Formulation · President's Budget FY2027 · seven display tables
What the Department is asking for, down to the budget line
The "-1" exhibits are the request as it is displayed: one table per appropriation title, each carrying three fiscal years — FY2025 actual, FY2026 enacted and the FY2027 request — in the hierarchy the money is structured by. Every figure here excludes the rows that restate money counted elsewhere in the same book, and what was excluded is set out below rather than left implied.

Limitations A display table is what is being asked for, not what was executed or enacted; the FY(pb-1) column is an enacted position as of the book's own cut-off and is restated in the following book. The seven exhibits do not add to a Departmental topline: P-1R restates equipment already inside P-1, and RF-1 covers revolving funds outside the appropriation titles. Discretionary is derived as the year's total minus its mandatory columns, because several exhibits publish alternative measures of the same money side by side rather than components of a sum.
The FY2027 request
Total obligation authority across the six exhibits that carry money. The P-1R is excluded from every total on this page because it restates Guard and Reserve equipment already inside the P-1 lines.
These six tables do not add to a Departmental topline and are not presented as one. They are the appropriation titles the Department displays; revolving funds sit beside the titles rather than inside them, and a topline additionally reflects transfers, receipts and financing that no display table carries.
Exhibit by exhibit
Each row is one display table. "Published" is the total the workbook prints on its own "Total of Displayed Rows" line; "counted" is what enters a total here; the difference is the memo restatement, and control PB-01 asserts the three agree to the dollar.
| Exhibit | FY2025 actual | FY2026 enacted | FY2027 counted | Discretionary | Mandatory | Memo, not counted | Published total |

All 21 sheet-years across this book tie exactly to the totals the workbooks print on themselves.
The request, drilled into
Expand a row to open the level beneath it: exhibit, component, appropriation, budget activity, sub-activity or activity group, and budget line item. A level the exhibit does not use — the R-1 has no sub-activity, the C-1 no activity group — is skipped rather than drawn empty. Opening a budget line shows the rows behind it, cost type by cost type, with memo rows visible and struck through rather than hidden.
Appropriation title first — the order the budget is displayed in.

What is not counted, and why
Four kinds of row restate money already counted elsewhere in the same book. They are kept and flagged rather than dropped, because a total that silently omits a whole exhibit cannot be explained. One kind that looks identical is counted: the M-1's "Less Reimbursables" rows are negative offsets the published total includes.
| Rule | What it is | Line-years | FY2027 amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| advance procurement subtotal | The Advance Procurement (CY) subtotal of a line’s own by-year detail rows | 22 | $18.5B |
| p1r exhibit | The whole P-1R exhibit — Guard and Reserve equipment already inside the P-1 lines | 165 | $6.6B |
| c1 reconciliation breakout | A C-1 Mandatory Reconciliation breakout of a project already in that year’s sheet | 24 | $2.7B |
| memo cost type | A cost type marked (MEMO NON ADD) inside a line otherwise flagged Add | 11 | $2.6B |
| include in toa n | Marked Include in TOA = N — outside total obligation authority | 15 | $1.1B |
| outside toa indefinite | The O-1 Indefinite Accounts block, which the workbook itself publishes as a separate sheet | 5 | $45.0M |
$31.5B set aside in FY2027. Counting the display tables as published — which is what a naive sum of the seven sheets does — would put the request that much above what the exhibits themselves foot to.
The rules are not one rule. Include in TOA = N means outside total obligation authority on the R-1 and identifies the Indefinite Accounts block on the O-1 — where the workbook settles the question itself by publishing “OM Title” and “OM Title plus Indefinite” as two sheets whose difference is exactly those rows. The same flag on the M-1 marks five negative “Less Reimbursables” offsets that the published M-1 total includes. Applying one rule across the seven exhibits is wrong in two directions at once, and nothing in the column itself says so.
