At most companies, lying on your application is immediate cause for
termination if they ever find out.

It is my understanding that, in the US, potential employers can ask your
previous employer to *verify* a figure; however, the previous employer
cannot offer it up if you have not provided a figure to verify. In other
words, it would be much better to not give a figure at all than it would be
to make one up--the first they can't do anything about, while they can prove
you're lying with the latter.
