#' Unit Conversion - Area - Square Yard to Acre
#'
#' Performs a conversion of areas from square yard to acres. Note, per NIST standard, this is a "survey foot"
#' instead of an "international foot" as is commonly used. In 2022, this will likely become the "international foot."
#' For most purposes, either survey feet or international feet may be used, but very large areas being calculated will have
#' an error of roughly a quarter sheet of paper (A4 or letter) per acre (2/1 000 000 difference between survey feet
#' and international feet).
