Introduction 

The Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United 

States Government (MTS) is prepared by the Financial Management 

Service, Department of the Treasury, and after approval by the Fiscal 

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, is normally released on the 8th 

workday of the month following the reporting month. The publication is 

based on data provided by Federal entities, disbursing officers, and 

Federal Reserve banks. 

AUDIENCE 

The MTS is published to meet the needs of those responsible for or 

interested in the cash position of the Treasury, those who are responsible 

or interested in the Government's budget results; and individuals and 

businesses whose operations depend upon or are related to the 

Government's financial operations. 

DISCLOSURE STATEMENT 

This statement summarizes the financial activities of the Federal 

Government and off-budget Federal entities conducted in accordance 

with the Budget of the U.S. Government, i.e. receipts and outlays of 

funds, the surplus or deficit, and the means of financing the deficit or 

disposing of the surplus. Information is presented on a modified cash 

basis; receipts are accounted for on the basis of collections; refunds of 

receipts are treated as deductions from gross receipts; revolving and 

management fund receipts, reimbursements and refunds of monies 

previously expended are treated as deductions from gross outlays; and 

interest on the public debt (public issues) is recognized on the accrual 

basis. Major information sources include accounting data reported by 

Federal entities, disbursing officers, and Federal Reserve banks. 

TRIAD OF PUBLICATIONS 

The MTS is part of a triad of Treasury financial reports. The Daily 

Treasury Statement is published each working day of the Federal 

Government. It provides data on the cash and debt operations of the 

Treasury based upon reporting of the Treasury account balances by 

Federal Reserve banks. The MTS is a report of Government receipts and 

outlays, based on agency reporting. The Combined Statement of 

Receipts, Outlays, and Balances of the United States Government is the 

official publication of the detailed receipts and outlays of the 

Government. It is published annually in accordance with legislative 

mandates given to the Secretary of the Treasury. 

DATA SOURCES AND INFORMATION 

The Explanatory Notes section of this publication provides information 

concerning the flow of data into the MTS and sources of information

The receipt, outlay and deficit figures differ from the FY 2009 Budget, released by the

Treasury Statement.

Note: Interfund receipts and outlays are transactions between Federal funds and trust 

funds such as Federal payments and contributions, and interest and profits on investments 

in Federal securities. They have no net effect on overall budget receipts and outlays since 

the receipt side of such transactions is offset against budget outlays. In this table, Interfund 

receipts are shown as an adjustment to arrive at total receipts and outlays of trust funds 

respectively.

Explanatory Notes 

1. Flow of Data into Monthly Treasury Statement 

The Monthly Treasury Statement (MTS) is assembled from data in the 

central accounting system. The major sources of data include monthly 

accounting reports by Federal entities and disbursing officers, and daily 

reports from the Federal Reserve banks. These reports detail accounting 

transactions affecting receipts and outlays of the Federal Government and 

off-budget Federal entities, and their related effect on the assets and 

liabilities of the U.S. Government. Information is presented in the MTS on 

a modified cash basis. 

2. Notes on Receipts 

Receipts included in the report are classified into the following major 

categories: (1) budget receipts and (2) offsetting collections (also called 

applicable receipts). Budget receipts are collections from the public that 

result from the exercise of the Government's sovereign or governmental 

powers, excluding receipts offset against outlays. These collections, 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. 

Offsetting collections are from other Government accounts or the public 

that are of a business-type or market-oriented nature. They are classified 

into two major categories: (1) offsetting collections credited to 

appropriations or fund accounts, and (2) offsetting receipts (i.e., amounts 

deposited in receipt accounts). Collections credited to appropriation or 

fund accounts normally can be used without appropriation action by 

Congress. These occur in two instances :(1) when authorized by law, 

amounts collected for materials or services are treated as 

reimbursements to appropriations and (2) in the three types of revolving 

funds (public enterprise, intra governmental, and trust); collections are 

netted against spending, and outlays are reported as the net amount. 

Offsetting receipts in receipt accounts cannot be used without being 

appropriated. They are subdivided into two categories: (1) proprietary 

receipts - these collections are from the public and they are offset against 

outlays by agency and by function, and (2) intra governmental funds - 

these are payments into receipt accounts from Governmental 

appropriation or fund accounts. The transactions may be intrabudgetary 

when the payment and receipt both occur within the budget or from 

receipts from off-budget Federal entities in those cases where payment is 

made by a Federal entity whose budget authority and outlays are excluded 

from the budget totals. 

Intrabudgetary transactions are subdivided into three categories: (1) 

interfund transactions, where the 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, where the payments and 

receipts both occur within the Federal fund group; and (3) trust intrafund 

transactions, where the payments and receipts both occur within the trust 

fund group. 

Offsetting receipts are generally deducted from budget authority and 

outlays by function, by subfunction, or by agency. There are four types of 

receipts, however, that are deducted from budget totals as undistributed 

offsetting receipts. They are: (1) agencies' payments (including payments 

by off-budget Federal entities) as employers into employees retirement 

funds, (2)interest received by trust funds, (3) rents and royalties on the 

Outer Continental Shelf lands, and(4) other interest (i.e., interest collected 

on Outer Continental Shelf money in deposit funds when such money is 

transferred into the budget). 

3. Notes on Outlays 

Outlays are generally accounted for on the basis of checks issued, 

electronic funds transferred, or cash payments made. Certain outlays do 

not require issuance of cash or checks. An example is charges made 

against appropriations for that part of employees' salaries withheld for 

taxes or savings bond allotments - these are counted as payments to the 

employee and credits for whatever purpose the money was withheld. 

Outlays are stated net of offsetting collections (including receipts of 

revolving and management funds) and of refunds. Interest on the public 

debt (public issues) is recognized on the accrual basis. Federal credit 

programs subject to the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 use the cash 

basis of accounting and are divided into two components. The portion of 

the credit activities that involve a cost to the Government (mainly 

subsidies) is included within the 

budget program accounts. The remaining portion of the credit activities 

are in non-budget financing accounts. Outlays of off-budget Federal 

entities are excluded by law from budget totals. However, they are shown 

separately and combined with the on-budget outlays to display total 

Federal outlays. 

4. Processing 

The data on payments and collections are reported by account symbol 

into the central accounting system. In turn, the data are extracted from 

this system for use in the preparation of the MTS. 

There are two major checks which are conducted to assure consistency 

of the data reported: 

1. Verification of payment data. The monthly payment activity reported by 

Federal entities on the Statements of Transactions is compared to the 

payment activity of Federal entities as reported by disbursing officers. 

2. Verification of collection data. Reported collections appearing on 

Statements of Transactions are compared to deposits as reported by 

Federal Reserve Banks.
