Only rarely have such surveys been undertaken at periodic intervals with similar questions so that the effects of changes in policies and programs…

However, the economics of auditing work counts and man-hours precludes minute controls. Therefore, varying degrees of probable validity exist in the data element counts. Machine counts or documents provide the most reliable source of count and are considered controlled counts. Lower-level counts consist of those …
