reduce the role of the Federal tax system in the U.S.
economy. The lack of a comprehensive income tax base resulted in
higher marginal tax rates which discouraged saving, investment, and
work effort and encouraged unproductive investment in tax shelters.
Tax prefen-ed activities were favored relative to other activities. The
1986 act enhanced the neutrality of the tax system and reduced distortions. One measure of the effect of the 1986 act on the reduction
in economic distortions caused by the Federal tax system is the
change in the Federal tax expenditure budget.

The tax expenditure budget in the FY 1989 budget reflects the
changes of the 1986 tax act, but does not separately identify
the important changes due to tax reform. For example, the tax
expenditure budget shows a decline in the value of the net exclusion
of pension contributions and earnings from employer plans in FY
1987 of $64.1 billion to $58 7 billion in FY 1989. Similariy, the tax

In order to separately identify the effects of rate reduction and
base broadening on the tax expenditure budget, the Office of Tax
Analysis staff prepared additional estimates of all tax expenditures.
The staff estimated the value of tax expenditures assuming the 1988

base, but with the 1986 tax rate structure. The difference
between the tax expenditure estimates under prior law rules and the
1988 law/1986 rate estimates is one measure of the separate effect
of the 1986 act's base-broadening provisions. The difference
between the 1988 law/1986 rate estimates and the current law
estimates is one measure of the separate effect of the marginal rate

CONCLUSION

The dramatic reduction in tax rates and the broadening of the
base under tax reform significantly reduced the value of Federal
resource allocation programs run through the Tax Code. The repeal
and scaleback of numerous tax expenditure provisions facilitated the
transition into a lower tax rate environment. Lower tax rates, in turn,
reduced the value of tax expenditure provisions otherwise untouched

Federal fiscal operations (FFO) tables are

designed to provide a summary of data relating to Federal fiscal

daily reports from the Federal Reserve banks. These reports detail
accounting transactions affecting receipts and outlays of the Federal
Government and off-budget Federal entities, and their related effect

Budget authority usually takes the form of "appropriations"
which permit obligations to be incurred and payments to be made.
Most appropriations for current operations are made available for
obligation only during a specified fiscal year (annual appropriations).
Some are tor a specified longer period (multiple-year appropriations).
Others, including most of those for construction, some for research,
and many for trust funds, are made available for obligation until the
amount appropriated has been expended or until the objectives have
been attained (no-year appropriations).
Budget authority can be made available by Congress for
and disbursement during a fiscal year from a succeeding
year's appropriations (advance funding). For many education
programs. Congress provides forward funding-budget authority
made available for obligation in one fiscal year for the financing of
ongoing grant programs during the succeeding fiscal year. When
advantageous to the Federal Government, an appropriation is
provided by Congress that will become available 1 year or more
beyond the fiscal year for which the appropriation act is passed
(advance appropriations). Included as advance appropriations are
appropriafions related to multiyear budget requests.

Fourth-Quarter Receipts

The following capsule analysis of budget receipts, by source, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1988 supplements fiscal data earlier reported in the fall Issue 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.-lndividual income tax receipts

through September of 1988 were $0.9
billion higher than the prior year comparable period. Withheld
receipts were up $1.9 billion, nonwithheld receipts down $0.6
billion, and refunds were up $0.4 billion. Individual receipts
were relatively unchanged from the prior year, despite an
underlying increase in personal income. The effects of the

growth in personal income were apparently mitigated by the
rate decrease associated with the second year of the Tax

ago. This quarterly decline took place even though total net
receipts for fiscal 1988 were $10.27 billion greater than the
prior fiscal year. The relative decline in fourth-quarter
receipts was the result of last year's safe-harbor rules for
corporate estimated payments which increased the share of
fourth-quarter corporate receipts for 1987. Total net receipts

1988 were $94.16

ago quarter is the result of exceptionally high
September of 1987, due to an accelerated payment of State unemployment insurance (Ul) debt. The reduction in State Ul debt and the improved economy has caused
a reduction in the average unemployment insurance tax rate.
Wage increases have approximately balanced the drop in
average tax rate; however, total Ul collections for fiscal 1988
are below the fiscal 1987 level due to the 1987 payment
acceleration. Collections for fiscal 1988 were $24.58 billion,

increase of 6.5 percent over the same quarter in the previous
year. The continued slowdown in receipts growth reflects the
stock market performance in the fall of 1987 as well as the
phaseout of several law changes.

ACCOUNT OF THE

U.S.

TREASURY

SOURCE AND AVAILABILITY OF THE BALANCE IN THE ACCOUNT OF THE

The operating cash of the Treasury is maintained in Treasury's
accounts with the Federal Reserve banks and branches and in tax
and loan accounts. Major information sources include the Daily
Balance Wire received from the Federal Reserve banks and
branches, and electronic transfers through the Treasury Financial
Communications System. As the balances in the accounts at the
Federal Reserve banks become depleted, they are restored by
calling in (withdrawing) funds from thousands of financial institutions
throughout the country authorized to maintain tax and loan accounts.

Law 95-147, the Treasury implemented
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
in the program. Depositaries that wish to retain funds deposited in
their tax and loan accounts in interest-bearing obligations participate
under the Note Option; depositaries that wish to remit the funds to
the Treasury's account at Federal Reserve banks participate under
the Remittance Option.

The tax and loan system permits the Treasury to collect funds
through financial institutions and to leave the funds in Note Option
depositaries and in the financial communities in which they arise until
such time as the Treasury needs the funds for its operations. In this
way the Treasury is able to neutralize the effect of its fluctuating
operations on Note Option financial institution reserves and the
economy.

FEDERAL DEBT
INTRODUCTION

Treasury securities

(i.e.,

public debt securities) comprise

most

of

the Federal debt, with securities issued by other Federal agencies
accounting for the remainder. In addition to the data on the Federal
debt presented in the tables in this section of the quarterly Treasury
Bulletin, the Treasury publishes detailed data on the public debt

outstanding in the fk^onthly Statement of the Public Debt of the
United States and on agency securities and the investments of Federal Government accounts in Federal securities in the Monthly
Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United States

Table FD-l.-Summary of Federal Debt

The Federal debt outstanding is summarized as to holdings of
and agency securities by the public, which includes the
Federal Reserve, and by Federal agencies, largely the social secu-

public debt

and other Federal retirement trust funds. Greater detail on holdings of Federal securities by particular classes of investors is presented in the ownership tables, OFS-1 and OFS-2, of the Treasury

as to type of security. The difference between interest-bearing and total public debt securities reflects outstanding matured Treasury securities on which interest has ceased
to accrue. The Federal Financing Bank (FFB) is under the supervision of the Treasury, and FFB securities shown in this table are held
by a U.S. Government account.
Interest-bearing

securities are presented

Table FD-3.--Government Account Series

The average maturity of the privately held marketable Treasury
debt has increased gradually since it hit a trough of 2 years, 5
months, in December 1975. In March 1971, the Congress enacted a
limited exception to the 4-1/4-percent interest rate ceiling on Treasury lx)nds that permitted the Treasury to offer securities maturing in
more than 7 years at current market rates of interest for the first time
since 1965. The exception to the 4-1/4-percent interest rate ceiling
has been expanded since 1971 to authorize the Treasury to continue
to issue long-term securities. The volume of privately held Treasury
marketable securities by maturity class reflects the remaining period
to maturity of Treasury bills, notes, and bonds, and the average
length comprises an average of remaining periods to maturity,
weighted by the amount of each security held by private investors
(i.e.,
excludes the Government accounts and Federal Reserve
banks).

Table FD-6.--Debt Subject to SUtutory Limitation

The statutory debt ceiling is compared with the outstanding debt
subject to limit. The other debt category includes certain Federal
debt that the Congress has designated by statute to be subject to the
debt ceiling. The changes in non-interest-bearing debt shown in the
last

Nonmarketable Treasury securities held by U.S. Government
accounts are summarized as to Issues to particular funds within the
Government. Many of the funds invest in par-value special series
nonmarketables at statutorily determined interest rates, while others
whose statutes do not prescribe an interest rate formula invest in
market-based special Treasury securities whose terms mirror the
terms of marketable Treasury securities.

Certain Federal agencies are authorized by statute to borrow
from the Treasury, largely to finance direct loan programs. In addition, agencies such as the Bonneville Power Administration are
authorized to borrow from the Treasury to finance capital projects.
The Treasury finances such loans to the Federal agencies with is-

sues of public debt securities.

FEDERAL AGENCIES' FINANCIAL REPORTS
INTRODUCTION
Section 114 of the Budget and Accounting Procedures Act of
(31 U.S.C. 3513a) requires the Secretary of the Treasury to
prepare reports on the financial operations of the U.S. Government
and provides that each executive agency must furnish the Secretary
of the Treasury such reports and information relating to the agency's
financial condition and operations as the Secretary may require. The
provisions do not apply to the legislative and judicial branches of the
Federal Government; however, these entities are encouraged to
submit the prescribed reports so the Seaetary of the Treasury can
prepare comprehensive reports on all the financial activities of the
U.S. Government.

INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL STATISTICS
These indices are presented to provide measures of the general

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS
INTRODUCTION

Background
Data relating to capital movements between the United States
and foreign countries have been collected in some form since 1935.
Reports are filed with district Federal Reserve banks by commercial
banks, other depository institutions, bank holding companies,
securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking enterprises in the
United States. Statistics on the principal types of data by country or
geographical area are then consolidated and are published in the
Treasury

Bulletin.

The reporting forms and instructions
International Capital (TIC) Reporting System

used in the Treasury
have been revised a

of times to meet changing conditions and to increase the
usefulness of the published statistics. The most recent, general
revision of the report forms became effective with the banking
reports as of April 30, 1978, and with the nonbanking reports as of
December 31, 1978. Revised forms and instructions are developed
with the cooperation of other Government agencies and the Federal
Reserve System and in consultations with representatives of banks,

Banks, other depository institutions, and some brokers and
dealers file monthly reports covering their dollar liabilities to, and
dollar claims on, foreigners in a number of countries. Twice a year,
as of June 30 and December 31, they also report the same liabilities
and claims items with respect to foreigners in countries not shown
separately on the monthly reports. Quarterly reports are filed with
respect to liabilities and claims denominated in foreign currencies
vis-a-vis foreigners. Effective January 31,
1984, the specified
exemption level applicable to the monthly and quarterly banking
reports was raised from $10 million to $15 million. There is no
separate exemption level for the semiannual reports.

Basic Definitions

Quarterly reports are

The term "foreigner" as used in the Treasury reports covers all
institutions and individuals domiciled outside the United States,
including U.S. citizens domiciled abroad, and the foreign branches,
subsidiaries, and other affiliates abroad of U.S. banks and business
concerns; the central governments, central banks, and other official
institutions of foreign countries, wherever located; and international
and regional organizations, wherever located. The term "foreigner"
also includes persons

known

the United States to the extent that they are
by reporting institutions to be acting on behalf of foreigners.
in

In general, data are reported opposite the foreign country or
geographical area in which the foreigner is domiciled, as shown on
the records of reporting institutions For a number of reasons, the
geographical breakdown of the reported data may not in all cases
reflect the ultimate ownership of the assets. Reporting institutions
are not expected to go beyond the addresses shown on their
records, and so may not be aware of the country of domicile of the
ultimate beneficiary.
Furthermore, U.S. liabilities arising from
deposits of dollars with foreign banks are reported in the Treasury
statistics as liabilities to foreign banks, whereas the liability of the
foreign bank receiving the deposit may be to foreign official
institutions or to residents of another country.

Description of Statistics

presents data on liabilities to foreigners reported by
banks, other depository institutions, brokers, and dealers in the
United States. Beginning April 1978, the following major changes
were made in the reporting coverage: Amounts due to banks' own
foreign offices are reported separately; a previous distinction
between short-term and long-term liabilities was eliminated; a
separation was provided of the liabilities of the respondents
themselves from their custody liabilifies to foreigners; and foreign
currency liabilities are only available quarterly. Also, beginning April
1978, the data on liabilifies were made more complete by extending
to securities brokers and dealers the requirement to report certain of

Another Important change In the claims reporting, tieginning
with new quarterly data as of June 30, 1978, was the adoption of a
broadened concept of "foreign public borrower," which replaced the
previous category of "foreign official institution" to produce more
meaningful information on lending to the public sector of foreign
countries.

The term

"foreign public borrower'

countries and of their possessions; foreign central banks, stabilization funds, and exchange authorities; corporations and other
agencies of central governments, including development banks,

provincial, and local governments of foreign countries and their
departments and agencies; and any international or regional
organization or subordinate or affiliated agency thereof, created by
treaty or convention between sovereign states.

includes supplementary statistics on U.S. banks'
and claims on, foreigners. The supplementary data on
banks' loans and credits to nonbank foreigners combine selected
information from the TIC reports witii data from the monthly Federal
Reserve 2502 reports submitted for major foreign branches of U.S.
banks. Other supplementary data on U.S. banks' dollar liabilities to,
and banks' own dollar claims on, countries not regularly reported
separately are available semiannually in the June and December

Section V contains data on ti-ansactions in all types of long-term
domestic and foreign securities by foreigners as reported by banks,
brokers, and other entities in tiie United States (except nonmarketable U.S. Treasury notes, foreign series; and nonmarketable
U.S. Treasury bonds and notes, foreign currency series, which are

shown in the "International Financial Statistics" section, table IFS-3).
The data cover new issues of securities, transactions in outstanding
issues, and redemptions of securities. They include transactions
executed in the United States for the account of foreigners, and
executed abroad for the account of reporting institutions

and U.S. dollars held abroad. Reporting has been required pursuant
of Public Law 93-110, an amendment to the Par Value

EXCHANGE STABILIZATION FUND
INTRODUCTION
Background

ments as liabilities, they must be redeemed by the ESF only in the
event of liquidation of, or U.S. withdrawal from, the SDR Department

The Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) was established under
the Gold Reserve Act ot January 30, 1934 (31 U.S.C. 822a). This act
authorized the establishment in the Department of the Treasury of a
stabilization fund to be operated under the exclusive control of the

of the

Secretary of the Treasury, with the approval of the President, for the
purpose of stabilizing the exchange value of the dollar. Subsequent
amendment of the Gold Reserve Act modified the original purpose
somewhat to reflect termination of the fixed exchange rate system.

received and other legal commitments against appropriations, all
pursuant to section 1311 of the Supplemental Appropriation Act of
1955 (31 U.S.C. 200). These commitments will become a liability

undelivered orders insofar as (1) they are not legal commitments
against obligations, (2) a longer period of time will elapse before they

uncertainty as to a possible loss, and they will be ultimately resolved
when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The amounts
reported are agency projections and are stated in terms of maximum

financial commitment) without regard to probability of occurrence
and without deduction for existing and contingent assets which would

History

Statements of currency and coin outstanding and in circulation
have been published by the Department of the Treasury since 1888.
These statements were originally prepared monthly by the Division
of Loans and Currency, which was then under the Office of the Secretary of the Treasury but later became part of the Public Debt Service (currently known as the Bureau of the Public Debt) in 1929. The
statement was published with the title "Circulation Statement of
United States Money" from 1923 through December 31, 1965. Con-

December

September

1951, the
Office of the U.S. Treasurer published a statement entitled "Monthly
Statement-Paper Currency of Each Denomination Outstanding."
Two months after the Office of the U.S. Treasurer assumed publication of the "Circulation Statement of United States Money," a revision
was made to the statement to include denomination detail of the

Publication of the "Monthly Statement-Paper
Each Denomination Outstanding" was discontinued, and
the revised version which combines information from both statements became known as the United States Currency and Coin Outstanding and in Circulation Statement. The statement in 1983
ceased to be published as a separate, monthly release and instead
was incorporated into the quarterly Treasury Bulletin as a special

currency

lssue-1863 ($5 to $1,000 notes), (d) Fourth lssue-1863
$10,000 notes), and (e) Fifth lssue-1901 ($10 notes).

"Fractional coins" include subsidiary coins in denominations of
50 cents, 25 cents, and 10 cents and minor coins (5 cents and 1
cent).

Reporting Sources

of

Data used in the preparation of the US. Currency and Coin
Outstanding and in Circulation Statement is derived from monthly
reports required from Treasury offices, various U.S. Mint offices, the
Federal Reserve banks, and the Federal Reserve Board. Such reports convey information about the amount, class, and denomination
of new issues of currency and/or coin, of destroyed and replaced
currency, and of currency and coins withdrawn from circulation. Estimates of population from the Bureau of the Census are used in the
calculation of money circulated per capita.
