Table 3 shows the adjustment for under‐reporting. This adjustment increased the total cost for suicides and nonfatal attempts by 55.0% for males (i.e., [$74,518–$48,064]/$48,064), 81.8% for females (i.e., [$18,937–$10,414]/$10,414), and 59.8% (i.e., [$93,454–$58,478]/$58,478) overall compared with unadjusted numbers, raising the 2013 cost of suicidal acts to $93.5 billion.
