Okay, so:
Last Regional Best Guess
Official FY17 at Actual
Budget Request FY16 Spending⁵
APAC 12650 (12.7%) 33025¹ (22.1%) 7600 (13.1%)
EMEA 27000 (27.0%) 33250 (22.2%) 15000 (26.0%)
LATAM 16500 (16.5%) 23180 (15.5%) 11000 (19.0%)
NA 43850 (43.9%) 60000² (40.1%) 24200 (41.9%)
total 100000³ 149455⁴ 57800
1. Based on totaling the wiki page
2. Wow
3. Remember, this year's budget excluded FADs, which is not something
we want to repeat; FADs were actually paid for from underspend
4. Yeah, that'd be nice....
5. This may not account for everything, but here's what we have from
internal records.
So, as a semi-arbitrary starting point, if we average the percentages
from each of the categories, that gives us:
APAC: 17.3%
EMEA: 24.5%
LATAM: 16.5%
NA: 41.7%
If we give EMEA a 5 percentage-point "credit" for having a nice
spreadsheet in early, that works out to:
APAC: 15.6%
EMEA: 29.5%
LATAM: 14.9%
NA: 40.0%
If we allocate the $73500 in total regional funding, that looks like
this (rounded slightly for prettiness):
Adjusted Percent of Percent of
FY17 Asked for Recorded FY16
Allocation Amount Spending
APAC: $11500 34.8% 151.3%
EMEA: $21650 65.1% 144.3%
LATAM: $10950 47.2% 99.5%
NA: $29400 49.0% 121.5%
Like I said, here's a starting point. What do you think?
To be clear, the numbers above are contingent on the regions
submitting an actual proposed budget with detailed plans for the
funds, correct? I know that is a departure from previous years, but
given we want to start tracking our money more clearly, I would think
having those budgets and plans in place before funds are allocated
makes sense.
In other words, the dollar amounts above aren't going to be given even
if we all agree to them until all the regional budget information is
in place.
