Compute budgets
Each BU has a monthly Vertex AI and BigQuery compute budget in MYR. Platform usage draws it down at the published chargeback rates. Publish something other BUs reuse and part of what they are charged comes back to your budget.

What draws the budget down
The same published rates the chargeback journal uses, so a BU can forecast its own month.
| Inference calls | MYR 12.00 | per 1,000 calls |
| Compute hours | MYR 9.50 | per compute-hour (1 GPU-hour = 4) |
| Storage | MYR 95.00 | per TB-month |
| GenAI tokens | MYR 6.00 | per 1M Gemini tokens |
| Sandbox CPU | free | included in every budget |
Budget holders are alerted at 80%, 90%, 100%. Past 100% workloads keep running; the overspend is journalled and the BU's head of finance is asked to approve a top-up. Using your own BU's assets draws your budget like any other usage; the rebate applies only when another BU reuses them.
What publishing earns back
25%
of what another BU is charged for using your asset returns to your budget, funded from the central platform pool. It is budget, not cash, and it is the reason to publish.

Why budgets as well as chargeback. Chargeback tells a BU what it spent; a budget tells it what it can spend before anyone has to ask. Budgets are set with Group Finance in the annual cycle, carry forward one month, and are the lever Group Data & AI uses to reward BUs that publish reusable assets. Approved vendors hold no budget: they are paid under licence, as shown on Chargeback.
