Here is an overview of the budgetary situation, according to information at the project office. Figures in $A but may have to be adjusted for the exchange rate at time of payment. For present purposes $A1 = 0.56 EURO = 1.35 DM = 1.5 hfl = 0.6 $US = 0.39 GBP = 1200 IL. For cost-equivalent manpower, to simplify dialogue with RSAA we adopt an hourly rate of $A40, and a month is taken to be 150 hours. Thus, one man-month is now $6000.

In the ASSETS table:

• `value' gives the true value if the funds have been converted, the estimated value if the funds are still in, or still partly in, the original currency
• `where is it' shows where the funds went, e.g. transferred to the central account at the AAO. These figures should agree with the accounting sheets received from Joan Wilcox.
• amounts paid directly from an institute account or still held by an institute are listed in the third column, whose total represents our total assets. This should agree with the `assets' shown further down the page.
• `amount in EURO' uses the exchange rates given above except for EURO accounts, where actual numbers are used if possible
