Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
Spanish term or phrase: Idea (in this context)
I'm translating an internal bank presentation which includes a number of tables showing Adjusted Gross Revenue in different areas of debt recovery. The headings of the columns of numbers provided are:

Ppto (ie Presupuesto)
Meta
Real
Idea

I understand the first three (estimate, target, real), but what could this fourth column heading be? The numbers underneath themselves don't give any clues. Sometimes the number in the 'idea' column is higher than in the 'meta' column, sometimes it's lower. What am I missing here?
