Profile of the Economy
(Office of Macroeconomic Analysis)
February 17, 2022
Introduction
The U.S. economy ended 2021 on a very strong note; real GDP growth accelerated sharply to 6.9
percent at an annual rate in the final quarter of 2021, supported by inventory investment, strong
export growth, and robust consumer spending on services (as the economy continued to reopen).
Given the pace of GDP growth in the fourth quarter, 2021 ended on a historic note with real
GDP growing 5.5 percent over the four quarters of the year, the fastest annual pace in 37 years.
It also now appears that the labor market approached full employment over the course of 2021.
Over the twelve months ending December 2021, the economy enjoyed the greatest number of job
gains on record as well as the fastest calendar-year drop in the unemployment rate. Labor force
participation began to rise again in the fourth quarter, which should alleviate some of the labor
market tightness that dominated 2021.
Meanwhile, a mismatch between supply and demand led inflation to rise substantially last year
and into this year. Yet a receding pandemic, weaker demand for goods, and easing supply
bottlenecks may ease inflationary pressure in 2022.
Following the very strong showing in the final quarter of 2021, a consensus of private forecasters
expects real GDP growth to decelerate to 1.8 percent at an annual rate in the first quarter of 2022.
On a fourth quarter over fourth quarter basis, GDP growth is expected to be 2.9 percent in 2022.
Economic Growth
According to the advance (first) estimate, real GDP growth accelerated sharply to 6.9 percent at
an annual rate in the final quarter of 2021, following a 2.3 percent gain in the third quarter.
Given the robust pace of growth in the fourth quarter, GDP at the end of 2021 was 5.5 percent
higher on a year-over-year basis, the strongest annual pace of growth since 1984.
Real private domestic final purchases (PDFP)—the sum of personal consumption, business fixed
investment, and residential investment—grew 2.8 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter,
after increasing 1.4 percent in the third quarter. PDFP growth in the second half of 2021 was
slower than in the first half—in the first quarter, PDFP surged by 11.8 percent and by 10.1
percent in the second. By this measure, demand has returned to pre-pandemic trend.
Real personal consumption expenditures (PCE)—the largest component of PDFP and roughly
two-thirds of real GDP—rose by 3.3 percent in the fourth quarter on an annualized basis,
accelerating from the 2.0 percent gain in the third quarter. The fourth-quarter print reflected
continued rotation of consumption from goods to services. Real purchases of durable goods
increased just 1.6 percent in the fourth quarter—held down by reduced purchases of motor
vehicles and household durable items – while nondurable goods PCE ticked down by 0.1

2

percent. Expenditures on services increased by 4.7 percent in the fourth quarter, propelled by
higher spending on health care and strong recovery in pandemic-sensitive sectors, such as
recreation and transportation services. Despite the rotation toward pre-pandemic consumption
patterns, the composition of PCE remains weighted more heavily toward goods than services—
as of the fourth quarter of 2021, PCE goods was still 15.4 percent higher than just before the
pandemic while PCE services was 0.4 percent lower.
Business fixed investment (BFI) increased by 2.0 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter,
following a 1.6 percent gain in the third quarter. Investment in structures continued to be a drag
on BFI growth, dropping by 11.4 percent in the third quarter. Investment in mining-related
structures, including oil and gas wells, rose in the fourth quarter as rising oil prices made
domestic rigs more profitable. Meanwhile, both equipment investment and investment in
intellectual property products increased in the fourth quarter—by 0.8 percent and 10.6 percent,
respectively.
Real residential investment—the third and final component of PDFP—slipped by 0.8 percent at
an annual rate in the fourth quarter, the third consecutive quarterly decrease. Rising construction
prices were partly responsible for the decrease in real investment. Although nominal residential
spending rose 8.6 percent on an annualized basis, the price index for residential construction
jumped by 9.5 percent. Higher construction costs have been driven in part by shortages of
materials and labor. However, residential investment remains well above pre-pandemic trend.
The change in private inventories (CIPI) was the strongest contributor to real GDP growth in the
fourth quarter, adding 4.9 percentage points. Unlike in the third quarter, the impetus to GDP
growth from CIPI was due to inventory build-up, rather than slower inventory draw down.
During the pandemic, inventories have been depleted to historically low levels. Between the first
quarter of 2020 and the third quarter of 2021, total real private inventories were drawn down by
over $81 billion (not annualized). The increase in the fourth quarter recovered only about half of
the loss. However, inventories for some industries remain very lean despite buildup in the fourth
quarter, such as retail motor vehicle inventories which recovered only 7 percent of the net
drawdown since the beginning of the pandemic. That is, inventories are stretched and restocking
needs have extended into the current year.
The trade deficit widened by $21.4 billion to $1338.0 billion in the fourth quarter; a change that
neither added nor subtracted from GDP growth. Total imports of goods and services jumped
17.7 percent at an annualized rate, while total exports of goods and services jumped 24.5 percent.
Over 60 percent of the increase in services exports was due to the return of international travel to
the United States.
Total government spending declined 2.9 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter, after
rising 0.9 percent in the third quarter. A 4.0 percent decline in federal spending drove the overall
pull-back, largely reflecting fewer purchases of defense-related intermediate goods. State and
local government consumption was down 2.2 percent at an annual rate in the fourth quarter; the
decrease reflected lower real spending on compensation for state and local government salaries
as well as less real investment in structures—which was significantly affected by rising
construction costs.

3

In sum, real GDP accelerated to 6.9 percent in the fourth quarter on an annualized basis. The
acceleration primarily reflected sizeable contributions from a private inventory build (4.9
percentage points) as well as increased consumer spending (2.3 percentage points) and business
fixed investment (0.3 percentage points). Government consumption and investment was the sole
significant drag on fourth quarter growth (-0.5 percentage points).

(Quarterly percent change at annual rate)

Labor Markets and Wages
Labor markets recovered markedly in 2021 and appear to be near full employment. The
economy added a net 6.67 million jobs in 2021, the largest number on record for a single year.
Growth continued at a strong pace in January 2022 as firms added 467,000 to payrolls. As a
result labor markets had reclaimed 87 percent of the total number of jobs lost in the first two
months of the pandemic.
As of January 2022, the unemployment rate was 4.0 percent, down 10.7 percentage points from
the pandemic high and just 0.5 percentage points above the half-century low achieved before the
pandemic. The broadest measure of labor market slack, known as the U-6 unemployment rate,
has also declined noticeably over the past several months; at 7.1 percent as of January 2022, the
U-6 is now roughly in line with pre-pandemic levels – just 0.3 percentage points above the prepandemic low of 6.8 percent observed in December 2019. Notable progress has also been made
over the past six months or so in reducing long-term unemployment: after climbing to a high of
2.6 percent in March 2021, the share of the labor force who were unemployed 27 weeks or more

4

has since declined, reaching 1.0 percent in January 2022—or 0.4 percentage points above the 0.6
percent rate seen in April 2020.
Throughout much of 2021, the headline labor force participation rate (LFPR) – as well as primeage (ages 25-54) LFPR – showed minimal to slow improvement, contributing to labor market
tightness. However, LFPR began to rise in the fourth quarter of 2021: in January, the headline
LFPR rose 0.3 percentage points to 62.2 percent, the highest level since March 2020, while the
prime-age LFPR was 82.0 percent, its highest level since March 2020.
Higher wages may be helping to draw workers back into the labor force. Over the past few
months, wage gains have been propelled by growth in lower-wage industries—such leisure and
hospitality. While total private production and nonsupervisory average hourly earnings were up
6.9 percent over the year ending in January, wages in the leisure and hospitality sector have
jumped by 13.0 percent over the past twelve months as employers have offered higher wages to
fill their job openings. The Employment Cost Index (ECI), which has is better at adjusting for
compositional changes of the labor force, tells a similar story. The ECI for private wages and
salaries advanced 5.0 percent over the four quarters ending in December 2021—almost double
the 2.8 percent gain over the four quarters through December 2020— and the ECI for leisure and
hospitality was up 8.9 percent over the year.
Due to strong paces of inflation in 2021, however, most industries have seen a decline in real
wages. As of January 2022, real average hourly earnings for production and nonsupervisory
workers were down 1.3 percent over the year. Even so, lower-wage industries have seen growth
in real wages: leisure and hospitality workers saw wage growth of 5.1 percent over the same
period after adjusting for inflation.

Nonfarm Productivity of Labor
Quarterly productivity growth rates have fluctuated markedly in recent quarters. After dropping
5.0 percent in the third quarter, productivity grew 6.6 percent in the final quarter of 2021,
reflecting a 9.2 percent surge in output, which more than offset a 2.4 percent increase in worker
hours. On a year-over-year basis, productivity growth rose 2.0 percent through the fourth quarter
of 2021, slowing somewhat from the 2.5 percent, four-quarter increase a year earlier.
Nominal hourly compensation costs in the nonfarm business sector rose 6.9 percent at an annual
rate in the fourth quarter of 2021, after increasing 3.9 percent in the previous quarter. On a yearover-year basis, hourly compensation costs rose at a solid 5.1 percent over the four most recent
quarters–albeit slower than the 8.5 percent, year-earlier pace. Unit labor costs, defined as the
average cost of labor per unit of output, were up 0.3 percent at an annual rate in the fourth
quarter, following a 9.3 percent surge in the third quarter. These costs were up 3.1 percent over
the most recent four quarters, decelerating from the 5.8 percent pace over the four quarters
ending in 2020’s fourth quarter.
Industrial Production, Manufacturing, and Services
Total industrial production trended higher in 2021 and into this year but production in key
industries was hindered by supply-chain disruptions — though recently, there have been some
signs that supply-chain problems may be easing. In January, output at factories, mines, and
utilities was up 1.4 percent over the month and 4.1 percent over the previous 12 months. The
gain in January elevated total industrial output to be 2.1 percent above pre-pandemic levels.

6

Manufacturing production, which accounts for about 74 percent of all industrial output, increased
0.2 percent in January and was 2.5 percent higher over the past year. Manufacturing output has
been hindered by shortages of input goods, particularly in the automotive sector. For several
months, production of motor vehicles and parts has been volatile, constrained in part by a global
shortage of semiconductors. For example, after a combined, nearly 13 percent increase in output
over October and November 2021, production declined in 0.4 percent in December and 0.9
percent in January. Over the year through January, automotive production was 6.2 percent
lower. Meanwhile, manufacturing output at select high-technology factories was unchanged
over the latest month but was up 5.3 percent over the past year. Excluding motor vehicles and
parts and high-technology industries, manufacturing output advanced 0.3 percent in January.
This measure was 3.2 percent higher over the past year.
Output at mines, which includes crude oil and natural gas extraction and accounts for 14 percent
of industrial output, rose 1.0 percent in January, largely due to increased activity in drilling and
mining support. Mining activity is sensitive to energy prices, and the increase in energy prices in
2021 has contributed to strong mining output growth. Over the year through January 2021,
mining output was up 8.2 percent.
Utilities output, the remaining 12 percent of total industrial output, jumped 9.9 percent in
January, due in part to increased heating demand from unusually cold temperatures. Weather is
usually a factor contributing to swings in this sector; unseasonable weather in months often
causes sharp swings in output from one month to the next. Over the 12 months through January,
utilities production was up 9.3 percent.
Measures of manufacturing and services business activity in the economy have recovered since
summer 2020 and have signaled expansion for over a year. In January 2022, the manufacturing
index stood at 57.6, indicating expansion in this sector for the twentieth consecutive month,
although this index has begun to decline in the past three months. Similarly, the ISM’s services
index rose to 68.4 in November 2021, an all-time high (series dates from July 1997), but
declined over the next two months to 59.9 in January 2022. The services index has signaled
expansion for twenty consecutive months.
Housing Markets
Throughout 2021, housing markets were marked by an imbalance between supply and demand,
driving rapid home price growth and eroding affordability. The Case-Shiller national house
price index—which measures sales prices of existing homes—was up 18.8 percent over the year
ending in November 2021, a sharp acceleration from the 9.5 percent and 3.4 percent rates seen in
November 2020 and November 2019, respectively. Moreover, in each of the past seven months,
year-over-year increases in both of these indices have run between 17 percent and 20 percent.
In the fourth quarter, however, there were positive signs for housing supply in coming quarters.
Single-family housing starts rose by a combined 9.8 percent from September to December 2021,
and single-family permits, which signal future starts, have increased by 8.4 percent over the
same period. In 2019 and 2020, construction of a new single-family home took about eight
months from authorization to completion (the estimated time-to-completion is not yet available

7

from the Census Bureau), suggesting fresh supply will come on to the market in 2022 and ease
some house price pressures. Indeed, the number of homes under construction at the end of 2021
is the highest since 2007. Moreover, surveys of homebuilders reflect optimism about the state of
the housing market. The National Association of Home Builder’s confidence index rose for the
fourth consecutive month in December, ending the year at 84, just 6 points shy of record high
reached in November 2020, before ticking down one point to 83 in January 2022.
Meanwhile, sales of homes trended lower at the end of 2021. In December, existing home
sales—which account for 90 percent of all home sales—declined 4.6 percent over the month and
were down 7.1 percent over the year. Although new single-family home sales rose by 11.9
percent in December, the level of sales was still down by 14.0 percent over the year. On net,
existing and new home sales were lower by around 600,000 over the year ending December
2021. The downtrend of existing home sales reflected in part very lean inventories. At the end
of December 2021, existing home inventories dropped to an all-time low of 910,000, dropping
by 14.7 percent over the year and equivalent to 1.8 months of sales. (Realtors consider a sevenmonth supply to be a balanced market.) By contrast, the inventory of new single-family homes
available for sale has moved closer to a balanced market. Inventories of new homes rose by 34.8
percent over the year to 403,000, equivalent to a 6.0-month supply.
Prices
Starting in early 2021, inflation rates began accelerating markedly, elevated by supply-chain
disruptions, persistently high demand for durable goods, rising food prices, a global energy
shortage, and (to a lesser extent) the reopening of sectors that had languished during the
pandemic—such as travel, leisure, and hospitality.
In January 2022, headline inflation – as measured by the consumer price index (CPI) – was 0.6
percent. Though still elevated, this was slower than the 0.9 percent rate seen last year in June
and October, which marked the fastest monthly pace since June 2008. Core inflation was also
0.6 percent in January, reflecting an acceleration in services prices, particularly for shelter, as
well as prices for new and used vehicles and other durable goods. On a year-over-year basis,
headline and core inflation readings were at four-decade highs in January: CPI inflation was 7.5
percent, and core inflation was 6.0 percent. Twelve-month core inflation has remained above 4.0
percent for eight consecutive months. Energy and food prices remain quite elevated: the energy
price index was up 27.0 percent over the year through January, while food price inflation was 7.0
percent over the past 12 months.
The headline Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index (the preferred measure for
the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC)’s 2-percent inflation target) rose 5.8 percent over
the year through December 2021 (fastest pace since June 1982), while core PCE inflation was
4.9 percent (fastest since September 1983). Prior to March 2021, inflation as measured by the
PCE price index had held below the FOMC’s target since November 2018, which contributed to
the FOMC adopting a new inflation regime. The flexible average inflation target regime would
allow for inflation to exceed 2 percent for some period, such that PCE inflation would average 2
percent over time.

8

Consumer Prices
(Percent change from a year earlier)

Consumer and Business Sentiment
The Reuters/Michigan consumer sentiment index has trended much lower since April 2021,
falling to 61.7 by the early-February survey—that is, it is now 10.1 points below the pandemic
low reached in April 2020. The ongoing decline in the last several months has reflected renewed
concerns among consumers about the impact of the Delta and the Omicron variants on the
economy and about the persistence of significant inflationary pressures in many sectors of the
economy, as well as recently-emerged concerns about geopolitical challenges and their
implications for oil prices.
The Conference Board’s consumer confidence index has followed a different path. The
confidence index began a noticeable uptrend in March 2021; by June 2021, it had risen to
128.9, only 3.7 points below its pre-pandemic level. Since then, the index has stabilized at a
lower level: it averaged 112.9 over the past six months, and stood at 113.8 in January, or
28.1 points above the pandemic low.
On the business side, the National Federation of Independent Business’s (NFIB) small business
optimism index has recovered noticeably since the initial months of the pandemic, with the index
rising to 104.0 last October (or only 0.5 points below its level in February 2020). Since October,
however, it has since trended lower and, as of January 2022, had fallen to 97.1, its lowest reading
since early 2021.

9

Federal Budget Deficit and Debt
The federal government’s deficit and debt were trending higher before the pandemic but rose
sharply following the multiple fiscal responses to combat the pandemic’s effects on the
economy. At the end of fiscal year 2021, the federal government’s budget deficit was $2.78
trillion (12.4% of GDP); although down from $3.13 trillion (15.0% of GDP) at the end of fiscal
year 2020, the deficit was still $1.79 trillion higher than in fiscal year 2019. Federal receipts
totaled $4.05 trillion in fiscal year 2021, up $626 billion (18.3%) from fiscal year 2020. Net
outlays for fiscal year 2021 were $6.82 trillion, up $266 billion (4.1%) from fiscal year 2020,
primarily due to the extensive fiscal measures enacted in late 2020 and early 2021 to counter the
pandemic’s effects on low- and middle-income households and small businesses.
At the end of fiscal year 2021, gross federal debt was $28.4 trillion, up from $26.9 trillion at the
end of fiscal year 2020. The Treasury’s borrowing limit was raised to $28.89 trillion in midOctober 2021. Federal debt held by the public, which includes debt held by the Federal Reserve
but excludes federal debt held by government agencies, rose from $21.0 trillion at the end of
fiscal year 2020 (100.3% of GDP) to $22.3 trillion by the end of fiscal year 2021 (99.7% of
GDP).

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 earnedincome 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 900-922)] 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

11
on both on- and off-budget receipts, outlays and deficit of
the Government.
Tables FFO-1, FFO-2, and FFO-3 are published
quarterly and cover 5 years of data, estimates for 2 years,
detail for 13 months, and fiscal year-to-date data. They
provide a summary of data relating to Federal fiscal
operations reported by Federal entities and disbursing
officers, and daily reports from the 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.

Budget Results and Financing of the U.S. Government
and First-Quarter Receipts by Source
[Source: Office of Tax Analysis, Office of Tax Policy]

The following capsule analysis of budget receipts, by
source, for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022
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 $535.4 billion for the first
quarter of Fiscal Year 2022. This is an increase of $188.4
billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Withheld
receipts increased by $184.7 billion and non-withheld
receipts increased by $8.2 billion during this period.
Refunds increased by $4.4 billion over the comparable
Fiscal Year 2021 quarter. There was a decrease of $1.6
billion in accounting adjustments between individual income
tax receipts and the Social Security and Medicare trust funds
over the comparable quarter in Fiscal Year 2021.
Corporate income taxes—Net corporate income tax
receipts were $98.7 billion for the first quarter of Fiscal Year
2022. This is an increase of $29.8 billion compared to the
prior year first quarter. The $29.8 billion change is
comprised of an increase of $25.2 billion in estimated and
final payments, and a decrease of $4.6 billion in corporate
refunds.

Employment taxes and contributions—Employment
taxes and contributions receipts for the first quarter of Fiscal
Year 2022 were $318.1 billion, an increase of $12.0 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 $3.6 billion, $0.6 billion, and $3.4 billion
respectively.
There was a $4.5
billion accounting
adjustment for prior years employment tax liabilities made
in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022. There was a $6.1
billion adjustment in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2021.
Unemployment insurance—Unemployment insurance
receipts, net of refunds, for the first quarter of Fiscal Year
2022 were $15.5 billion, an increase of $6.2 billion over the
comparable quarter of Fiscal Year 2021. Net State taxes
deposited in the U.S. Treasury increased by $5.9 billion to
$14.7 billion. Net Federal Unemployment Tax Act taxes
increased by $0.2 billion to $0.8 billion.
Contributions for other insurance and retirement—
Contributions for other retirement were $1.6 billion for the
first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022. This was an increase of
$0.1 billion from the comparable quarter of Fiscal Year
2021.

12
Excise taxes—Net excise tax receipts for the first
quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 were $20.5 billion, an increase
of $4.8 billion over the comparable prior year quarter. Total
excise tax refunds for the quarter were $0.6 billion, not a
significant change over the comparable prior year quarter.
Estate and gift taxes—Net estate and gift tax receipts
were $6.6 billion for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022.
These receipts represent an increase of $0.4 billion over the
same quarter in Fiscal Year 2021.

Customs duties—Customs duties net of refunds were
$23.8 billion for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022. This
is an increase of $5.6 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter.
Miscellaneous receipts—Net miscellaneous receipts
for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 were $31.7 billion,
an increase of $1.2 billion over the comparable prior year
quarter. This change is due in part to deposits of earnings by
Federal Reserve banks increasing by $3.7 billion.

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 Bureau of the Fiscal Service 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: Bureau of the Fiscal Service 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.
The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is a new bureau within
the Treasury Department, formed on October 7, 2012, from
the consolidation of the Financial Management Service and
the Bureau of the Public Debt. Our mission is to promote the
financial integrity and operational efficiency of the U.S.
government through exceptional accounting, financing,
collections, payments, and shared services. As one bureau,
the organization is better positioned to help transform
financial management and the delivery of shared services in
the federal government. The bureau will be a valued partner
for agencies as they work to strengthen their own financial
management or as they look for a quality service provider
who can allow them to focus on their missions.

Table PDO-1 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. High rates on accepted tenders and the dollar value of
total bids are presented, with the dollar value of awards made
on both competitive and noncompetitive basis.
To encourage the participation of individuals and smaller
institutions, Treasury accepts noncompetitive tenders of up to
$5 million in each auction of securities.
Table PDO-2 lists the results of auctions of marketable
securities, other than weekly bills, in chronological order over
the past 2 years. Issues of cash management bills also are
presented.
Note: On July 31, 2013, Treasury published amendments
to its marketable securities auction rules to accommodate the
auction and issuance of Floating Rate Notes (FRNs). An FRN
is a security that has an interest payment that can change over
time. Treasury FRNs will be indexed to the most recent 13week Treasury bill auction High Rate, which is the highest
accepted discount rate in a Treasury bill auction. FRNs will
pay interest quarterly.

TREASURY FINANCING: OCTOBER-DECEMBER
[Source: Bureau of the Fiscal Service, Division of Financing Operations]

OCTOBER
Auction of 119-Day Cash Management Bills
On September 28, 2021, Treasury announced it would auction $30,000 million of 119-day bills. They
were issued October 5 and will mature February 1, 2022. The issue was to raise new cash of
approximately $30,000 million. Treasury auctioned the bills on September 29. Tenders totaled $87,712
million; Treasury accepted $30,000 million, including $2 million of noncompetitive tenders from the

INTRODUCTION: Ownership of Federal Securities
Federal securities presented in the following tables are
public debt securities such as savings bonds, bills, notes, and
bonds that the Treasury issues. The tables also detail debt
issued by other Federal agencies under special financing
authorities. [See the Federal debt (FD) tables for a more
complete description of the Federal debt.]
Effective January 1, 2001, Treasury’s Bureau of the
Fiscal Service 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 Bureau of the Fiscal Service compiles data in
the “Treasury Bulletin” table OFS-1 from the “Monthly
Statement of the Public Debt of the United States.” Effective
June 2001, Bureau of the Fiscal Service revised procedures
and categories in this table to agree with the Bureau of the
Fiscal Service’s publication changes.

 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.)

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.

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, September, 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.

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 reports. Tables I-3
through VI-3 present quarterly consolidated currency data
reported by large market participants that do not file weekly
reports. The information in the tables referenced above is
based on the reports referenced in this Introduction: Foreign
Currency Positions and is not audited by the Federal Reserve
banks or the Treasury Department.
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.
The data reported herein may occasionally differ with
respect to time periods noted in prior issues of this Bulletin
due to revisions from reporting market participants that arise
from quality assurance controls.

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.
Section 4027 of H.R. 748, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,
and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), enacted on
March 27, 2020, as Pub. Law 116-136, appropriated $500
billion to the ESF. The Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2021 and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, 2021,
subsequently rescinded $479 billion and $1.4 billion,
respectively, of the $500 billion appropriation provided to
Treasury.
Resources of the fund include (a) Fund Balance, which is
available to support subsidy costs for loan modifications and
expenditures for administrative expenses in support of the
CARES Act, (b) U.S. Government securities (dollar
balances), (c) special drawing rights -SDRs, and (d) foreign
currencies. Principal sources of income -+ or loss -- for the
fund are profits -+ or losses -- on SDRs and foreign
exchange, and interest earned on U.S Government, foreign
securities, and SDRs.

•
Table ESF-1 presents the assets, liabilities, and
capital of the fund. The figures are in U.S. dollars. Amounts
and transactions pertaining to foreign currencies and special
drawing rights, an international reserve asset created by the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) to supplement its
member countries’ position in the Fund, have been
converted to U.S. dollars based on current exchange rates
computed according to the accrual method of accounting.
Investments and loans receivable are reported at cost. 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. The
additional appropriated capital represents the amount
appropriated under the CARES Act Sec 4027 minus
transfers, expenditures for administrative and subsidy costs,
and rescissions resulting from the passage of the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 and the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, 2021. Conversion
gains and losses are reflected in the cumulative net income + or loss -- account.
•
Table ESF-2 shows the results of operations for the
current quarter and year-to-date. Figures are in U.S. dollars
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. CARES Act related
administrative costs incurred in connection with the loans,
and other investments are accrued.

1 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.

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.”

INTRODUCTION: Airport and Airway Trust Fund
The Airport and Airway Trust Fund was established on
the books of the Department of Treasury in fiscal year
1971, according to provisions of the Airport and Airway
Revenue Act of 1970 [49 United States Code 1742(a),
repealed]. The Tax Equity 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
FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-254),
effective October 5, 2018, extended the aviation excise
taxes until October 1, 2023. The Act included provisions
that:
 Retained the existing passenger ticket, flight
segment, and freight waybill taxes. The domestic flight
segment tax is indexed to the Consumer Price Index;
effective calendar year 2022, the tax is $4.50. It also
retained a special rule applied to flights between the
continental United States and Alaska or Hawaii. This
departure tax is indexed to the Consumer Price Index;
effective calendar year 2022, the tax is $9.90.
 Retained the existing tax per person for
international flights that begin or end in the United States.
The tax is indexed to the Consumer Price Index; effective
calendar year 2022, the tax is $19.70.
 Retained the existing tax on payments to airlines
for frequent flyer and similar awards by banks and credit
card companies, merchants and frequent flyer program
partners, such as other airlines, hotels and rental car
companies, and other businesses. The tax on mileage
awards is 7.5% of the value of the miles.

 Retained the commercial aviation fuel tax and the
general aviation jet fuel/gas taxes. The current tax rate for
commercial aviation fuel is 4.3 cents per gallon and 19.3
cents per gallon for general aviation gas. General aviation
jet fuel is 21.8 cents per gallon.
The FAA Modernization and Reform Act 2012 imposed
a new surtax on fuel used in aircraft that is part of a
fractional ownership program; the surtax applies to fuel
used after March 31, 2012. Currently this is a 14.1 cents
per gallon surcharge of fuel used in fractional ownership
flights. It also changed the classification of transportation as
part of a fractional ownership program from commercial
aviation to noncommercial aviation.
The FAA Modernization and Reform Act 2012 also
repealed the excise tax exemption for transportation by
small jet aircraft operating on non- established lines. (IRS
defines the term “operated on an established line” to mean
operated with some degree of regularity between definite
points). This was changed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
(Public Law 115-97), which exempts certain payments
related to the management of private aircraft from the
excise taxes imposed on taxable transportation by air.
Excise tax collections resumed in January of 2021 after
being suspended in late March 2020 with enactment of the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES)
Act (Public Law 116-136). This “tax holiday” from March
to December 2020 along with lower levels of aviation
activity caused by the pandemic severely depleted the
balance of the AATF. To reduce the impact of the CARES
Act, Congress transferred $14 billion from the general fund
of the Treasury to the AATF in the Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2021 and Other Extensions Act (Public
Law 116-159). This has ensured that the AATF remains
solvent while excise tax collections continue to recover.
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).

INTRODUCTION: Uranium Enrichment
Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) Fund
The Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and
Decommissioning Fund was established on the books of the
Treasury in fiscal year (FY) 1993, in accordance with
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 include (1) decontaminating
and decommissioning three gaseous diffusion plants (Oak
Ridge, Tennessee; Paducah, Kentucky; and Portsmouth,
Ohio), (2) remedial actions and related environmental
restoration cost at the gaseous diffusion plants, and (3)
reimbursement to uranium/thorium producers for the cost 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
consistent with the needs of the fund and (2) bearing interest
at rates determined appropriate, taking into consideration the
current average market yield on outstanding marketable
obligations of the United States with remaining periods to
maturity comparable to these investments.
Annually, the Secretary of the Treasury, after
consultation with the Secretary of Energy, is required to
provide a report to Congress (see 42 USC 2297g(b)(1)).
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 USC 2297g-1, as
amended) authorized annual deposits to the fund of $518.2
million (before adjustments for inflation) over a 15-year
period. Funding was provided by fees assessed on domestic

public utilities that purchased enriched uranium and
Government contributions. As specified in the Act, annual
assessments from domestic public utilities (before
adjustment for inflation) were not to exceed $150 million.
The Government was responsible for the remainder ($369.6
million), adjusted for inflation.
While the final utility assessments occurred in (FY)
2007, during the same period (i.e., between FYs 1993 and
2007), the Government contributed only $5,362.4 million of
the $6,281.0 million specified in the Act. This resulted in a
$918.6 million shortfall of the authorized Government
contributions. The Government continued to make annual
contributions to eliminate this shortfall. Through the FY
2009 contribution, the overall shortfall (after adjusting for
inflation) was $40.6 million. Also, during FY 2009, the
Government designated $390 million of American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding for the Fund’s
mission. While ARRA funding was not an actual deposit
into the fund’s invested balances, it provided a dollar-fordollar reduction in the required outlays from the invested
balances. The Department of Energy recognized the ARRA
funding as an offset to the Government’s contribution
shortfall, thereby, satisfying the Government’s contribution
responsibility.
While the last appropriation was made in FY 2017 when
Congress appropriated $563 million, beginning in FY 2018,
Congress authorized transferring funds from other accounts.
In FY 2018, funds of about $860.6 million were transferred.
In FY 2021, Congress authorized the transfer of
$291 million from the United States Enrichment Corporation
Fund.

INTRODUCTION: Black Lung Disability Trust Fund
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 95227). 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,
extended the temporary increase in the coal tax through
December 31, 2013.
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008
(Public Law 110-343, title I, subtitle B, section 113), enacted
October 3, 2008, restructured the Trust Fund Debt by 1)
refinancing the outstanding principal of the repayable
advances and unpaid interest on such advances and 2)
providing a onetime appropriation to the Trust Fund in an
amount sufficient to pay to the general fund of the Treasury
the difference between the market value of the outstanding
repayable advances, plus accrued interest and the proceeds
from the obligations issued by the Trust Fund to the
Secretary of the Treasury. The Act also extends the

temporary increase in the coal tax through December 31,
2018, and allows the prepayment of the Trust Fund debt
prior to the maturity date. In 2019 the excise tax was
reduced by more than 50% until Congress restored the
temporary higher rates for 2020 and again for 2021.
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.

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 appropriations acts for making
expenditures to carry out section 210(a) of the Water
Resources Development Act of 1986, as amended by the
Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2014
(Public Law 113-121, June 10, 2014), the Water
Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation (WIIN) Act
(Public Law 114-322, December 16, 2016) and the Water
Resources Development Act of 2020 (Public Law 116-260,
December 27, 2020).
The appropriations act for the Department of
Transportation (DOT) for fiscal year 1995 (Public Law 103331, 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 the 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 tax unconstitutional under the
Export Clause of the Constitution (Article I, section 9, clause
5) and enjoined the Customs and Border Protection from
collecting the fee on exports.
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 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 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 five fiscal years.

INTRODUCTION: Hazardous Substance Superfund
The Hazardous Substance Response Trust Fund was
established on the books of the Treasury in fiscal year 1981,
in accordance with section 221 of the Hazardous Substance
Response Revenue Act of 1980 [42 United States Code
9631(a), repealed]. The trust fund was renamed the
Hazardous Substance Superfund (Superfund) and relocated
in accordance with section 517 of the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 [Public Law
99-499, dated October 17, 1986 (26 United States Code
9507)].
The authority to collect excise taxes on petroleum and
chemicals, and an environmental tax for all corporations
with modified alternative taxable income in excess of $2
million expired in 1995. On November 15, 2021, the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA, Public Law
117-58) reinstated and modified the taxes on hazardous
chemicals and imported substances that use hazardous
chemicals as feedstock. The taxes shall take effect beginning
July 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2031. In addition,
the taxes collected from the prior year will be available in
the budget year without further appropriation.
To further implement the Superfund program, amounts
are appropriated from the start of year balance of the
Superfund (augmented as necessary by general revenues) to

the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for
programmatic and administrative expenses.
In 2015, the EPA implemented a Hazardous Substance
Superfund Trust Fund Receipt Account for Special Accounts
that were previously accounted for as off-setting collections.
Settlement funds received by the Agency now flow through
the receipt account to be placed in EPA interest bearing
special accounts to perform response actions at the site in
accordance with the supporting settlement agreement. Due
to large settlements EPA received in fiscal year 2015, the
EPA developed this new process for managing its Special
Accounts. The Special Account subaccount to the Superfund
Trust Fund was established as a mechanism for Special
Account funds to be placed directly into the trust fund, and
begin earning interest upon receipt. Monthly, the U.S.
Department of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Services
will prepare separate financial statements for the Special
Accounts subaccount within the Superfund Trust Fund
financial statements.
An annual report to Congress by the Secretary of
Treasury is required by 26 United States Code 9602(a).
These reports present the financial condition of the
Superfund and the results of operation for the past fiscal
year, and its expected condition during the next 5 fiscal
years.

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. The Infrastructure
Investment and Jobs Act extends through September 30,
2026, the authority to make expenditures from the Highway
Trust Fund for authorized purposes. After that date,
expenditures from the Trust Fund are authorized only to
liquidate obligations made before that date. Any other
expenditure will cause the cessation of deposits of highwayuser taxes to the Trust Fund. [IIJA § 80101, 26 U.S.C.
9503].
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 Highway Account of 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.
The Highway Trust Fund’s Mass Transit Account is
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 102240), the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century
(TEA-21), SAFETEA-LU, Moving Ahead for Progress in
the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), Fixing America’s Surface
Transportation (FAST) Act and as amended by the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). The
remaining excise taxes are included in a separate account

within the 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.
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.

INTRODUCTION: Inland Waterways Trust Fund
The Inland Waterways Trust Fund was established by the
Treasury, pursuant to section 203 of the Inland Waterways
Revenue Act of 1978 (Public Law 95-502) 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. The passage
of the Achieving a Better Life Experience Act (Public Law
113-295) in December 2014 increased the tax from 20 cents to
29 cents per gallon effective April 1, 2015. 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 Water Resources Development Act of 2020 (Public
Law 116-260, December 27, 2020) specified that the cost

sharing percent from the trust fund be 35 percent for the
Fiscal Years 2021 to 2031.
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 five 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 13163I
and 13242(d)(42) of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1993 (Public Law 103-66, dated August 10, 1993), section
1033 of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (Public Law 105-34,
dated August 5, 1997), section 1362 of the Energy Policy Act
of 2005 (Public Law 109-058, dated August 8, 2005) section
141 (c) of the Surface and Air Transportation Programs
Extension Act of 2011 (Public Law 112-30, dated September
11, 2011), sections 40101(c) and 40201 of the Moving Ahead
for Progress in the 21st Century Act (Public Law 112-141,
dated July 6, 2012), sections 2001(c), 2002(b) and 2002(c) of
the Highway and Transportation Funding Act of 2014 (Public
Law 113-159, dated August 8, 2014), and section 31203 of the

Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act of
2015 (Public Law 114-94, dated December 4, 2015).
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
five 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 10222I]. Receipts
represent fees collected from public utilities based on
electricity generated by nuclear power reactors and spent
nuclear fuel, investment income, and Interest on investment.
Expenditures from the fund are for purposes of radioactive
waste disposal activities.
The NWPA requires the civilian owners and generators
of nuclear waste to pay their share of the full cost of the
NWF and, to that end, establishes a fee for electricity
generated and sold by civilian nuclear power reactors which
the Department must collect and annually assess to
determine its adequacy. A one-time fee was recorded by the
NWF as of April 7, 1983, related to the disposal of SNF
generated prior to that date. Fees recognized by the NWF
are based upon kilowatt (kWh) of electricity generated and
sold by civilian nuclear reactors on and after April 7, 1983.
The Department set the per kWh portion of the fee to zero in
2014.

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. The interest rates
take 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 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.
The FY2021 Appropriation Bill appropriated $27.5M for
nuclear waste disposal activities to carry out the purposes of
the NWPA of 1982. Of the total appropriated, $7.5M was
derived from the Nuclear Waste Fund to use for Nuclear
Waste Fund Oversight Activities.

INTRODUCTION: Reforestation Trust Fund
The Reforestation Trust Fund (16 US Code 1606a) was
established in fiscal year 1981 according to provisions of
Title III—Reforestation, of the Recreational Boating Safety
and Facilities Improvement Act of 1980 [Public Law 96451. Public Law 99-190, Title II provided permanent
authorization of the Trust Fund. Public Law 117-58, Title III
eliminated the cap (previously set at $30 million annually).
The act provides that the Secretary of the Treasury shall
transfer to the trust fund an amount equal to the sum of the
tariffs received in the Treasury after January 1, 1989, under
headings 4401 through 4412 and subheadings 4418.50.00,
4418.90.20, 4420.10.00, 4420.90.80, 4421.90.10 through
4421.90.20, and 4421.90.70 of chapter 44, subheadings
6808.00.00 and 6809.11.00 of chapter 68 and subheading
9614.10.00 of chapter 96 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States. Tariffs include (1) rough and primary
wood products and wood waste; (2) lumber, flooring and
moldings; and (3) wood veneers, plywood, other woodveneer assemblies and building boards and other wood
product tariff headings specified in Public L 100-418.
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 other
forest stand improvement activities to enhance forest health
and reduce hazardous fuel loads of forest stands in the
National Forest System and (2) administrative costs of the
Government for these activities.
Annual reports are required by 16 United States Code
1606aI (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 Trust Fund
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 109-59, 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].
Section 3 of the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration
Act, 16 United States Code 777, provides authorization of
appropriations to the states to carry out the provisions of the
act, and Section 4 provides the division of the remaining
annual appropriation not authorized in Section 3.
SAFETEA-LU comprehensively amended Section 3 and
reauthorized the Sport Fish Restoration Program (for fiscal
years 2006-2009) to permanently appropriate boating safety
funds; to modify distribution of funds whereby all accounts
receive a fixed percentage of the total fund annually; and to
modify the excise tax on certain sport fishing equipment.
From October 1, 2010, through June 30, 2012, the authority
for SAFETEA-LU was extended via several public laws. In
June 2012, Public Law 112-141, Moving Ahead for Progress
in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), established new authority
for Section 4 through September 30, 2014. From October 1,
2015, through November 20, 2015, the authority for MAP21 was extended via several public laws. On December 4,
2015, Public Law 114-94, Fixing America's Surface
Transportation (FAST) Act, Sec. 10001, amended Section 3
and Section 4 to provide the division of appropriations for
each of the Fiscal Years 2016 thru 2021. On November 15,

2021, Public Law 117-58, the Infrastructure Investment and
Jobs Act, Sec. 28001, amended 16 USC 777b and 16 USC
777c to provide the division of appropriations through Fiscal
Year 2026.
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, sections 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; Section 7404(d) of the Transportation
Equity Act for the 21st Century; and the Coastal Wetlands
Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (each as in effect
on the date of enactment of the Infrastructure Investment and
Jobs Act).
The general provisions of 26 United States Code 9602(b)
are responsible for making amounts available in the fund
exceeding outlay requirements to be invested in public debt
securities with the interest credited to the fund.
As required by 26 United States Code 9602(a), annual
reports to Congress must be submitted by the Secretary of
the Treasury. These reports will cover the financial condition
and results of operations of the fund during the past fiscal
year and those expected during the next five fiscal years.

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

the barrel tax on petroleum from five cents per barrel to eight
cents from 2009 through 2016, and to nine cents in 2017. The
act also repeals the requirement that the tax be suspended
when the unobligated balance exceeds $2.7 billion. The barrel
tax expired on December 31, 2018, but reinstated on January
1, 2020. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (Public

Law 116-260) which amended 26 USC 4611 (f) to extend
the OSLTF tax until Dec 31, 2025. 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.
Certain amounts were transferred from other funds and
were appropriated to the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund as
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).

INTRODUCTION: Agriculture Disaster Relief Trust Fund
The Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, P.L.
110-246, authorized the implementation of the Supplemental
Agricultural Disaster Assistance Program under Sections
12033 and 15001. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012
provided authority for discretionary funds to be used to
execute several of the disaster programs for fiscal year 2013,
but no funds were appropriated. Using funds from the
Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund, established under
section 902 of the Trade Act of 1974, the program is
administered by the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA).
Funds from the Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund
were used to make payments to farmers and ranchers under
the following five disaster assistance programs:
Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments (SURE)
Program; Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP);
Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP); Tree Assistance

Program (TAP); and Emergency Assistance for Livestock,
Honey Bees, and Farm-Raised Fish (ELAP) Program.
Fiscal Year 2021 obligations, including adjustments to
prior year obligations, totaled $45,040. Total net outlays
were $663 million including outlays from prior year
obligations, as shown in the table below. In 2021, the
amount of customs receipts credited to the Agricultural
Disaster Relief Trust Fund receipt account totaled $0. The
outlays reported in fiscal year 2021 are due to residual
payments, corrections, and/or appeals to obligations incurred
for crop years 2008 – 2011.
The Agriculture Act of 2014 shifted the funding
authority for disaster programs from the Agricultural
Disaster Relief Trust Fund to USDA’s Commodity Credit
Corporation.

INTRODUCTION: Patient Centered Outcomes Research Trust Fund
The Patient Centered Outcomes Research Trust Fund
(PCORTF) was created on the books of the Treasury by
section 9511 of the Internal Revenue Act of 1986 (Public
Law 111-148, 124 STAT 742, approved March 23, 2010).
Additional legislative citation related to this is the Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, Section 104,
Extension of Appropriations to the Patient-Centered
Outcomes Research Trust Fund, Extension of Certain Health
Insurance Fees (Public Law 116-94, approved December 20,
2019, which amends Section 9511 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986) extended the PCORTF to FY 2029. General
fund appropriations, transfers from the Federal Hospital
Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal Supplementary
Medical Insurance Trust Fund, and Fees related to health
insurance and self-insurance plans are appropriated into the
trust fund until fiscal year 2029. These appropriations are the
source of funds for the established nonprofit corporation
known as the “Patient-Centered Outcomes Research
Institute” which is neither an agency nor establishment of
the United States Government.
For fiscal year 2010, and each subsequent fiscal year to
2029, amounts in the PCORTF are available without further
appropriation, to the Institute to carry out clinical
effectiveness research. The purpose of the Institute is to
assist patients, clinicians, purchasers, and policy makers in
making informed health decisions by advancing the quality
and relevance of evidence concerning the manner in which
diseases, disorders, and other health conditions can
effectively, and appropriately be prevented, diagnosed,
treated, monitored, and managed through research and

evidence synthesis that considers variations in patient
subpopulations, and the dissemination of research findings
with respect to the relative health outcomes, clinical
effectiveness, and appropriateness of the medical treatments,
and services.
Twenty percent of the amounts appropriated or credited
to the PCORTF shall be transferred for each of the fiscal
years 2011 through 2029 to the Secretary of Health and
Human Services to carry out section 937 of the Public
Health Services Act. Of the amounts transferred, with
respect to a fiscal year, the Secretary of Health and Human
Services shall distribute:
 80 percent to the Office of Communication and
Knowledge Transfer of the Agency for Healthcare Research
and Quality to carry out activities described in section 937 of
the Public Health Services Act, and
 20 percent to the Secretary to carry out the activities
described in section 937.
No amounts shall be available for expenditure from the
PCORTF after September 30, 2029, and any amounts
remaining in the trust fund after such date shall be
transferred to the general fund of the Treasury.
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.

INTRODUCTION: United States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund

The Justice for United States Victims of State Sponsored
Terrorism Act, 34 U.S.C. § 20144, formerly codified at 42
U.S.C. § 10609 (2015) (the “Act”), established the United
States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund (the
“Fund”). The Act provides for the establishment and
administration of the Fund to provide compensation to
certain U.S. persons who were injured in acts of state
sponsored terrorism. In general, the Fund awards
compensation to those victims of international state
sponsored terrorism who (1) have secured final judgments in
a United States district court against a state sponsor of
terrorism under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, or
(2) were held hostage at the United States Embassy in
Tehran, Iran from 1979 to 1981 (and their spouses and
children).
The Act also sets forth the Fund’s sources of funding,
including a single appropriation of $1.025 billion for the
Fund in fiscal year 2017. 34 U.S.C. § 20144(e)(5). Further,
amounts in the Fund shall be available, without further
appropriation, for the payment of eligible claims and
compensation of the Special Master in accordance with the
Act. The Act also establishes that the Fund shall be managed
and invested in the same manner as a trust fund under
section 9602 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
34 U.S.C. §§ 20144(e)(3) & (e)(4).
In addition, the Act mandates that certain penalties and
fines, including forfeiture proceeds, be deposited into the
Fund if “forfeited or paid to the United States after
December 18, 2015,” the date of the Act’s enactment.
34 U.S.C. § 20144(e)(2). The Act provides that the
following shall be deposited or transferred into the Fund: (1)
All funds, and the net proceeds from the sale of property,
forfeited or paid to the United States after December 18,
2015 as a criminal penalty or fine arising from a violation of
any license, order, regulation, or prohibition issued under the
International
Emergency
Economic
Powers
Act
(50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et seq.) or the Trading with the Enemy
Act (50 U.S.C. App. §§ 1 et seq.), or any related criminal
conspiracy, scheme, or other Federal offense arising from
the actions of, or doing business with or acting on behalf of,
a state sponsor of terrorism. (2) Fifty percent of all funds,
and fifty percent of the net proceeds from the sale of

property, forfeited or paid to the United States between
December 18, 2015 and November 20, 2019 and seventyfive percent of all funds, and seventy-five percent of the net
proceeds from the sale of property, forfeited or paid to the
United States beginning November 21, 2019, the date of the
enactment of the United States Victims of State Sponsored
Terrorism Fund Clarification Act, as a civil penalty or fine
arising from a violation of any license, order, regulation, or
prohibition issued under the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et seq.) or the
Trading with the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. App. §§ 1 et seq.),
or any related conspiracy, scheme, or other Federal offense
arising from the actions of, or doing business with or acting
on behalf of, a state sponsor of terrorism. (3) Generally, if
the United States receives a final judgment forfeiting the
properties and related assets identified in the proceedings
captioned as In Re 650 Fifth Avenue & Related Properties,
No. 08 Civ. 10934 (S.D.N.Y. filed Dec. 17, 2008), the net
proceeds (not including the litigation expenses and sales
costs incurred by the United States) resulting from the sale
of such properties and related assets by the United States.
34 U.S.C. § 20144(e)(2).
The Act further provides that the Fund will make its last
obligations no later than January 2, 2039. Thus, the Fund
may continue to accumulate funds until that time.
Effective on the day after all amounts authorized to be
paid from the Fund under [the Act] that were obligated
before January 2, 2039 are expended, any unobligated
balances in the Fund shall be transferred, as appropriate, to
either the Department of the Treasury Forfeiture Fund
established under section 9705 of title 31, United States
Code, or to the Department of Justice Assets Forfeiture
Fund, established under section 524(c)(1) of title 28, United
States Code. 34 U.S.C. § 20144(e)(6)(B).
Annual reports to Congress, required by section 9602(a)
of title 26, United States Code, 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 five fiscal years.

Glossary
With References to Applicable Sections and Tables
Source: Bureau of the Fiscal Service

Amounts outstanding and in circulation (USCC)—Includes
all issues by the Bureau of the Mint purposely intended as a
medium of exchange. Coins sold by the Bureau of the Mint at
premium prices are excluded; however, uncirculated coin sets
sold at face value plus handling charge are included.
Average discount rate (PDO-1, -2)—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-1)—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.)

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.
Pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3101(b). By the Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2018 and Bipartisan Budget Act, 2018,
Public Law 115-119, the Statutory Debt Limit was suspended
through March 1, 2019.
Discount—The interest deducted in advance when purchasing
notes or bonds. (See Accrued discount.)
Discount rate (PDO-1)—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
issues. The Federal Reserve note is the only class of currency
currently issued.

Currency no longer issued (USCC)—Old and new series
gold and silver certificates, Federal Reserve notes, national
bank notes, and 1890 Series Treasury notes.

Foreign-targeted issue (PDO-2)—Foreign-targeted issues
were notes sold between October 1984 and February 1986 to
foreign institutions, foreign branches of U.S. institutions,
foreign central banks or monetary authorities, or to
international organizations in which the United States held
membership. Sold as companion issues, they could be
converted to domestic (normal) Treasury notes with the same
maturity and interest rates. Interest was paid annually.

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

Government account series (FD-2)—Certain trust fund
statutes require the Secretary of the Treasury to apply monies
held by these funds toward the issuance of nonmarketable
special securities. These securities are sold directly by

Treasury to a specific Government agency, trust fund, or
account. Their rate is based on an average of market yields on
outstanding Treasury obligations, and they may be redeemed
at the option of the holder. Roughly 80 percent of these are
issued to five holders: the Federal Old-Age and Survivors
Insurance Trust Fund; the civil service retirement and
disability fund; the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund; the
military retirement fund; and the Unemployment Trust Fund.
Interfund transactions (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—
Transactions in which payments are made from one fund
group (either Federal funds or trust funds) to a receipt account
in another group.
International Monetary Fund transactions (“Exchange
Stabilization Fund”, ESF-1)—(IMF) Established by the
United Nations, the IMF promotes international trade, stability
of exchange, and monetary cooperation. Members are allowed
to draw from the fund.
Intrabudgetary transactions (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—
These occur when payment and receipt both occur within the
budget, or when payment is made from off-budget Federal
entities whose budget authority and outlays are excluded from
the budget totals.
Noncompetitive tenders (“Treasury Financing Operations”)—This is a tender or bid to purchase a stated par
amount of securities at the highest yield or discount rate
awarded to competitive bidders for a single-price auction.
Obligations (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—An unpaid
commitment to acquire goods or services.
Off-budget Federal entities (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—
Federally owned and controlled entities whose transactions are
excluded from the budget totals under provisions of law. Their
receipts, outlays, and surplus or deficit are not included in
budget receipts, outlays, or deficits. Their budget authority is
not included in totals of the budget.
Outlays (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Payments on
obligations in the form of cash, checks, the issuance of bonds
or notes, or the maturing of interest coupons.
Par value—The face value of bonds or notes, including
interest.
Quarterly financing (“Treasury Financing Operations”)—
Treasury has historically offered packages of several
“coupon” security issues on the 15th of February, May,
August, and November, or on the next working day. These
issues currently consist of a 3-year note, a 10-year note, and a
30-year bond. Treasury sometimes offers additional amounts
of outstanding long-term notes or bonds, rather than selling
new security issues. (See Reopening.)
Fractional coins (USCC)—Coins minted in denominations
of 50, 25, and 10 cents, and minor coins (5 cents and 1 cent).

Receipts (“Federal Fiscal Operations”)—Funds collected
from selling land, capital, or services, as well as collections
from the public (budget receipts), such as taxes, fines, duties,
and fees.
Reopening (PDO-2)—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,”
ESF-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
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.
Statutory debt limit (FD-6)—By Act of Congress there is a
limit, either temporary or permanent, on the amount of public
debt that may be outstanding. When this limit is reached,
Treasury may not sell new debt issues until Congress
increases or extends the limit. For a detailed listing of changes
in the limit since 1941, see the Budget of the United States
Government. (See debt outstanding subject to limitation.)
STRIPS (PDO-2)—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.

United States—Includes the 50 States, District of Columbia,
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Midway
Island, Virgin Islands, Wake Island, and all other territories
and possessions.
U.S. notes (USCC)—Legal tender notes of five different
issues: 1862 ($5-$1,000 notes); 1862 ($1-$2 notes); 1863 ($5$1,000 notes); 1863 ($1-$10,000 notes); and 1901 ($10 notes).
