A forest stand of a fast‑growing species follows the logistic growth model \(V(t)=\frac{K}{1+ae^{-bt}}\) where \(K=300\,\text{m}^3\) ha⁻¹, \(b=0.08\,\text{yr}^{-1}\) and \(V(0)=120\,\text{m}^3\) ha⁻¹. (a) Determine the constant \(a\). (b) Find the sustainable annual allowable cut (in m³ ha⁻¹) that will keep the stand at the volume giving the maximum sustainable yield (i.e., at the volume where the growth rate is maximal).
