==Hints==

Ask teams what they have done, probing details if necessary (often this will get a team unstuck by themselves).


=== Intended Solve Process ===

# Notice all the times are valid non-military times.
# Solve for the one missing number (Rent = 3:02 AM) using standard clock arithmetic
# Notice that the top section corresponds to AM (“Accumulated Monies”) and the bottom section corresponds to PM (“Paid Monies”). Some players may especially clued into this because “Accumulated Monies” and “Paid Monies” are ''not'' standard
# Notice that there are exactly 12 words in each section. (“Timeline-Adjustments” and “Timeline-Restoration” each count as one word since they have hyphens.) This should suggest 12 hours.
# Notice that the income statement is printed in a fixed-width font. This suggests that counting characters is important.
# Now the puzzle becomes a simple look up: for example, “m:n AM” means look up the n-th character of the m-th word in the AM section.
