Cash flow question

In the screen shot below I'm seeing conflicting numbers. In the upper right it says I have 49884 cash on hand and a positive flow of 5888. However in the Empire Summary it says I only have 41K on hand and a negative 5K cash flow. Sorry the numbers are hard to read in the shot. Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding the numbers? Should those numbers match?

Also a few days later my cash flow drops to -11K and after absorbing an independent colony into my empire a few weeks after that it drops to something like -40K cash flow! I'm still looking at that to figure out why.

Thanks.

That's very bizarre indeed, could you upload a save that shows that in action please?

I reloaded the file to make sure it was still an issue and this time the numbers match up.  Strange.  I'll watch for it and upload a file if I can replicate the problem.

The numbers at the top-right of the screen only get updated every few seconds, so you might just be seeing a momentary mismatch, where the values in the main screen haven't updated yet.
