Where the Money Goes
Of the $267,570 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $254,670 (95%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.
Why this number?
Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
Show formula
Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).
