    Could not understand the workings for the following:

    Additional training costs
    Additional room hire
    Additional staff training
    Software

    Trainer costs:

    Given that sales increase by 20% and they are keeping the same class sizes, they will need to spend an extra 20% on trainers

    Room hire:

    Same as above. 20% more training means 20% more room hire.

    Staff training:

    The question specifically says that staff training costing $500 is needed in quarters 1 and 2.

    Software:

    The question specifically says that demo programs are bought for $1,800 in quarter 1.

    Understood for staff training and software

    However the trainer cost and Room hire in the answer give the figures $200 and $100 respectively, can you please advice ?

    The 200 and 100 are irrelevant. The total cost is 20% higher for the reasons I explained in my previous reply.
