Hi Neel,

I do not have a direct answer to your question but here are some annual reports 
for SIG conferences: 
https://www.acm.org/special-interest-groups/volunteer-resources/sgb/annual-reports/sig-governing-board-fy-2021-annual-reports
 that put out some numbers on the over all expenses of the conferences. 

Cheers,
Apoorv
