When Twain bids on requests for seminars, it estimates the costs using a set of standardized billing rates. It then adds an estimate for travel, supplies, and so on (referred to asout-of-pocket costs). Next it applies a percentage to the total of seminar leader cost and out-of-pocket cost for general and administrative (G&A) expense. The estimates for each of these elements are shown below:
