Profile of the

CHARTS POE-A.--Growth of
Real Gross Domestic Product
Quarterly annual rate
estimates show the growth of real Gross Domestic
Product (GDP) slowed to a 1 .8 percent annual rate in
the first quarter of 1 993. As well as being lower than
expected, the first-quarter rate of 1 .8 percent is a
mar1<ed drop from the 4.7 percent rate In the fourth
quarter of 1992.
While unusually severe weather may have been partially
responsible for the drop, there is evidence of an
underlying softness in the economy. Inventory
accumulation-resulting from weak sales-accounted for
more than the total of first-quarter growth. Meanwhile,
defense purchases dropped sharply and the net export
balance weakened.
The fixed-weighted price index for GDP rose at a 4.2
percent rate in the first quarter, compared to 3 percent
for all of last year. The increase, however, likely reflected
special one-time factors In January and February.
As compared to a 4.8 percent rate of grovirth during a
typical recovery, growth has averaged 2.2 percent in the
2 years since the recent recession.

Gross Domestic Product

The Federal
Budget

Deficit

The baseline forecast for fiscal year 1 993
projected a Federal budget deficit of $322
billion, which is 5.2 percent of Gross
Domestic Product (GDP). At this time, it
appears that the actual figure will come in
lower. The Administration's deficit
reduction program in combination with the
ongoing economic recovery is expected to
narrow the deficit to $212 billion by fiscal
1 996--at 2.9 percent of GDP After that, the
deficit will again begin to widen reaching
$250 billion--or 3.2 percent of GDP--by
fiscal 1998. Most of that figure represents a
structural deficit. Health care reform could
help keep the deficit on a declining track.
These figures assume Congress enacts
the Administration's budget plan, which
calls for a net deficit reduction of $137
billion by fiscal 1 998. If the plan is not
adopted, the deficit is projected to reach
$387 billion, or 5 percent of GDP by 1998.
Without a policy change. Congressional
Budget Office estimates put the fiscal 2003
budget deficit at 6.8 percent of GDP,
raising the debt ratio to 78 percent from 53
percent in fiscal 1993.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

CHARTS POE-C.--Net Saving and Investment
National saving (net of depreciation) fell to a
postwar low of 0.6 percent of the Net
National Product (NNP) in 1992, down from
The national saving rate
1 .6 percent in 1991
averaged 8.8 percent in the 1960s and 7.9
percent in the 1970s. Government dissaving,
which widened from 0.7 percent of NNP in
the 1 960s to 6.4 percent in 1 992, was the
main culprit in the tremendous drop.
Including State and local government
pension funds, private saving edged up to
7.0 percent in 1992. Reflecting long-term
declines in retained earnings (2.0 percent of
NNP) and personal saving (5.1 percent), that
rate is still well below averages of 9.5
percent in the 1960s and 1970s. Similarly,
total net investment was only 1 .3 percent of
NNP in 1992, off from an average of 8.4
percent in the 1960s and 1970s, and also
down significantly from the 1980s average of
4.3 percent. Supplemented by an inflow of
foreign cash, domestic investment fell less
sharply in the 1980s--to 6.1 percent from

The Government has used

the unified budget concept as a
budgetary analysis and presentation since 1969. The
concept calls for the budget to include all of the Government's fiscal
transactions with the public. Since 1971, however, various laws have
been enacted removing several Federal entities from (or creating them
outside of) the budget. Other laws have moved certain off-budget
Federal entities onto the budget. Under current law, the off-budget
Federal entities consist of the two Social Security trust funds. Federal

Budget Results for the Second Quarter, Fiscal 1993
SUMMARY
Total

The Federal budget
deficit narrowed to $62.4
billion in the second quarter
from $120.5 billion in the
first. Much of the $58 billion
difference

was

attributable
to an unusual timing of payments (the New Year's holi-

day weekend caused
January social security
checks to be mailed in December). Outlays ballooned
almost $25 billion in December and declined by
that same amount in January.

Excluding the effects of

this

timing difference, the

deficit totaled

almost $87

the second quarter
compared with over $96 bilbillion in

there is some seasonal widening of the deficit between

response to payments on income shifted into calendar year
1992 by high-income individuals anticipating higher tax
rates this year.

Compared with the comparable quarter of fiscal 1992,
the deficit decreased $29 billion in the second quarter,
adjusted for the timing difference. Receipts were about $23
billion (nearly 10 percent) higher. That rise reflected a
decline in tax refunds in response to last year's cut in
withholding rates as well as the increased payments of both
withheld and other individual tax payments on income
shifted into calendar year 1992.
Outlays, excluding the timing shift in social security
payments, were about $5 billion (1.5 percent) lower than
the second quarter of 1992. The major element in that
decline was deposit insurance spending, which was negative by $6.1 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 1 993, as
asset sales by the Resolution Trust Company and other
deposit insurance agencies exceeded gross spending. In
the comparable quarter a year earlier, deposit insurance
outlays had been a positive $10.3 billion. This swing, with
declines in defense purchases and net interest payments,
more than offset increases in outlays for agriculture, health.
Medicare, and income security programs this year.
In the first 6 months of the fiscal year, the budget deficit
totaled $1 82.8 billion, more than $16 billion below the deficit
in the first half of fiscal 1992. After adjusting the figures to
exclude a $19.5 billion swing in deposit insurance outlays

The following capsule analysis of budget reby source, for the first quarter of fiscal 1993
supplements fiscal data reported in the March issue
ceipts,

of the "Treasury Bulletin." At the time of that issue's
release, not enough data was available to analyze
adequately collections for the quarter.

Individual income taxes-Individual income tax rewere $1 21 .6 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 1 993.
This represents an increase of $8.5 billion over the comparable quarter for fiscal 1992. Withheld receipts increased
by $6.1 billion over the comparable quarter of fiscal 1992.
Non-withheld receipts increased by $0.9 billion and refunds
decreased by $1.5 billion over the comparable quarter of
1 992. All of the figures represent increases in liability over
the prior year quarter.
ceipts

Corporate income taxes-Corporate receipts for the
quarter of fiscal 1993 totaled $26.5 billion. This was
$2.8 billion higher than receipts for the comparable quarter
first

of fiscal 1992. The $2.8 billion figure is composed of approximately $1.8 billion in additional estimated and final
payments plus approximately $1 .1 billion in lower reftjnds.
The increase in net receipts reflects both increased corporate profits and new estimated payment rules that became
effective in June 1992.

effect of its fluctuating operations on Note Option financial institution
reserves and on the economy. Likewise, those institutions wishing to
remit the funds to the Treasury's account at FRBs do so under the
Remittance Option.

Under authority of Public Law 95-147, Treasury implemented a
program on November 2, 1978, to invest a portion of its operating cash
in obligations of depositaries maintaining tax and loan accounts. Under
the Treasury tax and loan investment program, depositary financial
institutions select the manner in which they will participate. Financial
institutions wishing to retain funds deposited into their tax and loan
accounts in interest-bearing obligations participate under the Note

payments, which the financial institutions use to
purchase Government securities. In most cases, this involves a transfer
of funds from a customer's account to the tax and loan account in the
same financial institution. Also, Treasury can direct the FRBs to invest
excess funds in tax and loan accounts directly from the Treasury
account at the FRBs.

securities, securities held by Governmentaccounts, and securities held
by the public The difference between the outstanding face value of the
Federal debt and the net unamortized premium and discount is classified as the accrual amount. (For greater detail on holdings of Federal

Congress enacted a limited exception to the 4-1/4-percent interest rate
ceiling on Treasury bonds. This permitted Treasury to offer securities
maturing in more than 7 years at current market rates of interest for the
first time since 1965. This exception has expanded since 1971 authorizing Treasury to continue to issue long-term securities, and the ceiling

INTRODUCTION:

Public Debt Operations

The Second Liberty Bond Act (31 U S C, 3101 et seq.) allows the
Secretary of the Treasury to borrow money by issuing Treasury securities The Secretary determines the terms and conditions of issue,
conversion, maturity, payment, and interest rate. New issues of Treasury notes mature in 2 to 10 years Bonds mature in more than 1 years
from the issue date. Each marketable security is listed in the f^onthly
Statement of the Public Debt of the United States. The information in
this section of the "Treasury Bulletin" pertains only to marketable
Treasury securities, current bills, notes, and bonds
,

• Table PDO-1 provides a maturity schedule of interest-bearing
marketable public debt securities other than regular weekly and 52week bills. All unmatured Treasury notes and bonds are listed in
maturity order, from earliest to latest. A separate breakout is provided
for the combined holdings of the Government accounts and Federal
Reserve banks, so that the "all other investors" category includes all
private holdings.

• Table PDO-2 presents the results of weekly auctions of 13- and
26-week bills, as well as auctions of 52-week bills, which are held every
fourth week. Treasury bills mature each Thursday. New issues of
1 3-week bills are reopenings of 26-week bills. The 26-week bill issued

week to mature on the same Thursday as an existing
52-week bill is a reopening of the existing 52-week bill New issues of
cash management bills are also presented High, low, and average
yields on accepted tenders and the dollar value of total bids are
presented, with the dollar value of awards made on both competitive
and noncompetitive basis.

(USCC) statement Informs the public of the total face value of currency
and coin used as a medium of exchange that is in circulation at the
end of a given accounting month. The statement defines the total
amount of currency and coin outstanding and the portion deemed to
be in circulation, and includes some old and current rare issues that
do not circulate, or that may do so to a limited extent Treasury includes
them in the statement because the issues were originally intended for
general circulation.

The USCC statement provides a description of the various issues

coin held by each individual, using estimates of population from the
Bureau of the Census. USCC information has been published by
Treasury since 1888, and was published separately until 1983, when

of January 30, 1934(31 U.S.C. 822a), which authorized establishment
of a Treasury Department fund to be operated under the exclusive
control of the Secretary, with approval of the President.

the double taxation of retained earnings through a dividend
reinvestment plan. The report is a follow-up to the "Report of
the Department of the Treasury on Integration of the Individual
and Corporate Tax Systems: Taxing Business Income Once,"
released in January 1992.

Report on the Taxation of Americans Working Overseas, 1987
On January 12, 1993, the Department of the Treasury
submitted to Congress an interim report entitled "Taxation of
Americans Working Overseas, The Operation of the Foreign
Earned Income Exclusion in 1987." Under section 911, qualified individuals may exclude up to $70,000 of foreign earned
income as well as the excess of reasonable foreign housing
costs from their U.S. tax liability. The report covers the 1 987 tax
year, in which more than 1 50,000 returns are estimated to have

billion in excludable income and more than half of those persons were able to completely eliminate their U.S. tax liability.
For 1 987, the use of section 91 1 as opposed to the foreign tax
credit, is estimated to have resulted in a revenue loss to the
U.S. fisc of $740 million.

Foreign Sales Corporation Report
On January 13, 1993, the Department of the Treasury
submitted to Congress its report on "The Operation and Effect
of the Foreign Sales Corporation Legislation: January 1 1 985
to June 30, 1988." The report covers the first 3 years of the
operation of the foreign sales corporation (FSC) program,
created as part of the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984. By using
an FSC as an exporter or commission agent, a U.S. firm
typically can save 15 percent of the U.S. income tax of export
profits. The report estimates that the revenue cost of the
,

program was $790 million in 1985, $811 million in 1986, and
$760 million in 1987. The program is estimated to have increased total U.S. merchandise exports by about $1.5 billion
(or .7 percent of total merchandise exports) in 1985 and in
1986, and by about $1.2 billion (.5 percent) in 1987.

1987.

The Sales Source Rules Report
The Department of the Treasury released its "Report to the
Congress on the Sales Source Rules" on January 13, 1993.
The sales source rules of the Internal Revenue Code determine
when income from the sale of inventory property can be considered to arise within the United States and when
can be
considered to arise abroad. The rules allow a U.S. taxpayer, in
some cases, to treat up to half of the income from the sale of
exports as arising abroad, regardless of where the activity
producing the income actually occurs, and may substantially
it

reduce the effective rate of tax on export income earned by U.S.
exporters with operations in high-tax countries. Based on corporate tax returns for 1986 and 1988 and recent Department
of Commerce surveys of international trade, the report estimates that, compared to rules that would determine the source
of export income based upon where the activity producing the
income occurs, the sales source rules increased U.S. merchandise exports in 1 990 by up to $4 billion and decreased income
tax revenues by $1.8 to 2.1 billion.

Fraternal Benefit Societies Report
The Department of the Treasury released its "Report to the
Congress on Fraternal Benefit Societies" on January 1 5, 1 993.
The report examines the operations of large fraternal benefit
societies as mandated under section 1012 (c) of the Tax
Reform Act of 1986. Fraternal Benefit Societies provide insurance and fraternal or club services to members, and charitable
goods and services to the community. They are exempt from
corporate income tax (including tax on their insurance income)
under section 501 (c) (8) of the Internal Revenue Code. The
report concludes that the insurance operations of fraternal
benefit societies are similar to those of commercial insurers.
Fraternal benefit societies do not appear to use their tax

exemption to compete unfairly with commercial insurers in
terms of price or to operate inefficiently. The study also determines that, in general, large fraternal benefit societies do not
use their tax exemption to subsidize the purchase of insurance
by low-income members or those with poor health. The tax
exemption of their insurance operations does appear to allow

and charitable
goods and services and to accumulate surplus. The report
makes no recommendation as to the taxation of the insurance
income of these entities. However, notes some options-ranging from no change in current tax treatment to taxation of

fraternal benefit societies to finance fraternal

it

insurance income.

papers as part of a broad review of insurance issues. Research
Paper No. 9202, dated July 21, 1992, "Life-Health Insurance
Markets," by John S. Greenlees and James E. Duggan, provides an economic overview of the life-health sector of the U.S.
insurance market. This sector provides a mix of products and
services to firms and individuals including annuities and pension fund management. According to the authors, changes in
revenues and profitability in these product markets could have
"significant implications for the future prospects of the insur-

In Research Paper No. 9203, dated August 14, 1992,
"Property-Casualty Insurance Markets," authors Lucy Huffman
and David Bernstein review financial trends and public policy
issues affecting the property-casualty insurance industry. The
study offers an overview of the structure and financial condition
of the industry and discusses economic and legal factors that
raise public policy issues and prompt solvency concerns, including the impact of the tort liability system on costs and
nonmarket regulatory responses. The study also looks at competition in the insurance industry and summarizes performance
issues in selected individual lines.
