I have absolutely no idea where I am. If this is in the wrong section, I profusely apologise!

Basically, I've been set a task at work and it involves a few calculations of figures. Not exactly my area, but related to my area. My math skills are pretty much non-existent and I just need someone to help talk me through it, see if my existing calculations are right and if not, help me get them right.

Please?? Need help!
