All publications which report to ABC under the following membership sectors report their audit periods according to periods commencing on a Monday and ending on a Sunday, regardless of the fall of dates. In addition, the reporting of data by month is done in a similar fashion. This means that audit months do not reflect actual calendar months and six month periods do not reflect actual month start and end dates. The table below gives details of the weeks applied to each audit month and the months applied to each audit period.
Membership sectors reporting to a week number standard are:
- National newspapers
- Regional newspapers
- ABC bulk distribution
For a six month audit period:
- weekly titles will have 26 issues
- Monday - Friday titles will have 130 issues
- Monday - Saturday titles will have 156 issues
- Monday - Sunday titles will have 182 issues
