109 of 123 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out. 3 cells break a sum: 'Complaints issued', column 3: prints 3,609, columns 4 to 13 add to 3,593; 'Decisions by administrative la', column 3: prints 1,030, columns 4 to 13 add to 1,029; 'Initial ULP decisions', column 3: prints 973, columns 4 to 13 add to 972.
p. 190. The table has 14 printed columns (stub + 13 value columns); the "CD" heading spans the two columns "Jurisdictional disputes" and "Unfair labor practices". Many cells hold a printed dash rule (——) rather than a number; per instructions these are transcribed as "". They occur in: the 10(k) row (every column except "Cases in which formal actions taken", "Total formal actions taken" and CD-Jurisdictional disputes), and in the CD-Jurisdictional disputes column for the rows Complaints issued, Backpay specifications issued, Backpay hearings, Other hearings, Decisions by administrative law judges total, Initial ULP decisions (ALJ), Backpay decisions (ALJ), Supplemental decisions (ALJ), Upon consent of parties Initial decisions and Supplemental decisions, Adopting-ALJ Initial ULP decisions and Backpay decisions, and Contested Decisions based on stipulated record, Supplemental ULP decisions and Backpay decisions. The caption carries footnote marker 1 ("Fiscal Year 1984^1"), but the footnote text itself is not visible — the crop ends just below the table's bottom rule, cutting off the footnote block. Hence `footnotes` is empty. Three row labels repeat under different section headings ("Supplemental decisions", "Initial ULP decisions", "Backpay decisions"); they are distinguished only by their indentation and the section line above them ("Upon consent of parties", "Adopting administrative law judges' decisions (no exceptions filed)", "Contested"). Indentation itself is not encoded in the labels. All column sums are internally consistent as printed (e.g. hearings 872+60+16=948; ALJ decisions 1,039+71+21=1,131; Board decisions 143+0+444+0+1,379+35+48+74=2,123), so no misprints are suspected. The scan is slightly speckled but all digits were legible.
