Am I doing this right?

Okay so my TDEE is 2261 with moderate exercise 3-5 days a week, so 2261 times 7 days a week would be 15,827 so if I eat 1850 calories a day 7 days a week that totals to 12,950 calories making my caloric deficit 2,877 a week. Thus if I burn 1,000 calories a week exercising then my deficit for the week will be 3,877 which would mean I'd lose a pound. Now if all of my calculations are correct, lets say one day I exercise and burn 300 calories then do I eat the calories back so I net at 1850 or do I not?
