Haha, I bet the manager is scratching their head over this one. Maybe they need to hire a wizard to fix the report!

Ooh, the 'Weighted' utilization setting could be the way to go. That might help consolidate the numbers correctly.

Hmm, I'm not sure the work calendar adjustment would fix this. Seems like a problem with the way the subtotal is being calculated.

I'm not sure about that, maybe creating a Summary Level formula could also work to correct the subtotal calculation.

This question is really tricky! I think the key is to understand how the utilization calculation is being done. The report seems to be double-counting the resource's time.
