I'm curious, is there any website or program that can simulate the crafting outcome? For instance, I want to see what strength res I would need to get +87/88/89 BSNs. I know SWG are like "we dont realise source code blah blah" but usually fan sites are pretty good for this sort of thing (like the DNA lab simulator).
Or is there a formula for working out the strength of BSNs from the res?

The formula is 50/30/20 OQ/PE/FL, then weighted by the amounts of each resource. So far that has held up under testing, so I am pretty confident about the numbers.
I am considering writing a little JavaScript page, but I haven't done much with JS so I might not succeed. If I get it working I will make the code available. (or if someone beats me to it)

yeah i understand the weighting of the resources but i dont understand how I get the final bonus number?

The final bonus is a percentage which is applied to 30 and added to the base for that additive.
e.g.: BSN range is 60+(1-30) so a 67% result would equal 60 + (67% of 30) = 80
Base value on each Additive is MSN(30) BSN(60) INN(90)

i made a spreadsheet and something has gone wrong. using the resources that i use to make +86's BSNs, it says that I should only be able to make 85's (84.7 to be exact). i dry runned your previous calculation of using 67% and that is consistent with your result, so i'm not sure whats gone on here. anyone got a working spreadsheet they could send me or perhaps i could send someone this spreadsheet so they could debug it?

The problem is you are not weighting the result based on the number of resources.
Using your numbers, for example:
MN: 15 Meat + 35 Flora = [(15 * 704) + (35 * 940)] / 50 = 896 --> 89.6% = +56
BSN:20 Meat + 60 Flora = [(20 * 704) + (60 * 940)] / 80 = 881 --> 88.1% = +86
INN: 20 Meat + 90 Flora = [(20 * 704) + (90 * 940)] / 110 = 897 --> 89.7% = +116
