Most people figure that the actual cost of an employee runs

I was wondering about your "$100K including overheads". I guess this
explains it, sort of. I mean, part of your explanation is backwards,
but I guess the gist is: The salary is only a part of the total cost
of a programmer; there are also "overheads" (presumably to pay for the
space they take up, the energy they use, maintenance on their
equipment, etc.). So the salary would be somewhere between 40% and
100% of their total cost. Or, to turn it around, the total cost would
be between 100% and 250% of their salary.

So someone who makes $50K per year is, at your estimate, costing their
employer somewhere between $50K and $125K per year.
