Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our 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).
13 of the 41 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 28 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; 110 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the price of every HMRC-recognised filing product per return type (SA100, SA800, SA900, CT600, VAT) normalised to one number - cost per return filed - across the vendors that publish one: the median, the cheapest, how many of the recognised products publish a price at all and how many are free, and what moved since the last read.
HMRC publishes who is recognised and never what they charge; the vendors publish a price and never the comparison
110 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
