Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the competitive sale of timber from federally controlled forests in three regions of the western United States. Data from nearly three thousand sales made between 1974 and 1977 was collected and analyzed, and the results have shaped a deeper understanding of how sales have been priced and how that pricing has been affected by administrative variables. The author compares two methods for selling timber, sealed bidding and oral auction, demonstrating that sealed bidding in many cases resulted in higher selling prices. Additionally, the study underscores that while the Small Business Administration Set-Aside Program has attempted to provide opportunities for small businesses to remain viable, it has not always treated small and large bidders equitably. The author concludes that National Forest timber sales are one domain where seemingly straightforward transactions are in fact quite complex and often based on factors external to the actual value of the lumber and the standard of living of those engaged in the logging profession. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781390507058_0
