The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 130 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: the advertised monthly price per provider per package tier, normalised to a common basis (transactions a month, bank accounts, whether payroll and tax filing are inside the fee), giving the median, the quartiles and the cheapest published plan per business size and per jurisdiction; the SHARE of providers publishing a price at all against those that quote only after a call, which is the figure the review sites never compute because they take the vendor's own band; repriced-since the previous read",
