[[underlined]] Tables 1 and 2 [[/underlined]]. Table 1 contains general levels of dollar resources (or revenues) from various sources which the Institution projects will be necessary for the conduct of its operations. In a summary fashion, it incorporates estimates for inflation and pay increases associated with federal and trust operations of the Institution. Table 2 projects expenses by functional area of operation (Science, History and Art, etc.) along with the application of trust funds to such items as plant improvements; endowments; and special activities such as the Collections Acquisition, Scholarly Studies, and Education Programs. [[underlined]] Tables 3 through 10 [[/underlined]]. These contain detailed expense projections for the Institution's museums, galleries, and laboratories. For ease of presentation, expenses associated with the various administrative, financial, and support organizations of the Institution are grouped into three categories in Table 10: (1) Central Management Offices, (2) Specialized Administrative and Technical Offices, and (3) Facilities Offices. [[underlined]] Tables 11 and 12 [[/underlined]]. All major construction projects are included that are under way or being planned. For some future projects, detailed planning and estimating remain to be done (e.g., new quarters for the Anacostia Neighborhood Museum and base camp facilities at Mt. Hopkins for the Observatory) and the amounts as well as the possible sources of funding have not been fully determined. [[underlined]] Table 13 [[/underlined]]. Projections associated with equipping and operating the Quadrangle are consolidated in Table 13 to provide a summary of resources needed for this project through FY 1988. These estimates are under continuing review and will be revised periodically. [[underlined]] Table 14 [[/underlined]].
