refigures
Reworks the numbers
Refigures means to figure again—to recalculate, reconsider, or reimagine something.
Someone might refigure expenses after finding an error, or refigure their approach to a problem after initial failure: She refigured the budget when costs came in higher than expected.
The word can also mean to reshape or reconceive in a more abstract sense: The novel refigures traditional romance narratives.
