The social media department provides 8% of its time to member services, 14% to North/South America groups, 30% to Asia groups, 24% to Africa/Australia groups, and 24% to European groups. The member services department provides 17% of its time to the social media department, 22% to North/South America groups, 19% to Asia, 16% to Africa/Australia, and 26% to Europe. If the step method is used to assign costs from the support departments to the operating units, and if social media is ranked first between the two support departments, what percentage of each support department's cost will be allocated to each operating/geographic group? (Round answers for member services to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
