How to read this site

Figures are shown as recorded in public sources, without commentary on whether any amount is good or bad. Red is used only to mark a deficit, overspend or cost overrun; green only marks a surplus or under-budget result. Abbreviated amounts (for example $2.4bn) show the exact figure on hover or tap.

If this is useful, a dollar or two helps keep it running.
