four quarters of the year. This rate was an improvement over
the 1.3 percent in 1995 and in line with the 3.5 percent
growth in 1994. [On an annual average basis, real GDP rose
by 2.5 percent in 1996.]
Growth over the year was boosted by a 4.7 percent annual
rate of gain in the final quarter, well above the 2.1 percent
pace in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, growth in the
foreign trade sector improved dramatically, and consumer
spending rebounded to a 3.4 percent annual rate from an increase of just 0.5 percent in the third quarter.
Private nonresidential investment continued to grow rapidly in 1996, as it has throughout the expansion. Equipment
investment increased 9.4 percent, although growth eased in
the final quarter of the year following a very rapid surge in
the third quarter. Investment in structures accelerated to 8.4
percent in 1996, its fastest pace in 12 years.
Inflation was very low in the fourth quarter and throughtion. The core CPI advanced only 2.6 percent last year,

Real disposable personal income and consumer spending
Real disposable (after-tax) personal income rose at a 2.5
percent annual rate in the fourth quarter and by 2.7 percent
over the entire year, a little less than the 3.1 percent increase
over all of 1995. The composition of growth in 1996 was
nonetheless favorable, as real wage and salary income increased faster than in the previous year. A smaller rise in interest income, along with higher tax payments reflecting in
part the last installment of the 1993 tax hike on upperbracket incomes, accounted for most of the slowdown in total after-tax income.
Real consumer spending picked up in 1996, rising by 2.7
percent over the four quarters compared with 1.9 percent
over all of 1995. Spending rose at a 3.5 percent annual rate
during the first half of the year, slowed abruptly to only 0.5
percent in the third quarter, then rebounded to a 3.4 percent
annual rate in the final quarter of the year.
The share of after-tax income devoted to personal saving
rose to 5.2 percent in the second half of last year from 4.6
percent in the first half. For the year as a whole, the personal
saving rate averaged 4.9 percent, up slightly from 4.7 percent in 1995 and a low 3.8 percent in 1994.
Industrial production and capacity utilization
Industrial production in manufacturing, mining, and utilities grew strongly by 4.3 percent during 1996. This was sub-

stantially above the growth of 1.1 percent registered during
1995.
Manufacturing production grew at a healthy rate of 4.8
percent during the last year. Within manufacturing, the production of computer equipment showed big advances; however, production of motor vehicles and parts on balance
declined during the year. At the end of the year, weather affected the output of utilities. It weakened because the mild
December weather reduced heating requirements.
The industrial capacity utilization rate closed 1996 at 83.5
percent. This was up from 83.0 percent a year earlier, but
still 1.4 percentage points below the peak rate for the current
business cycle expansion of 84.9 percent. The long-term average for the years 1967 through 1995 was 82.0 percent.
Employment and unemployment
Increases in jobs on nonfarm establishment payrolls accelerated to an average of 218,000 per month during 1996 from
185,000 per month during 1995, for a total of 2.6 million
new jobs in 1996. In January of this year, employment rose
by 271,000.

Civilian Unemployment Rate
(In percentages)

Establishment Employment
(Monthly change in thousands)

Strength over the past several years has been centered in
the private service-producing sector of the economy, which
has added 2.4 million jobs since December 1995. Manufacturing employment, which had fallen by 319,000 from its
peak in March 1995 through last September, rose by 53,000
jobs from September through January 1997. Federal Government employment has been on a long-term decline: nonpostal Federal employment has fallen by 320,000 since its
May 1992 peak, and the level in January was the lowest
since May 1996.
The unemployment rate in January was 5.4 percent. Unemployment has been in the narrow band between 5.2 to 5.7

percent of the labor force since October 1994, and has fallen
2.4 percentage points below the June 1992 peak of 7.8 percent. The share of the total working-age population that is
employed rose to a new high of 63.6 percent in January.
Nonfarm productivity and unit labor costs
Nonfarm business productivity, or real output per hour
worked, rose strongly by a 2.2 percent annual rate in the
fourth quarter of 1996. Growth was 1.2 percent over all of
1996, near the long-term trend growth rate of 1.1 percent.
That was a marked improvement over the last 3 years, when
on balance there was no growth.
Hourly compensation costs in the nonfarm business sector
rose by a 3.6 percent annual rate in the fourth quarter and
during the entire year. Labor costs per unit of output, which
combine the impact of growth of compensation and productivity, are a key indicator of potential inflation. The rate rose
at a slow 1.4 percent annual rate in the fourth quarter and by
2.4 percent during all of 1996. Such a low rate of advance indicates little inflationary pressure.
Productivity in manufacturing, included in the nonfarm
business sector, remains strong. It grew by 4.0 percent during 1996. Unit labor costs in manufacturing fell by 0.6 percent during 1996.
Current account balance
The current account is the broadest measure of U.S. transactions with the rest of the world, covering not only trade in
goods and services but income flows as well. The deficit
grew from a recent low of $10 billion in 1991 to a high of
$148 billion in both 1994 and 1995. The widening reflected
the faster pace of U.S. economic growth, which brought in
imports at a more rapid rate than exports.
Through the first three quarters of 1996, the current account deficit widened even further, averaging $164 billion at
an annual rate. This still represented just 2.2 percent of GDP,
however, little changed from the preceding 2 years.
The widening deficit in 1996 reflected deterioration in the
balance on goods and on investment income. In contrast, the
surplus in services trade improved. Growth in the investment income deficit was mainly due to rising interest payments on the rapidly growing foreign holdings of U.S.
Treasury securities.
In the fourth quarter, the deficit balance on goods narrowed dramatically and the services surplus increased even
further. This suggested an improvement in the current account deficit for the final quarter of the year.
Exchange rate of the dollar
The appreciation of the dollar began in the middle of 1995
and continued through 1996. So far in 1997 it has accelerated. Based on the Federal Reserve Board’s trade-weighted
index of the dollar against G-10 currencies, the dollar had
risen by 8.4 percent by the end of 1996 from the all-time
low reached in April 1995. In January, the dollar rose by a
further 2.6 percent.
Most of the dollar deterioration that had occurred in 1994
was against the yen and the deutschemark, and the improvement was also greatest against these currencies. Between
April 1995 and January 1997, the dollar rose by more than
40 percent against the yen and by more than 16 percent
against the deutschemark.
Despite the improvement, the trade-weighted index of the
dollar remains about 6 percent below its recent high of January 1994. Many factors determine the level of exchange
rates in international currency markets. Underlying economic fundamentals in the United States are sound and confidence in the dollar is high.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Interest rates
Since early last year, the Federal Reserve Board has held
the Federal funds rate target constant at 5.25 percent. The unchanging target has been consistent with an economic situation of continuing growth and little inflationary pressure.
Short-term interest rates have similarly remained stable
since then, with the 3-month Treasury bill rate staying near
5.0 percent.
Long-term interest rates moved higher in the early part of
1996 and then eased. Since late last year, long-term rates

(In percentages; Weekly data*)

have turned up a bit. The yield on the 30-year Treasury bond
is currently around 6.8 percent, up from about 6.45 percent
around last November.
Mortgage interest rates have been very favorable. Early in
1996, the rate for a 30-year fixed rate loan was about 7 percent, close to the 25-year lows reached in October 1993.
This rate rose within the year and then fell to less than 7.75
percent by the end of the year, low by historical standards.
In early 1997, the rate increased to around 7.8 percent.
Net national saving and investment
During the first three quarters of 1996, net national saving,
which excludes depreciation to replace worn-out or obsolete
equipment and structures used in production, rose to 6.1 percent of net national product (NNP). That rate was up from
5.1 percent in 1995 and as low as 2.7 percent in 1992. Despite the gains, net saving remains only half as high as the
12 percent of NNP averaged in the 1960’s.

Recent improvement is mainly the result of the narrowing
of the Federal deficit. That has reduced Government dissaving to 1.5 percent of NNP through the first three quarters of
1996 from 4.8 percent in 1992. Private saving, of households and businesses, was equivalent to 7.5 percent of NNP
through the first three quarters of 1996, up a little from a historic low of 6.4 percent in 1994. Even so, private saving is
still well below the nearly 10 percent of NNP averaged in
the 1960’s and 1970’s.
Net domestic investment equaled 7.3 percent of NNP over
the first three quarters of 1996, up from a low of 4.1 percent
in 1991. Foreign inflows were equivalent to 2.2 percent of
NNP, or about one-third of domestic investment. U.S.
sources provided investment equivalent to 5.1 percent of
NNP, less than half the share of NNP averaged in the 1960’s
and 1970’s.
Housing
Housing activity was very strong in 1996. Although bad
weather held down most indicators of the housing market in
December, the year as a whole was one of the best for housing in many years.
Starts of new homes totaled 1.47 million in 1996, the best
year for home building since 1988. Single-family starts increased nearly 8.0 percent over the 1995 level to 1.16 million units. Starts of new multi-family units improved by
almost 13 percent in 1996 to 314,000 units.
Home sales also reached new expansion peaks in 1996,
contributing to the rapid growth in new starts. Sales of new
single-family homes reached 756,000 in 1996, up from
667,000 in 1995 and the highest in 18 years. Sales of existing homes topped the 4 million mark for the first time since
that series began in 1968. The homeownership rate rose to
65.6 percent in the third quarter, the highest in 15 years, before easing back slightly in the fourth quarter.
Rapid growth in employment and income and very favorable readings of consumer confidence fueled the expansion
in the housing market in 1996. Rising mortgage interest
rates during the middle of the year were somewhat offset by
a shift on the part of home buyers to lower-cost adjustable
rate mortgages. Over the final 3 months of the year, fixed
mortgage rates came down to below 8.0 percent for a 30year loan, a very favorable rate by historical standards.
Federal budget deficit
The Federal budget deficit fell to $107.3 billion in fiscal
1996, the lowest in 15 years and about $57 billion below the
level of the previous fiscal year. As a share of GDP, the deficit was 1.4 percent, the smallest share since 1974.
The deficit has been shrinking since fiscal 1992, when it
reached an all-time high of $290 billion. Since then, the deficit has been cut by almost two-thirds, or a total of $183 billion. Strong economic growth and passage of the Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 set the deficit on its
downward course.
Further deficit reduction is expected over the next 6 years,
with the Administration’s “Fiscal Year 1998 Budget” projecting balance by 2002. The deficit is projected to increase
slightly in the current fiscal year as economic growth is expected to return to its long-term growth path, but then the
deficit falls again in each of the next 5 years, showing a
small surplus by fiscal 2002. Receipts are forecast to grow
an average of 4.5 percent a year between fiscal 1996 and fiscal 2002, while growth in outlays is projected to be held to
3.2 percent a year.

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION: Federal Fiscal Operations
Budget authority usually takes the form of appropriations
that allow obligations to be incurred and payments to be made.
Reappropriations are Congressional actions that extend the
availability of unobligated amounts that have expired or would
otherwise expire. These are counted as new budget authority
in the fiscal year of the legislation in which the reappropriation
act is included, regardless of when the amounts were originally
appropriated or when they would otherwise lapse.
Obligations generally are liquidated by the issuance of
checks or the disbursement of cash--outlays. Obligations may
also be liquidated (and outlays recorded) by the accrual of
interest on public issues of Treasury debt securities (including
an increase in redemption value of bonds outstanding); or by
the issuance of bonds, debentures, notes, monetary credits, or
electronic payments.
Refunds of collections generally are treated as reductions
of collections, whereas payments for earned-income tax credits in excess of tax liabilities are treated as outlays. Outlays
during a fiscal year may be for payment of obligations incurred
in prior years or in the same year. Outlays, therefore, flow in
part from unexpended balances of prior year budget authority
and from budget authority provided for the year in which the
money is spent. Total outlays include both budget and offbudget outlays and are stated net of offsetting collections.
Receipts are reported in the tables as either budget receipts
or offsetting collections. They are collections from the public,
excluding receipts offset against outlays. These, also called
governmental receipts, consist mainly of tax receipts (including social insurance taxes), receipts from court fines, certain
licenses, and deposits of earnings by the Federal Reserve
system. Refunds of receipts are treated as deductions from
gross receipts. Total Government receipts are compared with
total outlays in calculating the budget surplus or deficit.
Offsetting collections from other Government accounts or
the public are of a business-type or market-oriented nature.
They are classified as either collections credited to appropriations or fund accounts, or offsetting receipts (i.e., amounts
deposited in receipt accounts). The former normally can be
used without appropriation act by Congress. These occur in
two instances: (1) when authorized by law, amounts collected
for materials or services are treated as reimbursements to
appropriations. For accounting purposes, earned reimbursements are also known as revenues. These offsetting collections
are netted against gross outlays in determining net outlays
from such appropriations; and (2) in the three types of revolving funds (public enterprise, intragovernmental, and trust);
offsetting collections are netted against spending, and outlays
are reported as the net amount.
Offsetting receipts in receipt accounts cannot be used
without appropriation. They are subdivided into three categories: (1) proprietary receipts, or collections from the public,
offset against outlays by agency and by function; (2) intragovernmental transactions, or payments into receipt accounts from

governmental appropriation or fund accounts. They finance
operations within and between Government agencies and are
credited with collections from other Government accounts;
and (3) offsetting governmental receipts which include foreign
cash contributions.
Intrabudgetary transactions are subdivided into three
categories: (1) interfund transactions--payments are from one
fund group (either Federal funds or trust funds) to a receipt
account in the other fund group; (2) Federal intrafund transactions--payments and receipts both occur within the Federal
fund group; and (3) trust intrafund transactions--payments and
receipts both occur within the trust fund group.
Offsetting receipts are generally deducted from budget
authority and outlays by function, subfunction, or agency.
There are four types of receipts, however, that are deducted
from budget totals as undistributed offsetting receipts. They
are: (1) agencies’ payments (including payments by off-budget
Federal entities) as employers into employees’ retirement
funds; (2) interest received by trust funds; (3) rents and royalties on the Outer Continental Shelf lands; and (4) other interest
(i.e., that collected on Outer Continental Shelf money in
deposit funds when such money is transferred into the budget).
The Government has used the unified budget concept set
forth in the “ Report of the President’s Commission on Budget
Concepts” as a foundation for its 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 offbudget Federal entities consist of the two Social Security trust
funds, Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund, and the Postal Service.
Although an off-budget Federal entity’s receipts, outlays,
and surplus or deficit ordinarily are not subject to targets set
by the congressional resolution, the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 [commonly known as
the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act as amended by the Budget
Enforcement Act of 1990 (2 U.S.C. 900-922)] included offbudget surplus or deficit in calculating deficit targets under
that act and in calculating excess deficit. Partly for this reason,
attention has focused on both on- and off-budget receipts,
outlays, and deficit of the Government.
Tables FFO-1, FFO-2, and FFO-3 are published quarterly and cover 5 years of data, estimates for 2 years, detail for
13 months, and fiscal year-to-date data. They provide a summary of data relating to Federal fiscal operations reported by
Federal entities and disbursing officers, and daily reports from
the Federal Reserve banks. They also detail accounting transactions affecting receipts and outlays of the Government and
off-budget Federal entities and their related effect on assets
and liabilities of the Government. Data are derived from the

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS
“Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the
United States Government.”
• Table FFO-1 summarizes the amount of total receipts,
outlays, and surplus or deficit, as well as transactions in
Federal securities, monetary assets, and balances in Treasury
operating cash.
• Table FFO-2 includes on- and off-budget receipts by
source. Amounts represent income taxes, social insurance
taxes, net contributions for other insurance and retirement,
excise taxes, estate and gift taxes, customs duties, and net
miscellaneous receipts.
• Table FFO-3 details on- and off-budget outlays by
agency.
• Table FFO-4 summarizes internal revenue collections
by States and other areas and by type of tax. Amounts reported
are collections made in a fiscal year. They span several tax

7

liability years because they consist of prepayments (i.e., estimated tax payments and taxes withheld by employers for
individual income and Social Security taxes), of payments
made with tax returns, and of subsequent payments made after
tax returns are due or are filed (i.e., payments with delinquent
returns or on delinquent accounts).
It is important to note that these data do not necessarily
reflect the Federal tax burden of individual States. Amounts
are reported based on the primary filing address provided by
each taxpayer or reporting entity. For multistate corporations,
the address may reflect only the State where such a corporation
reported its taxes from a principal office rather than other
States where income was earned or where individual income

Fourth-Quarter Receipts
The following capsule analysis of budget receipts, by source, for the fourth quarter of fiscal
1996 supplements fiscal data reported in the December issue of the “Treasury Bulletin.” At the
time of that issue’s release, not enough data were
available to analyze adequately collections for the
quarter.
Individual income taxes—Individual income tax receipts
were $164.6 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. This
is an increase of $16.7 billion over the comparable quarter for
fiscal 1995. Withheld receipts increased by $12.0 billion and
non-withheld receipts increased by $3.9 billion during this
period. Refunds decreased by $0.9 billion over the comparable fiscal 1995 quarter. There was a decrease of $1.0 billion in
accounting adjustments between individual income tax receipts and the Social Security and Medicare trust funds over
the comparable quarter in fiscal 1995.
Corporate income taxes—Net corporate receipts for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 totaled $43.2 billion. This was
$4.3 billion higher than net receipts for the comparable quarter
of fiscal 1995. The $4.3 billion figure consists of $4.3 billion
in higher estimated and final payments with no change in
refunds. The increase in net receipts mainly reflects higher
corporate profits.
Employment taxes and contributions—Employment
taxes and contributions receipts for the fourth quarter of fiscal
1996 were $117.8 billion, an increase of $9.0 billion over the
comparable prior year quarter. Receipts to the Old-Age Survivors Insurance, Disability Insurance, and Hospital Insurance

trust funds increased by $4.8 billion, $0.6 billion, and $3.5
billion, respectively, over receipts from the comparable prior
year quarter. There was a $1.0 billion adjustment for prior
years liabilities made in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, an
increase of $1.0 billion over the comparable prior year quarter.
Contributions for other insurance and retirement—
Contributions for other retirement were $1.1 billion for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. There was a negligible decrease
over receipts from the comparable quarter of fiscal 1995. The
growth in contributions will remain flat over the next few
years as the number of employees covered by the Federal
employees’ retirement system (FERS) falls slowly relative to
those covered under the civil service retirement system
(CSRS).
Unemployment insurance—Unemployment insurance
receipts for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 were $6.1 billion,
which is a $0.2 billion decrease over the comparable quarter of
fiscal 1995. State taxes deposited in the U.S. Treasury decreased by $0.3 billion, and Federal Unemployment Tax Act
(FUTA) receipts increased by $0.1 billion. Railroad unemployment tax receipts increased negligibly from the comparable quarter of fiscal 1995.
Excise taxes—Net excise tax receipts for the fourth quarter
of fiscal 1996 were $13.9 billion, a decrease of $1.8 billion
over the comparable prior year quarter. Total excise tax refunds for the quarter were $1.1 billion, an increase of $0.6
billion over the comparable prior year quarter. The decrease in
net receipts mainly reflects the expiration of certain excise
taxes.

Budget Results and Financing of the U.S. Government and Fourth-Quarter
Receipts by Source, con.
Estate and gift taxes—Estate and gift tax receipts were
$4.5 billion for the July through September quarter of fiscal
1996. These receipts represent a decrease of $0.8 billion over
the previous quarter, as well as an increase of $0.7 billion over
the same quarter in the previous year.
Customs duties—Customs receipts net of refunds were
$5.1 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. This is
approximately $100 million more than the customs duties
received in the Treasury from the comparable prior year quarter. This difference is attributable to an increase in merchandise imports.

Miscellaneous receipts—Net miscellaneous receipts for
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 were $6.6 billion, an increase
of $1.5 billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Deposits
of earnings by Federal Reserve banks increased by $1.3 billion
over the comparable prior year quarter. Note: During the fourth
quarter, fiscal year totals for miscellaneous receipts were increased by $0.9 billion and $0.8 billion for fiscal 1995 and
fiscal 1996 respectively, to capture reporting for the “Universal
Service Fund.”

Receipts in the various States do not indicate the Federal tax burden of each since, in many
instances, taxes are collected in one State from residents of another State. For example,
withholding taxes reported by employers located near State lines may include substantial
amounts withheld from salaries of employees who reside in neighboring States. Also, the taxes
of some corporations are paid from a principal office, although their operations may be located
in another State, or throughout several States.

Collections of individual income tax (withheld and not withheld) include old-age, survivor’s,
disability, and hospital insurance taxes on salaries and wages (FICA) and self-employment
income (SECA).
3
Includes fiduciary income tax collections of $8 billion.

ACCOUNT OF THE U.S. TREASURY

INTRODUCTION: Source and Availability of the
Balance in the Account of the U.S. Treasury
The Treasury’s operating cash is maintained in accounts
with the Federal Reserve banks (FRBs) and branches, as well
as in tax and loan accounts in other financial institutions. Major
information sources include the Daily Balance Wire received
from the FRBs and branches, and electronic transfers through
the Letter of Credit Payment, Fedline Payment, and Fedwire
Deposit Systems. As the FRB accounts are depleted, funds are
called in (withdrawn) from thousands of tax and loan accounts
at financial institutions throughout the country.

Note Option. The program permits 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 Treasury needs the funds for its operations. In
this way, Treasury is able to neutralize the 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

Deposits to tax and loan accounts occur as customers of
financial institutions deposit tax 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.

FEDERAL DEBT

INTRODUCTION: Federal Debt
Treasury securities (i.e., public debt securities) comprise
most of the Federal debt, with securities issued by other
Federal agencies accounting for the rest. Tables in this section
of the “Treasury Bulletin” reflect the total. Further detailed
information is published in the “Monthly Statement of the
Public Debt of the United States.” Likewise, information on
agency securities and on investments of Federal Government
accounts in Federal securities is published in the “Monthly
Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United
States Government.”
• Table FD-1 summarizes the Federal debt by listing
public debt and agency securities held by the public, including
the Federal Reserve. It also includes debt held by Federal
agencies, largely by the Social Security and other Federal
retirement trust funds. The net unamortized premium and
discount are also listed by total Federal securities, securities
held by Government accounts, 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 securities by particular classes of investors, see the ownership tables, OFS-1 and OFS-2.)
• Table FD-2 categorizes by type interest-bearing marketable and nonmarketable Treasury securities. The difference
between interest-bearing and total public debt securities reflects outstanding matured Treasury securities--that is, unredeemed securities that have matured and are no longer
accruing interest. Because the Federal Financing Bank is under
the supervision of Treasury, its securities are held by a U.S.
Government account.
• In table FD-3, nonmarketable Treasury securities held
by U.S. Government accounts are summarized by issues to
particular funds within Government. Many of the funds invest
in par value special series nonmarketables at interest rates
determined by law. Others invest in market-based special
Treasury securities whose terms mirror those of marketable
securities.
• Table FD-4 presents interest-bearing securities issued
by Government agencies. Federal agency borrowing has declined in recent years, in part because the Federal Financing
Bank has provided financing to other Federal agencies. (Fed-

eral agency borrowing from Treasury is presented in the
“Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the
United States Government.”)
• Table FD-5 illustrates the average length of marketable
interest-bearing public debt held by private investors and the
maturity distribution of that debt. The average length has
increased gradually since it hit a low of 2 years, 5 months in
December 1975. It had reached a high of 6 years, 4 months in
May 1991. The average length has decreased over time so that
during most of 1996 the average length has been at 5 years, 3
months. In March 1971, Congress enacted a limited exception
to the amount of bonds with rates greater than 4-1/4 percent
which could be held by the public. This permitted Treasury to
offer securities maturing in more than 7 years at current market
rates of interest for the first time since 1965. In March 1976
the definition of a bond was changed to include those securities
longer than 10 years to maturity. This exception has expanded
since 1971 authorizing Treasury to continue to issue long-term
securities, and the ceiling on Treasury bonds was repealed on
November 10, 1988. The volume of privately held Treasury
marketable securities by maturity class reflects the remaining
period to maturity of Treasury bills, notes, and bonds. The
average length is comprised of an average of remaining periods
to maturity, weighted by the amount of each security held by
private investors. In other words, computations of average
length exclude Government accounts and the Federal Reserve
banks.
• In table FD-6, the debt ceiling is compared with the
outstanding debt subject to limitation by law. The other debt
category includes Federal debt Congress has designated as
being subject to the debt ceiling. Changes in the non-interestbearing debt shown in the last column reflect maturities of
Treasury securities on nonbusiness days, which can be redeemed on the next business day.
• Table FD-7 details Treasury holdings of securities issued by Government corporations and other agencies. Certain
Federal agencies are authorized to borrow money 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. Treasury, in turn, finances these loans by selling
Treasury securities to the public.

INTRODUCTION: Public Debt Operations
Chapter 31 of Title 31 of the United States Code 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 10 years from the issue date. Each
marketable security is listed in the “Monthly 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 interestbearing marketable public debt securities other than regular
weekly and 52-week 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 four weeks. Treasury bills mature each
Thursday. New issues of 13-week bills are reopenings of
26-week bills. The 26-week bill issued every fourth 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.
Treasury accepts noncompetitive tenders of up to $1 million for bills and $5 million for notes and bonds in each auction
of securities to encourage participation of individuals and
smaller institutions.
• Table PDO-3 lists the results of auctions of marketable
securities, other than weekly bills, in chronological order over
the past 2 years. Included are: notes and bonds from table
PDO-1; 52-week bills from table PDO-2; and data for cash
management bills.
• Table PDO-4 indicates the total amount of marketable
securities allotted to each class of investor. The Federal Reserve banks tally into investor classes the tenders in each
auction of marketable securities other than weekly auctions of
13- and 26-week bills.

OWNERSHIP OF FEDERAL SECURITIES

INTRODUCTION: Ownership of Federal Securities
Federal securities presented in the following tables are
public debt securities such as savings bonds, bills, notes, and
bonds that the Treasury issues. The tables also detail debt
issued by other Federal agencies under special financing
authorities. [See the Federal debt (FD) tables for a more
complete description of the Federal debt.]
• Table OFS-1 presents Treasury marketable and nonmarketable securities and debt issued by other Federal agencies
held by Government accounts, the Federal Reserve banks, and
private investors. Social Security and Federal retirement trust
fund investments comprise much of the Government account
holdings.

The Federal Reserve banks acquire Treasury securities in
the market as a means of executing monetary policy.
• Table OFS-2 presents the estimated amount of public
debt securities held by private investors. Information is obtained from sources such as the Federal financial institution
regulatory agencies. State, local, and foreign holdings include
special issues of nonmarketable securities to municipal entities
and foreign official accounts. They also include municipal,
foreign official, and private holdings of marketable Treasury
securities. (See footnotes to the table for description of investor
categories.)

INTRODUCTION: Market Yields
The tables and charts in this section present yields on
Treasury marketable securities, and compare long-term yields
on Treasury securities with yields on long-term corporate and
municipal securities.
• Table MY-1 lists Treasury market bid yields at constant
maturities for bills, notes, and bonds. The Treasury yield curve
in the accompanying chart is based on current market bid
quotations on the most actively traded Treasury securities as
of 3:30 p.m. on the last business day of the calendar quarter.
The Treasury uses quotations obtained by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York to derive the yield curve, based on
semiannual interest payments and read at constant maturity
points to develop a consistent data series. Yields on Treasury
bills are coupon equivalent yields of bank discount rates at

which Treasury bills trade in the market. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System publishes the Treasury
constant maturity data series in its weekly H.15 press release.
• Table MY-2 shows average yields of long-term Treasury,
corporate, and municipal bonds. The long-term Treasury average yield is the 30-year constant maturity yield. The corporate
bond average yield is developed by Treasury by calculating
reoffering yields on new long-term securities maturing in at
least 20 years and rated Aa by Moody’s Investors Service. The
municipal bond average yield prior to 1991 was compiled by
Treasury. Beginning with January 1991, the average yield is
the “Municipal Bond Yield Average,” published by Moody’s
Investors Service for 20-year reoffering yields on selected
Aa-rated general obligations. See the footnotes for further
explanation.

U.S. CURRENCY AND COIN OUTSTANDING AND IN CIRCULATION

57

INTRODUCTION: U.S. Currency and Coin Outstanding and in Circulation
The U.S. Currency and Coin Outstanding and in Circulation (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 of paper money. It also gives an estimated average of
currency and 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 it was incorporated into the
“Treasury Bulletin.” The USCC comes from monthly reports
compiled by Treasury offices, various U.S. Mint offices, the
Federal Reserve banks, and the Federal Reserve Board.

Beginning July 1974, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) adopted a technique for valuing
the special drawing right (SDR) based on a weighted-average of exchange rates for the
currencies of selected member countries. The U.S. SDR holdings and reserve position in the
IMF are also valued on this basis beginning July 1974.
2
Treasury values its gold stock at $42.2222 per fine troy ounce and pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 5117
(b) issues gold certificates to the Federal Reserve at the same rate against all gold held.
3
Includes allocations of SDRs in the Special Drawing Account in the IMF, plus or minus
transactions in SDRs.

4

Includes holdings of Treasury and Federal Reserve System; beginning November 1978,
these are valued at current market exchange rates or, where appropriate, at such other rates
as may be agreed upon by the parties to the transactions.
5
The United States has the right to purchase foreign currencies equivalent to its reserve
position in the IMF automatically if needed. Under appropriate conditions, the United States
could purchase additional amounts related to the U.S. quota.

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

INTRODUCTION: Capital Movements
Treasury collects information about the transference of financial assets and other portfolio capital movements between
the United States and foreigners, and has since 1935. Commercial banks and other depository institutions, bank holding
companies, securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking
enterprises in the United States file capital movement reports
with district Federal Reserve banks.
Forms and instructions are developed with the cooperation
of other Government agencies and the Federal Reserve System,
and in consultation with representatives of banks, securities
firms, and nonbanking enterprises. Copies of the reporting
forms and instructions may be obtained from the Office of
International Financial Analysis, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Economic Policy, Department of the Treasury,
Washington, D.C., 20220, or from district Federal Reserve
banks.
In general, information is reported opposite the country or
geographical area where the foreigner is located, as shown on
records of reporting institutions. However, information may
not always reflect the ultimate ownership of assets. Reporting
institutions are not required to go beyond addresses shown on
their records, and so may not be aware of the actual country of
domicile of the ultimate beneficiary.
Transactions with branches or agencies of foreign official
institutions, wherever located, are reported opposite the country that has sovereignty over the institutions. Transactions with
international and regional organizations are not reported opposite any country, but are accounted for in regional groupings of
such organizations. The only exception is information pertaining to the Bank for International Settlements, which is reported
opposite ‘Other Europe.’
Banks and other depository institutions, bank holding companies, International Banking Facilities (IBFs), securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking enterprises in the United
States must file reports. These enterprises include the branches,
agencies, subsidiaries, and other affiliates in the United States
of foreign banking and nonbanking firms. Those with liabilities, claims, or securities transactions below specified exemption levels are exempt from reporting.
Banks and 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, June 30 and December 31, they also report the
same liabilities and claims items attributed to foreigners in
countries not shown separately on the monthly reports. Quarterly reports are filed for liabilities and claims denominated in
foreign currencies. The exemption level applicable to these
banking reports is $15 million.
Banks and other depository institutions, securities brokers
and dealers, and other enterprises report monthly their transactions with foreigners in long-term securities. They must report
securities transactions with foreigners if their aggregate purchases or their aggregate sales amount to at least $2 million
during the covered month.
Exporters, importers, industrial and commercial concerns,
financial institutions (other than banks, other depository institutions, and brokers), and other nonbanking enterprises must
file reports quarterly if liabilities to, or claims on, unaffiliated
foreigners amount to $10 million or more at the end of the
covered quarter.

Nonbanking enterprises also report each month their aggregate U.S. dollar denominated deposit and certificates of deposit
claims of $10 million or more on banks abroad.
The data in these tables do not cover all types of reported
capital movements between the United States and other countries. The principal exclusions are the intercompany capital
transactions of nonbanking business enterprises in the United
States with their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with
their foreign parent companies (own foreign offices), and
capital transactions of the U.S. Government. Consolidated data
on all types of international capital transactions are published
by the Department of Commerce in its regular reports on the
United States balance of payments.
• Section I presents liabilities to foreigners reported by U.S.
banks and other depository institutions, as well as brokers and
dealers. Dollar liabilities are reported monthly; those denominated in foreign currencies are reported quarterly. Respondents
report certain of their own liabilities and a wide range of their
custody liabilities to foreigners.
• Section II presents claims on foreigners reported by U.S.
banks and other depository institutions, brokers, and dealers.
Data on banks’ claims held for their own account are collected
monthly. Information on claims held for their domestic customers as well as on foreign currency claims, is collected on a
quarterly basis only. Maturity data are reported according to
time remaining to maturity. Reporting also covers certain items
held by brokers and dealers in the United States.
• Section III contains supplementary data on dollar liabilities to, and dollar claims on, countries not listed separately on
the monthly reports submitted by banks, other depository
institutions, brokers and dealers in the United States. The
supplementary reports are filed semiannually as of the end of
June and December.
• Section IV shows the liabilities to, and claims on, unaffiliated foreigners of exporters, importers, industrial and commercial concerns, financial institutions (other than banks, other
depository institutions, and brokers), and other nonbanking
enterprises in the United States. Information does not include
accounts of nonbanking enterprises in the United States with
their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with their foreign parent companies. These are reported by business enterprises to the Department of Commerce on its direct investment
forms. Data exclude claims on foreigners held through banks
in the United States.
• Section V contains information on transactions with
foreigners in long-term domestic and foreign securities as
reported by banks, brokers, and other entities in the United
States. The data cover transactions executed in the United
States for the accounts of foreigners, and transactions executed
abroad for the accounts of reporting institutions and their
domestic customers. This includes transactions in newly issued
securities as well as transactions in, and redemptions of, outstanding issues. However, the data do not include nonmarketable Treasury bonds and notes shown in table IFS-3.
The geographical breakdown of the transactions data does
not necessarily reflect the domicile of the ultimate owners of,
or the original issuers of, the securities. This is because the path
of a security is not tracked prior to its being purchased from,
or after it is sold to, a foreigner in a reportable transaction. That
is, before it enters and after it departs the reporting system,

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

ownership of a security may be transferred between foreigners
of different countries. Such transfers may occur any number
of times and are concealed among the net figures for U.S.
transactions opposite individual countries. Hence, the geo-

65

graphical breakdown shows only the country of domicile of
the foreign buyers and sellers of securities in a particular round
of transactions.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, British West Indies, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

U.S. banking liabilities to foreigners, excluding
liabilities represented by long-term securities, are
concentrated in international financial centers. The
chart and table show that nearly two-thirds of U.S.
liabilities are currently reported opposite the United
Kingdom, the rest of Europe and, most notably, the
offshore banking centers in the Caribbean. An additional 21 percent of U.S. liabilities are held by foreigners domiciled in Japan and the rest of Asia.
After declining moderately through the third
quarter of 1996, total U.S. banking liabilities to
foreigners expanded $44.6 billion in the fourth quarter, bringing the level to $1,245.6 billion. This represents an increase of $36.3 billion, or 3 percent, over

the 1995 level, which is the lowest annual rate of
growth in U.S. liabilities over the period shown. For
the year, U.S. liabilities increased substantially opposite the United Kingdom ($15.7 billion) and “all
other contries” ($31.9 billion), with $28.4 billion of
the latter amount attributable to Canada, Mexico, and
several other countries in Latin America. Heaviest
activity occurred in the fourth quarter. Despite a
fourth quarter increase of $16.6 billion opposite the
British West Indies, U.S. liabilities to the Caribbean
banking centers overall grew only marginally in
1996. Liabilities to other Europe, Japan, and other
Asia fell by $15.1 billion combined.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, British West Indies, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

U.S. banking claims on foreigners, excluding
claims represented by long-term securities, are highly
concentrated in international financial centers. The
chart and table show that close to two-thirds of U.S.
claims are currently reported opposite the United
Kingdom, other Europe and, most notably, the offshore banking centers in the Caribbean. An additiional 21 percent of U.S. claims are on foreigners
domiciled in Japan and the rest of Asia.
Total U.S. banking claims on foreigners, which
were virtually static through the first half of 1996,
expanded $30.2 billion in the third quarter to $763.6
billion. This new high for U.S. claims represents an

increase of $28.1 billion, or 3.8 percent, over the 1995
level. Compared with yearend 1995, third quarter
claims were up $25 billion opposite the United Kingdom, and strong gains ($29.8 billion combined) were
also realized for other Europe, other Asia, and “all
other countries.” Canada was one important area of
growth for the latter group, accounting for $7.7 billion of new U.S. claims. Claims on the Caribbean
banking centers and Japan changed little in the third
quarter, remaining off from 1995 levels by $26.5
billion combined. Banking claims on Japan remained
at one of their lowest levels in recent years.

Includes Bahamas, Bermuda, British West Indies, Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

As reported by U.S. banks, brokers, and other
persons, foreigners’ transactions in long-term U.S.
securities (i.e., U.S. Treasury and Government
agency bonds and notes, and U.S. corporate bonds
and stocks) are conducted largely through international financial centers. The table presents aggregate
net purchases on an annual basis for 1993 through
1996, as well as cumulative activity during the
fourth quarter of 1996. The figures show an overall,
steady increase in foreigners’ net purchases, or gross
purchases minus gross sales, of U.S. securities.
Total net purchases of U.S. securities by foreigners reached a record annual high of $384.1
billion during 1996. This represents an increase of
$152.2 billion, or 65.6 percent, over cumulative net

purchases in 1995. For the areas shown, 1996 increases were concentrated in the fourth quarter. In
the case of the Caribbean banking centers, net fourth
quarter activity of $35.5 billion constituted 71 percent of that area’s 1996 net purchases. The United
Kingdom’s net purchases, which alone accounted
for 32 percent of total 1996 net purchases, were
equally heavy in the fourth quarter. In other Europe,
annual net purchases were greatest opposite Germany and Spain. And in other Asia, foreigners in
China, Hong Kong and Singapore were the major
purchasers of U.S. securities. For the year, nearly 64
percent of foreigners’ total net purchases was comprised of U.S. Treasury bonds and notes.

* Net purchases by U.S. investors equal net sales by foreigners, or gross sales
minus gross purchases of securities.

Annual average.

U.S. net purchases of foreign bonds and stocks
in the 1990’s stand in marked contrast to the comparatively low levels of average annual activity
throughout the 1980’s. The heightened activity in
foreign securities is due largely to continuing international diversification among U.S. institutional investors, including pension funds and investment
companies. The table presents aggregate U.S. net
purchases on an annual average basis for 1980
through 1989, and on an annual basis for 1993
through 1996. It also gives U.S. net purchases during
the fourth quarter of 1996.
The chart and table show that U.S. net purchases
of foreign securities continued at a strong pace in
1996. Net purchases of foreign bonds surged during
the second half of the year, particularly during the
fourth quarter. However, net purchases for the year
remained below 1995 levels. U.S. net purchases of

foreign bonds amounting to $3 billion or more were
transacted with foreigners in the United Kingdom,
Germany, Bermuda, Hong Kong, and Australia. U.S.
investors recorded $3.7 billion net sales of foreign
bonds opposite Japan. For foreign stocks, the first
quarter of 1996 was the strongest quarter ever for
U.S. net purchases, and activity through the first half
of the year was at near record levels. Net purchases
stalled in the second half, though, falling to levels
not seen since late 1994 and early 1995. Nevertheless, net purchases of foreign stocks for 1996 were
were up over 1995. U.S. net purchases of foreign
stocks of $3 billion or more were reported opposite
France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Canada,
Hong Kong, and Japan. Although strong, 1996 net
purchases opposite Japan were down more than 50
percent from 1995.

INTRODUCTION: Foreign Currency Positions
The “Treasury Bulletin” publishes series on foreign currency holdings of large foreign exchange market participants.
The series provide information on positions in derivative instruments, such as foreign exchange futures and options, that
are increasingly used in establishing foreign exchange positions but were not covered in the old reports.
The information is based on reports of large foreign exchange market participants on holdings of five major foreign
currencies (Canadian dollar, German mark, Japanese yen,
Swiss franc, and pound sterling). U.S.-based businesses file a
consolidated report for their domestic and foreign subsidiaries,
branches, and agencies. U.S. subsidiaries of foreign entities
file only for themselves, not for their foreign parents. Filing is
required by law (31 U.S.C. 5315; 31 C.F.R. 128, Subpart C).
Weekly and monthly reports must be filed throughout the
calendar year by major foreign exchange market participants,
which are defined as market participants with more than $50
billion equivalent in foreign exchange contracts on the last
business day of any calendar quarter during the previous year
(end March, June, September, or December). Such contracts
include the amounts of foreign exchange spot contracts bought
and sold, foreign exchange forward contracts bought and sold,
foreign exchange futures bought and sold, and one half the
notional amount of foreign exchange options bought and sold.
Exemptions from filing the monthly report are given to banking institutions that file the Federal Financial Institution Examination Council (FFIEC) 035 report (“Monthly
Consolidated Foreign Currency Report”).

A quarterly report must be filed throughout the calendar
year by each foreign exchange market participant that had
more than $1 billion equivalent in foreign exchange contracts
on the last business day of any quarter the previous year (end
March, June, September, or December). Exemptions from
filing the quarterly report are given to major nonbank market
participants that file weekly and monthly reports, and banking
institutions that file FFIEC 035 reports.
This information is published in five sections corresponding to each of the major currencies covered by the reports.
Tables I-1 through V-1 present the foreign currency data
reported weekly by major market participants. Tables I-2
through V-2 present more detailed currency data of major
market participants, based on monthly Treasury and FFIEC
035 reports. Tables I-3 through V-3 present quarterly consolidated foreign currency data reported by large market participants and FFIEC reporters which do not file weekly reports.
Principal exchanged under cross currency interest rate
swaps is reported as part of purchases or sales of foreign
exchange. Such principal is also separately noted on monthly
and quarterly reports. The net options position, or the net
delta-equivalent value of an options position, is an estimate of
the relationship between an option’s value and an equivalent
currency hedge. The delta equivalent value is defined as the
product of the first partial derivative of an option valuation
formula (with respect to the price of the underlying currency)
multiplied by the notional principal of the contract.

EXCHANGE STABILIZATION FUND

103

INTRODUCTION: Exchange Stabilization Fund
To stabilize the exchange value of the dollar, the Exchange
Stabilization Fund (ESF) was established under the Gold Reserve Act of January 30, 1934 (31 U.S.C. 5302), which authorized establishment of a Treasury Department fund to be
operated under the exclusive control of the Secretary, with
approval of the President.
Subsequent amendment of the Gold Reserve Act modified
the original purpose somewhat to reflect termination of the
fixed exchange rate system.
Resources of the fund include dollar balances, partially
invested in U.S. Government securities, special drawing rights
(SDRs), and balances of foreign currencies. Principal sources
of income (+) or loss (-) for the fund are profits (+) or losses
(-) on SDRs and foreign exchange, as well as interest earned
on assets.

• Table ESF-1 presents the assets, liabilities, and capital
of the fund. The figures are in U.S. dollars or their equivalents
based on current exchange rates computed according to the
accrual method of accounting. The capital account represents
the original capital appropriated to the fund by Congress of $2
billion, minus a subsequent transfer of $1.8 billion to pay for
the initial U.S. quota subscription to the IMF. Gains and losses
are reflected in the cumulative net income (+) or loss (-)
account.
• Table ESF-2 shows the results of operations by quarter.
Figures are in U.S. dollars or their equivalents computed
according to the accrual method. “Profits (+) or losses (-) on
foreign exchange” includes realized profits or losses. “Adjustment for change in valuation of SDR holdings and allocations”
reflects net gain or loss on revaluation of SDR holdings and
allocations for the quarter.

Beginning July 1974, the International Monetary Fund adopted a technique for valuing the
special drawing rights (SDRs) based on a weighted average of exchange rates for the
currencies of selected member countries. The U.S. SDR holdings and allocations are valued
on this basis beginning July 1974.

Note.--Annual balance sheets for fiscal years 1934 through 1940 appeared in the 1940
“Annual Report of the Secretary of the Treasury” and those for succeeding years appeared in
subsequent reports through 1980. Quarterly balance sheets beginning with December 31,
1938, have been published in the “Treasury Bulletin.” Data from inception to September 30,
1978, may be found on the statements published in the January 1979 “Treasury Bulletin.”

CHART SLOFC-A.-Commitments and
Contingencies
This report contains totals for commitments of the Government that represent the value of goods and services
ordered and obligated but not yet
received. It also includes other commitments against appropriations, all pursuant
to section 1311 of the Supplemental
Appropriation Act of 1955 (31 U.S.C.
200). Contingencies represent conditional
commitments that may become liabilities
due to events beyond the control of the
Government. The amounts are agency projections stated in terms of maximum
theoretical risk exposure. The data for
commitments and contingencies come
from agency notes reports, which have
been submitted to the Financial Management Service.

* Decrease is due to the Department of Energy’s change in its reporting of Environmental compliance. For fiscal 1995, the entire Environmental compliance
is reported as a liability.

Note.--Financial Management Service (FMS) expects to compile 1996 contingencies data by May 31, 1997. A copy of the detailed schedules can be
obtained from the Financial Reports Branch (202) 874-9922. Amounts presented in Chart SLOFC-A were compiled from reports submitted by the agencies in accordance with vol. I, part 2, chapter 4000 of the "Treasury Financial Manual " (Transmittal Letter No. 565). The information furnished by some
reporting agencies was based on estimates. Amounts presented in Table SLOFC-1 were compiled from "Schedule 1-U.S. General Ledger Account Balances, 1996 Annual Report-Appendix" and Treasury internal documents.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Airport and Airway Trust Fund
The Airport and Airway Trust Fund was established on
the books of the Treasury in fiscal 1971, according to provisions of the Airport and Airway Revenue Act of 1970 [49
U.S.C. 1742 (a)]. The trust fund was re-established in the
Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C. 9502) as a result of the Tax
Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Public Law
97-248, dated September 3, 1982), effective September 1,
1982.
Amounts equivalent to the taxes received in the Treasury
on transportation of persons and property by air, gasoline and
jet fuel used in noncommercial aircraft, and an international
departure tax are appropriated from the general fund of the
Treasury to the trust fund. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-508, dated November 5,
1990) increased rates for the excise taxes transferred to the
fund.
These transfers are made based on estimates made by the
Secretary of the Treasury, subject to adjustments in later
transfers in the amount of actual tax receipts.
On January 1, 1996, authority to collect these taxes and to
transfer them from the general fund to the trust fund (26 U.S.C.
9502) expired. Public Law 104-188, the Small Business Job

Protection Act of 1996, reinstated this authority as of August
27, 1996. The taxes and transfer authority expired again on
January 1, 1997.
When the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 9602 (b) are met,
amounts available in the fund exceeding outlay requirements
are invested in public debt securities with the interest credited
to the fund. Additional sums from the general fund are also
credited as authorized and made available by law, if necessary,
to meet outlay requirements.
Amounts required for outlays to carry out the airport and
airway program are made available to the Federal Aviation
Administration, Department of Transportation.
Other charges to the trust fund are made by the Secretary
of the Treasury for transfers of certain refunds of taxes and
certain outfits under section 34 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986.
Annual reports to Congress, required by 26 U.S.C. 9602
(a), are submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury, after
consultation with the Secretary of Transportation. These reports are required to cover the financial condition and results
of operations of the fund during the past fiscal year and those
expected during the next 5 fiscal years.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Uranium Enrichment
Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund
The Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund was established on the books of the Treasury
in fiscal 1993, according to provisions of the Energy Policy Act
of 1992 [42 U.S.C. 2297 (g)]. Receipts represent (1) fees
collected from domestic public utilities based on their pro rata
share of purchases of separative work units from the Department of Energy and (2) appropriations toward the Government
contribution based on the balance of separative work unit
purchases.
Expenditures from the fund are for the purpose of (1)
decontamination and decommissioning of the three gaseous
diffusion plants, (2) remedial actions and related environmental
restoration costs at the gaseous diffusion plants, and (3) reimbursement to uranium/thorium producers for the costs of decontamination, decommissioning, reclamation, and remedial
action of uranium/thorium sites that are incident to sales to the
U.S. Government. Amounts available in the fund exceeding
current needs may be invested by the Secretary of the Treasury

in obligations of the United States (1) having maturities congruent with the needs of the fund, and (2) bearing interest at
rates determined appropriate, taking into consideration the
current average market yield on outstanding marketable obligations of the United States with remaining periods to maturity
comparable to these investments.
The Secretary of the Treasury is required by 42 U.S.C.
2297 (g) to provide an annual report to Congress, after consultation with the Secretary of Energy. This report must present the
financial condition and the results of operations of the fund
during the preceding fiscal year.
The Energy Policy Act of 1992 [42 U.S.C. 2297 (g)(1)]
authorizes appropriations to ensure annual deposits to the fund
of $480 million before adjustments for inflation. Between fiscal
1993 and 1996, Government contributions of $1,379.7 million
were authorized. However, only $680.9 million was appropriated. The shortfall of Government contributions from appropriations is approximately $698.8 million.

INTRODUCTION: Black Lung Disability Trust Fund
The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund was established on
the books of the Treasury in fiscal 1978 according to the Black
Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-227). The
Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1981 (Public Law 97119), re-established the fund in the IRC, 26 U.S.C. 9501.
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1985 (Public Law 99-272), enacted April 7, 1986, provided for
an increase in the coal tax effective April 1, 1986, through
December 31, 1995, and a 5-year forgiveness of interest retroactive to October 1, 1985. The 5-year moratorium on interest
payments ended on September 30, 1990. Payment of interest
on advances resumed in fiscal 1991. The Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-203), signed
December 22, 1987, extends the temporary increase in the coal
tax through December 31, 2013.
The Code designates the following receipts to be appropriated and transferred from the general fund of the Treasury
to the trust fund: excise taxes on mined coal, taxable expenditures of self-dealing by, and excess contributions to, private
black lung benefit trusts; reimbursements by responsible mine
operators; and related fines, penalties, and interest charges.
Estimates made by the Secretary of the Treasury determine monthly transfers of amounts for excise taxes to the trust

fund subject to adjustments in later transfers to actual tax
receipts.
After retirement of the current indebtedness, amounts
available in the fund exceeding current expenditure requirements will be invested by the Secretary of the Treasury in
interest-bearing public debt securities. Any interest earned
will be credited to the fund. Also credited, if necessary, will
be repayable advances from the general fund to meet outlay
requirements exceeding available revenues.
To carry out the program, amounts are made available to
the Department of Labor. Also charged to the fund are administrative expenses incurred by the Department of Health and
Human Services and the Department of the Treasury, repayments of advances from the general fund and interest on
advances.
The Code requires the Secretary of the Treasury to submit
an annual report to Congress after consultation with the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Health and Human Services (26 U.S.C. 9602(a). The report must present the financial
condition and results of operations of the fund during the past
fiscal year and the expected condition and operations of the
fund during the next 5 fiscal years.

INTRODUCTION: Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund
The Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund was established on
the books of the Treasury on April 1, 1987, according to the
Water Resources Development Act of 1986 (Public Law 99962, November 17, 1986) (26 U.S.C. 9505).
The Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund consists of such
amounts as may be appropriated provided by section 9505 (b),
transferred by the Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (SLSDC) according to section 13 (a) of the Act of
May 13, 1954, or credited as provided in section 9602 (b).
Amounts are appropriated equivalent to the user fees in the
Treasury under section 4461 (relating to harbor maintenance
tax).
Amounts in the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund are available as provided by appropriation acts for making expenditures
to carry out section 210 (a) of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986. The appropriations act for the Department
of Transportation for fiscal 1995 (Public Law 103-331, September 28, 1994), section 13, waived collection of charges or
tolls on the Saint Lawrence Seaway in accordance with section
13 (b) of the Act of May 13, 1954 (as in effect on April 1,
1987). Legislation was passed in the North American Free

Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Implementation Act of 1994
(Public Law 103-182, Sec. 683), which amends paragraph (3)
of section 9505 (c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to
authorize payment of up to $5 million annually to the Department of the Treasury, for all expenses of administration incurred by the Department of the Treasury, the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, and the Department of Commerce related
to the administration of subchapter A of chapter 36 (relating

INTRODUCTION: Hazardous Substance Superfund
The Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund was established on the books of the Treasury in fiscal 1981, in
accordance with provisions of the Hazardous Substance Response Revenue Act of 1980 (42 U.S.C. 9631 (a)). Effective
fiscal 1987, the trust fund was re-established as the Hazardous
Substance Superfund (Superfund) in accordance with provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980 (Public Law
96-510), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and
Re-authorization Act (SARA) of 1986 (Public Law 99-499,
dated October 17, 1986).
The Internal Revenue Service collects excise taxes on
petroleum and chemicals, and an environmental tax from all
corporations with modified alternative minimum taxable income in excess of $2 million. In addition, the Superfund is
authorized to be appropriated general revenues from the general fund not otherwise appropriated. Cost recoveries, and
other miscellaneous receipts (e.g. interest revenue) are deposited directly to the Superfund. Also appropriated to the Super-

fund, if required, are repayable advances from the general fund
to meet outlay requirements in excess of available revenues.
Amounts available in the Superfund, in excess of current
expenditure requirements, are invested by the Secretary of the
Treasury in interest-bearing Government securities (e.g.,
Treasury bills). All interest earned is credited directly to the
Superfund.
To carry out the Superfund program, amounts are appropriated from the Superfund to the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) for programmatic and administrative expenses, repayment of advances to the general fund, and interest
expense associated with outstanding advances from the general fund.
An annual report to Congress by the Secretary of Treasury
is required by section 9633 (b) (1) of CERCLA, as amended.
These reports present the financial condition of the Superfund
and the results of operation for the past fiscal year, and its
expected condition and operations during the next 5 years.

INTRODUCTION: Highway Trust Fund
The Highway Trust Fund was established on the books of
the Treasury in fiscal 1957, according to provisions of the
Highway Revenue Act of 1956. It has been amended and
extended by various highway and surface transportation acts
since 1959. The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency
Act of 1991 extended the Highway Trust Fund and its taxes
through September 30, 1999. It has also been modified by the
Deficit Reduction Act of 1984, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation
Act of 1993. Amounts equivalent to taxes on gasoline, diesel
fuel, special motor fuels, certain tires, vehicles, and truck use,
are designated by the Act to be appropriated and transferred
from the general fund of the Treasury to the trust fund. These
transfers are made monthly based on estimates by the Secretary of the Treasury, subject to adjustments in later transfers
to the amount of actual tax receipts. Amounts available in the
fund exceeding outlay requirements are invested in public debt
securities and interest is credited to the fund.
Within the fund is a mass transit account, funded by a
portion of the excise tax collections under sections 4041, 4081,
and 4091 of the Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C.). The funds

from this account are used for expenditures according to
section 21 (a) (2) of the Urban Mass Transportation Act of
1964 or the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act
of 1991. The remaining excise taxes collected are included in
a higher account within the trust fund, and expenditures from
this account are made according to the provisions of various
transportation Acts.
Amounts required for outlays to carry out the Federal
Highway program are made available to the Federal Highway
Administration, Department of Transportation. Other charges
to the trust fund are made by the Secretary of the Treasury for
transfer of certain taxes to the land and water conservation
fund and to the Aquatic Resources Trust Fund and refunds of
certain taxes.
Annual reports to Congress are required by 26 U.S.C.
9602 (a) Internal Revenue Code as amended, to be submitted
by the Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the
Secretary of Transportation. These reports cover the financial
condition and results of operations of the fund for the past
fiscal year and expected condition and operations during the
next 5 fiscal years.

INTRODUCTION: Inland Waterways Trust Fund
The Inland Waterways Trust Fund was established by the
Treasury in fiscal 1984, according to provisions of the Inland
Waterways Revenue Act of 1978 (Public Law 95-502) and
continued according to the Water Resources Development Act
of 1986 (26 U.S.C. 9506). Amounts determined by the Secretary of the Treasury to be section 4042 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (relating to tax on fuel used in commercial
transportation on Inland Waterways) shall be appropriated to
the trust fund.
The Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988
(Public Law 100-647, approved November 10, 1988) increased the tax each year, 1990 through 1995. These amounts
are transferred quarterly from the general fund based on estimates made by the Secretary, subject to adjustments in later
transfers to the amounts of actual tax receipts.
The Secretary of the Treasury invests in interest-bearing
obligations of the United States that portion of the trust fund,

in his judgment, not required to meet current withdrawals. The
interest on, and proceeds from the sale or redemption of, any
obligation held in the trust fund is credited to the trust fund.
The act provides that amounts in the trust fund shall be
available, by appropriations acts, for making construction and
rehabilitation expenditures for navigation on the inland and
intracoastal waterways of the United States described in 33
U.S.C. 1804. Expenditures must be otherwise authorized by
law.
Annual reports to Congress are required by 26 U.S.C.
9602 to be submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury. These
reports are required to cover the financial condition and the
results of operations of the fund during the past fiscal year and
its expected condition and operations during the next 5 fiscal
years.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund
The Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust
Fund was established in fiscal 1981 according to provisions of
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,
and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980 (Public Law 96-510), as
amended by the Superfund Amendments and Re-authorization
Act (SARA) of 1986 (Public Law 99-499, dated October 17,
1986) and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990
(Public Law 101-508, dated November 5, 1990).
The LUST Trust Fund is financed by taxes collected on
gasoline, diesel fuels, special motor fuels, aviation fuels, and
fuels used in commercial transportation on inland waterways.
Amounts available in the LUST Trust Fund, exceeding current

expenditure requirements, are invested by the Secretary of the
Treasury in interest-bearing Government securities (e.g.,
Treasury bills). All interest earned is credited directly to the
LUST Trust Fund.
To carry out the LUST program, amounts are appropriated for the LUST Trust Fund to the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) for programmatic and administrative expenses.
An annual report to Congress by the Secretary of the
Treasury is required by 26 U.S.C. 9602 (a). These reports
present the financial condition of the LUST Trust Fund and
results of operations for the past fiscal year, and its expected
condition and operations during the next 5 fiscal years.

INTRODUCTION: Nuclear Waste Fund
The Nuclear Waste Fund was established on the books of
the Treasury in fiscal 1983, according to provisions of the
Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 [42 U.S.C. 10222 (c)].
Receipts represent fees collected from public utilities based on
electricity generated by nuclear power reactors and spent
nuclear fuel. Expenditures from the fund are for purposes of
radioactive waste disposal activities.
Amounts available in the fund exceeding current needs
may be invested by the Secretary of the Treasury in obligations
of the United States (1) having maturities in tandem with the
needs of the waste fund, and (2) bearing interest at rates

determined appropriate, taking into consideration the current
average market yield on outstanding marketable obligations
of the United States with remaining periods to maturity comparable to the maturities of such investments, except that the
interest rate on such investments shall not exceed the average
interest rate applicable to existing borrowings.
An annual report to Congress by the Secretary of the
Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of Energy, is
required by 42 U.S.C. 10222 (e) (1). This report must present
the financial condition and the results of operations of the

INTRODUCTION: Reforestation Trust Fund
The Reforestation Trust Fund was established on the
books of the Treasury in fiscal 1981 to continue through
September 30, 1985, according to provisions of Title III--Reforestation, of the Recreational Boating Safety and Facilities
Improvement Act of 1980 [16 U.S.C. 1606a (a)].
The act provides that the Secretary of the Treasury shall
transfer to the trust fund tariffs, limited to not more than $30
million for any fiscal year, received in the Treasury from
October 1, 1979, through September 30, 1985, on (1) rough
and primary wood products and wood waste; (2) lumber,
flooring, and moldings; and (3) wood veneers, plywood, and
other wood-veneer assemblies, and building boards. Public
Law 99-190 extended the receipts for the trust fund. Amounts
available in the reforestation trust fund exceeding current
withdrawals are invested in interest-bearing obligations of the

United States or in obligations guaranteed as to both principal
and interest by the United States. The interest on, and the
proceeds from the sale or redemption of, any obligations are
credited to the trust fund.
The Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to obligate
available sums in the trust fund (including any amounts not
obligated in previous years) for (1) reforestation and timber
stand improvement and (2) administrative costs of the Government for these activities.
Annual reports are required by 16 U.S.C. 1606 a (c) (1)
to be submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation with the Secretary of Agriculture, on the financial condition and the results of the operations of the trust fund during
the past fiscal year and on its expected condition and operations during the next fiscal year.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Aquatic Resources Trust Fund
Aquatic Resources Trust Fund was established on the
books of the Treasury pursuant to the Deficit Reduction Act of
1984 (Public Law 98-369, approved July 18, 1984). The fund
consists of two accounts: the Sport Fish Restoration Account
and Boat Safety Account.
Motorboat fuel taxes are transferred, in amounts up to $70
million per fiscal year, from the Highway Trust Fund to the
Boat Safety Account. Authority for such transfers expires on
October 1, 1997.
Amounts equivalent to the excise taxes received on sport
fishing equipment and import duties on fishing tackle, yachts,
and pleasure craft are appropriated into the Sport Fish Restoration Account. Motorboat fuel taxes not transferred to the Boat
Safety Account or to the Land and Water Conservation Fund
are transferred from the Highway Trust Fund to the Sport Fish
Restoration Account. Transfers of motorboat fuel taxes from
the Highway Trust Fund to the Land and Water Conservation
Fund are limited to $1 million per fiscal year. In addition,
pursuant to the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990
(Public Law 101-508), small engine gasoline taxes are transferred to the Sport Fish Restoration Account.

Amounts in the Sport Fish Restoration Account are used,
as provided by appropriation acts, for the purposes of carrying
out “An Act to provide that the United States shall aid the States
in fish restoration and management projects, and for other
purposes,” approved August 9, 1950 (as in effect on October
1, 1988) and the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and
Restoration Act, as in effect on November 29, 1990.
Amounts in the Boat Safety Account, as provided by
appropriations acts are available to carry out the purposes of
Public Law 92-75 related to recreational boating safety assistance.
When the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 9602 (b) are met,
amounts available in the two accounts exceeding outlay requirements are invested in public debt securities with the
interest credited to the respective accounts.
Annual reports to Congress, required by 26 U.S.C. 9602
(a), are submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury. These
reports are required to cover the financial condition and results
of operations of the fund during the past fiscal year and those
expected during the next 5 fiscal years.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund
The Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund was established on the
books of the Treasury by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation
Act 1986 (Public Law 99-509). It was made effective on
January 1, 1990, by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1989 (Public Law 101-239), and amended by the Oil Pollution
Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-380).
Amounts equivalent to the taxes received from the environmental tax on petroleum, but only to the extent of the Oil
Spill Liability Trust Fund rate, are appropriated to the fund. The
tax is not applied during any calendar quarter if the Secretary
of the Treasury estimates that, as of the close of the preceding
calendar quarter, the unobligated balance in the fund exceeds
$1 billion.
Certain amounts were transferred from other funds and
were appropriated to the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund as

provided by U.S.C. 26 9509 (b). certain paid penalties and
amounts recovered for damages are also appropriated to the
fund.
Amounts in the fund are available for oil spill cleanup costs
and certain other related purposes as provided by appropriations acts or section 6002 (b) of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990.
When the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 9602 (b) are met,
amounts available in the fund exceeding outlay requirements
are invested in public debt securities. Interest is credited to the
fund.
Annual reports to Congress, required by 26 U.S.C. (a), are
submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury. These reports are
required to cover the financial condition and results of operations of the fund during the past fiscal year and those expected
during the next 5 fiscal years.

The Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund (VICTF)
was created on the books of the Treasury by the Revenue Act
of 1987 (Public Law 100-203, approved December 22, 1987).

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: National Recreational Trails Trust Fund
Provisions relating to a National Recreational Trails Trust
Fund were enacted as part of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (Public Law 102-240, approved
December 18, 1991). The Act provides that amounts equivalent to the taxes imposed on fuel used in vehicles on recreational trails or back country terrain and in camp stoves and
other non-engine uses in outdoor recreational equipment shall
be paid from the Highway Trust Fund to the National Recreational Trails Trust Fund [26 U.S.C. 9503 (c) (6)]. Transfers to
the fund are limited to amounts obligated under section 1302
of the Act. Obligated amounts cannot exceed $30 million per
fiscal year over the 1992-97 period. Obligations cannot be

Treasury because funds have yet to be appropriated to the fund.

made until amounts are appropriated; there have not yet been
appropriations to the fund.
When the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 9602 (b) are met,
amounts available in the fund exceeding outlay requirements
are invested in public debt securities with the interest credited
to the fund.
Annual reports to Congress, required by 26 U.S.C. 9602
(a), are submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury. These
reports are required to cover the financial condition and results
of operations of the fund during the past fiscal year and those
expected during the next 5 fiscal years.

Glossary
With References to Applicable Sections and Tables
Source: Financial Management Service
Accrued discount (SBN-1, -2, -3)—Interest that accumulates
on savings bonds from the date of purchase until the date of
redemption or final maturity, whichever comes first. Series A,
B, C, D, E, EE, F, and J are discount or accrual type bonds—
meaning principal and interest are paid when bonds are redeemed. Series G, H, HH, and K are current-income bonds,
and the semiannual interest paid to their holders is not included
in accrued discount.
Amounts outstanding and in circulation (USCC)—Includes all issues by the Bureau of the Mint purposely intended
as a medium of exchange. Coins sold by the Bureau of the Mint
at premium prices are excluded; however, uncirculated coin
sets sold at face value plus handling charge are included.
Average discount rate (PDO-2, -3)—In Treasury bill auctions, purchasers tender competitive bids on a discount rate
basis. The average discount rate is the weighted, or adjusted,
average of all bids accepted in the auction.
Budget authority (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Congress passes laws giving budget authority to Government
entities, which gives the agencies the power to spend Federal
funds. Congress can stipulate various criteria for the spending
of these funds. For example, Congress can stipulate that a
given agency must spend within a specific year, number of
years, or any time in the future.
The basic forms of budget authority are appropriations,
authority to borrow, contract authority, and authority to obligate and expend offsetting receipts and collections. The period
of time during which Congress makes funds available may be
specified as 1-year, multiple-year, or no-year. The available
amount may be classified as either definite or indefinite; a
specific amount or an unspecified amount can be made available. Authority may also be classified as current or permanent.
Permanent authority requires no current action by Congress.
Budget deficit—The total, cumulative amount by which
budget outlays (spending) exceed budget receipts (income).
Cash management bills (PDO-2)—Marketable Treasury
bills of irregular maturity lengths, sold periodically to fund
short-term cash needs of Treasury. Their sale, having higher
minimum and multiple purchase requirements than those of
other issues, is generally restricted to competitive bidders.
Competitive tenders (“Treasury Financing Operations”)—A bid to purchase a stated amount of one issue of
Treasury securities at a specified yield or discount. The bid is
accepted if it is within the range accepted in the auction. (See
Noncompetitive tenders.)
Coupon issue—The issue of bonds or notes (public debt).
Currency no longer issued (USCC)—Old and new series
gold and silver certificates, Federal Reserve notes, national
bank notes, and 1890 Series Treasury notes.
Current income bonds (“U.S. Savings Bonds and Notes”)—
Bonds paying semiannual interest to holders. Interest is not
included in accrued discount.
Debt outstanding subject to limitation (FD-6)—The debt
incurred by the Treasury subject to the statutory limit set by

Congress. Until World War I, a specific amount of debt was
authorized to each separate security issue. Beginning with the
Second Liberty Loan Act of 1917, the nature of the limitation
was modified until, in 1941, it developed into an overall limit
on the outstanding Federal debt. As of December 1996, the
debt limit was $5,500,000 million; the limit may change from
year to year.
The debt subject to limitation includes most of Treasury’s
public debt except securities issued to the Federal Financing
Bank, upon which there is a limitation of $15 billion, and
certain categories of older debt (totaling approximately $595
million as of February 1991).
Discount—The interest deducted in advance when purchasing
notes or bonds. (See Accrued discount.)
Discount rate (PDO-2)—The difference between par value
and the actual purchase price paid, annualized over a 360-day
year. Because this rate is less than the actual yield (couponequivalent rate), the yield should be used in any comparison
with coupon issue securities.
Dollar coins (USCC)—Include standard silver and nonsilver
coins.
Domestic series (FD-2)—Nonmarketable, interest and noninterest-bearing securities issued periodically by Treasury to
the Resolution Funding Corporation (RFC) for investment of
funds authorized under section 21B of the Federal Home Loan
Bank Act (12 U.S.C. 1441b).
Federal intrafund transactions (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Intrabudgetary transactions in which payments and
receipts both occur within the same Federal fund group (Federal funds or trust funds).
Federal Reserve notes (USCC)—Issues by the U.S. Government to the public through the Federal Reserve banks and their
member banks. They represent money owed by the Government to the public. Currently, the item “Federal Reserve
notes—amounts outstanding” consists of new series issues.
The Federal Reserve note is the only class of currency currently issued.
Foreign (“Foreign Currency Positions,” IFS-2, -3)—Locations other than those included under the definition of the
United States. (See United States.)
Foreigner (“Capital Movements,” IFS-2)—All institutions
and individuals living outside the United States, including U.S.
citizens living abroad, and branches, subsidiaries, and other
affiliates abroad of U.S. banks and business concerns; central
governments, central banks, and other official institutions of
countries other than the United States, and international and
regional organizations, wherever located. Also, refers to persons in the United States to the extent that they are known by
reporting institutions to be acting for foreigners.
Foreign official institutions (“Capital Movements”)—Includes central governments of foreign countries, including all
departments and agencies of national governments; central
banks, exchange authorities, and all fiscal agents of foreign
national governments that undertake activities similar to those

133

Glossary

and consular establishments of foreign national governments;
and any international or regional organization, including subordinate and affiliate agencies, created by treaty or convention
between sovereign states.
Foreign public borrower (“Capital Movements”)—Includes foreign official institutions, as defined above, the corporations and agencies of foreign central governments,
including development banks and institutions, and other agencies that are majority-owned by the central government or its
departments; and state provincial and local governments of
foreign countries and their departments and agencies.
Foreign-targeted issue (PDO-1, -3)—Foreign-targeted issues were notes sold between October 1984 and February 1986
to foreign institutions, foreign branches of U.S. institutions,
foreign central banks or monetary authorities, or to international organizations in which the United States held membership. Sold as companion issues, they could be converted to
domestic (normal) Treasury notes with the same maturity and
interest rates. Interest was paid annually.
Fractional coins (USCC)—Coins minted in denominations
of 50, 25, and 10 cents, and minor coins (5 cents and 1 cent).
Government account series (FD-2)—Certain trust fund statutes require the Secretary of the Treasury to apply monies held
by these funds toward the issuance of nonmarketable special
securities. These securities are sold directly by Treasury to a
specific Government agency, trust fund, or account. Their rate
is based on an average of market yields on outstanding Treasury obligations, and they may be redeemed at the option of the
holder. Roughly 80 percent of these are issued to five holders:
the Federal Old-age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund; the
civil service retirement and disability fund; the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund; the military retirement fund; and the
Unemployment Trust Fund.
Interfund transactions (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—
Transactions in which payments are made from one fund group
(either Federal funds or trust funds) to a receipt account in
another group.
International Monetary Fund (“Exchange Stabilization
Fund,” IFS-1)—(IMF) Established by the United Nations, the
IMF promotes international trade, stability of exchange, and
monetary cooperation. Members are allowed to draw from the
fund.
Intrabudgetary transactions (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—These occur when payment and receipt both occur
within the budget, or when payment is made from off-budget
Federal entities whose budget authority and outlays are excluded from the budget totals.
Matured non-interest-bearing debt (SBN-1, -2, -3)—The
value of outstanding savings bonds and notes that have reached
final maturity and no longer earn interest. Includes all Series
A-D, F, G, J, and K bonds. Series E bonds (issued between
May 1941 and November 1965), Series EE (issued since
January 1980), Series H (issued from June 1952 through
December 1979), and savings notes issued between May 1967
and October 1970 have a final maturity of 30 years. Series HH
bonds (issued since January 1980) mature after 20 years.

Noncompetitive tenders (“Treasury Financing Operations”)—Offers by an investor to purchase Treasury securities
at the price equivalent to the weighted average discount rate or
yield of accepted competitive tenders in a Treasury auction.
Noncompetitive tenders are always accepted in full.
Off-budget Federal entities (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Federally owned and controlled entities whose transactions are excluded from the budget totals under provisions
of law. Their receipts, outlays, and surplus or deficit are not
included in budget receipts, outlays, or deficits. Their budget
authority is not included in totals of the budget.
Outlays (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Payments on obligations in the form of cash, checks, the issuance of bonds or
notes, or the maturing of interest coupons.
Own foreign offices (“Capital Movements”)—Refers to
U.S. reporting institutions’ parent organizations, branches
and/or majority-owned subsidiaries located outside the United
States.
Par value—The face value of bonds or notes, including interest.
Quarterly financing (“Treasury Financing Operations”)—
Treasury has historically offered packages of several “coupon”
security issues on the 15th of February, May, August, and
November, or on the next working day. These issues currently
consist of a 3-year note, a 10-year note, and a 30-year bond.
Treasury sometimes offers additional amounts of outstanding
long-term notes or bonds, rather than selling new security
issues. (See Reopening.)
Receipts (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Funds collected
from selling land, capital, or services, as well as collections
from the public (budget receipts), such as taxes, fines, duties,
and fees.
Reopening (PDO-3, -4)—The offer for sale of additional
amounts of outstanding issues, rather than an entirely new
issue. A reopened issue will always have the same maturity
date, CUSIP-number, and interest rate as the original issue.
Special drawing rights (“Exchange Stabilization Fund,”
IFS-1)—International assets created by IMF that serve to
increase international liquidity and provide additional international reserves. SDRs may be purchased and sold among
eligible holders through IMF. (See IMF.)
SDR allocations are the counterpart to SDRs issued by IMF
based on members’ quotas in IMF. Although shown in exchange stabilization fund (ESF) statements as liabilities, they
must be redeemed by ESF only in the event of liquidation of,
or U.S. withdrawal from, the SDR department of IMF or
cancellation of SDRs.
SDR certificates are issued to the Federal Reserve System
against SDRs when SDRs are legalized as money. Proceeds of
monetization are deposited into an ESF account at the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York.
Spot (“Foreign Currency Positions”)—Due for receipt or
delivery within 2 workdays.
State and local government series (FD-2)—(SLUGs) Special nonmarketable certificates, notes, and bonds offered to
State and local governments as a means to invest proceeds from
their own tax-exempt financing. Interest rates and maturities

134

Glossary
comply with IRS arbitrage provisions. SLUGs are offered in
both time deposit and demand deposit forms. Time deposit
certificates have maturities of up to 1 year. Notes mature in 1
to 10 years and bonds mature in more than 10 years. Demand
deposit securities are 1-day certificates rolled over with a rate
adjustment daily.
Statutory debt limit (FD-6)—By Act of Congress there is a
limit, either temporary or permanent, on the amount of public
debt that may be outstanding. When this limit is reached,
Treasury may not sell new debt issues until Congress increases
or extends the limit. For a detailed listing of changes in the
limit since 1941, see the Budget of the United States Government. (See debt outstanding subject to limitation.)
STRIPS (PDO-1, -3)—Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal Securities. Long-term notes and bonds may
be divided into principal and interest-paying components,
which may be transferred and sold in amounts as small as

$1,000. STRIPS are sold at auction at a minimum par amount,
varying for each issue. The amount is an arithmetic function
of the issue’s interest rate.
Treasury bills—The shortest term Federal security (maturity
dates normally varying from 3 to 12 months), they are sold at
a discount.
Trust fund transaction (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—An
intra-budgetary transaction in which both payments and receipts occur within the same trust fund group.
United States—Includes the 50 States, District of Columbia,
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Midway
Island, Virgin Islands, Wake Island, and all other territories and
