★ The money out FY2018/19 – FY2026 MFDP appropriation basis · US$
Where the money goes
Eleven sectors, eight economic classes, one investment plan — and a persistent habit of moving money from capital to operating costs after the budget is passed.
Liberia's national budget is published three ways at once: by sector, by economic class (what the money buys) and by budget class (recurrent against the Public Sector Investment Plan). Liberia Ledger holds all three for every stage the government prints — draft, approved, recast, estimated and actual — so each can be set against the others.

How the sector mix has shifted
SHARE OF TOTAL · EIGHT PERIODSEach sector's share of the national budget, from the last July–June year with an outturn to FY2025. Shares, not dollars, so the six-month transition period (dotted line) is comparable. The stage shown for each period is the most final the documents provide — hover for which.
FY2024 is shown on the FY2025 report's "approved recast" basis. The FY2024 budget book distributes the same US$738.9M total differently across sectors — about US$20M more in Public Administration — so sector figures for that year are not comparable across the two documents. D8 →
What the money buys: economic classification
FY2025 · TABLE 9 · P.31All spending, appropriated against disbursed. Domestic and foreign liabilities are debt service — financing in the IMF's terms, but an appropriation in Liberia's. The debt behind them has its own page →
The capital budget that was not spent on capital
DERIVED · TABLE 9 − TABLE 10The Public Sector Investment Plan is appropriated entirely as non-financial assets. Differencing all spending against recurrent-only spending shows what the PSIP money actually bought — a breakdown the report never prints.
Capital, raided twice
FY2024 · BOOK VS REPORTThe FY2024 budget book and the FY2025 performance report agree on FY2024's total to the dollar and disagree on what it bought. Hollow bars are the book; filled bars the report's "approved recast".
Recurrent against investment, sector by sector
FY2025 · APPENDIX 3 + TABLE 11A sector that is mostly payroll is judged on a different thing than one that is mostly projects. Appendix 3 is the only table that splits the two by sector: the label under each name is the share of that sector's budget that is PSIP.
