A study examines the economics of a Finnish paper mill from 2001-2007 to investigate the correlation of its variables of prices, costs and logistics with its profits. Findings suggest that the profits in the Nordic paper mill are adversely affected by low paper prices and costly logistics, which could be offset by an increased production capacity and delivery of larger volumes of paper.
