Hallo Sir kindly assist with the working for Ganymede, question 3 on BPP am lost on how the examiner came about those figures
contract management 78 lab 226 up to General services 2153,they are different from those in the question kindly assist with GU only then it l will work out AU BU
They are not benchmarking using absolute figures but for contract management and lab management the cost per $000 of contract value. Otherwise large universities with high absolute costs would look bad.
So, for GU:
Contract management = 14,430/185 = 78 (I think the answer drops 000 somewhere to get 78 rather than 0.078)
Lab management = 41,810/185 = 226.
Teaching costs will be benchmarked as cost per student, so
26,993,000/28,394 = 951
etc
The answer shows the bases used to spread each cost.
