Federal extramural expenditures – On science and technology and its components, by performing sector
Table summary
This table displays the federal extramural expenditures on science and technology and its components by performing sector. The row headers divide the table into three sections. The first section shows information for the total sciences and technology expenditures by performing sector. The second section provides research and development expenditures by performing sector. The third section provides related scientific activities expenditures by performing sector. The column headers provide preliminary intention data in millions of dollars for the current reference year and data for the four previous years, the last two years' being revised. A footnote indicates that 836 million dollars is allocated to science and technology activities from the Knowledge Infrastructure Program, which is a two-year, two billion dollar program that began in 2009/2010. A note indicates that the information provided is as reported by the funder, the federal government, and not by the performers. A second note indicates that components may not add to totals due to rounding.
