To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal Reserve District:

Following is the text of a notice issued by the Treasury Department:
The Departm ent of the Treasury, by this public notice, invites tenders
for two series of Treasury bills totaling approximately $14,800 million, to
be issued November 29, 1985. This offering will result in a paydown for the
Treasury of about $17,475 million, as the maturing bills total $32,278
million (including the 14-day cash management bills issued November 15,
1985, in the am ount of $18,006 million). Tenders will be received at Federal
Reserve Banks and Branches and at the Bureau of the Public Debt,
W ashington, D.C. 20239, prior to 1:00 p.m ., Eastern Standard time,
Monday, November 25, 1985. The two series offered are as follows:
90-day bills (to m aturity date) for approxim ately $7,400 million,
representing an additional am ount o f bills dated August 29,
1985, and to m ature February 27, 1986 (CUSIP No. 912794
JU9), currently outstanding in the am ount of $7,263 million, the
additional and original bills to be freely interchangeable.
181-day bills for approximately $7,400 million, to be dated
November 29, 1985, and to mature May 29, 1986 (CUSIP No.
912794 KH6).
The bills will be issued on a discount basis under competitive and non­
competitive bidding, and at m aturity their par am ount will be payable
without interest. Both series o f bills will be issued entirely in book-entry
form in a minimum am ount of $10,000 and in any higher $5,000 multiple,
on the records either of the Federal Reserve Banks and Branches, or of the
Departm ent of the Treasury.
The bills will be issued for cash and in exchange for Treasury bills
m aturing November 29, 1985. In addition to the maturing 13-week and
26-week bills, there are $8,535 million o f maturing 52-week bills. The
disposition of this latter am ount was announced last week. Tenders from
Federal Reserve Banks for their own account and as agents for foreign and
international monetary authorities will be accepted at the weighted average
bank discount rates o f accepted competitive tenders. Additional amounts of
the bills may be issued to Federal Reserve Banks, as agents for foreign and
international m onetary authorities, to the extent that the aggregate amount
of tenders for such accounts exceeds the aggregate am ount o f maturing bills
held by them. For purposes o f determining such additional amounts,
foreign and international m onetary authorities are considered to hold
$2,585 million o f the original 13-week and 26-week issues. Federal Reserve
Banks currently hold $2,645 million as agents for foreign and international
m onetary authorities, and $5,005 million for their own account. These
am ounts represent the combined holdings o f such accounts for the three
issues of m aturing bills. Tenders for bills to be maintained on the bookentry records o f the Departm ent o f the Treasury should be submitted on
Form PD 4632-2 (for 26-week series) or Form PD 4632-3 (for 13-week
series).
Each tender must state the par am ount o f bills bid for, which must be a
minimum of $10,000. Tenders over $10,000 must be in multiples o f $5,000.
Competitive tenders must also show the yield desired, expressed on a bank
discount rate basis with two decimals, e.g., 7.15%. Fractions may not be
used. A single bidder, as defined in Treasury’s single bidder guidelines, shall
not submit noncompetitive tenders totaling more than $1,000,000.
Banking institutions and dealers who make primary m arkets in Govern­
ment securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank o f New York
their positions in and borrowings on such securities may submit tenders for
account o f customers, if the names o f the customers and the am ount for
each customer are furnished. Others are only permitted to submit tenders
for their own account. Each tender m ust state the amount o f any net long
position in the bills being offered if such position is in excess of $200
million. This inform ation should reflect positions held as of 12:30 p.m .,
Eastern time, on the day of the auction. Such positions would include bills
acquired through “ when issued” trading, and futures and forward transac­

tions as well as holdings of outstanding bills with the same m aturity date as
the new offering, e.g., bills with three months to m aturity previously
offered as six-month bills. Dealers, who make primary markets in Govern­
ment securities and report daily to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
their positions in and borrowings on such securities, when submitting
tenders for customers, must submit a separate tender for each customer
whose net long position in the bill being offered exceeds $200 million.
A noncom petitive bidder may not have entered into an agreement, nor
make an agreement to purchase or sell or otherwise dispose o f any non­
competitive awards o f this issue being auctioned prior to the designated
closing time for receipt o f tenders.
Paym ent for the full par am ount of the bills applied for m ust accom ­
pany all tenders subm itted for bills to be m aintained on the book-entry
records o f the D epartm ent of the Treasury. A cash adjustm ent will be
made on all accepted tenders for the difference between the par payment
subm itted and the actual issue price as determ ined in the auction.
No deposit need accompany tenders from incorporated banks and
trust companies and from responsible and recognized dealers in invest­
m ent securities for bills to be m aintained on the book-entry records of
Federal Reserve Banks and Branches. A deposit o f 2 percent of the par
am ount o f the bills applied for must accom pany tenders for such bills
from others, unless an express guaranty o f paym ent by an incorporated
bank or trust com pany accompanies the tenders.
Public announcem ent will be made by the D epartm ent o f the Treasury
o f the am ount and yield range of accepted bids. Competitive bidders will
be advised o f the acceptance or rejection o f their tenders. The Secretary
o f the Treasury expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all
tenders, in whole or in part, and the Secretary’s action shall be final. Sub­
ject to these reservations, noncom petitive tenders for each issue for
$1,000,000 or less without stated yield from any one bidder will be ac­
cepted in full at the weighted average bank discount rate (in two decimals)
o f accepted competitive bids for the respective issues. The calculation of
purchase prices for accepted bids will be carried to three decimal places on
the basis o f price per hundred, e.g., 99.923, and the determ inations o f the
Secretary o f the Treasury shall be final.
Settlement for accepted tenders for bills to be m aintained on the bookentry records o f Federal Reserve Banks and Branches must be made or
completed at the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch on the issue date, in
cash or other im m ediately-available funds or in Treasury bills m aturing
on that date. Cash adjustm ents will be made for differences between the
par value o f the m aturing bills accepted in exchange and the issue price of
the new bills. In addition, Treasury Tax and Loan Note O ption
Depositaries may make paym ent for allotm ents of bills for their own
accounts and for account o f customers by credit to their Treasury Tax
and Loan Note Accounts on the settlement date.
In general, if a bill is purchased at issue after July 18, 1984, and held
to m aturity, the am ount o f discount is reportable as ordinary income in
the Federal income tax return o f the owner at the time o f redem ption.
Accrual-basis taxpayers, banks, and other persons designated in section
1281 o f the Internal Revenue Code m ust include in income the portion of
the discount for the period during the taxable year such holder held the
bill. If the bill is sold or otherwise disposed o f before m aturity, the por­
tion o f the gain equal to the accrued discount will be treated as ordinary
income. Any excess may be treated as capital gain.
Departm ent of the Treasury Circulars, Public Debt Series—Nos. 26-76
and 27-76, Treasury’s single bidder guidelines, and this notice prescribe the
terms o f these Treasury bills and govern the conditions of their issue.
Copies o f the circulars, guidelines, and tender forms may be obtained from
any Federal Reserve Bank or Branch, or from the Bureau of the Public Debt.
