He recognized that it would be more accurate to time each element of the various kinds of work to be done with a stop-watch, and then find the quickest time in which each job could be done by summing up the times of it component operations and adding a reasonable percentage of allowance, then to search through records of former jobs as a guide in judging the price. After two years of experimentation and trial he was conviced that this method was a success." (from the Preface). N° de réf. du vendeur G91414
