What Wodonga Wire did to the published figures

Calculation
observed ERP 2025 minus the straight-line value between the published 2021 and 2026 projection points
Applied to
3 published figures

The state publishes four points and no annual path. The straight line between two of them is this site's reading, not the publisher's, and the projection is a planning assumption rather than a target.

This page exists so the figure on Wodonga in Numbers can be checked without taking Wodonga Wire's word for it. Where the publisher's own page has moved or been withdrawn, the preserved copy above is what Wodonga Wire read, with the hash it had when it was read — it is not the publisher's current page and is not presented as one.
