jbes-tables-figures
Use when designing the simulation tables and figures for a Journal of Business & Economic Statistics (JBES) methods paper so size, power, coverage, and the empirical results are legible to both statisticians and applied economists. Improves exhibits; it does not change results.

# Tables & Figures (jbes-tables-figures)
## When to trigger
- Simulation tables are dense and a reader cannot read off whether the method controls size
- Size, power, coverage, bias, and RMSE are scattered instead of side-by-side
- Figures lack confidence bands, or compare against no baseline
- Exhibit notes do not state the DGP, sample size, replications, or nominal level
## What JBES exhibits must communicate
A JBES paper is judged by method experts who read the tables as the evidence. Exhibits carry two distinct jobs: the **Monte Carlo exhibits** that establish the method's statistical properties, and the **empirical exhibits** that establish relevance on real data. Both must be readable by a statistician *and* an applied economist, since the journal bridges the two communities.
