Setting N1 thrust on final

Hi Guys

I am line training right now, my friend has this new instructor he decided a new way of setting N1 thrust for target speed when he DESELECT SPEED to him.

What he does is to take ground speed and divide it into two and add/substract (can;t thin which is which) 5 from it...this gives you a number around thrust N1 you need to start with.

Has anyone heard of this technique?

Please feel free to expand and fine tune this technique.
