Hopefully you're not this guy, Cecil, but I wouldnt feel comfortable going on vacation with someone as calculating as this
But to answer this question, no, the sofa guy should NOT even consider asking to pay less than 1/3 of the accommodation

Went to a friend's house a few years back for a UFC night. Not really into it, but getting together with friends is always a good time. Bring 10 bucks for the PPV he says, no problem.
Halfway through, he's hungry and asks if he should order pizza. Sure. Pizza shows up, and like you said, he literally had it figured out to the penny. "That's gonna be $8.37 each fellas" or whatever it is. Here's a $10, don't worry about the change, christ.
He's always bitchy and whines about everything, probably why our circle of friends doesn't include him anymore.
I have a few buddies, we never worry about this stuff. You're buying beer for jam night tonight? Cool, I'll get the box next time. We don't count pennies because we are fair to each other, our friends. Long run, it works out so why sweat it.
