23k bu is priced on the board with the basis still open, so the average price below is an estimate on those bushels rather than a number. Somebody has to ring the elevator and fix it, or tell Rhonda Klein plainly that this part of the position is not fully priced yet.

TODO: the contact history in this demo is synthetic. These are invented conversations and they must be cleared before anybody outside the desk sees this page. The record itself is the point: it is the least glamorous thing in the product and probably the most valuable.
