I went about it thusly: $75,000 multiplied by four (as in quarters). That's $300,000. And then I divided by something, then added something, then did something else to come up with 8333.
Honestly, it's the cough medicine.
Sounds like million freeper math. Let me take a stab at it.
$75k x 4 quarters = $300K budget
(8333 freepers) x ($1 per day) x (365 days) = $3,041,545
Now divide by 7 due to post office neglegence and anthrax discard to = $434,506
Now add in the tax factor of 31% and whalla ~$300,000
Is this what you had in mind?
