The table compares the projected costing figures over the next five years in American dollars for three environmental projects aiming at sustainable forestry, with the pie chart providing the expectation for the expenditure distribution in the first year.
Overall, there is a remarkable fluctuation of each project in the 5-year period, whereas the pie chart expects that Salaries account for the largest proportion (fifty percent) among those expenses.
As is illustrated by the table, the projected costing for South-east Africa ranks first with 30 million in year 1, then reaching 40 and 50 million by the fourth and fifth year, respectively. Second on the list is Central America, which is nearly one-quarter of the former, commencing at 20 million USD and sharply decreasing before leveling off at 5 million USD for the rest of the period. Ranked in last place every year in the period is West Africa, which witnesses a significant reduction over the two years, plummeting from 10.5 million USD in the first year to 3.5 million USD in Year 5.
Regarding the pie chart, Salaries are the majority of the projected expenditure in the first year, accounting for 50 percent. However, the pattern is the complete reverse with it comes to Training and Office expenses, including roughly equal proportions with 10 percent. Set-up costs make up a second place, with 30 percent of those.
