How the numbers are kept Each figure stands as its source published it — wording, unit and date unchanged. If the Ledger estimates a figure itself, the page says so and gives the method. And if a series cannot be verified in a given week, the dashboard names it and leaves the seat empty rather than filling it with a guess.
