Problems with calculating the value of a bounty in BB

Hey everyone , i am currently studying the PKO section of Pads course and i am having trouble to follow the calculation of pwndidi. I understand the concept that a starting bounty is worth 1/4 of a starting stack and i can easily calculate that into BBs when i see the blind level . But he gives no example or calculation when we are deeper in the MTT and have multiple starting bounties on how to calculate that into BBs . Any help appreciated , thank you

maybe i can help myself, please let me know if my thinking is wrong. So in my understanding we have to multiply how many starting bounties we have by the percentage of what that bounty is worth compared to the remaining field size. F.ex: 5% of the field is left and that translates into one starting bounty is worth 38% . If we have 4 bounties that translates into 152% which is (50k starting stack) 76k chips . Now all to do is divide that number by the actual blind level ( in his example 15k/30k) , so roughly 2.5bb. Is that correct? Thanks again
