Personnel spending per FTE
$93K
personnel spending divided by full-time equivalents
A full-time equivalent is a measure of employment, not a headcount: two half-time employees are one FTE. Personnel spending includes benefits and pension contributions, so per FTE it is not an average salary.
Transfer payment programs, 2013-14
The grants, contributions and other transfers Canadian Polar Commission paid, program by program: $1.1M in all, against $1.1M for the transfer payments object above (the Public Accounts publish the two tables separately).

| Contributions to individuals, organizations, associations and institutions to support research and activities relating to the polar regionsPayments | Contribution | $10,000 |
| 2 programs | $1,096,000 | |
Contracts of $10,000 and under
Contracts this small are not published one by one: Treasury Board publishes each organization's totals, by calendar year, for contracts of $10,000 and under (their original value and their amendments) and for acquisition card purchases. They are the value of contracts entered into, not what was paid in a fiscal year, so they are not part of the net expenditure above, and the years are calendar years.
| Calendar year | Goods | Services | Construction | Acquisition cards | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | $18,763 | $21,477 | $0 | $460,023 | $500,263 |
