Profile of the Economy
[Source: Office of Macroeconomic Analysis]

Real gross domestic product
The economy continued to expand at a solid pace in the
final quarter of 2006, as the continued weakness in
residential investment was more than offset by significant
strength in real consumer spending and a reduction in the net
export deficit in the fourth quarter.
January’s advance estimate of real gross domestic
product (GDP) reported annualized growth accelerated to
3.5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006, following a 2.0
percent gain in the third quarter. This brought real GDP
growth to 3.4 percent over the four quarters of 2006. Since
the second quarter of 2003, quarterly growth has averaged
3.6 percent.
Consumer spending posted a robust 4.4 percent
annualized increase, up sharply from the 2.8 percent pace in
the third quarter. Declining spending on motor vehicles and
parts was partially offset by a pickup in spending on
computers. Spending in the remaining nondurable goods and
in the services sectors contributed a combined 2.6
percentage points to GDP growth. For the four quarters of
2006 consumer spending was up 3.2 percent.
Investment in business equipment and software edged
down by 1.8 percent in the fourth quarter after a 7.7 percent
gain in the third. Average growth for all four quarters of
2006 for this volatile series was 5.0 percent. A 19.2 percent
annualized rate of decline in residential investment spending
extended a four quarter string of negative readings in
residential building, and reduced GDP growth by 1.2
percentage point in the fourth quarter. Nonresidential
investment, which had grown 10.0 percent in the third
quarter, also recorded its first decline in 14 quarters, slipping
0.4 percent. Business inventory investment subtracted 0.7
percentage point to fourth quarter GDP growth, as inventory
building slowed during the quarter.

The net export deficit on trade in goods and services
narrowed $47.4 billion in real terms in the fourth quarter,
and added 1.6 percentage points to GDP growth. Real
exports of goods and services showed continued strength, up
an annualized 10.0 percent after a 6.8 percent gain in the
third quarter. Meanwhile, real imports of goods and services
were down 3.2 percent in the fourth quarter, the first decline
in 15 quarters. For all of 2006 real exports of goods and
services were up 9.2 percent.
Growth in real public sector spending rose in the fourth
quarter, up an annualized 3.7 percent. This increase was
largely the result of acceleration in Federal defense
expenditures which increased 11.9 percent after declining in
the middle two quarters of 2006. Federal outlays added 0.3
percentage point to GDP growth, while state and local
outlays added 0.4 percentage point.

food and energy) rose 2.6 percent in the 12 months through
December 2006, somewhat faster than the 2.2 percent
increase of a year earlier, core inflation eased during the
latter half of 2006. For the 3 months ending in September
2006, core inflation rose 2.7 percent, and then increased by
1.4 percent in the 3 months ending in December 2006.
Declines in energy prices also contributed to a slower
rise in the producer price index for finished goods, which
was up 1.1 percent in the 12 months through December
2006, compared with 5.4 percent in the previous 12 month
period. A decline in prices for finished energy goods at the
producer price level contributed significantly to slowing
inflation. These prices fell 2 percent in the 12 months
through December 2006 compared with a nearly 24 percent
increase of a year earlier. The core index (finished goods
less food and energy) accelerated to 2.0 percent in the 12
months through December 2006, compared with an increase
of only 1.4 percent in the previous 12 months.

Inflation
Fluctuations in energy prices have been the key factor
behind changes in the overall inflation rate over the past
several months and were instrumental in the decline in
overall prices in the fourth quarter of 2006. In the 12 months
through December 2006, the consumer price index (CPI)
increased 2.5 percent, notably lower than the 3.4 percent rate
for the previous 12 months. Inflation slowed as the year
progressed; measured on a fourth-quarter over fourth-quarter
basis, the CPI rose 1.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006,
after five consecutive quarterly increases of between 3.3
percent and 4.0 percent. Lower energy prices accounted for
the decline; in the 12 months through December 2006,
energy prices rose by about 2.9 percent, compared with an
increase of 17.1 percent in the previous 12 months. On a
fourth-quarter over fourth-quarter basis, energy prices
declined by 4.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Employment and unemployment
The labor market finished 2006 on a strong note and data
suggest employment remained firm at the start of 2007. The
unemployment rate is low and workers have achieved solid
gains in real hourly earnings.
Nonfarm payroll employment increased a moderate
111,000 in January, but data revisions boosted the job count
in previous months. Average job growth in December and
January was about 150,000. Employment increased by more
than 2.2 million in 2006, an average of 187,000 per month.
Since employment hit its low point in August 2003, the
economy has generated more than 7.4 million jobs.
Following its standard practice, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics incorporated its annual benchmark revision to
payroll employment data in early February. The revision,
which reflects more complete estimates of payrolls using
unemployment insurance tax records, increased the
employment level for March 2006 by about 750,000.
The service sector has been the source of most job gains.
Professional and business services and leisure and
hospitality each posted employment increases of about
25,000 in January, but that was down from gains of more
than 50,000 per month in the fourth quarter. Payrolls in
education and health services rose 31,000 in January, also
down from its fourth quarter average. Employment in these
three sectors rose by more than 1.4 million in 2006, or nearly
two-thirds of the total net jobs created during the year. Retail

5

employment rose a slight 4,000 in January after shedding
more than 40,000 jobs in 2006.
Goods-producing industries have been affected by the
housing slowdown and the downshift in auto production.
Construction employment increased a solid 22,000 in
January after losing a net 32,000 jobs in the fourth quarter.
Mild weather across much of the country may have helped
to boost January’s results. Employment in residential
specialty trade contractors has declined by more than
100,000 since its recent peak last February. That is directly
related to the housing slowdown. However, this effect has
been partly offset by gains in nonresidential specialty trade
contractor employment. Manufacturing employment fell by
16,000 in January. The factory sector lost 84,000 jobs in
2006.
The unemployment rate edged up from 4.5 percent to 4.6
percent in January, but remains close to a 5-1/2 year low of
4.4 percent. The labor force participation rate (the share of
the non-institutionalized population over 15 years old in the
labor force) ended 2006 at a 3-1/2 year low of 66.4 percent,
but edged back down to 66.3 percent in January.
The average workweek edged down from 33.9 hours to
33.8 hours in January causing aggregate production worker
hours to decline 0.1 percent. Nominal average hourly
earnings increased 0.2 percent in January and were up 4.0
percent from a year earlier. Adjusting for inflation, real
earnings were up 1.7 percent from a year earlier in
December (latest data available). That marked the largest
annual real wage increase since 2001.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Real disposable personal income and
consumer spending
Personal income and outlays experienced steady growth
in the fourth quarter of 2006 relative to the first three
quarters of the year. Nominal personal income grew
4.9 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter of 2006,
following growth of 5.9 percent in the third quarter. From
2005 to 2006, personal income grew 6.4 percent at an annual
rate. Wages and salaries, accounting for more than 50
percent of personal income, rose at a 6.1 percent annual rate
in the fourth quarter following a gain of 5.0 percent in the
third quarter, and increased at a 6.6 percent annual rate in
2006.
Growth of personal income receipts on assets slowed to
3.2 percent at an annual rate after jumping 9.0 percent
during the third quarter. Growth of personal interest income
declined at a 2.9 percent annual pace after rising 6.7 percent
in the third quarter. Rental income in the fourth quarter
dropped 5.6 percent at an annual rate after climbing
44.6 percent in the third quarter. The continued cooling of
the housing market has caused rental activity to increase.
Real disposable (after-tax) income rose 5.4 percent at an
annual rate in the fourth quarter following a 4.1 percent gain
in the third quarter and a 1.5 percent decline in the second
quarter. For 2006 as a whole, real disposable personal
income rose 2.7 percent at an annual rate. Real personal
consumption expenditures increased at a 4.4 percent annual
pace, 1.6 percent faster than the third quarter growth rate.
The personal savings rate crept up 0.2 percent to -1.0 percent
in the fourth quarter from -1.2 percent in the third quarter.
Consumer spending has been larger than personal disposable
income since the second quarter of 2005.

Industrial production and capacity
utilization
Industrial production from factories, mines, and utilities
decreased 0.5 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter
of 2006, after rising at a 4.0 percent pace in the third quarter.
Over the 12 months ending in December, output increased
2.4 percent. On an annual basis, industrial production grew
4.0 percent in 2006, the fastest rate since 2000. However,
monthly indicators for the fourth quarter of 2006 and into
early 2007 suggest a slowing in industrial output.
Manufacturing production, which accounts for about 81
percent of all industrial output, fell 1.4 percent at an annual
rate in the fourth quarter (after rising 4.4 percent in the third
quarter), the first quarterly decline since the third quarter of
2003. Output of high-technology goods (computers,
communications equipment, and semiconductors) grew by
31.8 percent at an annual rate, accelerating from the third
quarter’s 27.3 percent pace. Production of motor vehicles
and parts fell 3.6 percent at an annual rate in the fourth
quarter, after falling 9.8 percent in the third quarter. In the
12 months through December, output of motor vehicles and
parts was up 0.9 percent. Apart from automobiles,
manufacturing output declined at a 1.2 percent annual rate in

March 2007

the fourth quarter of 2006. The fourth quarter decline in nonautomobile manufacturing output was partly due to the
slowdown in residential building activity; production of
wood products declined nearly 27 percent and primary
metals production fell about 22 percent in the fourth quarter.
Production at utilities, accounting for roughly 9 percent
of total industrial output, rose 4.5 percent at an annual rate in
the fourth quarter (similar to the 4.6 percent rise in the third
quarter.) Weather is usually a factor in this sector, and
unseasonable weather in quarters often causes sharp swings
in output from 1 month or quarter to the next. For example,
unseasonably warm weather in December caused utilities
output to dip by 2.7 percent. Output at mines (the remaining
10 percent of industrial output) rose 1.6 percent in the fourth
quarter, following a 0.6 percent gain in the third quarter.
Restoration of oil and gas extraction operations in the Gulf
regions helped lead to a 12-month increase in mining output
of 4.7 percent.
The capacity utilization rate for the industrial sector
edged down to 81.7 percent in the fourth quarter from 82.3
percent in the third quarter. Capacity utilization has trended
higher over the past 2 years or so; in the fourth quarter it was
still above its long-term average of 81.0. Capacity utilization
ranged between 82 and 85 percent from 1994 through 1999.
In manufacturing, capacity utilization was 80.2 percent in
the fourth quarter, down from 80.9 percent in the third
quarter, but it remains above its long-term average of 79.8
percent. Utilization in the high-technology industries rose
almost 2 percentage points to 80.8 percent in the fourth
quarter from 78.7 percent in the third quarter, and remained
above its long-term average of 78.0 percent.

Nonfarm productivity and unit labor costs
Productivity growth picked up at the end of 2006,
according to preliminary data. Productivity in the nonfarm
business sector grew at an annual rate of 3.0 percent in the
fourth quarter following a slight decline in the third quarter.
Growth in output (4.2 percent) outpaced the rise in hours
worked (1.2 percent) in the final quarter of the year. For
2006 as a whole, productivity increased 2.1 percent. That is
somewhat slower than the 2.5 percent increase registered
over the four quarters of 2005. Still, the longer-term trend of
productivity growth appears strong. Since the business cycle
peak in the first quarter of 2001, productivity has grown at
an annual rate of 3.0 percent, up from 2.5 percent during the
preceding 5-year period.
Hourly compensation costs in the nonfarm business
sector rose 4.8 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter
and were up by a similar amount for the year as a whole. In
real terms, compensation increased 3.0 percent over the four
quarters of 2006, the strongest four-quarter gain in 3 years.
An alternative measure from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, the employment cost index, shows that nominal
compensation rose 3.3 percent during the four quarters of
2006. Unlike the productivity series, the employment cost
index shows data on the two main components of
compensation–wages and salaries and benefits. Wages and

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

salaries for all civilian workers were up 3.2 percent from a
year earlier in the fourth quarter. Benefits were up 3.6
percent. Although the growth in benefit costs has slowed
over the past 2 years, benefits continue to account for a
disproportionate share of overall compensation gains.
Unit labor costs, which represent the interaction of
productivity and compensation, increased 1.7 percent at an
annual rate in the fourth quarter, down from the third
quarter’s 3.2 percent rise. These costs were up 2.8 percent
over the latest four quarters. Although the growth of unit
labor costs slowed at the end of 2006, increases remain firm
compared to recent years. Rising unit labor costs can compel
some companies to raise prices and could contribute to
higher inflation.
Productivity in the manufacturing sector rose 2.2 percent
at an annual rate in the fourth quarter and was up 3.9 percent
over the most recent four quarters. Over the past 10 years,
factory productivity has grown at an average annual rate of
4.5 percent. Hourly compensation costs in manufacturing
were up 7.3 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter
and have advanced 4.3 percent over the most recent four
quarters. Factory unit labor costs increased 5.0 percent at an
annual rate in the fourth quarter but were up just 0.3 percent
over the most recent four quarters.

International transactions
The U.S. current account deficit continued to grow in the
third quarter of 2006, widening by roughly $34 billion to
$902 billion at an annual rate. The third-quarter deficit was
equivalent to 6.8 percent of GDP, up from 6.6 percent in the
second quarter. The deterioration in the latest quarter had
been foreshadowed by growth in the merchandise trade
deficit, which widened by $32 billion to $874 billion at an
annual rate. The balance on income (the difference between
income receipts on U.S. assets abroad and income payments
on foreign assets in the United States) grew a bit more
negative in the third quarter, also contributing to the increase
in the current account deficit. The income balance has
historically been in surplus but shifted to a deficit in the
fourth quarter of 2005, in part because foreigners have been
earning higher returns on their investments in the United
States than U.S. residents have earned on their foreign
investments.
The current account is matched by offsetting transactions
in the capital and financial accounts, with any differences in
the recorded flows listed as a statistical discrepancy. Net
capital account transactions, which consist mainly of debt
forgiveness and wealth transfers associated with
immigration, fell to $2.2 billion in the third quarter from

7

$4.0 billion in the second quarter. The third-quarter tally was
in line with the average over the previous 5 calendar years.
Financial flows into and out of the United States
accelerated in the third quarter and, on net, amounted to
nearly $706 billion at an annual rate, up from $613 billion in
the second quarter. Net foreign purchases of assets in the
United States strengthened by $142 billion to $1.6 trillion at
an annual rate, in large part because of a jump in U.S.
liabilities to unaffiliated foreigners reported by nonbank
concerns. Foreign purchases of U.S. securities other than
Treasuries also rose as transactions in U.S. stocks swung
back to net purchases from net sales in the second quarter.
However, foreign acquisition of U.S. corporate and
Federally-sponsored agency bonds slowed, and foreign
direct investment eased. On the opposite side of the ledger,
net outlays by U.S. residents for assets abroad rose by just
$50 billion in the third quarter to $895 billion at an annual
rate.

Exchange rate of the dollar
The value of the U.S. dollar compared to the currencies
of America’s key trading partners continued to decline in the
fourth quarter of 2006, extending a trend that began in early
2002. The nominal exchange value of the dollar (relative to a
broad index covering the currencies of 26 important U.S.
trading partners) depreciated nearly 1.5 percent during the
fourth quarter of 2006. In December, the dollar settled at its
lowest nominal level in about 9 years. Since peaking in
February 2002, the U.S. currency as measured by this broad
index has depreciated by close to 18 percent.
The aggregate decline since 2002 mainly reflected dollar
weakness against the seven currencies of the United States’
major trading partners, including the euro area countries,
Japan, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, Sweden, and
Switzerland. Between February 2002 and December 2006,
the exchange rate of the dollar compared to an index of these
currencies fell by nearly 28 percent. Over this period, the
dollar was down by 34 percent against the euro and by 12
percent against the yen.
The dollar generally showed much less movement with
respect to the currencies of the other 19 important trading
partners (including Mexico, China, and India). It
strengthened somewhat from February 2002 through the first
half of 2004, but since then, the dollar has depreciated
against the index of other important trading partners by
about 8 percent. In December 2006, the dollar was 3.4
percent lower against this basket of currencies than at the
February 2002 peak.

Interest rates
At its most recent meeting in January 2007, the Federal
Open Market Committee (FOMC)–the Federal Reserve’s
policy-making arm–maintained the Federal funds target
interest rate at 5.25 percent, where it has stood since late
June 2006. The Federal Reserve has paused in the most
recent five meetings, following 17 straight hikes of 25 basis
points each in the current cycle of monetary tightening
which began in late June 2004. Before that, the FOMC had
held the Federal funds target (the rate that banks and other
financial institutions charge each other for overnight loans)
constant at 1 percent for one year. The funds target in
January 2007 was at its highest level since March 2001.
In the Treasury market, the 3-month Treasury bill rate
stood at 5 percent in early February 2007, and had risen by
about 270 basis points over the past 2 years. The 10-year
yield had moved little as short rates rose during 2004 and
2005, but then moved significantly higher starting in early
2006. At about 5.2 percent as of early June 2006, the rate
was about 145 basis points above its level in early 2004.
Relative to that recent peak, the rate has trended lower, and
has been consistently below 5 percent for the past 6 months.

Since early December, the rate has trended upward by
roughly 40 basis points, to 4.8 percent as of early February.
Mortgage interest rates have generally followed
movements of the 10-year Treasury rate, trending up since
mid-2005, and moving decisively higher through the first
half of 2006. In early July 2006, the rate for a thirty-year
fixed rate mortgage reached 6.8 percent, its highest level in
over 4 years. During the latter half of 2006, the mortgage
rate generally declined in tandem with the 10-year Treasury
rate to about 6.1 percent in December, but has since
increased, and stood at 6.3 percent as of early February.
Corporate bond yields have also generally followed
movements in long-term Treasury yields. Moody’s seasoned
Baa yield moved higher earlier last year, reaching a recent
peak of 6.9 percent in late June 2006, but during the latter
half of 2006 and early 2007, it retreated, trading between 6.1
percent and 6.5 percent. In early February, the yield was 6.4
percent. The spread between the Baa yield and the 10-year
Treasury yield, a measure of investor risk appetite, has
remained essentially unchanged through much of 2005 and
2006. This spread had widened to as much as 4.0 percentage
points in October 2002, but over the past 7 months, has
remained quite stable at about 1.6 percentage points.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Housing
Housing activity remained sluggish in the fourth quarter
of 2006, but showed continuing signs of stabilization.
Housing starts and permits continued to decline, and housing
affordability began to climb. However, sales of single-family
homes rose after four straight quarters of decline, and the
homeownership rate remained close to record levels, caused
in part by level prices and low mortgage rates.
Housing starts fell to a 1.564 million unit pace in the
fourth quarter from a 1.714 million rate in the third quarter,
and well below a three-decade high of 2.123 million the first
quarter. For 2006 as a whole, starts totaled 1.801 million,
down roughly 13 percent from the 2.068 million in 2005, the
highest annual total in over 30 years. Real residential
investment declined 15.9 percent at an annual rate in the
fourth quarter, following an 18.8 percent decline in the third
quarter. Residential investment, a key component of GDP,
subtracted 1.2 percentage points from real GDP in both the
third and fourth quarters. Leading housing market indicators
were mixed as housing permits signaled continued slow
growth, while measures of builder and buyer sentiment
indicated a possible pickup in the housing market. The
number of permits issued for future construction was 1.560
million at an annual rate in the fourth quarter, the slowest
quarterly rate since the third quarter of 2000. However,
measures of consumer homebuying attitudes and home
builder sentiment improved in the fourth quarter. The
National Association of Home Builder’s housing market
index rose 3.0 points from September to December, while
the net gain for the Michigan survey of consumer
sentiment’s homebuying conditions index was 16.0 points in
the fourth quarter. Both of these indexes continued the
upward trend in January, perhaps signaling that the
slowdown has decelerated.
Sales of new single-family homes rose by 3.1 percent at
an annual rate in the fourth quarter to a 1.061 million unit
pace from a 1.007 million unit pace in the third quarter.
Resales of existing single-family homes, accounting for
nearly 85 percent of all one-family home sales, edged up
0.2 percent at an annual rate to a 5.487 million unit rate after
two quarters of decline. The homeownership rate slipped by
0.2 percentage points to 68.7 percent in the fourth quarter
but remains at a historically high level, just 0.6 percent
below its peak in the spring of 2004. Slowing home price
appreciation should help the homeownership rate stay high.
The median sales price of new single-family homes rose just
1.83 percent in 2006 compared to 9.0 percent in 2005, while
the median price of existing single-family homes remained
flat in 2006 compared to a 10.6 percent increase in 2005.
Mortgage interest rates declined steadily in the fourth
quarter and remain low in early 2007. The average rate on a
30-year conventional mortgage dropped from 6.36 percent in
October to 6.14 percent in December, before edging up to
6.22 percent in January. This is 7.0 basis points higher than

9

the 30-year mortgage rate in January 2006, but still below
the 7-1/2 percent average posted in the second half of the
1990s. The low mortgage interest rate, along with stagnant
housing prices, should help boost the affordability of homes
in the coming months. The National Association of Realtors’
housing affordability index crept up to 109.2 in December
from a reading of 106.5 in September, but remained below
the 2005 average of 113.0.

Federal budget
Budget results for the first 3 months of fiscal year 2007
show the Federal deficit narrowed to $80.4 billion, an
improvement of roughly $40 billion compared with the same
months of fiscal year 2006. Receipts rose $43 billion or
8.2 percent through 3 months of the fiscal year versus last
year due to strong growth in individual income and
employment tax receipts (partly reflecting year-end
bonuses), and to the quarterly payment of corporate income
taxes, due in part to strong profit growth. Outlays increased
by $4.3 billion, or 0.7 percent in the first 3 months of fiscal
year 2007, partly reflecting less spending for rebuilding
assistance in the Gulf Coast region. The largest increase in
outlays was for Medicare, with expenditures up $24 billion
or nearly 34 percent compared with the first 3 months of
fiscal year 2006 (the new prescription drug benefit
contributed $13.1 billion to the increase). Net outlays for
national defense increased by $12.7 billion through the first
3 months of the fiscal year compared to the same 3 months
of fiscal year 2006, or 11.4 percent. Net interest expenses
fell by $4.9 billion or 8.6 percent from fiscal year 2006 due
in part to lower short-term interest rates.
The Administration’s Fiscal Year 2008 Budget was
released on February 5, 2007. The Federal budget projects
the deficit will decline from 1.9 percent of GDP in fiscal
year 2006 to 1.8 percent in the current fiscal year and 1.6
percent of GDP in fiscal year 2008. The budget projects a
small surplus in fiscal year 2012. Receipts are projected to
rise 4.8 percent in fiscal year 2008 and continue to grow at
an average pace of 5.6 percent through the rest of the
forecast horizon to fiscal year 2012. Growth in outlays is
projected to be 4.2 percent in fiscal year 2008 and then slow
to about 2.8 percent on average in the 4 fiscal years through
fiscal year 2012.
The economic projections underpinning the budget
estimate that real GDP will rise 2.9 percent in calendar 2007
and increase 3.1 percent in 2008. During the next few years,
both actual and potential growth are likely to continue to
moderate to about 3.0 percent – very close to the estimated
long-term potential rate of growth of the economy – and as a
result, the unemployment rate is projected to remain at about
4.8 percent. Consumer price inflation is predicted to remain
at 2.6 percent in calendar 2007 and 2008, then decline to
around 2.4 percent a year through 2012. These assumptions
are very close to the average of private forecasts.

PROFILE OF THE ECONOMY

Net national saving and investment
Net national saving has been on a downward trend since
the 1960s, in part due to declining private saving but also
reflecting the growth of Federal Government budget deficits
since the 1970s. Over this period, net national saving as a
share of net national product (NNP) declined from an
average of 12.2 percent in the 1960s to a slim 0.1 percent in
2005. In 2006, however, the net national saving rate
rebounded to 2.2 percent in the first three quarters of the
year.
The small reversal was mainly due to an improvement in
the Federal Government’s fiscal situation. In the first three
quarters of 2006, the Federal budget deficit narrowed to 1.4
percent of NNP from 2.8 percent in 2005. State and local
governments posted a small surplus in the first three quarters
of 2006, equivalent to 0.1 percent of NNP. Altogether,
government deficits as a share of NNP averaged 1.3 percent
in the first three quarters of 2006.
Private saving (of households and businesses) rose to 3.5
percent of NNP in the first three quarters of 2006 from 2.9
percent in 2005. The increase reflected a jump in the
corporate saving rate to 4.3 percent after hovering around
3.3 percent from 2002 through 2005. Personal saving as a
share of NNP has been on the decline since the early 1980s
and turned negative in 2005 for the first time since the
1930s, dipping to -0.3 percent. This downward trend
continued in 2006, with the ratio of personal saving to NNP
falling to -0.8 percent in the first three quarters of the year.
Net domestic investment was equivalent to 9.4 percent of
NNP in the first three quarters of 2006. That was up from
7.8 percent in 2005. The increase was mostly accounted for
by a pickup in private industry outlays for structures,
equipment and software, and inventory, which rose to 8.0

March 2007

percent of NNP in the first three quarters of 2006. Net
private domestic investment was around 6-1/2 percent of
NNP in each of the prior two calendar years. A growing
portion of domestic investment has been financed from
abroad in recent years. In 2006, foreign inflows were
equivalent to 7.2 percent of NNP in the first three quarters of
the year. That was up from around 1-1/2 percent of NNP in
the mid-1990s.

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 off-budget 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 an 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 that 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 offbudget 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 off-budget 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 United States Code 900922)] included off-budget 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.

FEDERAL FISCAL OPERATIONS

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 FRBs. 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 “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 on- and off-budget
receipts by source and outlays by function as reported to
each major fund group classification for the current fiscal
year to date and prior fiscal year to date.
• Table FFO-5 summarizes internal revenue receipts
by states and by type of tax. Amounts reported are
collections made in a fiscal year. They span several tax
liability years because they consist of prepayments
(estimated tax payments and taxes withheld by employers
for individual income and Social Security taxes), payments
made with tax returns and subsequent payments made after
tax returns are due or are filed (that is, payments with
delinquent returns or on delinquent accounts).
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
district where such a corporation reported its taxes from a
principal office rather than other districts where income was
earned or where individual income and Social Security taxes
were withheld. In addition, an individual may reside in one
district and work in another.
• Table FFO-6 includes customs collection of duties,
taxes, and fees by districts and ports.

First-Quarter Receipts
The following capsule analysis of budget
receipts, by source, for the first quarter of fiscal
year 2007 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, net of refunds, were $250.8 billion for the first
quarter of fiscal year 2007. This is an increase of $20.4
billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Withheld
receipts increased by $18.1 billion and non-withheld receipts
increased by $6.4 billion during this period. Refunds
increased by $4.0 billion over the comparable fiscal year
2006 quarter. There was an increase of $1.5 billion in
accounting adjustments between individual income tax
receipts and the Social Security and Medicare trust funds
over the comparable quarter in fiscal year 2006.
Corporate income taxes—Net corporate income tax
receipts were $98.8 billion for the first quarter of fiscal year
2007. This is an increase of $18.1 billion compared to the
prior year first quarter. The $18.1 billion change is

March 2007

comprised of an increase of $16.7 billion in estimated and
final payments, and a decrease of $1.4 billion in corporate
refunds.
Employment taxes and contributions—Employment
taxes and contributions receipts for the first quarter of fiscal
year 2007 were $179.1 billion, an increase of $6.4 billion
over the comparable prior year quarter. Receipts to the
Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, Federal Disability
Insurance, and Federal Hospital Insurance trust funds
changed by $4.7 billion, $0.8 billion, and $0.9 billion
respectively. There was a -$4.5 billion accounting
adjustment for prior years employment tax liabilities made
in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, while there was a
-$3.1 billion adjustment in the first quarter of fiscal year
2006.
Unemployment insurance—Unemployment insurance
receipts, net of refunds, for the first quarter of fiscal year
2007 were $6.0 billion, a decrease of $0.3 billion over the
comparable quarter of fiscal year 2006. Net State taxes
deposited in the U.S. Treasury decreased by $0.3 billion to
$5.2 billion. Net Federal Unemployment Tax Act taxes did
not change significantly from $0.9 billion.

INTRODUCTION: Source and Availability of the
Balance in the Account of the U.S. Treasury
The Department of the Treasury’s (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 FRBs, Treasury Regional Financial Centers,
Internal Revenue Service Centers, Bureau of the Public
Debt, and various electronic 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.
Under authority of Public Law 95-147 (codified at 31
United States Code 323), 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 (TT&L)
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 can
participate. The program permits Treasury to collect funds
through financial institutions and to leave the funds in TT&L
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 TT&L financial institution reserves
and on the economy. Likewise, those institutions wishing to
remit the funds to the Treasury account at FRBs do so as
collector depositaries.
Deposits to tax and loan accounts occur as customers of
financial institutions deposit tax payments that 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.

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.”
Treasury’s Financial Management Service (FMS)
compiles data in the “Treasury Bulletin” tables FD-2 and
FD-6 from the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the
United States.”
• 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 also are 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, that is, marketable
and nonmarketable, the total public debt securities
outstanding that are held by the public.
• 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 marketbased 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. (Federal 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.
In March 1971, Congress enacted a limited exception to
the amount of bonds with rates greater than 4-1/4 percent
that could be held by the public. This permitted Treasury to
offer securities maturing in more than 7 years at current
market interest rates 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. 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 FRBs.
• 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.
• 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 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 outstanding 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.

•

Table PDO-1 provides a maturity schedule of
interest-bearing marketable Treasury notes and bonds. 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 (FRBs), so that the “all other
investors” category includes all private holdings.
• Table PDO-2 presents the results of weekly auctions
of 4-, 13-, and 26-week bills. Treasury bills mature each

Thursday. Issues of 4- and 13-week bills are reopenings of
26-week bills. Issues of cash management bills also are
presented. High 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 bases.
To encourage the participation of individuals and smaller
institutions, Treasury accepts noncompetitive tenders of up to
$5 million for bills and $5 million for notes and bonds in each
auction of securities.

• Table PDO-3 lists the results of auctions of
marketable securities, other than weekly bills, in
chronological order over the past 2 years.
Note: Additional information, including auction
allotments by investor class for marketable Treasury coupon
and bill securities, is posted on the 7th business day of each
month at http://www.treas.gov/offices/domestic-finance/ debtmanagement/investor_class_auction.shtml.

private investors totaled $19,126 million. Accrued interest of
$0.25412 per $1,000 must be paid for the period from
September 30 to October 2.

On September 25, 2006, Treasury announced it would
auction $20,000 million of 2-year notes of Series Z-2008. The
issue was to refund $23,657 million of securities maturing
September 30 and to raise new cash of approximately $10,343
million.

In addition to the $20,000 million of tenders accepted in
the auction process, Treasury accepted $4,499 million from
FRBs for their own accounts. The minimum par amount
required for STRIPS of notes of Series Z-2008 is $1,000.

The notes of Series Z-2008 were dated September 30 and
issued October 2. They are due September 30, 2008, with
interest payable on March 31 and September 30 until
maturity. Treasury set an interest rate of 4-5/8 percent after
determining which tenders were accepted on a yield auction
basis.

On September 25, 2006, Treasury announced it would
auction $14,000 million of 5-year notes of Series N-2011. The
issue was to refund $23,657 million of securities maturing
September 30 and to raise new cash of approximately $10,343
million.

Treasury received tenders for the notes before 12 noon
eastern daylight saving time (e.d.s.t.) for noncompetitive
tenders and before 1 p.m. e.d.s.t. for competitive tenders on
September 27. Tenders totaled $55,300 million; Treasury
accepted $20,000 million. All noncompetitive and successful
competitive bidders were allotted securities at the high yield
of 4.660 percent with the equivalent price of $99.933494.
Treasury accepted in full all competitive tenders at yields
lower than 4.660 percent. Tenders at the high yield were
allotted 30.42 percent. The median yield was 4.635 percent,
and the low yield was 4.595 percent. Noncompetitive tenders
totaled $864 million. Competitive tenders accepted from

basis.

INTRODUCTION: Savings Bonds and Notes
Series EE bonds, on sale since July 1, 1980, and series I
bonds, on sale since September 1, 1998, are the savings
bonds currently being sold. As of September 1, 2004,
investors are no longer able to reinvest H and HH bonds or
exchange E and EE bonds for HH bonds. Series A-D were
sold from March 1, 1935, through April 30, 1941. Series E
was on sale from May 1, 1941, through December 31, 1979
(through June 1980 to payroll savers only). Series F and G
were sold from May 1, 1941, through April 30, 1952. Series
H was sold from June 1, 1952, through December 31, 1979.
Series HH bonds were sold for cash from January 1, 1980,

through October 31, 1982. Series J and K were sold from
May 1, 1952, through April 30, 1957. U.S. savings notes
were on sale May 1, 1967, through June 30, 1970. The notes
were eligible for purchase by individuals with the
simultaneous purchase of series E savings bonds.
The principal terms and conditions for purchase and
redemption and information on investment yields of savings
notes appear in the “Treasury Bulletins” of March 1967 and
June 1968; and in the Annual Report of the Secretary of the
Treasury for fiscal year 1974.

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.]
Effective January 1, 2001, Treasury’s Bureau of the
Public Debt revised formats, titles, and column headings in
the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the United
States,” Table I: Summary of Treasury Securities
Outstanding and Table II: Statutory Debt Limit. These
changes should reduce confusion and bring the publication
more in line with the public’s use of terms.
Treasury’s Financial Management Service (FMS)
compiles data in the “Treasury Bulletin” table OFS-1 from
the “Monthly Statement of the Public Debt of the United
States.” Effective June 2001, FMS revised procedures and
categories in this table to agree with the Bureau of the Public
Debt’s publication changes.

March 2007

• Table OFS-1 presents Treasury marketable and
nonmarketable securities and debt issued by other Federal
agencies held by Government accounts, the FRBs, and
private investors. Social Security and Federal retirement
trust fund investments comprise much of the Government
account holdings.
The FRBs acquire Treasury securities in the market as a
means of executing monetary policy.
• Table OFS-2 presents the estimated ownership of
U.S. Treasury securities. Information is primarily obtained
from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors Flow of Funds
data, Table L209. 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.)

MARKET YIELDS

INTRODUCTION: Market Yields
The table in this section presents yields on Treasury
marketable securities for maturities ranging from 1 month to
30 years.
Table MY-1 lists Treasury market bid yields at constant
maturities for bills, notes, and bonds. These Constant
Maturity Treasury rates (CMTs) are interpolated from the
Treasury yield curve and published daily at Treasury’s
Domestic Finance web site, www.ustreas.gov/offices/domesticfinance/debt-management/interest-rate/yield.shtml. The
yield curve is fitted daily using a hermite cubic spline. For
inputs, Treasury primarily uses the bid yields of the on-therun securities (most recently auctioned Treasury securities in
all maturity tranches that Treasury currently auctions) as

quoted in the secondary bond market as of approximately
3:30 p.m. each trading day. CMT yields are based on
semiannual interest payments and are read at constant
maturity points to develop a consistent data series.
The quotations used by Treasury to calculate the bid
yields and fit the yield curve are obtained by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York. The Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System also publishes the Treasury constant
maturity data series in its weekly Statistical Release H.15.
Treasury discontinued the 30-year constant maturity
yield during the time period February 18, 2002, through
February 8, 2006. Thus, 30-year yields for that time frame
are not available.

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. It 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, U.S.
Mint offices, the Federal Reserve banks (FRBs), 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 also are valued on this basis beginning July 1974.
2
Treasury values its gold stock at $42.2222 per fine troy ounce and pursuant to 31 United
States Code 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.

INTRODUCTION: Capital Movements
Background

Basic definitions

Data relating to U.S. international transactions in
financial instruments and to other portfolio capital
movements between the United States and foreign countries
have been collected in some form since 1935. This
information is necessary for compiling the U.S. balance of
payments accounts, for calculating the U.S. international
investment position, and for use in formulating U.S.
international financial and monetary policies.
From the beginning, reporting under the Treasury data
collection program has been mandatory. Under the current
Treasury International Capital (TIC) reporting system, an
assortment of monthly and quarterly reports are filed with
district Federal Reserve banks by commercial banks,
securities dealers, other financial institutions, and
nonbanking enterprises in the United States. These data are
centrally processed and maintained at the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, which, along with the district banks, acts
as fiscal agent for Treasury. Beginning in late 1998, the
Federal Reserve Board also undertakes services on behalf of
Treasury in support of the TIC data collection system. The
TIC reports of individual respondents are treated as
confidential, and access to the respondent level data is
strictly limited to specific staff of Treasury and the Federal
Reserve System.
Data derived from Treasury reports are published in the
Capital Movements section of this quarterly Treasury Bulletin
and are posted monthly on the TIC website,
http://www.ustreas.gov/tic. (See NOTE at the end of the
INTRODUCTION text for additional website information.)
TIC data aggregates are also published in the Federal Reserve
Bulletin and are used in the U.S. international transactions and
investment position compilations published by the
Department of Commerce in the Survey of Current Business.
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. Requests for
public comments on proposed changes are published in the
Federal Register, and any further modifications are based on
the comments received. The most recent revisions to selected
reporting forms and instructions were effective June 30, 2006.
Copies of the reporting forms and instructions may be
obtained from the Office of Program Services, Office of the
Assistant Secretary for International Affairs, Treasury,
Washington, D.C. 20220; the International Finance Division,
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
Washington, D.C. 20551; or district Federal Reserve banks.
Reporting forms and instructions also may be downloaded
from the TIC website.

The term “foreigner” as used in TIC reporting covers all
institutions and individuals resident outside the United
States, including: U.S. citizens domiciled abroad; the foreign
branches, subsidiaries and offices of U.S. banks and business
concerns; the central governments, central banks, and other
official institutions of foreign countries, wherever located;
and international and regional organizations, wherever
located. The term “foreigner” also includes persons in the
United States to the extent that they are known by reporting
institutions to be acting on behalf of foreigners.
In general, information is reported opposite the country or
geographical area where the foreigner is located, as shown on
records of reporting institutions. This information may not
always reflect the ultimate ownership of assets. Reporting
institutions are not required to go beyond addresses shown on
their records and 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 single country, but are accounted for in regional
groupings of such organizations. Effective beginning with
data for June 2006, information pertaining to the Bank for
International Settlements is now included with data for
international organizations, and information for the European
Central Bank is distributed across the individual euro-area
countries. For prior dates, information for these organizations
is included in “Other Europe”.
“Short-term” refers to obligations payable on demand or
having an original maturity of one year or less. “Long-term”
refers to obligations having an original maturity of more
than one year and includes securities having no maturity.

March 2007

Reporting coverage
TIC reports are required from banks and other depository
institutions, bank/financial holding companies (BHCs/FHCs),
securities brokers and dealers, and nonbanking concerns in
the United States, including the branches, agencies,
subsidiaries, and other affiliates in the United States of
foreign banking and nonbanking firms. Institutions with total
reportable liabilities, claims, or securities transactions below
specified reporting thresholds are exempt from reporting.
Beginning in February 2003, substantial revisions to the
coverage and formats of the TIC B-series and C-series forms
were introduced. The reasons for the changes were to
comply with new and expanded international standards for
reporting data on portfolio investment; to reduce reporting
burden; to clarify reporting concepts and instructions; and to
the data. Notices of these changes and requests for public

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

improve the quality of the series by closing known gaps in
the data.
Banks, other depository institutions, and securities brokers
and dealers file monthly B-series reports covering their dollar
liabilities to and dollar claims on foreigners in a number of
countries. Quarterly reports are filed for liabilities and claims
denominated in foreign currencies and for claims on
foreigners held for respondents’ domestic customers. All
positions are exclusive of long-term securities. Beginning
January 2001, the exemption level applicable to the banking
reports was raised from $15 million to $50 million. This
exemption level is also subject to the provision that reportable
amounts for any one country do not exceed $25 million.
Banks and other depository institutions, securities
brokers and dealers, and other entities report their
transactions with foreigners by country in long-term
securities on monthly Form S. Respondents must report
securities transactions with foreigners if their aggregate
purchases or their aggregate sales amount to at least $50
million during the covered month.
Quarterly reports are filed by exporters, importers,
industrial and commercial concerns, financial institutions
(other than banks, other depository institutions, and
securities firms), and other nonbanking enterprises on their
liabilities and claims positions with unaffiliated foreigners.
Separate reports are filed for financial balances and for
commercial balances. Effective for reports filed as of March
31, 2003, the threshold applicable to Form CQ-1 for
reporting financial liabilities to, and claims on, foreigners is
$50 million, up from $10 million. At the same time, the
reporting threshold for Form CQ-2, which covers
commercial liabilities and claims positions with foreigners,
was raised from $10 million to $25 million.
Effective with the reports filed for June 2006, the country
coverage of the monthly TIC forms was expanded
significantly and the semiannual reports, which covered the
smaller market economies, were discontinued. Country
coverage was also expanded for the quarterly banking forms,
the Form S, the Form D, and the Forms CQ-1 and CQ-2,
effective with reports filed for June 2006.
The data in these tables do not cover all types of reported
capital movements between the United States and other
countries. Except as noted in Section IV in “Description of
statistics” below, 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 U.S. balance of
payments.

59

Description of statistics
Data collected on the TIC forms are published in the
“Capital Movements” tables in four sections. Each section
contains all the data relevant to the same statistical series,
with tables showing time series by type and country, and
detailed breakdowns of the latest available data. The
expansion of the country coverage on the standard report
forms allows for publication of additional country detail for
data beginning as of June 2006. As a result, the former
Capital Movements Section III, which listed bank-reported
claims and liabilities of selected countries from the
semiannual reports, has been discontinued.

• Section I covers liabilities to foreigners reported by
banks, other depository institutions, and securities brokers
and dealers in the United States. BHCs/FHCs also report for
all domestic nonbank, non-securities firm affiliates, other
than their insurance affiliates, which report separately on the
C-series forms. Dollar-denominated liabilities are reported
monthly on Forms BL-1 and BL-2. Liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies are reported quarterly on Form BQ-2.
Respondents report certain of their own liabilities and a wide
range of their custody liabilities to foreigners. Effective with
reports filed as of February 28, 2003, coverage was
broadened to cover the positions of U.S. broker-dealer
respondents with their affiliated foreign offices. (Depository
institutions and BHCs/FHCs already reported such
positions.) The scope of the reports was also extended to
include cross-border brokerage balances as well as offshore
sweep accounts and loans to U.S. residents in “managed”
foreign offices of U.S. reporting institutions. Additionally, in
a new Part 2, Form BQ-2 was expanded to include the
foreign currency-denominated liabilities held by respondents
for their domestic customers. Further, banks’ own positions
have been defined to be consistent with regulatory reports
such as the FR 2950/2951 to include all amounts in the
respondent’s “due to/due from” accounts, unless in an
instrument that is specifically excluded. Finally, the columns
for demand deposits and non-transactions accounts are now
combined, as are short-term U.S. agency securities and other
negotiable and readily transferable instruments.
• Section II presents claims on foreigners reported
by banks, other depository institutions, and securities
brokers and dealers in the United States. BHCs/FHCs also
report for their domestic nonbank and non-securities firm
affiliates, other than their insurance affiliates, which report
separately on the C-series forms. Data on respondents’ own
dollar claims are collected monthly on Form BC.
Information on claims held for domestic customers as well
as on claims denominated in foreign currencies is collected
on a quarterly basis only on Forms BQ-1 and BQ-2,
respectively. Effective with reports filed as of February 28,
2003, reporting coverage was expanded as outlined in
Section I. Additionally, columns were added for separate
reporting of issued by foreigners. Further, the foreigner

March 2007

CAPITAL MOVEMENTS

category, negotiable CDs and other short-term negotiable
instruments issued by foreigners. Further, the foreigner
category, “foreign official institutions,” replaced the former,
broader category, “foreign public borrowers,” for
consistency with the liabilities reporting on this sector.
• Section III (formerly reported as 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 securities brokers and dealers), and other
nonbanking enterprises in the United States. Data exclude
claims on foreigners held by banks in the United States.
Historically, the TIC reports CQ-1 and CQ-2 exclude
accounts of nonbanking enterprises in the United States with
their own branches and subsidiaries abroad or with their
foreign parent companies. Such accounts with foreign
affiliates are reported by business enterprises to Commerce
on its direct investment forms. There was an exception when
reporting of foreign affiliate positions of insurance
underwriting subsidiaries and financial intermediaries was
included in Section B of Form CQ-1 for reports between
end-March 2003 and end-March 2006. That reporting
requirement was discontinued with the reports beginning as
of June 2006.
• Section IV (formerly Section V) contains
information on transactions with foreigners in long-term
domestic and foreign securities as reported by banks,
securities brokers and dealers, 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

March 2007

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 allocation of the transactions data
indicates the country of location of the foreign buyers and
sellers who deal directly with reporting institutions in the
United States. The data do not necessarily indicate the
country of beneficial owner or issuer, or the currency of
denomination of securities. For instance, a U.S. purchaser’s
order for Japanese securities may be placed directly with an
intermediary in London. In this instance, the transaction for
Form S reporting purposes would be recorded opposite the
United Kingdom and not opposite Japan. Similarly,
purchases and sales of U.S. securities for the account of an
Italian resident may be placed, for example, in the Swiss
market. In that case, the trades would be reported opposite
Switzerland and not opposite Italy.
NOTE: Current and historical data on United States
transactions with foreigners in long-term securities and on
the gross foreign liabilities and claims reported by banks in
the United States are available on the TIC website:
http://www.ustreas.gov/tic. These data may be downloaded
as separate time series for each country or geographical area
regularly shown in the capital movements tables. Also
available on this website are other series, including a table
on “Major Foreign Holders of Treasury Securities,” showing
estimated total holdings of U.S. Treasury bills, bonds and
notes for current and recent periods. All data series on the
TIC website are updated monthly.

Beginning January 2001, Cayman Islands replaced British West Indies in reporting format.

March 2007

U.S. liabilities to foreigners
reported by U.S. banks were
recorded at $3.6 trillion in
December 2006, an increase
of $431 billion from yearend
2005. U.S. banking liabilities
include foreign holdings of
U.S. short-term securities but
exclude foreign holdings of
U.S. long-term securities.
U.S. banking liabilities
increased about $169 billion
in 2005, about $635 billion
in 2004, and about $316
billion in 2003. Much of the
increase in liabilities to
foreigners in 2003 reflects
changes to the reporting
scope of the TIC reporting
system effective February
2003. Between March and
December of 2003, when
data were reported on a
consistent basis, banking
liabilities increased about
$136 billion.
U.S. banking liabilities are
concentrated in international
financial centers. The data on
this page show that more
than half of U.S. banking
liabilities is currently
recorded against the United
Kingdom and banking
centers in the Caribbean.
These financial centers have
recorded most of the growth
in banking liabilities in
recent years. Foreigners
domiciled in the rest of
Europe and in Asia account
for about one-third of U.S.
banking liabilities.

CHART CM-B.—U.S. Claims on Foreigners
Reported by U.S. Banks, Brokers, and Dealers with Respect to Selected Countries

1100

In September 2006, U.S. claims
on foreigners reported by U.S.
banks amounted to about $2.8
trillion, an increase of $385
billion from the level recorded at
yearend 2005. U.S. banking
claims include holdings of foreign
short-term securities but exclude
holdings of foreign long-term
securities. U.S. banking claims
increased $256 billion in 2005,
$488 billion in 2004, and $183
billion in 2003. In large part, the
increase in claims in 2003 reflects
changes to the reporting scope of
the TIC reporting system effective
February 2003. Between March
and December of 2003, when data
were reported on a consistent
basis, banking claims increased
$12 billion.

As with U.S. banking liabilities,
U.S. banking claims on foreigners
are concentrated in international
financial centers. About 60
percent of these claims are
reported opposite the United
Kingdom and banking centers in
the Caribbean. The share of
claims against foreigners
domiciled in Asia has declined
over the past several years from
about 20 percent at the end of
1996 to less than 10 percent
currently.

The data on this page represent foreign
investors’ purchases and sales of longterm U.S. securities (that is, U.S.
Treasury and Government agency
bonds and notes, and U.S. corporate
bonds and stocks) as reported to the
TIC reporting system. Foreign
investors also acquired U.S. equities
through mergers and reincorporations
that involve stock swaps. Net foreign
acquisitions of U.S. equities through
stock swaps have been modest,
amounting to $2 billion in 2003, $36
billion in 2004, $6 billion in 2005, and
$4 billion in 2006. (Stock swaps data
for the most recent quarter are Federal
Reserve Board/Treasury estimates and
are subject to substantial revisions.)
These stock swaps are not reported
under the TIC reporting system, but
are available on the TIC web site. The
TIC website also provides estimates
from the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York on principal repayment
flows on foreign holdings of U.S.
government agency and corporate
asset-backed securities (ABS). These
repayments, also not reported under
the TIC system, are estimated to have
reduced foreign net purchases of U.S.
securities by $123 billion in 2003, $86
billion in 2004, and $141 billion in
both 2005 and 2006.

Net foreign purchases of U.S.
securities first surpassed $100 billion
in 1993. In 2003, net foreign
acquisitions of U.S. securities
(including stock swaps and accounting
for ABS repayment flows) totaled
$599 billion. Net acquisitions picked
up to $866 billion in 2004, and a bit
further to $875 billion in 2005. In
2006, net foreign acquisitions grew to
a new record of $1,005 billion.

The data on this page represent U.S.
investors’ purchases and sales of longterm foreign securities as reported to
the TIC reporting system. However, in
the past several years, U.S. investors
also have acquired a substantial amount
of foreign stocks, mostly European,
through mergers that involve stock
swaps. In addition, when foreign firms
reincorporate in the United States, the
associated stock swap reduces U.S.
holdings of foreign equity. Net
acquisitions through stock swaps
amounted to $80 billion in 2000, $47
billion in 2001, $3 billion in 2002, $17
billion in 2003, -$12 billion in 2004, $4
billion in 2005, and $29 billion in
2006. (Stock swaps data for the most
recent quarter are Federal Reserve
Board/Treasury estimates and are
subject to substantial revisions.) These
stock swaps are not reported under the
TIC reporting system, but are available
on the TIC web site.
Including the stock swaps, annual U.S.
net purchases of long-term foreign
securities averaged about $100 billion
from the mid-1990s through 2000,
without much variation from year to
year. U.S. investors’ acquisitions of
foreign securities (including stock
swaps) then slowed over the 2001-2003
period before rebounding to $141
billion in 2004 and $176 billion in
2005. The pace of U.S. acquisitions
picked up further in 2006, as U.S.
investors acquired $275 billion in
foreign securities.

INTRODUCTION: Foreign Currency Positions
The “Treasury Bulletin” reports foreign currency
holdings of large foreign exchange market participants.
These reports 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, Japanese yen, Swiss
franc, pound sterling, and euro) and the U.S. dollar.
Positions in the U.S. dollar, which have been collected since
January 1999, are intended to approximate “all other”
currency positions of reporting institutions. 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 United
States Code 5315; 31 Code of Federal Regulations 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.

March 2007

A quarterly report must be filed throughout the calendar
year by each foreign exchange market participant that had
more than $5 billion equivalent in foreign exchange
contracts on the last business day of any quarter the previous
year (end March, June, September, or December).
This information is published in six sections
corresponding to each of the major currencies covered by the
reports. Tables I-1 through VI-1 present the currency data
reported weekly by major market participants. Tables I-2
through VI-2 present more detailed currency data of major
market participants, based on monthly Treasury reports.
Tables I-3 through VI-3 present quarterly consolidated
currency data reported by large market participants that 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 also was noted separately on
monthly and quarterly reports through December 1998,
when this practice was discontinued. 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.

INTRODUCTION: Exchange Stabilization Fund
To stabilize the exchange value of the dollar, the
Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) was established pursuant
to chapter 6, section 10 of the Gold Reserve Act of January
30, 1934 (codified at 31 United States Code 5302), which
authorized establishment of a Treasury 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
International Monetary Fund. 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. “Profit (+) or
loss (-) 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
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.

March 2007

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.”

FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, EXCERPT

INTRODUCTION: Financial Report of the United States Government
The following pages are excerpted from the 2006
Financial Report of the United States Government (Financial
Report). The report and accompanying information, prepared
and published annually by the Financial Management Service,
are modeled after corporate-type reports and are developed on
an accrual basis of accounting.
The excerpts represent some of the most noteworthy
information contained in the Financial Report. Data for the
Financial Report are compiled from Federal program agency

accounting systems Governmentwide. Treasury also presents
a management discussion and analysis, the customary notes
to the financial statements, a section on stewardship
information, and supplemental information in the complete
document.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) is
required by law to audit the Financial Report. GAO’s report,
as well as the complete Financial Report, can be accessed
easily through the internet at www.fms.treas.gov/fr.

FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, EXCERPT

Financial Statements
of the United States Government
for the Years Ended September 30, 2006,
and September 30, 2005
Statements of Net Cost
These statements present the net cost of fiscal years 2006 and 2005 Government operations, which include the
operations related to earmarked funds, funds financed by specifically identified revenues, often supplemented by other
financing sources, which remain available over time. For the purposes of this document, “Government” refers to the United
States Government. It categorizes costs by Chief Financial Officer Act entities and other significant entities. Costs and earned
revenues are generally presented by department on an accrual basis, while the budget presents costs and revenues by
obligations and outlays generally on a cash basis. In the Statements of Net Cost, the costs and earned revenues are divided
between the corresponding departments and entities mentioned above, providing greater accountability by showing the
relationship of the agencies’ net cost to the Governmentwide net cost. The focus of the budget of the United States is by
agency. Budgets are prepared, defended, and monitored by agency. In reporting by agency, we are assisting the external users
in assessing the budget integrity, operating performance, stewardship, and systems and control of the Federal Government.
These statements contain the following three components:
• Gross cost—This is the full cost of all the departments and entities. These costs are assigned on a cause-and-effect basis, or
reasonably allocated to the corresponding departments and entities.
• Earned revenue—This is revenue the Government earned by providing goods and services to the public at a price.
• Net cost—This is computed by subtracting earned revenue from gross cost.
Net cost for Governmentwide reporting purposes includes the General Services Administration (GSA) and the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) agency allocations, and is net of intragovernmental eliminations. For this reason, individual
agency net cost amounts will not agree with the agency’s financial statements. Because of their specific functions, most of
the costs originally associated with GSA and OPM have been allocated to and reflected in the costs of their user agencies.
The remaining costs for GSA and OPM on the Statements of Net Cost are the administrative operating costs, the expenses
from prior and past costs from health and pension plan amendments, and the actuarial gains and losses for these agencies.
Health and pension benefits that are not reported in the individual agency statements have been allocated out of OPM to the
agencies. The interest on securities issued by the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) held by the public is part of
Treasury’s responsibilities, but because of its importance, and the dollar amounts, it is reported separately in these statements.

Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Position
These statements report the results of Government operations which include the results of earmarked fund operations.
They include unearned revenues that are generated principally by the Government’s sovereign power to tax, levy duties, and
assess fines and penalties. These statements also cover the cost of Government operations, net of revenue earned from the
sale of goods and services to the public (earned revenues). They further include any adjustments and unreconciled
transactions that affect the net position.

Revenue
Individual income tax and tax withholdings include Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA)/Self-Employment
Contributions Act (SECA) taxes and other taxes including payroll taxes collected from other agencies. These taxes are
characterized as “unearned” revenue.

March 2007

109

FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, EXCERPT

Excise taxes consist of taxes collected for various items, such as airline tickets, gasoline products, distilled spirits and
imported liquor, tobacco, firearms, and others. These are also characterized as “unearned” revenue.
Miscellaneous earned revenues consist of earned revenues received from the public with virtually no associated cost.
Therefore, unlike other earned revenues, miscellaneous earned revenues are not subtracted from gross cost to derive net cost.
It also includes rents and royalties on the Outer Continental Shelf Lands resulting from the leasing and development of
mineral resources on public lands.
Earmarked revenues are from specifically identified “earmarked” activities during the year. Earmarked revenues are
required by statute to be used for designated activities, benefits or purposes and must be accounted for separately from the
rest of the Government’s non-earmarked revenues. Refer to Note 20—Earmarked Funds for detailed information.
Intragovernmental interest represents interest earned from the investment of surplus earmarked revenues, which finance
the deficit spending of non-earmarked operations. These investments are recorded as Intragovernmental debt holdings and
included in Note 10, in the table titled Intragovernmental Debt Holdings: Federal Debt Securities Held as Investments by
Government Accounts. These interest payments, and the associated investments, are eliminated in the consolidation process.

Net Cost of Government Operations
The net cost of Government operations (which is gross cost less earned revenue) flows through from the Statements of
Net Cost. The net cost associated with earmarked activities is separately reported.

Intragovernmental Transfers
Intragovernmental transfers reflect amounts required by statute to be transferred from the General Fund of the Treasury
to earmarked funds, as well as contributions to earmarked funds made by Federal agencies on behalf of their employees,
beneficiaries, or others.

Other-Unmatched Transactions and Balances
Unmatched transactions and balances are adjustments needed to bring the change in net position into balance due to
unreconciled differences, agency reporting errors, and timing differences in the consolidated financial statements. Refer to
Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and the Supplemental Information—Unmatched Transactions and
Balances for detailed information.

Net Position, Beginning of Period
The net position, beginning of period, reflects the net position reported on the prior year’s balance sheet as of the end of
that fiscal year. The net position for earmarked funds is shown separately.
Prior period adjustments are revisions to adjust the beginning net position and balances presented on the prior year
financial statements. Refer to Note 1B—Basis of Accounting and Revenue Recognition, and Note 17—Prior Period
Adjustments-Corrections of Errors for detailed information.

Net Position, End of Period
The net position, end-of-period, amount reflects the net position as of the end of the fiscal year. The net position for
earmarked funds is shown separately.

FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, EXCERPT

Reconciliations of Net Operating Cost and Unified Budget
Deficit
The purpose of the reconciliation is to report how the proprietary net operating cost and the unified budget deficit relate
to each other. The premise of the reconciliation is that the accrual and budgetary accounting bases share transaction data.
These statements report the reconciliation of the results of operations (net operating cost) on the Statements of
Operations and Changes in Net Position to the unified budget deficit in the President’s budget.
Receipts and outlays in the President’s budget are measured primarily on a cash basis and differ from the basis of
accounting measures used in the Financial Report. These statements begin with the net results of operations (net operating
cost), where operating revenues are reported on a modified cash basis of accounting and the net cost of Government
operations on an accrual basis of accounting and reports activities where the bases of accounting for the components of net
operating cost and the unified budget deficit differed.

Components of Net Operating Cost Not Part of the
Budget Deficit
This information includes the operating components, such as the changes of benefits payable for veterans, military and
civilian employees, and the environmental liabilities and depreciation expense not included in the budget results.

Components of the Budget Deficit Not Part of Net
Operating Cost
This information includes the budget components, such as capitalized fixed assets, changes in accounts and taxes
receivable, and increases in other assets not included in the operating results. These items are typically part of the balance
sheets only, and are not part of the operating results. All Other Reconciling Items represent the net difference that is needed
to balance this statement to the unified budget deficit.

Statements of Changes in Cash Balance from Unified Budget
and Other Activities
The primary purpose of these statements is to report how the annual unified budget deficit relates to the change in the
Government’s operating cash balance and debt held by the public. It explains why the unified budget deficit normally would
not result in an equivalent change in the Government’s operating cash balance.
These statements reconcile the unified budget deficit to the change in operating cash during the fiscal year and explain
how the budget deficits (fiscal years 2006 and 2005) were financed. A budget deficit is the result of outlays (expenditures)
exceeding receipts (revenue) during a particular fiscal year.
In depicting how the unified budget deficits were financed, these statements show that in fiscal years 2006 and 2005, the
greatest amounts were net new borrowings from the public. Other transactions also required cash disbursements and are not
part of the repayments of the debt. These other transactions, such as the payment of interest on debt held by the public,
required cash payments and contributed to the use of cash. These statements show the differences between accrual and cash
budgetary basis, mainly because of timing differences in the financial statements.

Balance Sheets
The balance sheets show the Government’s assets and liabilities. When combined with stewardship information, this
information presents a more comprehensive understanding of the Government’s financial position. All of the line items on
the balance sheets are described in the Notes to the Financial Statements. The net position for earmarked funds is shown
separately.

Assets
Assets included on the balance sheets are resources of the Government that remain available to meet future needs. The
most significant assets that are reported on the balance sheets are property, plant, and equipment; inventories; and loans
receivable. There are, however, other significant resources available to the Government that extend beyond the assets
presented in these financial statements. Those resources include stewardship assets, including natural resources, and the
Government’s sovereign powers to tax, regulate commerce, and set monetary policy.

Liabilities and Net Position
Liabilities are obligations of the Government resulting from prior actions that will require financial resources. The most
significant liabilities reported on the balance sheets are Federal debt securities held by the public and accrued interest and
Federal employee and veteran benefits payable. Liabilities also include environmental and disposal liabilities and social
insurance benefits due and payable as of the reporting date.
As with reported assets, the Government’s responsibilities, policy commitments, and contingencies are much broader
than these reported balance sheet liabilities. They include the social insurance programs in the Statements of Social Insurance
and are disclosed in the Supplemental Information—Social Insurance section and a wide range of other programs under
which the Government provides benefits and services to the people of this Nation, as well as certain future loss
contingencies.
The magnitude and complexity of social insurance programs, coupled with the extreme sensitivity of projections
relating to the many assumptions of the programs, produce a wide range of possible results. Note 23—Social Insurance
describes the social insurance programs, reports long-range estimates that can be used to assess the financial condition of the
programs, and explains some of the factors that impact the various programs. Using this information, readers can apply their
own judgment as to the condition and sustainability of the individual programs.
Each of the social insurance programs has an associated trust fund to account for its activity. The collection of
earmarked taxes and other earmarked revenue is credited to the corresponding trust fund that will use these funds to meet a
particular Government purpose. If the collections from taxes and other sources exceed the payments to the beneficiaries, the
excess revenue is invested in Treasury securities or “loaned” to the Treasury’s General Fund; therefore, the trust fund
balances do not represent cash. An explanation of the trust funds for social insurance and many of the other large trust funds
is included in Note 20—Earmarked Funds and Note 21—Dedicated Collections. That note also contains information about
trust fund receipts, disbursements, and assets.
The Government has entered into contractual commitments requiring the future use of financial resources and has
unresolved contingencies where existing conditions, situations, or circumstances create uncertainty about future losses.
Commitments as well as contingencies that do not meet the criteria for recognition as liabilities on the balance sheets, but for
which there is at least a reasonable possibility that losses have been incurred, are disclosed in Note 18—Contingencies and
Note 19—Commitments.
Because of its sovereign power to tax and borrow, and the country’s wide economic base, the Government has unique
access to financial resources through generating tax revenues and issuing Federal debt securities. This provides the
Government with the ability to meet present obligations and those that are anticipated from future operations and are not
reflected in net position.

March 2007

112

FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, EXCERPT

Statements of Social Insurance
The Statements of Social Insurance provide estimates of the status of the most significant Social Insurance programs;
Social Security, Medicare, Railroad Retirement, and Black Lung social insurance programs, which are administered by the
Social Security Administration (SSA), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB), and the Department of Labor (DOL), respectively. The estimates are actuarial present values1 of the projections and
are based on the economic and demographic assumptions representing the trustees’ best estimates as set forth in the relevant
Social Security and Medicare trustees’ reports and in the relevant agency performance and accountability reports for the
Railroad Retirement Board and the Department of Labor (Black Lung).

1

Present values recognize that a dollar paid or collected next year is worth less than a dollar today, because a dollar today could be saved and earn a
year’s worth of interest. To calculate a present value, future amounts are thus reduced using an assumed interest rate, and those reduced amounts are
summed.

and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Public Law 97-248,
dated September 3, 1982) reestablished the trust fund in the
Internal Revenue Code (26 United States Code 9502)
effective September 1, 1982.
Treasury transfers from the general fund to the trust
fund amounts equivalent to the taxes received from
transportation of persons and property by air, gasoline and
jet fuel used in commercial and noncommercial aircraft,
and an international arrival and departure tax. 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.
Treasury bases these transfers on estimates made by the
Secretary of the Treasury. These are subject to adjustments
in later transfers in the amount of actual tax receipts.
The Taxpayers Relief Act of 1997 (Public Law 105-35),
effective October 1, 1997, extended the aviation excise
taxes for 10 years. The taxes now expire on September 30,
2007. The Act included other provisions that:
• Converted the 10 percent ad valorem tax on
domestic passenger tickets to a combination of ad
valorem/flight segment tax over 3 years, beginning October
1, 1997. Beginning October 1999 through September 30,
2007, the tax is 7.5 percent, plus in calendar year 2006, a
$3.30 tax per segment.
• Retained the existing freight waybill and general
aviation jet fuel/gas taxes. It also retained a special rule
applied to flights between the continental United States and
Alaska or Hawaii. The $6 departure tax is indexed to the
Consumer Price Index. Effective calendar year 2006, the
tax is $7.30.
• Imposed a new 7.5 percent tax on payments to
airlines for frequent flyer and similar awards by banks and
credit card companies, merchants and frequent flyer

March 2007

program partners, such as other airlines, hotels and rental
car companies, and other businesses.
• Increased the $6 international departure tax to $12
per passenger and added a $12 international arrival tax,
indexed to the Consumer Price Index. Effective 2006, the
tax is $14.50.
• Lowered ticket tax rates on flights to certain rural
airports to 7.5 percent without a flight segment tax
component.
• Transferred revenues from the 4.3 cents-per-gallon
aviation fuel tax previously dedicated to reducing the
national deficit from the general fund to the Airport and
Airway Trust Fund.
The Administration is proposing the current tax system
be replaced by a mix of adjusted taxes and user fees. This
will decrease both revenue and outlays from the trust fund
beginning in fiscal year 2009.
When the provisions of 26 United States Code 9602(b)
are met, amounts available in the trust fund exceed outlay
requirements, Treasury invests excess amounts in public
debt securities and credits the interest to the fund.
Additional sums from the general fund also are credited as
authorized and made available, by law, if they are needed to
meet outlay requirements.
Treasury makes available to the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation
(DOT), amounts required for outlays to carry out the
Airport and Airway program. The Secretary of the Treasury
makes other charges to the trust fund to transfer certain
refunds of taxes and certain outfits, under section 34 of the
Internal Revenue Code (IRC).
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 trust fund during the past fiscal
year and those expected during the next 5 fiscal years.

INTRODUCTION: Uranium Enrichment
Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund
The Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and
Decommissioning Fund was established on the books of the
Treasury in fiscal year 1993, according to provisions of the
Energy Policy Act of 1992 (42 United States Code 2297g).
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 (DOE)
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

March 2007

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 United
States Code 2297g(b)(1) 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 United States Code
2297g-1, as amended) authorizes funding to ensure annual
deposits to the fund of $518.2 million before adjustments for
inflation. The Act stipulates that the Government deposit
$369.6 million, adjusted for inflation, annually. The Act also
calls for deposits of $150 million from domestic public
utility assessments. Between the fiscal years of 1993 and
2006, the total Government contribution amount authorized
by the Act was $5,749.5 million. During that time span, the
Government contributed only $4,910.4 million to the fund.
The resulting shortfall in authorized Government
contributions is, therefore, $839.1 million.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Black Lung Disability Trust Fund
The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund was established
on the books of the Treasury in fiscal year 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 97-119) reestablished the fund in the Internal
Revenue Code (IRC), 26 United States Code 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 rates 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
year 1991. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987
(Public Law 100-203, title X, section 10503), 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 coal sold; 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 (DOL). Also charged to the fund
are administrative expenses incurred by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) and 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 HHS [26 United
States Code 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 99662, November 17, 1986) (26 United States Code 9505).
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 (DOT) for fiscal year
1995 (Public Law 103-331, September 28, 1994), section
339, 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 Implementation Act (Public Law 103-182,
section 683), which amends paragraph (3) of section 9505(c)
of the IRC of 1986, to authorize payment of up to $5 million
annually to Treasury for all expenses of administration
incurred by the Treasury, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
and the Department of Commerce (Commerce) related to the
administration of subchapter A of chapter 36 (relating to
harbor maintenance tax). Section 201 of the Water

Resources Development Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-303)
authorizes use of the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund for
construction of dredged material disposal facilities
associated with the operation and maintenance of Federal
navigation projects for commercial navigation.
A summary judgment issued October 25, 1995, by the
United States Court of International Trade in the case United
States Shoe Corp. v. United States (Court No. 94-11-00668)
found the Harbor Maintenance fee unconstitutional under the
Export Clause of the Constitution (Article I, section 9, clause
5) and enjoined the Customs Service from collecting the fee.
The decision was affirmed by the Supreme Court on
March 31, 1998 (118 Supreme Court 1290). With the tax on
exports no longer collected, revenues have been reduced by
approximately 30 percent.
The Code requires the Secretary of the Treasury to
submit an annual report to Congress [26 United States Code
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.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Highway Trust Fund
The Highway Trust Fund was established on the books
of the Treasury in fiscal year 1957, according to provisions
of the Highway Revenue Act of 1956 (Act of June 29, 1956,
chapter 462, section 209). It has been amended and extended
by various highway surface transportation and other acts
since 1959. Section 1110(d) of the Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy For
Users (SAFETEA-LU) (Public Law 109-59) extended the
Highway Trust Fund to be available for making expenditures
before September 30, 2009 (October 1, 2009, in the case of
expenditures for administrative expenses).
Amounts equivalent to taxes on gasoline, diesel fuel,
special motor fuels, certain tires, heavy trucks and trailers,
and heavy vehicle 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 twice
monthly based on estimates by the Secretary of the Treasury,
subject to later adjustments to reflect the amount of actual
tax receipts. Amounts available in the fund exceeding outlay
requirements are invested in non-interest-bearing public debt
securities.
Within the fund is a mass transit account, funded by a
portion of the excise tax collections under sections 4041 and
4081 of the IRC (title 26 United States Code). The funds
from this account are used for expenditures in accordance
with chapter 53 of title 49 United States Code, the
Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991
(Public Law 102-240), the Transportation Equity Act for the
21st Century (TEA-21), and SAFETEA-LU. The remaining
excise taxes are included in a separate account within the

March 2007

trust fund commonly referred to as the highway account.
Expenditures from this account are made according to the
provisions of various transportation acts.
Amounts required for outlays to carry out the eligible
surface transportation programs are made available to the
responsible operating administrations within the 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 the Aquatic
Resources Trust Fund.
The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of Transportation, is required to submit annual
reports to Congress by section 9602(a) of title 26 United
States Code. 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.
In addition, the Secretary of the Treasury is required by
26 U.S.C. 9503(d)(7) to report to specified Congressional
Committees any estimate which he, in consultation with the
Secretary of Transportation, makes pursuant to 26 U.S.C.
9503(d)(1) or any determination which he makes pursuant to
26 U.S.C. 9503(d)(2). The Congressional Committees are
the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of
Representatives, the Committee on Finance of the Senate,
the Committees on the Budget of both Houses, the
Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the
House of Representatives, and the Committee on
Environment and Public Works of the Senate.

TRUST FUNDS

INTRODUCTION: Inland Waterways Trust Fund
The Inland Waterways Trust Fund was established by the
Treasury in fiscal year 1984, pursuant to section 203 of the
Inland Waterways Revenue Act of 1978 (Public Law 95502) and continued pursuant to section 1405 of the Water
Resources Development Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-662,
codified at 26 United States Code 9506). Under 26 United
States Code 9506(b), amounts from taxes on fuel used in
commercial transportation on inland waterways, as
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, are
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 Inland Waterways Revenue Act of 1978 (Public
Law 95-502) provides that amounts in the trust fund shall be
available as provided, by appropriations acts, for
construction and rehabilitation expenditures for navigation
on the inland and intracoastal waterways of the United States
described in 33 United States Code 1804. Expenditures must
be otherwise authorized by law.
Annual reports to Congress are required by 26 United
States Code 9602(a) 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.

INTRODUCTION: Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund
The Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust
Fund was established in fiscal year 1981 according to
provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Public Law 96-510,
codified at 26 United States Code 9508), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and Re-authorization Act of 1986
(Public Law 99-499, dated October 17, 1986), sections
13163(c) and 13242(d)(42) of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 (Public Law 103-66, dated August
10, 1993), and section 1032(e)(13) of the Taxpayer Relief Act
of 1987 (Public Law 105-34, dated August 5, 1997).
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 EPA for
programmatic and administrative expenses.
An annual report to Congress by the Secretary of the
Treasury is required by 26 United States Code 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 year 1983, according to section 302 of
the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 [Public Law 97-425,
codified at 42 United States Code 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 the
Department of Energy (DOE), is required by 42 United
States Code 10222(e)(1). This report must present the
financial condition and the results of operations of the waste
fund during the preceding fiscal year.

INTRODUCTION: Reforestation Trust Fund
The Reforestation Trust Fund was established on the
books of the Treasury in fiscal year 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 [Public Law 96451, codified at 16 United States Code 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,
other wood-veneer assemblies and building boards. Public
Law 99-190, title II, 99 Statutes at Large 1245, 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 the Department 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 United States Code
1606a(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.

INTRODUCTION: Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Safety Trust Fund
(Formerly Aquatic Resources Trust Fund)
The Aquatic Resources Trust Fund (ARTF) was
established on the books of the Treasury pursuant to the
Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 [Public Law 98-369, division
A, title X, section 1016(a), approved July 18, 1984]. The
ARTF was restructured and renamed the Sport Fish
Restoration and Boating Trust Fund by the Safe,
Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act:
A Legacy for Users or “SAFETEA-LU” [Public Law 10959, title XI, subtitle B, part 2, section 11115, approved
August 10, 2005,] as amended by the Sportfishing and
Recreational Boating Safety Amendments Act of 2005
[Public Law 109-74, approved September 29, 2005].
Funding of ARTF programs was extended several times
before a transportation bill was finally enacted—P.L. 109-14
(through June 30, 2005), P.L. 109-20 (through July 19,
2005), P.L. 109-35 (through July 21, 2005), P.L. 109-37
(through July 27, 2005), P.L. 109-40 (through July 30,
2005), and P.L. 109-42 (through August 14, 2005). P.L. 10959 (The Transportation Equity Act) comprehensively
amended and reauthorized the Sport Fish Restoration
Program to (beginning in fiscal year 2006) permanently
appropriate boat safety funding and modify distribution of
funds whereby all accounts will annually receive a fixed
percentage of the total fund revenue, eliminated the ARTF to
create a Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund, and
modified the excise tax on certain sport fishing equipment.
P.L. 109-74 funded sport fishing and boating safety
programs from the Highway Trust Fund through the end of
fiscal year 2006.

Effective October 1, 2005, motorboat fuel taxes (less $1
million transferred to the Land and Water Conservation
Fund) and small engine gasoline taxes [pursuant to the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, Public Law
101-508, title XI, section 11211(i)(2) and (3)] were
transferred from the Highway Trust Fund to the Sport Fish
Restoration and Boating Trust Fund. In addition, 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 fund.
Amounts in the trust fund are used, as provided by
appropriation acts, for the purposes of carrying out the
Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act, approved
August 9, 1950, the purposes of section 13106 of title 46,
United States Code, the purpose of section 7404)d) of the
Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, and the
Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act
(as amended by SAFETEA-LU).
When the provisions of 26 United States Code 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 United States
Code 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 section 8033 of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-509). It was made
effective on January 1, 1990, by section 7811(m)(3) of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 (Public Law
101-239) and amended by section 9001of the Oil Pollution
Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-380). The Energy Policy Act of
2005 (Public Law 109-58) reinstated the tax on petroleum to
ensure continued viability of the fund.
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 $2.7 billion.
Certain amounts were transferred from other funds and
were appropriated to the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund as

March 2007

provided by 26 United States Code 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 (Public Law 101-380).
When the provisions of 26 United States Code 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 United States
Code 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, I, 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.

Coupon issue—The issue of bonds or notes (public debt).

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.

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 2006, the
debt limit was $8,965,000 million; the limit may change from
year to year.

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 also may 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.)

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.

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 United States Code 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

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

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.)

and local governments as a means to invest proceeds from
their own tax-exempt financing. Interest rates and maturities
comply with IRS arbitrage provisions. SLGS 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.

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.

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.)

Reopening (PDO-3)—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 (SLGS) (FD-2)—Special
nonmarketable certificates, notes, and bonds offered to State

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), are sold at a
discount.
Trust fund transaction (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—
An intrabudgetary transaction in which both payments and
receipts occur within the same trust fund group.

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Midway
Island, Virgin Islands, Wake Island, and all other territories
and possessions.
