So if I would pay $100 a night in a personal trip, I should be fine spending up to $10000/night of company money? I don't think that would fly at most companies.
Edit: Unless you're a C-level executive, I guess. But then you'd probably be fine spending 10k for a personal trip, too.

Yup. etc. Those are probably in the range of about a factor fo 4x-5x. This also holds a little better if I talk about lab equipment. I have wasted a lot of time trying to do measurements with $100-ish pieces of equipment when I should have bought the $10K piece of lab-grade equipment that I then use for other projects as well. Now I try to optimize that better.
