## Settlement

Why this grade: Sales the lottery's own terminals record, posted by the regulator every day.
What it costs to move: Hard. It is the lottery's own sales record.
When the source is late: A month prints three days after it ends. If the file stops updating, the month stays open. A month the state never posts is void.
Precision: Whole dollars of the quick_draw column, summed over retailers and days.
