo, if you have either the surface area or the volume, you can calculate for the height.\n\nH = Volume / pi * r^2\nH = Area / pi * r * 2
