What every figure carries
- The franchisor's own filing
- The document itself, filed by the brand that sells the franchise. Not a directory, not a summary of one, and not a figure a model produced.
- The Item it came from
- Which Item of the filing the amount came from — Item 5 for the franchise fee, Item 6 for royalty and ad fund, Item 7 for the initial investment total — so the number can be checked against the page it was read off.
- The filing's issue date
- FDDs are refiled annually. A figure with no issue date beside it cannot be told apart from last year's.
