Why this is not union spending

The states' constitutional share of union tax collections, devolved unconditionally. Deducted from receipts before the union spends anything, so it sits outside the expenditure perimeter entirely.

Where these figures come from

A document's title is its publication year, which is usually not the year of the figures inside it: an Expenditure Profile reports actuals for the year that ended two years earlier. The year printed beside each citation is the year the money was spent.
