How did you get almost 50% for management when the category including management was 39%? They spent $283,739,000 on salaries and benefits. $110,767,000 was in the management and general category.

You're right - my at a glance ballpark math put it closer to 50% than 33% but looks like it's on the other end of that spectrum. Can't edit now but... still high.
How much do comparable companies spend on management, administration, and marketing?
I'm not aware of any comparable companies.
What would be a reasonable percentage then? And how to determine it without a frame of reference?
