    Was 2002 the last time the organization conducted a survey of members for the purpose of publishing them like this? APA was still called ARA back then. I was speaking with a fellow member who thinks there is a newer one.

    ***EDIT 10/19/22***
    See Mark Conde's reply below - he was right, although the year of the latest report was 2018. Thanks to Sara Dethloff of the APA for sending me a copy. I have uploaded the 2018 PDF in the "Business Operations" community. Very useful info for benchmarking your own numbers against your peers - although remember this info is from 2018.

    There was a research project conducted in or around 2016.
    It had price info and lots of other demographic information.
