135 of 135 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 114. 18 columns: stub + "All C cases" (Number, Percent of total closed, Percent of total method) + seven two-column panels (CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CG, CP; each Number and Percent of total closed). "Total number of cases closed", column "All C cases / Percent of total method" holds a printed dash rule ("--"), transcribed as an empty cell per the dash-rule convention. Footnote markers appear on the caption ("Fiscal Year 2009^1", excluded as caption text) and on the heading "CD cases^2", but no footnote text is printed on this crop; the caption states the table is "Page 1 of 2", so the footnotes and the remaining body rows are presumably on the continuation page. The body ends at "Withdrawal" with a double rule, i.e. the crop is complete for this page but the table itself continues. Row indentation is preserved only in wording, not in the cells: "Informal settlement" through "After hearing opened, before issuance of administrative law judge's decision" and "Formal settlement" through its sub-rows are subdivisions of "Agreement of the parties"; "Administrative law judge's decision" through "Supreme Court action" are subdivisions of "Compliance with"; "Stipulated decision"/"Consent decree" appear twice (under "Before opening of hearing" and under "After hearing opened"), and "Adopting administrative law judge's decision (no exceptions filed)"/"Contested" sit under "Board decision". No doubtful digits; all values read cleanly at this resolution.
p. 115. This crop is page 2 of 2 of Table 7. The first five rows ("Before issuance of complaint" through "After Board or court decision") are indented sub-rows of a method heading (evidently the settlement/adjustment group) whose label row is printed on page 1 and is not on this image; their "Percent of total method" values sum to 100.0, confirming they belong to one method block. Two cells in the "All C cases / Percent of total method" column are printed as a short dash "--" rather than a number: the "10(k) actions (see Table 7A for details of dispositions)" row and the "Otherwise (compliance with order of administrative law judge or Board not achieved—firm went out of business)" row. Following the dash-rule convention these are transcribed as empty cells; a reader should know the source shows "--" (not applicable) there, not a blank. Row indentation (not representable in the grid): "Dismissal" is flush left and is the total of the seven rows that follow it; "Adopting administrative law judge's decision (no exceptions filed)" and "Contested" are indented one further level under "By Board decision". The two final rows ("10(k) actions...", "Otherwise...") are flush-left method rows with no sub-rows. All cross-panel sums check against the "All C cases / Number" column (e.g. 5,530+1,886+81+34+6+12+15 = 7,564; 3,681+2,534+63+17+22+5+10 = 6,332; 3,739+2,546+63+17+22+5+10 = 6,402), and the Dismissal sub-rows sum to 6,402, so no misprints were detected. The heading "CD cases" carries a raised 2 footnote marker; the caption's raised 1 marker is on the omitted caption line.
