An LD-2 reports one money figure for the whole filing, covering every part of government it named. The dollar amounts here are the spend of filings that named Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), not money spent lobbying it. Money counts the latest version of each filing only; filing counts include ones a later amendment restated.
