This is a nearly universal accounting practice. After all, benefits cost money and they have to be accounted for in any annual report. (The title, "Fringe Benefits", is probably not commonly used, though.) 40% is fairly light. I know that the standard benefits package for University of California employees is more than that. It includes medical insurance or at least a big part of it), non-industrial disability, dental, eye care, retirement, social security (for most employees), sick leave, annual leave, workers' compensation, unemployment insurance and many more small items. (Yes, UC has above average benefits.) I don't see anything inappropriate about the ARIN numbers. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer E-mail: [email protected] Phone: +1 510 486-8634
