NYC DOE expense budget vs total funds committed to DOE ($billions, 2022 adjusted)

"DOE total committed funds" means the DOE expense budget, plus debt payments, pension contributions, and healthcare costs allocated to the DOE elsewhere in the city budget. The "total funds committed" number also incorporates money received by the DOE as a result of intracity sales/interfund agreements.
