What to charge the individual student ?

 

Dear teachers and school administrators you may pass on program and travel costs to students. For example you book the Bug Show:

 

Say, of your 82 students enrolled only 75 are likely to participate due to illness or other reason (you have to use your judgment) and your school is located 100 km from Murwillumbah. Hence you calculate the cost for each student as follows:

 

program cost = $4.50

travel fee = 30c per km

travel distance return trip = 200km

travel costs = 200km * 30c = $60

travel cost per student = $60 / 75 students = 80 cents

cost to individual student = $4.50 + $0.80 = $5.30

 

 

Alternatively, your school may decide to subsidise the program and pay the travel cost component for the students.

 

If you have questions, please ask your finance officer or contact us for more information.
