I am not sure what you mean by "want to maintain an org unit for this approval process".

Assuming you have your organization structure in place - whether that is a full organization structure or one 
with only the people who may be chosen as approvers you can solve this without maintaining any amount 
limits outside the classifications which determine the relevant release strategy.

Create release codes corresponding to the required authorizations, and check if the user you identify has 
authorization for the release code that needs approval. If the authorization check fails, climb the 
organization hierarchy and check the authorization again. Continue until you reach the CEO if necessary - 
the CEO must be authorized to approve everything, as the authorization to approve is normally delegated 
from the CEO to lower level managers up to certain limits.
