BUDGET ENFORCEMENT ACT PREVIEW REPORT The Budget Enforcement Act of 1990 (BEA), which was enacted into law as part of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA 1990), contained procedures designed to enforce last year's deficit reduction agreement. The BEA extended and substantially revised the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (commonly known as Gramm-RudmanHollings or G-R-H). In addition, it amended the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, altering the congressional budget process, and established scorekeeping guidelines for measuring compliance with the BEA's requirements. The BEA divides the budget into two mutually exclusive categories—discretionary programs, on the one hand, and direct spending and receipts, on the other. For 1991 through 1995, the BEA limits discretionary spending and establishes a "pay-as-you-go" requirement that legislation changing direct spending and receipts must, in total, be at least deficit neutral. Deficit targets, which were the sole focus of the old G-R-H law, are retained under the BEA. To enforce its requirements, the BEA continues to rely on sequesters—automatic, across-the-board reductions of budgetary resources. But BEA sequesters would be limited to the category where the violation occurs. As under the old G-R-H law, both OMB and the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) must independently prepare sequester reports on specified dates. CBO submits its reports to OMB and Congress. Five days after the CBO reports are transmitted, OMB submits its reports to the President and Congress. The OMB reports are used to determine if a sequester is required, and they serve as the basis for sequestration orders issued by the President. The schedule for the sequestration reports and Presidential orders are in the accompanying timetable. The preview, update, and final sequestration reports are themselves composed of three reports, each relating to a different type of sequester: discretionary, pay-asyou-go, and deficit. In addition, the OMB reports must include an explanation of the differences between the OMB and CBO estimates. The preview report must use the economic and technical assumptions underlying the President's budget submission. The OMB update and final reports must also use these same economic and technical assumptions. Estimates in the update and final reports can only be revised to reflect laws enacted since the preview report. Under the old G-R-H law, OMB initial and final reports used revised economic and technical assumptions, consistent with the updated assumptions in the Mid-Session Review of the Budget The BEA has made other changes in the process as well. For the current year, a "within-session" sequester report is now required if supplemental appropriations are enacted before July 1st and cause a breach of the current year discretionary limits. For the budget year, the initial Presidential sequester order is no longer required, and the final report and final Presidential order are submitted after the session of Congress has ended instead of on a fixed date.

As required by the BEA, this OMB preview report includes estimates of discretionary, pay-as-you-go, and deficit sequestration based on current law. This information is presented below. Discretionary Sequestration Report Discretionary programs are, in general, those that have their program levels established annually through the appropriations process. The scorekeeping guidelines accompanying the BEA identify accounts with discretionary resources. The BEA limits budget authority and outlays available for discretionary programs each year through 1995. Appropriations that cause either the budget authority or outlay limits to be exceeded will trigger a sequester to eliminate any such breach. There is no requirement that the full amount available under the discretionary limits be appropriated. For 1991-1993, limits are specified for three categories of discretionary programs: defense, international, and domestic. The limits on each of these three categories are enforced independently. Thus savings in one category cannot be used to increase spending in another. Similarly, a breach of a category limit will result only in a sequester in the category where Part Five-3 Part Five-4 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992 the breach occurs. For 1994 and 1995, there are no separate categories for discretionary programs, and the caps apply to total discretionary budget authority and outlays. latory Commission fee enacted as part of OBRA 1990 generates collections that finance discretionary activities. The enacted discretionary caps did not assume these collections, so an adjustment was made. Adjustments to the limits: preview report.—The BEA permits certain adjustments to the enacted discretionary limits—also known as caps. For each preview report submitted through 1995, the caps must be adjusted to reflect differences between actual and projected inflation and changes in concepts and definitions. Adjustments apply to the budget year and each outyear through 1995. Table XIV-1 shows the impact on the caps of these adjustments. The enacted discretionary caps reflect assumptions about inflation, as measured by the gross national product implicit price deflator. These assumptions are presented in the law for 1990 through 1993. The BEA requires an inflation adjustment if the actual rate of inflation for a year is different from the rate identified in the law for that year. Because the actual rate of inflation for 1990 was 4.0 percent, slightly less than the estimated 4.1 percent, a downward adjustment has been made to all three of the discretionary caps for 1992 through 1995. Changes in concepts and definitions since the BEA was enacted affect specific accounts, and they produce adjustments only to the category limits in which these accounts are included. One of these adjustments to the caps reflects new accounting for Federal credit programs, as required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, which was enacted as part of OBRA 1990. (See Chapter VTII.A., "Recognizing and Reducing Federal Underwriting Risks," for a discussion of credit reform.) Another adjustment is required by the BEA's new definition of budget authority, which changed the treatment of budget authority for specified trust funds. (See "Glossary of Budget Terms" in Part Eight for a discussion of the new definition of budget authority.) The outlay cap was adjusted to accommodate the new scoring guidelines as they apply to leases and leasepurchases that agencies may enter into under existing authority. The discretionary limits were further adjusted to reflect changes in the methodology for estimating social insurance administrative expenses as required by the BEA and as needed to make these estimates conform with the BEA baseline definitions. Several cap adjustments reflect legislative action that caused a reclassification of certain programs, shifting them between the mandatory (i.e., direct spending) category and the discretionary category. For instance, the underlying authorizing statute of two commodity distribution programs—food donations to soup kitchens and temporary emergency food assistance—were amended to require annual appropriations, changing their status from mandatory to discretionary. In the case of interim assistance to States for legalization, the shift between categories was made to comply with the new scorekeeping guidelines that require the Appropriations Committees to be credited (or charged) for actions affecting mandatory programs. A Nuclear Regu- Adjustments to the limits: after appropriations.—The BEA identifies other adjustments to the discretionary caps that can be made only after appropriations have been enacted. Unless otherwise noted, these adjustments can be made to reflect appropriations action taken in all years from 1991 through 1995 to cover the following: • Internal Revenue Service (IRS) funding.—Funding for the IRS compliance initiative above the CBO baseline levels estimated in June 1990. Adjustments are limited to the budget authority and outlay amounts specified in the law. • Debt forgiveness.—For calendar years 1990 and 1991 only, the estimated cost of forgiving Egypt's foreign military sales debt to the United States and any part of Poland's debt to the United States. • International Monetary Fund (IMF) funding.— Funding to cover the increase in the U.S. quota as part of the IMF Ninth General Review of Quotas. • Emergency appropriations.—Funding for accounts that the President designates as emergency requirements and that the Congress so designates in statute. The BEA further specifies that the costs of Operation Desert Shield are to be treated as emergency funding requirements. In addition, the BEA provides special allowances for budget authority in 1992 and 1993, and for outlays in 1991 through 1995. The outlay allowance is intended to provide a cushion for technical estimating differences between OMB and CBO. Thus an appropriation that meets both the budget authority and outlay caps under CBO scoring, but exceeds the outlay cap under OMB scoring, would not trigger a sequester if the excess is less than the available outlay allowance. The dollar amounts for the outlay allowances are specified in the BEA: In 1991 through 1993, the allowances are $2.5 billion for defense, $1.5 billion for international, $2.5 billion for domestic; and, in 1994 and 1995, $6.5 billion for total discretionary. The special budget authority allowances apply primarily to the international and domestic discretionary categories. The budget authority allowances are based on a percentage of the total adjusted discretionary limits for budget authority in 1991 through 1993. The outlays associated with the budget authority allowances are calculated based on spendout rates contained in the law. These outlays are subtracted from the outlay allowance, reducing the amount available for technical estimating differences. In addition to the budget authority allowances for the international and domestic categories, there is a small budget authority allowance for technical estimating differences between OMB and CBO that can be applied to all three discretionary categories.

Several of these adjustments were made to the 1991 and subsequent caps following enactment of the 1991 appropriations bills, as reported in the Final Sequester Report to the President and the Congress, issued November 9, 1990. As shown in Table XIV-1, adjustments were made for Operation Desert Shield, debt forgiveness, and IRS funding. In addition, a portion of the outlay allowance was used for the international and domestic categories. The actual adjustments to the discretionary caps to be included in the final sequester report at the end of this year's session of Congress cannot be determined until appropriations have been enacted. Table XIV-1 shows the end-of-session adjustments that would result if the President's discretionary proposals were enacted. The President's request includes funding in 1992 to cover the increase in the U.S. quota to the IMF and additional funding for the IRS compliance initiative. Although the President's budget includes a placeholder for 1991 supplemental appropriations for Operation Desert Shield, no adjustment was made to the caps. As noted above, funding for Operation Desert Shield (including Desert Storm) cannot trigger a sequester. Consistent with the BE A, the President's request assumes an increase in budget authority and outlays for the international and domestic categories based on the special allowance formulas. For international affairs programs, the adjustment in 1992 would increase budget authority by $1.0 billion and outlays by $0.4 billion. For domestic programs, the adjustment in 1992 would be $1.5 billion in budget authority and $0.8 billion in outlays. The remaining outlay allowance available for technical estimating differences in 1992 would be $2.5 billion for defense, $1.1 billion for international affairs, and $1.7 billion for domestic. The President's budget proposals for discretionary programs are below the adjusted caps, as currently estimated, in all years through 1995 and in all three discre- XIV. Part Five-7 BUDGET ENFORCEMENT ACT PREVIEW REPORT tionary categories in 1992 and 1993. Table XIV-2 compares the President's proposals with the adjusted discretionary caps. Sequester determinations.—Five days after enactment of an appropriations act, OMB must submit a report to Congress estimating the budget authority and outlays provided by the legislation for the current year and the budget year. These estimates must be based on the same economic and technical assumptions used in the most recent President's budget. In addition, the report must include CBO estimates and explain the differences between the OMB and CBO estimates. The OMB estimates are used in all subsequent calculations to determine whether a breach of any of the budget authority or outlay caps has occurred, and whether a sequester is required. Compliance with the discretionary caps is monitored throughout the fiscal year. The first determination of whether a sequester is necessary for a given fiscal year occurs when the final sequestration report is issued after Congress adjourns to end a session—near the beginning of the fiscal year. The monitoring process begins again after Congress reconvenes for a new session. Appropriations for the fiscal year in progress that cause a breach in any of the category caps would, if enacted before July 1st, trigger a sequester in that category. When such a breach is estimated, a "within-session" sequestration report and Presidential order are issued. For a breach that results from appropriations enacted on or after July 1st, reductions necessary to eliminate the breach are not applied to current year funds. However, the corresponding caps for the following fiscal year are reduced by the amount of the breach. A within-session sequester can only be caused by newly enacted appropriations. Reestimates of budget authority and outlays for already enacted funds cannot trigger a sequester. A within-session sequester for any of the three discretionary categories for 1991 is possible only if additional appropriations for 1991 are enacted. OMB reported in the Final Sequester Report to the President and the Congress that enacted defense and domestic appropriations for 1991 were within the prescribed spending limits. The enacted 1991 appropriations for international affairs exceeded the category limit because of an unintended error in legislative drafting. A Presidential sequester order was issued requiring across-the-board reductions in the international category to eliminate the breach. Composition of discretionary outlays.—Approximately 60 percent of total discretionary outlays are associated with budgetary resources subject to sequester in 1992. Those outlays exempt from sequester are primarily associated with obligations made in prior years. The law exempts relatively few discretionary programs from sequester, although it limits the sequester on certain discretionary health programs. Table XIV-2.

See Table X I V - 1 for details. 1993 Part Five-8 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992 The President has the authority to exempt any military personnel account from sequester or provide for a lower uniform percentage reduction than would otherwise apply. Presidential notification to Congress concerning the treatment of military personnel is not required until August 10th of each year. An estimated 65 percent of 1992 outlays for defense discretionary programs are associated with budgetary resources subject to an across-the-board percentage reduction. If the military personnel accounts were exempted by the President, about 40 percent of defense discretionary outlays would be associated with sequestrable resources. Approximately 55 percent of international discretionary outlays are associated with sequestrable budgetary resources in 1992. For domestic discretionary programs in 1992, nearly 55 percent of outlays are associated with sequestrable budgetary resources. About 5 percent of domestic discretionary outlays are associated with certain discretionary special rule programs, the largest of which is veterans medical care. The law limits spending reductions for these programs to 2 percent. A sequester does not reduce outlays directly; rather it permanently cancels budget authority and other authority to obligate and expend funds (except that special rules apply to amounts sequestered in special and trust funds). For defense discretionary programs, sequestrable budgetary resources for 1992 are defined to be new budget authority provided in appropriations for 1992 and unobligated balances of budget authority provided in previous years. For international and domestic discretionary programs, sequestrable budgetary resources for 1992 are new budget authority and obligation limitations provided by appropriations action. Federal administrative expenses for most programs and activities are sequestrable, including social security and otherwise exempt programs that are self-supporting. Although budgetary resources available for Federal pay are subject to sequestration, the law provides that rates of pay for civilian employees (and rates of pay, basic subsistence allowances, and basic quarters allowances for members of the uniformed services), or any scheduled pay increases, may not be reduced pursuant to a sequestration order. For discretionary credit programs, the subsidy budget authority provided in the credit program accounts is sequestrable. Direct loan obligations and guaranteed loan commitments are no longer sequestrable resources beginning in 1992. Nevertheless, they would be reduced indirectly by a sequester of budget authority in the credit program account, which is required in order to make new loans and commitments. Sequester calculations.—If either the budget authority or outlay caps were exceeded in a discretionary category, an across-the-board reduction of sequestrable budgetary resources in that category would be required to eliminate the breach. The percentage reduction for the special rule programs would be limited to 2 percent. Once this limit is reached, the uniform percentage reduction for all other discretionary sequestrable resources in that category would be increased to a level sufficient to achieve the required reduction. If both the budget authority and outlay caps were exceeded, a sequester would first be calculated to eliminate the budget authority breach. If estimated outlays still remained above the cap, even after applying the available outlay allowance, further reductions in budgetary resources to eliminate the outlay breach would then be required. Pay-As-You-Go Sequestration Report This section discusses the enforcement procedures that apply to the remainder of the budget—direct spending and receipts. The BEA defines direct spending as budget authority provided by law other than appropriations acts, entitlement authority, and the food stamp program. Social security and the Postal Service are not subject to pay-as-you-go enforcement, nor is legislation specifically designated as an emergency requirement. The BEA requires that all direct spending and receipts legislation enacted beginning with the 102nd Congress must, in total, be deficit neutral or reduce the deficit in every year through 1995. Although the pay-as-you-go requirements are generally enforced on a year-to-year basis, there are certain tradeoffs between the budget year and the prior year, as explained below. Savings in the outyears, however, cannot offset costs in the budget year. Deficit neutrality is enforced by sequester. Sequester determinations.—The BEA requires that, five days after enactment of each piece of direct spending or receipts legislation, OMB submit a report to Congress estimating the change in outlays or receipts for each fiscal year through 1995 resulting from that legislation. The estimates must use the economic and technical assumptions underlying the most recent President's budget. Changes are measured relative to the baseline estimates for direct spending and receipts included in that budget. In addition, the report must include CBO estimates and an explanation of differences between the OMB and CBO estimates. Under the BEA, the OMB estimates are used to determine if the pay-as-you-go requirements have been met. The cumulative nature of the pay-as-you-go process requires maintaining a "scorecard" that shows, beginning with the 102nd Congress, the deficit impact of enacted direct spending and receipts legislation and required pay-as-you-go sequesters.

Because the methodological differences among OTA, Congressional estimators, and outside experts have not yet been resolved, totals are presented with the Administration's estimates and with a zero (neutral) entry for this proposal. are intended to show how these past actions affect the upcoming fiscal year. Because the process begins with this session of Congress, there are no pay-as-you-go estimates of legislation or sequesters from previous years to include in this preview report. The pay-as-you-go requirements are enforced only once a year—at the time the final sequestration report is issued. (There are no within-session sequestration reports for pay-as-you-go enforcement.) The final report presents the "scorecard" of all direct spending and receipts legislation enacted and sequesters implemented beginning with the 102nd Congress. The report estimates the cumulative net impact on the deficit of those actions for the fiscal year that just ended and the fiscal year just beginning. If any deficit increase is estimated for these fiscal years, a reduction of sequestrable mandatory resources in the budget year would be required to offset the amount of the combined increase. A pay-as-you-go sequester is not currently estimated for this year. Such a sequester would be required at the end of the session only if enacted direct spending and receipts legislation increase the combined 1991 and 1992 deficits. Only the action taken during this session will have an impact on this year's final sequester estimates. In future years, however, estimates of action taken in prior years and the impact of prior-year sequesters will be combined with the estimates of newly enacted legislation to determine whether the pay-asyou-go requirements have been met. The President's budget includes a variety of proposals affecting direct spending and receipts. As shown in Table XIV-3, enactment of these proposals would yield net deficit reduction in each fiscal year, 1991 through 1995. If the President's proposals were enacted, significant pay-as-you-go savings would be created through 1995, and no sequester would be required. For additional details on the Administration's direct spending and receipt proposals, see Chapter II, "Director's Introduction and Overview Tables," and Chapter X, "Receipts, User Fees, and Other Collections." If the net of all legislation enacted during this year's session of Congress increased the deficit in each fiscal year, 1992 through 1995, a sequester would be required at the end of the session to eliminate the increase in the 1992 deficit. But a sequester of direct spending resources primarily yields one-year savings. Thus the 1992 sequester would not eliminate the deficit increase for 1993-1995 caused by the enacted legislation. The preview report accompanying the 1993 budget would, therefore, show that a sequester would be required in 1993. To avoid another sequester, Congress would have to enact new legislation to offset the estimated increase in the 1993 deficit caused by the legislation enacted during the previous session. Composition of direct spending outlays.—For all direct spending, including social security benefits, more than 80 percent of outlays are associated with budgetary resources exempt from sequestration in 1992. The burden of sequester falls on programs that comprise the remaining 20 percent of direct spending outlays. Of the total estimated 1992 direct spending outlays, about 15 percent are associated with programs subject to certain special rules, and less than 5 percent are associated with budgetary resources subject to an across-the-board percentage reduction. Most direct spending programs are exempt from sequestration. Social security benefits, net interest, certain low-income programs, most Federal retirement and disability benefits, regular State unemployment insurance benefits, veterans compensation and pensions, and the Postal Service are all exempt from sequestration. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Resolution Trust Corporation, and other deposit insurance programs are exempt from sequester. Certain programs and activities, while not exempt, are subject to special rules that limit the amount of the spending reduction. For medicare, a pay-as-you-go sequester reduction is limited to 4 percent annually. For three programs specified in the law, the total amount of the automatic spending increase is sequestrable, but the program base is exempt. The Federal share of extended unemployment benefits is sequestrable, but if States act to increase their share by the amount of the reduction in the Federal share, Part Five-10 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992 total budget outlays, which include both the Federal and State shares, will not be changed by the sequester. Sequester calculations.—If a pay-as-you-go sequester were required, sequester reductions would be calculated as follows: First, savings from eliminating automatic spending increases in three specific programs— the National Wool Act, the special milk program, and vocational rehabilitation basic State grants—would be applied to the required reduction in direct spending outlays. Second, if further reductions were required, the maximum permissible reductions to the guaranteed student loan and foster care and adoption assistance programs would be made. Third, any reductions in direct spending programs still required would be applied to sequestrable budg- etary resources on a uniform percentage basis. Once the 4 percent limit on medicare reductions is reached, the uniform percentage reduction of all other sequestrable direct spending resources would be increased to a level sufficient to achieve the required reduction in direct spending. The law requires special calculations to achieve the uniform percentage reduction for child support enforcement and for the JOBS portion of aid to families with dependent children. Sequester savings from the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) would include savings from both the budget year and the following year. If a pay-as-you-go sequester were required in 1992, for instance, CCC outlay reductions in 1993 resulting from contract adjustments made in 1992 because of the sequester would be credited to the overall direct spending outlay reduction required for 1992. Deficit Sequestration Report The BEA specifies maximum deficit amounts for 1991 through 1995. These deficit amounts reflect economic and technical assumptions current at the time the BEA was enacted. For the 1992 and 1993 budgets, the BEA requires adjusting the maximum deficit amounts for all years through 1995 to reflect up-to-date economic and technical assumptions. For the 1994 and 1995 budgets, the President has the option of whether to continue making these economic and technical adjustments to the maximum deficit amounts. As specified in the BEA, the current maximum deficit amount reflects the on-budget current law levels for direct spending and receipts, and the cap levels for discretionary programs. Table XIV-4 shows the current maximum deficit amounts and the current estimated deficits calculated under BEA rules. It also shows the maximum deficit amounts as specified in OBRA 1990. A deficit sequester would be required if the estimated deficit were to exceed the maximum deficit amount by more than the allowed margin—zero in 1992 and 1993, and $15 billion in 1994 and 1995. The current maximum deficit amounts and estimated deficits are identical. There is no excess deficit, and thus no sequester, estimated for 1992. Table XIV-4.

As presented in Table XTV-5, these differences are the result of the different economic and technical assumptions used by OMB and CBO. The Administration and CBO have similar forecasts of GNP, but CBO's is somewhat lower than the Administration's in 1994 and 1995, contributing to CBO's lower receipts estimates. In addition, CBO has slightly lower corporate profits and taxable personal income as a percentage of GNP. CBO's interest rate assumptions are somewhat higher than the Administration's, resulting in higher interest costs, which are the primary economic reason for the different outlay estimates. For discretionary programs, OMB and CBO estimates of the discretionary spending caps differ primarily due to the different treatment of social security administrative expenses. OMB interprets the BEA's definition of the discretionary category as requiring social security administrative expenses to be included in the discretionary category. CBO interprets the law as requiring that all of social security, including the administrative expenses, be excluded from all BEA calculations. The remaining outlay differences and the budget authority differences are due in part to differences in the credit XIV. Part Five-11 BUDGET ENFORCEMENT ACT PREVIEW REPORT Table XIV-5.

The OMB and CBO estimates for deposit insurance differ primarily due to assumptions about the Resolution Trust Corporation's (RTC) working capital needs. Although OMB and CBO have nearly identical estimates of thrift losses in 1992 and 1993, CBO generally estimates higher RTC outlays for resolving these cases. The large difference in 1994 reflects the CBO assumption that RTC will continue covering the losses of failed thrifts in that year. OMB assumes that by 1994 RTC will no longer be resolving cases. CBO's higher estimates for RTC are slightly offset by lower estimates than OMB for the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF). Compared to OMB, CBO assumes that BIF will collect more bank premiums and that, consistent with its economic assumptions, there will be fewer bank failures. OMB estimates for medicaid are higher than CBO's due largely to different assumptions about program 1994 1993 growth. Recently, States have misestimated budget year medicaid expenditures, resulting in low Federal estimates. OMB estimates rely on statistical models to adjust for these estimating problems. However, as discussed in Chapter IX.A., "Strengthening Management and Accountability," there remains a significant gap in medicaid program information, which leads to a great uncertainty about the magnitude of expenditure growth. In the coming year, OMB will work closely with the Department of Health and Human Services and CBO to develop better systems for estimating medicaid expenditures. For medicare, the differences between OMB and CBO are primarily due to different assumptions about growth utilization and health care services. Here again, gaps in medicare financial reporting compromise the reliability of both OMB and CBO data. XV. CURRENT SERVICES ESTIMATES Part Five-13 XV. CURRENT SERVICES ESTIMATES The Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as amended, requires that the President submit current services estimates to Congress. These estimates provide a base against which the Administration's budget proposals, or other proposals, may be compared. In general, current services estimates are designed to show what outlays, receipts, and budget authority would be if no policy changes were made. Enacted last year as part of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA 1990), the Budget Enforcement Act (BEA) set limits on discretionary spending and requires that direct spending and receipts legislation must, in total, be at least deficit neutral (see Chapter XIV, "Budget Enforcement Act Preview Report"). The BEA covers 1991 through 1995. The current services estimates presented in this chapter are consistent with the discretionary totals that will be enforced by the BEA and current law estimates for direct spending and receipts. The current services estimates are shown on a consolidated basis. The off-budget outlays and receipts of the social security trust funds and the Postal Service Fund are combined with on-budget amounts to calculate the budget totals. The concepts used in developing the current services estimates are described below. Table XV-1 compares the current services and Administration outlay, receipt, and deficit estimates for 1990 through 1996. The Administration's proposals would reduce the current services deficit by $4.0 billion in 1992. Between 1992 and 1996, the cumulative deficit reduction proposed by the Administration totals $35.5 billion. Pay-as-you-go proposals for direct spending and receipts would reduce the deficit by $0.5 billion and $9.0 billion in 1991 and 1992, respectively. The Administration's request for discretionary programs, in total, is slightly under the 1992 discretionary cap. The Administration's budget also includes a placeholder for 1991 supplemental appropriations to fund Operation Desert Shield (including Desert Storm) that, combined with anticipated contributions from other countries, increases the deficit by $8.2 billion and $4.6 billion in 1991 and 1992, respectively. Finally, other primarily technical changes, such as accrual adjustments for Defense Department and Public Health Service retirement, and debt service would increase the deficit by $0.4 billion in 1992. Direct spending and receipts.—The current services estimates for direct spending programs and receipts reflect the future implications of current law, including the impact of final and proposed regulations. The current services estimates assume that expiring provisions providing revenues and spending authority will terminate as scheduled. Expiring provisions affecting excise taxes dedicated to trust funds, however, are assumed to be extended at current rates. The current services estimates are based on the same technical assumptions, such as beneficiary levels and crop forecasts, and economic projections used in developing the President's policy estimates. In addition, the policy and current services estimates for deposit insurance are identical, reflecting amounts sufficient to address insolvencies in the thrift and banking industries. Table XV-1.

Note: Estimates for 1990 and 1991 are presented on a pre-credit reform basis. The estimates for 1992 through 1996 use credit reform accounting. Part Five-15 Part Five-16 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992 Discretionary programs.—The current services estimates for both defense and nondefense discretionary programs are, in general, based on the enacted 1991 appropriations level. Resources are inflated to reflect year-to-year changes in the discretionary caps. The 1991 estimates are the current estimates of enacted 1991 appropriations. For 1992 through 1995, the current services estimates match the adjusted discretionary caps. As discussed in the BEA preview report, the discretionary caps are to be adjusted following the enactment of appropriations. For purposes of estimating these adjusted caps, enactment of the President's proposals are assumed. Estimates of the end-of-session adjusted caps are shown in Table XIV-1 in the previous chapter. There are no discretionary caps for 1996, so the current services estimates for that year reflect the President's request for discretionary programs. Because the Administration's proposals for 1992 through 1995 are consistent with the discretionary caps, the 1996 proposals provide a reasonable approximation of an "extension" of the caps. Credit programs.—The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 requires, beginning in 1992, new accounting for credit programs. Under credit reform, credit transactions are recorded in three types of accounts: program, financing, and liquidating accounts. Program accounts include the subsidy and administrative costs. The subsidy reflects the net present value of the cost to the Government over the life of the loan measured in the year the action is taken. Most program accounts are classified as discretionary. Financing accounts receive the subsidy from the program accounts and reflect all cash flows of the credit transactions, including the disbursement of direct loans and guarantee claims and the collection of loan repayments and fees. Financing accounts are scored as a means of financing and therefore excluded from the budget totals. Finally, the costs associated with pre-1992 loan obligations and commitments are displayed in liquidating accounts. All liquidating accounts are classified as mandatory. The current services concepts for mandatory and discretionary programs discussed above apply to credit programs. Estimates for mandatory credit programs reflect subsidies for new credit activity permitted under current law. For discretionary credit programs, subsidy amounts and administrative costs are inflated to reflect year-to-year changes in the discretionary caps. Because no subsidy amounts were appropriated in 1991, an estimate of the subsidy implied by the enacted program level was used as the base to estimate the current services levels for 1992 through 1996. The shift in accounting techniques creates a mismatch when current services estimates from 1990 and 1991, presented on a pre-credit reform basis, are compared with those from 1992 through 1996, which follow the new credit accounting rules. In total, the mismatch is rather small; however, large discrepancies can appear for particular programs. For a more detailed discussion of credit reform, see Chapter VIII.A., "Recognizing and Reducing Federal Underwriting Risks." Economic assumptions.—The current services estimates are based on the same economic assumptions as the President's budget proposals. The economic assumptions assume that the President's budget proposals will be adopted. Continuation of all programs and tax laws unchanged would result in different economic conditions than would occur under the budget proposals. Changes in economic conditions significantly affect budget estimates because of their effects on tax receipts, unemployment benefits, interest on the federal debt, and other programs where spending is sensitive to economic factors. As a result, if different economic assumptions were used in developing the current services and policy estimates, it would be very difficult to separate the effects of policy differences from the effects of differences in the economic assumptions. The economic assumptions common to the budget and the current services estimates are summarized in Table XV-2. They are discussed in more detail in Chapter III, "Economic Assumptions and Sensitivities." Current Services Receipts Table XV-3 shows current services receipts by major source. Current services receipts are projected to increase by $71.2 billion from 1991 to 1992 and by $402.8 billion from 1992 to 1996, largely due to assumed increases in incomes resulting from both real economic growth and inflation.

This growth of 7.1 percent is the effect of increased collections resulting from rising personal incomes, the changes in individual income tax rates and the limitations on personal exemptions and itemized deductions provided in OBRA 1990, and the expiration of several credits and exclusions from tax on December 31, 1991. These expiring provisions include the exclusion for employer-provided educational assistance and the low income housing tax credit. Individual income taxes are projected to grow at an average annual rate of 9.0 percent between 1992 and 1996. The estimates for 1996 reflect expiration of the limitations on personal exemptions and itemized deductions on December 31, 1995. Corporation income taxes under current law are estimated to grow by $6.9 billion or 7.2 percent from 1991 to 1992, in large part due to higher corporate profits. These estimates also reflect the expiration of the research and experimentation (R&E) credit, the R&E allocation rules, the targeted jobs credit, and several other credits and exclusions from tax that expire on December 31, 1991. Corporation income taxes are projected to increase at an average annual rate of 8.1 percent from 1992 to 1996. Social insurance taxes and contributions are estimated to increase by $26.2 billion between 1991 and 1992, and by an additional $138.7 billion between 1992 and 1996. The estimates reflect assumed increases in total wages and salaries paid, and scheduled increases in the social security taxable earnings base from $53,400 in 1991 to $69,000 in 1996, and increases in the medicare taxable earnings base from $125,000 in 1991 to $162,600 in 1996. Current services excise taxes are estimated to increase by $2.9 billion from 1991 to 1992, in large part due to legislated increases in excise taxes provided in OBRA 1990. Excise taxes are estimated to increase by $3.6 billion from 1992 to 1996. The estimates for 1992 1991 estimate through 1996 assume extension of the following taxes, which are scheduled to expire in 1995: the highway fuels taxes and other highway user taxes deposited in the Highway Trust Fund, the motor boat fuels taxes and certain other taxes deposited in the Aquatic Resources Trust Fund, the Hazardous Substance Superfund Trust Fund taxes, and the Airport and Airway Trust Fund taxes. The estimates also reflect extension of the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund taxes and the Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund taxes that are scheduled to expire December 31, 1994, and December 31, 1992, respectively. Other current services receipts (estate and gift taxes, customs duties, and miscellaneous receipts) are projected to increase by $7.6 billion from 1991 to 1996. Current Services Outlays Current services outlays are estimated to total $1,447.2 billion in 1992. The increase in current services outlays from 1991 to 1992 is $45.8 billion, or 3.3 percent. Between 1992 and 1996 current services outlays are projected to increase at an average annual rate of 1.7 percent. Changes in current services outlays from 1991 to 1992 for entitlements and other mandatory programs are largely due to changes in the number of beneficiaries, to cost-of-living adjustments, and to revised estimates of commercial bank and savings and loan association insolvency costs. In the case of annually appropriated programs, the change reflects year-to-year growth permitted under the discretionary caps. Table XV-4 shows outlay estimates for current services and Administration budget proposals by function. These same estimates, arrayed by agency, are presented in Table XV-5. A more detailed comparison (by function, subfunction, and program) of current services and Administration policy outlay estimates appears in Table XV-11 at the end of the chapter.

The estimates for 1992 use credit reform accounting. Current services outlays for social security are estimated to increase by $19.4 billion between 1991 and 1992, from $269.0 billion in 1991 to $288.4 billion in 1992. Medicare outlays are estimated to increase by $12.5 billion, from $104.4 billion in 1991 to $116.9 billion in 1992. Outlays for medicaid grants are estimated to increase by $8.3 billion, from $51.6 billion in 1991 to $59.9 billion in 1992. These increases in medicare and medicaid outlays are largely the result of increases in medical care prices and utilization. Table XV-6 shows caseload projections for these and other major benefit programs and other selected programmatic assumptions. Defense (050) outlays are estimated to decrease by $4.3 billion between 1991 and 1992, from $299.5 billion to $295.2 billion, consistent with the defense discretionary spending limits. These defense estimates do not reflect the placeholder for Operation Desert Shield, which includes Desert Storm. Outlays for deposit insurance decrease by $23.4 billion, from $111.5 billion in 1991 to $88.1 billion in 1992. Spending by the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) to resolve savings and loan insolvencies, and out- lays by the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to resolve bank insolvencies, decline between 1991 and 1992 by $8.5 billion and $6.2 billion, respectively. This estimated decline primarily reflects increased receipts in 1992 from the sale of assets of past failed thrifts and banks. These estimates assume present RTC funding and BIF obligation constraints are raised. A decrease of $7.8 billion in outlays between 1991 and 1992 for the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) Resolution Fund is due to the completed restructuring of expensive pre-1989 contracts of the former FSLIC in 1991. Current Services Budget Authority Current services budget authority is estimated to total $1,585.6 billion in 1992.

This measures unemployment under State regular unemployment insurance as a percentage of covered employment under that program. It does not include recipients of extended benefits under that program. 2 thority estimates appears in Table XV-11 at the end of the chapter. Increases in current services budget authority between 1991 and 1992 generally reflect year-to-year increases permitted under the discretionary caps for dis- cretionary programs and the higher funding levels that would be necessary to maintain current law program levels for mandatory programs. In the case of most trust funds, the funds' receipts automatically become budget authority; thus increases in budget authority Part Five-20 THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1992 for these funds simply reflect year-to-year growth in expected receipts. As defined in the BEA, however, budget authority for the medicare, unemployment, and railroad retirement trust funds is equal to estimated obligations to be incurred during the fiscal year for benefit, administrative, and other expenses.
