What does it mean by 'above'? Is that a preposition?
On the other hand, the amount of money paid out on the remaining goods was higher in France. Above £350,000 was spent by the French on computers which was slightly more than the British who spent exactly £350,000.

I agree with Gary that is sounds unnatural. A better way would be to say "More than £350,000..." or "Upwards of £350,000..." But as others have pointed out, this is the intended meaning, I think.
