The correct choice is (b) per cu m

Easy explanation: Lumber (American English; used only in North AMERICA) or timber (used in the rest of the English speaking world) is a type of wood that has been processed into beams and planks, a stage in the PROCESS of wood production.

Lumber may be supplied either roug-sawn, or surfaced on one or more of its faces. Besides pulpwood, rough lumber is the raw material for furniture-making and other items requiring additional cutting and shaping. It is available in many species, usually hardwoods; but it is also readily available in softwoods, such as white PINE and red pine, because of their LOW cost. Finished lumber is supplied in standard sizes, mostly for the construction industry – primarily softwood, from coniferous species, including pine, FIR and spruce (collectively spruce-pine-fir), cedar, and hemlock, but also some hardwood, for high-grade flooring.
