.CASH INCOME AND OUTGO.

The cash Income and outgo data appearing In the

from and payments to the public as derived in the 1957
Budget of the United States, Special Analysis A. Reconciliation to cash deposits and withdrawals In the account

of the Treasurer of the United States is shown on the
same basis as in the Budget document. There Is also shown
the amount of net cash borrowing from, or repayment of
borrowing to, the public. By these arrangements, data in

effect of all these transactions with the public is
reflected in changes in the balance in the Treasurer's

account and in cash held outside the Treasury.

Figures for back years have been
revised where necessary in order to make them as nearly

borrowing from the public includes net borrowing by the
Treasury through public debt transactions and also net
borrowing by Government agencies and Government-sponsored

classifications as

available data will permit. For this reason certain of
the figures differ somewhat from those published in

Cash transactions through the Treasurer's account ar
similar in general concept to those Included in the Budget
series, but are limited in coverage to transactions which

affect the balance in that account.

On the other hand,
they Include receipts from the exercise of monetary
authority, v4iich are excluded from receipts from the public

in the Budget series.

The Budget series of cash transactions is designed
to provide information on the flow of money between the

public and the Federal Government as a whole, and therefore

includes transactions not cleared through the Treasurer's

series of transactions with the public is based on the
