## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 6 of the 21 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 15 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 13 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per jurisdiction per legal form (unincorporated association, CASC, charity/CIO, incorporated association by state, 501(c)(7), company limited by guarantee): who must keep the accounts, what the treasurer is personally liable for, the annual filing and its deadline, the income threshold that changes the duty, the record-retention period, and the penalty for missing it - each quoted from the regulator's own page with its date. The derivation is the comparison a club officer cannot get anywhere: the same eight duties across ten regimes, and the thresholds side by side (£5,000 charity registration, £31/week CASC membership cap, $50,000 Form 990-N ceiling, five-year record retention in NSW).
