Wholesale unleaded and diesel are the terminal gate prices fuel companies pay at the Sydney terminal, before freight, the retailer’s costs and margin. Weekly averages. Terminal gate prices: Australian Institute of Petroleum.

Canberra retail prices compared with the Sydney terminal as a geographic proxy. This is not the delivered wholesale cost at individual stations.

Each common date counts once. Retail is the mean of the saved daily capital averages, not the station-day-weighted headline mean. TGP uses the same dates and carries the last published value for at most six subsequent calendar days. Retail prices can already include carried station prices. Means and spreads are rounded separately. The gross spread is not profit or a causal explanation. Retail carry limit: 30 days. Unmatched dates are excluded; common days are not a station or sales coverage percentage.

Worked out the same way as the table above.

The listed count is the inventory used at build time, not a historical census of every operating station. One station selling two fuels on one day contributes two station–fuel–days. Fuel-specific counts must not be added to obtain a distinct station total. Distinct stations with eligible input prices, before the daily publication minimum. Calendar days describe the window, not new observations. A dash means the saved edition does not supply that count.
