unit economics accuracy importance? how to deal with this

so I am modeling a company with unit economics that takes revenue daily off of contracts (and the rates that are recorded can change based on the efficiency of the days work), but only records contracts monthly. Since I don't have the start or end date, and also since some contracts are confidential, there is some inaccuracy in unit economics. For example, between historical years of 2021 and 2022, there is around 5 million unaccounted for, out of a company w/ around 3-4 billion revenue. The thing is, its likely thats just from 1 days work that was miscounted / overestimated. 

Is this ok to just forecast this forward as an error, given the variability of these rates and lack of info. Or is this a sin?
