30 of 48 records enter the sum: those with a stated cost, excluding parent programmes (so they are not counted alongside their sub-projects), cancelled records and foreign purchases. Amounts are nominal, in prices from various years, with no inflation adjustment; those recorded in a foreign currency are converted at a fixed rate of EUR 4.30 / USD 4.00 / SEK 0.38. An inventory for comparison, not a ledger of state spending.
