Recovery Act Spending One Year Out

Its been a while since I checked the recovery act website the most current spending totals there were updated march 5th toaling 291 billion.



Interpolating over the period when I last checked and the current reported total 63% of the allocated funds have yet to be spent. A linear interpolation also shows a slow down in the money spent per month but the spending probably is not linear. For example the Holidays would makes December/January slow months.

According to their timeline accounting work for the period of november thru february is due soon which may alter the totals. If anyone has a place on the web with more detail on the month to month spending let me know in a comment.
