Yes taken from another website but very interesting
Cardiff City turnover and wages figures 2000 to 2011.
By The other Bob Wilson on June 30, 2012
The piece on our Admin expenses costs I did yesterday provoked some comment on the messageboard I posted it on (more on that later), but I accept that it is hard to put the figures into context without more information, so I’m going to add our wage costs and turnover for the same period to the equation in this piece to try and get a better understanding of what has been happening at our club over the past eleven years.
I’m using the “wages and salaries” figure shown under the heading Staff numbers and costs in the accounts;-
y/e 31/5/01 (what is now League 2) = £3,319,876
As for turnover, the figure comes from the Consolidated profit and loss account for the period covered;-
y/e 31/5/01 = £2,754,367
% of wages to turnover = 120%
y/e 31/5/02 (what is now League 1)
wages = £6,043,479
turnover = £6,317,032
% of wages to turnover = 96%
y/e 31/5/03 (what is now League 1)
wages = £8,390,416
turnover = £7,252,029
% of wages to turnover = 116%
y/e 31/5/04 (what is now the Championship)
wages = £9,781,123
turnover = £9,550,781
% of wages to turnover = 102%
y/e 31/5/05 (what is now the Championship)
wages (from this year “social security costs” and “other pension costs” appeared in the accounts, so the figure I give from now will include them) = £10,569,727
turnover = £8,182,419
% of wages to turnover = 129%
y/e 31/5/06 (what is now the Championship) – Peter Ridsdale arrives
wages = £8,087,739
turnover = £8,008568
% of wages to turnover = 101%
N.B. There was also a payment of £201,745 to W H Sports Group for “consultancy services”
y/e 31/5/07 (what is now the Championship) – Sam Hammam leaves
wages = £9,616,754
turnover = £10,677,459
% of wages to turnover = 90%
N.B. There was also a payment of £534,490 to W H Sports Group for “consultancy services” and there was a bonus of £500,000 paid to Peter Ridsdale for his work in getting the new ground approved and reducing the Langston loan note debt.
y/e 31/5/08 (what is now the Championship) – FA Cup Final appearance
