User Guide Dollar Units

bettinardi opened this issue · 2 comments

The user guide needs to specify the year that the dollars need to be in for any dollar input (income, tolls...). The tolls state 2010:

But the income tabulations are not specified:

A question was just raised as to what year the model estimation represents, and that shouldn't the income brackets represent the estimation data year.

The income tabulations state $2010.

The parking costs have missing year detail too:

All points in the user guide that talk about dollars need to ensure that the correct dollar year is referenced.
