Motivation[edit]

This is an empirical, precise piece of data for a company that can be charted and graphed over time as it changes or compared to other such companies and is useful for some statistical comparisons. Seems not to have been proposed. —Justin (koavf)TCM 09:51, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

For that we have estimated value (P8340) (which I proposed a while ago) so I  Oppose this proposal Germartin1 (talk) 08:05, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
