ACCOUNTANT

Accountant as stored text, 2012 as cycle

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Accountant and 2012 — sum to $666,490. 808 itemized contributions and 266 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the Accountant hub nor the 2012 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Accountant is a self-reported title, not a state-board licensee file. Two hundred sixty-six donors and 808 lines in 2012 matched that word. People who typed CPA sit in that other bucket. Named accounting-firm employers sit on firm pages. CPA, CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT, ACCOUNTING, and named firms such as KPMG or PWC are other keys. This page is the one-word Accountant string.

5.3% of the Accountant roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $12,687,400 ($12.7 million). The 2012 slice of $666,490 is about 5.3% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 94.7%. Treating 2012 as the Accountant FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $12,687,400 as the denominator for the 5.3% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2012 from being folded silently into $12,687,400.
