Conclusion on savings

Question

Without RFDI we only needed 1,35 FTE but we had 4 employees operating still.

So, even though it´s true that in terms of time needed to scan the books, we do need almost less an intire FTE, isn´t it too optimistic to state that we are saving the equivalent to the salary of one employee (30000€)?

Wouldn´t at least a proportion be more much realistic?
