Hi,
personally i disagree. ranking and especially ranking at those levels you talked about is a very personal subject (or at least in my OPINION should be one). and therefore i would expect the person in question to pay for this by him/herself.
it is between the teacher and student (which in this case is your teacher) and should be between them.
just my opinion

PS: maybe the dojo profits from a higher ranking teacher, but regardless of rank, there are good and bad teachers and good and not so good aikidoka...
