Notes: spending includes only incremental costs, those additional funds that are expended due to the war. For example, soldiers' regular pay is not included but combat pay is included. Potential future costs, such as future medical care for soldiers and veterans wounded in the war, are not included. These numbers do not account for the wars being deficit-financed or that taxpayers will need to make additional interest payments on the national debt due to these deficits. These figures are for the U.S. To estimate the "contribution" that your own country is making I guess you can multiply by the number of your own troops divided by U.S. ones.
