Profile of the Economy 

[Source: Of fice of Mac ro eco nomic Anal y sis] 

Real gross domestic product (GDP) 

In the first quar ter of 2000, real GDP in creased at a 5.4 percent an nual rate. This was be low the out sized 7.3 per cent increase in the fourth quarter of 1999, but it exceeded the 

av er age quar terly gain of 4.4 per cent dur ing the last 4 years. 

The slow down re flected de te ri o ra tion in net ex ports as well as 

a fallback in in ven tory in vest ment and in Fed eral spend ing. 

The lat ter two cat e go ries grew very rap idly in the fourth quarter of 1999 in an tic i pa tion of pos si ble dis rup tions re lat ing to 

the Year 2000 (Y2K) bug. 

Al though over all GDP growth slowed, do mes tic pur chases 

other than in ven tory in vest ment were ex traor di narily strong in 

the first quar ter of 2000. Do mes tic fi nal de mand ac cel er ated to 

an 8.0 per cent an nual rate from 5.9 per cent in the fourth quar­ ter of 1999. Per sonal con sump tion ex pen di tures surged at an 

8.3 per cent pace, the fast est quar terly rate since early 1983. 

Growth in con sumer spend ing picked up mark edly in the last 3 

years, fu eled by ris ing in come and by the wealth ef fects of 

stock mar ket gains. Busi ness fixed in vest ment also strength­ ened in the first quar ter of 2000. It re bounded at a 21.2 per cent 

pace af ter grow ing just 2.9 per cent in the fourth quar ter of 

1999. De ferred pur chases of com puter equip ment un til af ter

the Y2K date change partly contrib uted to the invest ment 

swing. 

The grow ing for eign trade def i cit con tin ued to drag on the 

econ omy in the first quar ter of 2000, sub tract ing 1.3 per centage points from real growth. This was more than in recent 

quar ters but less than the drag in the first quar ter of 1999. 

Inflation 

In fla tion has picked up this year. Energy prices have in -

creased sharply and are re spon si ble for much of the ac cel er a ­

tion. Core infla tion, which excludes food and energy, still 

re mains rela tively moder ate. Rising compen sa tion costs are 

caus ing some concern, but contin ued produc tiv ity growth 

should help min i mize the passthrough to prices. 

Con sumer prices in creased at a 4.3 per cent an nual rate dur ing 

the first 4 months of 2000. This was an ac cel er a tion of about 

1-1/2 per cent age points from1999. Higher oil prices greatly 

con trib uted to the rise. Prices of pe tro leum-based en ergy products have risen at an an nual rate of more than 50 per cent af ter 

jump ing by al most 30 per cent in 1999. Core in fla tion ac cel erated to a 2.9 per cent an nual rate. That was up one per cent age 

point from the 1.9- per cent rise in 1999, the small est yearly increase since 1965. Food prices rose at a modest 1.5 percent 

pace in 2000. 

At the pro ducer level, the pat tern for fin ished goods prices 

gen er ally mir rored de vel op ments at the con sumer level. Finished goods prices rose at a 5.4 percent pace in the first 4 

The na tional ac counts mea sures of in fla tion ac cel er ated in 

the first quarter of 2000, mainly reflect ing higher energy 

prices. The GDPprice in dex moved up at a 2.7 per cent an nual 

rate com pared with 2.0 per cent in the fourth quar ter of 1999. 

How ever, after ex clud ing food and en ergy, the core rate increased just 2.1 per cent. This was less than the 2.2 per cent rate 

in the pre vi ous quar ter.

fol lows a 0.9 per cent rise in 1999. The in crease in en ergy prices 

has ac cel er ated from a lit tle more than 18 per cent in 1999 to just 

un der 25 per cent in 2000. Fur ther back in the pro duc tion chain, 

core prices for crude goods are ris ing at a slower rate than in 

1999, but prices for core in ter me di ate goods picked up. 

Hourly compen sa tion in the nonfarm business sector increased at a 4.2 per cent an nual rate in the first quar ter, lit tle differ ent from the 4.3 percent rise recorded for all of 1999. 

Pro duc tiv ity growth slowed to a 2.4 per cent an nual rate dur ing 

the first quar ter of 2000 af ter a huge 6.9 per cent jump in the 

fourth quar ter of 1999. This boosted the in crease last year to 3.7 

per cent. As a re sult, unit la bor costs moved up at a 1.8 per cent 

an nual rate in the first quar ter of 2000 af ter in creas ing by a 

slight 0.6 per cent in 1999. The em ploy ment cost in dex for to tal

com pen sa tion, a sep a rate but closely watched compen sa tion 

mea sure, jumped by 1.4 per cent in the first quar ter, an an nual 

rate of 5.4 per cent. Ben e fit costs rose sharply.

Employment and unemployment

La bor mar kets con tinue to grow at a brisk pace dur ing the

first 4 months of 2000. The un em ploy ment rate fell be low 4

per cent for the first time in 30 years, but so far there is only

mod est ev i dence that wage pres sure might be de vel op ing.

In re cent months, the tem po rary hir ing of em ploy ees to con -

duct the 2000 de cen nial cen sus dis torted the re ported to tal

nonfarm pay roll em ploy ment growth. Ex clud ing tem po rary

cen sus work ers from the to tal nonfarm job in creases of

458,000 in March and 340,000 in April would have trimmed

the to tals to 341,000 and 267,000, re spec tively. These are still

very strong re sults. So far in 2000, monthly job growth has av -

er aged 243,000, af ter ad just ment for cen sus work ers. This was

slightly stron ger than the 226,000 av er aged dur ing all of 1999.

Job gains picked up in con struc tion, which was helped by fa -

vor able weather early in 2000. Em ploy ment has been sta ble in

man u fac tur ing and in creased in min ing af ter de clines for both

in 1999. The large pri vate ser vice-producing sec tor had more

tem per ate in creases this year than last. Monthly gains av er -

aged 185,000 dur ing the first 4 months of 2000, down from

203,000 av er aged dur ing all of 1999. None the less, this still

rep re sents the larg est source of job growth.

PRO FILE OF THE ECON OMY 5 

The econ omy con tin ues to op er ate at a very high rate of la ­ bor uti li za tion. Un em ploy ment de clined from 4.1 per cent of 

the la bor force in Feb ru ary and March to 3.9 per cent in April. 

This was the low est rate since the same read ing in Jan u ary 

1970. The share of the working-age popu la tion employed 

reached a re cord-breaking 64.9 per cent in April. 

Wage gains in nom i nal terms have re mained sur pris ingly 

low. Over the past 12 months, av er age hourly earn ings of produc tion and other nonsupervisory work ers ad vanced by only 

Real disposable personal income 

and consumer spending 

Per sonal in come rose at a 6.3 per cent an nual rate in nom i nal 

terms in the first quar ter of 2000. This ex tends the 6 per cent 

growth pace for the prior 4 years. Wages and sal a ries (the larg­ est source of per sonal in come) rose at a sharp 7.7 per cent annual rate in the first quar ter, up from 6.5 per cent dur ing all of 

1999. In come from div i dends and in ter est also strength ened 

some what rel a tive to 1999. While nom i nal in come growth remained rea son ably sta ble, growth of real dis pos able (af ter-tax) 

per sonal in come slowed in the first quar ter to 3.2 per cent at an 

an nual rate from 3.7 per cent in 1999. The slow down re flected 

higher in fla tion in items pur chased by con sum ers in the first 

quar ter, mainly re sult ing from faster growth in oil prices. 

Real con sumer spend ing surged at an 8.3 per cent an nual rate 

in the first quar ter of 2000, the larg est quar terly in crease since

1983. The big gest gains con tin ued to cen ter in ar eas of dis cretion ary spend ing, such as mo tor ve hi cles, fur ni ture and ap pliances, recre ational services, and clothing. Infor ma tion on 

re tail sales in April sug gests that spend ing flat tened out some 

early in the sec ond quar ter of 2000 af ter the out sized gain of 

the first quar ter. 

The greater in crease in spend ing than in dis pos able in come 

pulled the per sonal sav ing rate down fur ther to only 0.7 per- cent in the first quar ter of 2000 from 1.8 per cent in the fourth 

quar ter of 1999. The lat est read ing is the low est since neg a tive

sav ing was recorded in 1933. The saving rate has declined 

steadily from a re cent high of 8.7 per cent in 1992, pri mar ily

be cause of the grow ing “wealth ef fect” re sult ing from the 

stock mar ket rise. In creases in as set val ues are not counted as 

in come in the national in come and product accounts, from 

which saving is calcu lated, but none the less contrib ute to the 

will ing ness of con sum ers to spend. 

Industrial production 

and capacity utilization 

In dus trial pro duc tion in manu fac tur ing, min ing and util i ties 

con tin ues to pick up in 2000. Dur ing the first 4 months of 2000,

pro duc tion rose at a strong 7.9 percent annual rate. This 

3.8 per cent. This repre sents a slowing from a 12-month in -

crease of 4.4 per cent 2 years ago, an un usual de vel op ment in a 

pe riod of tight la bor mar kets. Growth dur ing the first 4 months 

of 2000 picked up to a 4.5 per cent an nual rate. This trend could 

be the first hint of ac cel er a tion, al though de vel op ments over 

such a short pe riod are sel dom con clu sive. In real terms, earn­ ings rose by about 1/2 per cent dur ing 1999, ex tend ing the prior 

5 years’ pos i tive read ings for the stron gest per for mance since 

the early 1970s. 

rep re sents a sharp im prove ment from 4.7 per cent over the 12 

months of 1999 and only 2.5 per cent dur ing 1998, when the effects of the Asian cri sis cur tailed ac tiv ity. 

Man u fac turing pro duc tion, which ac counts for 88 per cent of

of 1999. The high-tech in dus tries of com put ers, semi-con ductors and com mu ni ca tions equip ment con tinue to buoy growth, 

with an an nual rate gain ap proach ing 60 per cent this year. Ex­ clud ing the high-tech cat e gory, fac tory out put is ad vanc ing at 

only a 2.8 per cent rate so far dur ing 2000, but that is still stronger than the 1.6 per cent rise dur ing all of 1999. Pro duc tion in

the min ing in dus try (5-1/2 per cent of in dus trial out put) has 

risen at a 3.7 per cent pace in 2000, com pared to 1.4 per cent in 

1999. Output in mining had plunged by 7.0 percent during 

1998, when fall ing oil prices re sulted in sharply re duced ac tivity in oil and gas ex trac tion.

82.1 per cent. This was slightly above the long-run av er age of 

82.0 per cent and the high est level since May 1998. De spite a 

1.7 per cent age point ad vance over 1999, this rate still re mains 

2.3 per cent age points be low its ex pan sion high of 84.4 per cent 

reached in Jan u ary 1995. 

Nonfarm productivity and unit labor costs 

There has been grow ing rec og ni tion that U.S. pro duc tiv ity 

growth has moved to a higher trend rate in re cent years, the result of in no va tions and in vest ment in in for ma tion tech nol ogy. 

Nonfarmbusi ness pro duc tiv ity (real out put per hour worked) 

has risen at a 2.8 per cent an nual rate since the end of 1995. 

That was dou ble the rate av er aged over the pre vi ous two decades. Dur ing 1999,nonfarm pro duc tiv ity grew by a par tic ularly strong 3.6 per cent, in clud ing gains at nearly a 6.0 per cent 

pace dur ing the fi nal two quar ters. In the first quar ter of 2000, 

growth mod er ated to a still strong 2.4 per cent an nual rate. 

Hourly compen sa tion costs in the nonfarmbusi ness sec tor 

rose at a 4.2 per cent an nual rate in the first quar ter of 2000, 

about the same as av er aged in 1999. Unit la bor costs, which reflect the inter ac tion of compen sa tion and produc tiv ity,

help ing to con tain in fla tion and hold growth of prices of U.S. 

out put to only 1.8 per cent over 1999. 

Pro duc tiv ity in the man u fac tur ing sec tor con tin ues to reg is­ ter im pres sive gains. Fac tory out put per hour soared at a 6.9 

per cent an nual rate in the first quar ter of 2000. This matched 

the strong rate of in crease dur ing all of 1999. Hourly com pen­ sa tion costs in man u fac tur ing rose at a 3.8 per cent pace in the 

first quar ter. Be cause the in crease in com pen sa tion was more 

than off set by rapid pro duc tiv ity growth, unit la bor costs in 

man u fac tur ing fell at a 2.9 per cent pace in the first quar ter. The 

drop ex tended a 6-year de clin ing trend, re duc ing fac tory unit 

la bor costs by a to tal of 8.7 per cent. 

Current account balance 

The current account measures international trade in goods 

and services as well as the net flow of investment income and 

net unilateral transfers. The current account has been in deficit 

almost continuously since the early 1980s. In 1999, the 

current account deficit reached a record $338.9 billion, 

representing an all-time high 3.7 percent share of nominal 

GDP. 

The def i cit wid ened sub stan tially dur ing the 1990s pri marily be cause of de te ri o ra tion in the mer chan dise trade bal ance.

U.S. eco nomic growth out paced that of its ma jor trad ing partners, causing im ports to grow much more rap idly than exports. Sharp dol lar ap pre ci a tion from 1995 to 1998 and higher

prices for im ported oil since 1999 con trib uted to the wid en ing 

trade gap. The mer chan dise trade def i cit dou bled in the last 5 

years to $347.1 bil lion in 1999, a re cord high. It con tin ued to 

in crease in the first quar ter of 2000. 

Other ma jor com po nents of the cur rent ac count con trib uted 

to the grow ing def i cit. The sur plus on trade in ser vices narrowed in the last 2 years. In ad di tion, what had been a pos i tive 

Interest rates 

The Fed eral Re serve tight ened mon e tary pol icy be cause of 

con cern that the faster growth in de mand than in po ten tial supply could result in infla tion. In 1999, the Federal Reserve 

raised short-term in ter est rates three times by a to tal of 75 ba sis 

points. This re versed the eas ing moves made in 1998 dur ing 

the pe riod of global fi nan cial tur moil. So far in 2000, the Fed­ eral Re serve in creased rates three more times by a to tal of 100 

ba sis points (1 per cent age point). The six in creases raised the 

key Fed eral funds tar get rate (the rate that banks charge each

other for over night loans) from 4.75 per cent to 6.50 per cent. 

bal ance on in vest ment in come shifted to a neg a tive in 1998 

and 1999. Large inflows of capi tal into the United States 

boosted pay ments of earn ings and in ter est to for eign ers. 

The cur rent ac count def i cit is matched by off set ting trans ac­ tions in the fi nan cial and cap i tal ac counts, plus a sta tis ti cal discrep ancy. The finan cial account recorded a net inflow of 

$378.2 bil lion in 1999 as in flows for for eign-owned as sets in 

the United States far ex ceeded out flows for U.S.-owned as sets 

abroad. Net in flows of for eign di rect in vest ment and of pri vate 

se cu ri ties, in clud ing eq ui ties, jumped sharply. 

Exchange rate of the dollar 

Since 1995, the ex change rate of the dol lar against a broad 

in dex of im por tant U.S. trad ing part ners’ cur ren cies in creased 

mark edly as eco nomic growth in this coun try out paced that of

most of the U.S.’s trad ing part ners. Af ter some vol a til ity in 

1998, the ex change rate lev eled out in 1999 be fore ris ing again 

since Oc to ber. The dol lar ap pre ci ated by 1.9 per cent from Oc­ to ber through April against the broad in dex of cur ren cies. 

All of the ap pre ci a tion was against the ma jor cur ren cies of 

the most impor tant U.S. trading partners. These curren cies 

con sist of the euro plus those of other ma jor part ners such as 

Can ada, Ja pan and the United King dom. Since Oc to ber 1999, 

the dol lar has in creased by 4.8 per cent against that nar row 

range of ma jor cur ren cies. In con trast, the dol lar re mains rel atively steady against the curren cies of other im por tant U.S. 

trad ing part ners. 

The per for mance of the dol lar against the ag gre gate in dex of 

ma jor cur ren cies masks diver gent pat terns among in di vid ual 

cur ren cies. The dol lar ap pre ci ated steadily by more than 13 

per cent from Oc to ber through April against the euro. The exchange rate against the yen was more vol a tile. Since its most 

re cent peak in Au gust 1998, the ex change rate of the dol lar 

against the yen fell by al most 30 per cent through De cem ber 

1999, then im proved by 3 per cent from De cem ber through 

April. The yen strength ened in 1999 amid ex pec ta tions that a 

re cov ery in the Jap a nese econ omy was im mi nent. In ad di tion, 

strong foreign in ter est in Jap a nese eq ui ties helped aug ment 

the yen’s rise. 

The dis count rate (the rate the Fed eral Re serve charges banks 

for short-term funds) was raised from 4.50 per cent to 6.0 per- cent. The mar ket in ter est rate for the 3-month Trea sury bill, 

which usu ally cen ters on the level of the dis count rate, was 

about 6.2 per cent in mid-May. 

Rates on long-term Treasury secu ri ties in creased through 

1999 and in early 2000 as eco nomic growth con tin ued to ex­ pand at a rapid pace. The in ter est rate on the 10-year Trea sury 

note rose from about 4.7 per cent at the end of 1998 to over 6.6 

per cent in early 2000. The rate on the 30-year Trea sury bond

rose from 5.1 per cent to 6.6 per cent over that pe riod. In 2000,

Housing 

Ac tiv ity in the hous ing mar ket has slowed a bit be cause of

ris ing mort gage in ter est rates, but it re mains at a fairly high 

level. Rapid gains in em ploy ment and in come and the wealth 

ef fects of ris ing stock prices have con tin ued to sup port strong 

de mand for hous ing de spite the in crease in mort gage costs. 

Sales of new sin gle-family homes posted a new re cord of 

904,000 in 1999. This was only about 2 per cent higher than in 

1998 when new home sales rose by al most 10 per cent. Re sales 

of ex ist ing homes also reached a new re cord in 1999, climb ing 

4.5 percent above the 1998 total to 5.2 million. New home 

sales ac cel er ated in the first quar ter of 2000, partly due to un­ sea son ably mild weather. 

Growth in sales of both new and ex ist ing homes over the past 

sev eral years has led to a dra matic in crease inhomeownership. Since the be gin ning of 1993, the num ber of new home own ers 

has grown by al most 9 mil lion. The homeownership rate rose 

to 67.1 per cent in the first quar ter of 2000, an all-time re cord. 

Con struc tion of new hous ing units moved up to 1.67 mil lion 

in 1999. This was the high est an nual to tal since1986. Starts of

sin gle-family homes rose by 5 per cent to a 21-year peak, while 

starts of multi-family units declined slightly. Total housing

Federal budget 

The Fed eral bud get is ex pected to show a much larger surplus in fis cal 2000 than the $167 bil lion pro jected in the Admin is tra tion’s “Fiscal Year 2001 Budget” (released in 

Feb ru ary). Fis cal 2000 will mark the third con sec u tive year of 

Fed eral bud get sur plus af ter 28 years of def i cits. The sur plus 

grew to $124 billion in fis cal 1999 from $69 bil lion in fis cal 

1998. Strong eco nomic growth and pas sage of def i cit re duction pro grams placed the def i cit on a down ward course af ter it 

reached an all-time high of $290 bil lion in fis cal 1992. The surpluses are es ti mated to re duce the amount of Fed eral debt held 

by the pub lic by a to tal of $355 bil lion by the end of fis cal 

2000. 

Since 1992, growth in Federal outlays has remained re- strained while strong growth in jobs, in come and cap i tal gains 

has boosted re ceipts. Out lays in creased just 3.0 per cent in fiscal 1999 and dipped to 18.7 per cent in re la tion to GDP, the

the pace has risen even higher. Im prove ment in cor po rate prof- Medicare, and mak ing in vest ments to en hance the eco nomic

INTRODUCTION: Federal Fiscal Oper a tions 

Bud get au thor ity usu ally takes the form of ap pro pri a tions 

that al lowob li ga tionsto be in curred and pay ments to be made. 

Reappropriations are Congres sio nal actions that extend the 

avail abil ity of unobligated amounts that have ex pired or would 

oth er wise ex pire. These are counted as new bud get au thor ity in 

the fis cal year of the leg is la tion in which thereappropriationact 

is in cluded, re gard less of when the amounts were orig i nally ap­ pro pri ated or when they would oth er wise lapse. 

Ob li ga tions gen er ally are liq ui dated by the is su ance of 

checks or the dis burse ment of cash—out lays . Ob li ga tions may 

also be liq ui dated (and out lays re corded) by the ac crual of inter est on pub lic is sues of Trea sury debt se cu ri ties (in clud ing an 

in crease in re demp tion value of bonds out stand ing); or by the

is su ance of bonds, de ben tures, notes, mon e tary credits, or 

elec tronic pay ments. 

Re funds of col lec tions gen er ally are treated as re duc tions 

of col lec tions, whereas pay ments for earned-income tax credits in ex cess of tax li a bil i ties are treated as out lays. Out lays 

dur ing a fis cal year may be for pay ment of ob li ga tions in curred 

in prior years or in the same year. Out lays, there fore, flow in 

part from un ex pended bal ances of prior year bud get au thor ity 

and from bud get au thor ity pro vided for the year in which the 

money is spent. Total outlays include both budget and 

off-budget out lays and are stated net of off set ting col lec tions.

Re ceipts are re ported in the ta bles as ei ther bud get re­ ceipts or off set ting col lec tions. They are col lec tions from the 

pub lic, ex clud ing re ceipts off set against out lays. These, also 

called gov ern men tal re ceipts, con sist mainly of tax receipts 

(in clud ing so cial in sur ance taxes), re ceipts from court fines, 

cer tain li censes, and de pos its of earn ings by the Fed eral Re- serve system. Refunds of re ceipts are treated as de duc tions 

from gross re ceipts. To tal Gov ern ment re ceipts are com pared 

with to tal out lays in cal cu lat ing the bud get sur plus or def i cit.

Off setting collec tions from other Govern ment accounts 

or the pub lic are of a busi ness-type or mar ket-oriented na ture. 

They are clas si fied as ei ther col lec tions cred ited to ap pro pri ations or fund ac counts, or off set ting re ceipts (i.e., amounts depos ited in re ceipt ac counts). The for mer nor mally can be used 

with out ap pro pri a tion act by Con gress. These oc cur in two instances: (1) when autho rized by law, amounts col lected for 

ma te ri als or ser vices are treated as re im burse ments to ap propri a tions. For ac count ing purposes, earned reim burse ments 

are also known as rev e nues. These off set ting col lec tions are 

net ted against gross out lays in de ter min ing net out lays from 

such ap pro pri a tions; and (2) in the three types of re volv ing 

funds (pub lic en ter prise, intragovernmental and trust); off set­ ting col lec tions are net ted against spend ing, and out lays are reported as the net amount.

Off setting receipts in receipt accounts cannot be used 

with out ap pro pri a tion. They are sub di vided into three cat e gories: (1) pro pri etary re ceipts, or col lec tions from the pub lic,

off set against outlays by agency and by function; (2) 

intragovernmental trans ac tions, or pay ments into re ceipt accounts from govern men tal appro pri a tion or fund accounts. 

They finance oper a tions within and between Govern ment 

agen cies and are cred ited with col lec tions from other Gov ernment accounts; and (3) offset ting govern men tal receipts 

which in clude foreign cash con tri bu tions. 

Intrabudgetary transac tions are subdi vided into three 

cat e go ries: (1) interfund transac tions—pay ments are from 

one fund group (ei ther Fed eral funds or trust funds) to a re ceipt 

ac count in the other fund group; (2) Fed eralintrafund trans actions—pay ments and re ceipts both oc cur within the Fed eral 

fund group; and (3) trust intrafundtrans ac tions—pay ments 

and re ceipts both oc cur within the trust fund group. 

Off setting re ceipts are gen er ally de ducted from bud get au­ thor ity and out lays by func tion, subfunction, or agency. There 

are four types of re ceipts, how ever, that are de ducted from budget totals as undis trib uted offset ting receipts. They are: (1) 

agen cies’ pay ments (in clud ing pay ments by off-budget Fed eral 

en ti ties) as em ploy ers into em ploy ees’ re tire ment funds; (2) inter est received by trust funds; (3) rents and royal ties on the 

Outer Con ti nen tal Shelf lands; and (4) other in ter est (i.e., that 

col lected on Outer Con ti nen tal Shelf money in de posit funds 

when such money is trans ferred into the bud get). 

The Gov ern ment has used the uni fied bud get con cept set 

forth in the “ Re port of the Pres i dent’s Com mis sion on Bud get 

Con cepts” as a foun da tion for its bud get ary anal y sis and presen ta tion since 1969. The con cept calls for the bud get to in clude 

all of the Govern ment’s fiscal transac tions with the public. 

Since 1971, how ever, var i ous laws have been en acted re mov ing 

sev eral Fed eral en ti ties from (or cre at ing them out side of) the 

bud get. Other laws have moved cer tain off-budget Fed eral en tities onto the bud get. Un der cur rent law, the off-budget Fed eral 

en ti ties con sist of the two So cial Se cu rity trust funds, Fed eral 

Old-Age and Sur vi vors In sur ance and the Fed eral Dis abil ity Insur ance Trust Fund, and the Postal Ser vice. 

Al though an off-budget Fed eral en tity’s re ceipts, out lays, 

and sur plus or def i cit or di narily are not sub ject to tar gets set by 

the Con gres sio nal res o lu tion, the Bal anced Bud get and Emer­ gency Defi cit Control Act of 1985 [com monly known as the 

Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act as amended by the Bud get Enforce ment Act of 1990 (2 United States Code 900-922)] in cluded 

off-budget sur plus or def i cit in cal cu lat ing def i cit tar gets un der 

that act and in cal cu lat ing ex cess def i cit. Partly for this rea son, atten tion has fo cused on both on- and off-budget re ceipts, out lays 

and def i cit of the Gov ern ment. 

Ta bles FFO-1, FFO-2 and FFO-3 are pub lished quar terly 

and cover 5 years of data, es ti mates for 2 years, de tail for 13 

months, and fis cal year-to-date data. They pro vide a sum mary of 

data re lat ing to Fed eral fis cal op er a tions re ported by Fed eral en tities and dis burs ing of fi cers, and daily re ports from the FRBs. 

They also de tail ac count ing trans ac tions af fect ing re ceipts and 

out lays of the Gov ern ment and off-budget Fed eral en ti ties and 

their re lated ef fect on as sets and li a bil i ties of the Govern ment. 

Data are de rived from the “Monthly Trea sury State ment of Receipts and Out lays of the United States Gov ern ment.”

IN TRO DUC TION: Source and Availabil ity of the 

Balance in the Account of the U.S. Treasury 

The De part ment of Trea sury’s (Trea sury) op er at ing cash 

is main tained in ac counts with the Fed eral Re serve Banks 

(FRBs) and branches, as well as in tax and loan ac counts in 

other fi nan cial in sti tu tions. Ma jor infor ma tion sources in clude 

the Daily Bal ance Wire re ceived from theFRBs and branches, 

and elec tronic trans fers through the Let ter of Credit Pay ment, 

Fedline Pay ment and Fedwire De posit Sys tems. As the FRB 

ac counts are de pleted, funds are called in (withdrawn) from 

thou sands of tax and loan accounts at finan cial insti tu tions

through out the coun try. 

Un der au thor ity of Pub lic Law 95-147, Trea sury im plemented a pro gram on No vem ber 2, 1978, to in vest a por tion of 

its op er at ing cash in ob li ga tions of depositaries main tain ing tax 

and loan ac counts. Un der the Trea sury tax and loan in vest ment 

pro gram, de pos i tary fi nan cial in sti tu tions se lect the man ner in 

which they will par tic i pate. Fi nan cial in sti tu tions wish ing to 

re tain funds de pos ited into their tax and loan ac counts in in terest-bearing ob li ga tions par tic i pate un der the Note Op tion. The 

pro gram per mits Trea sury to col lect funds through fi nan cial insti tu tions and to leave the funds in Note Op tion depositaries 

and in the fi nan cial com mu ni ties in which they arise un til Treasury needs the funds for its op er a tions. In this way, Trea sury is 

able to neutral ize the effect of its fluctu at ing op er a tions on 

Note Op tion fi nan cial in sti tu tion re serves and on the econ omy. 

Like wise, those in sti tu tions wish ing to re mit the funds to the 

Trea sury ac count atFRBs do so un der the Re mit tance Op tion. 

De posits to tax and loan ac counts oc cur as cus tom ers of finan cial in sti tu tions de posit tax pay ments, which the fi nan cial

in sti tu tions use to purchase Govern ment secu ri ties. In most 

cases, this in volves a trans fer of funds from a cus tomer’s account to the tax and loan ac count in the same fi nan cial in sti tution. Also, Trea sury can di rect theFRBs to in vest ex cess funds 

in tax and loan ac counts di rectly from the Trea sury ac count at 

the FRBs.

IN TRO DUC TION: Fed eral Debt

Trea sury se cu ri ties (i.e., pub lic debt se cu ri ties) com prise 

most of the Fed eral debt, with se cu ri ties is sued by other Federal agen cies ac count ing for the rest. Ta bles in this sec tion of 

the “Trea sury Bul le tin” re flect the to tal. Fur ther de tailed in forma tion is pub lished in the “Monthly State ment of the Pub lic 

Debt of the United States.” Like wise, in for ma tion on agency 

se cu ri ties and on in vest ments of Fed eral Gov ern ment ac counts 

in Fed eral se cu ri ties is pub lished in the “Monthly Trea sury 

State ment of Re ceipts and Out lays of the United States Gov­ ern ment.” 

• Ta ble FD-1 sum ma rizes the Fed eral debt by listing 

pub lic debt and agency se cu ri ties held by the pub lic, in clud ing 

the Federal Reserve. It also includes debt held by Federal 

agen cies, largely by the So cial Se cu rity and other Fed eral retire ment trust funds. The net un am or tized pre mium and discount also are listed by to tal Fed eral se cu ri ties, se cu ri ties held 

by Gov ern ment ac counts and se cu ri ties held by the pub lic. The 

dif fer ence be tween the out stand ing face value of the Fed eral 

debt and the net un am or tized pre mium and dis count is clas sified as the ac crual amount. (For greater de tail on hold ings of

Fed eral secu ri ties by par tic u lar classes of in ves tors, see the 

own er ship ta bles, OFS-1 and OFS-2.) 

• Ta ble FD-2 cat e go rizes by type in ter est-bearing mar ­

ket able and non mar ket able Trea sury se cu ri ties. The dif fer ence

be tween in ter est-bearing and to tal pub lic debt se cu ri ties reflects out stand ing ma tured Trea sury se cu ri ties—that is, un redeemed secu ri ties that have matured and are no longer 

ac cru ing in ter est. Be cause the Fed eral Fi nancing Bank is under the su per vi sion of Trea sury, its se cu ri ties are held by a U.S. 

Gov ern ment ac count. 

• In ta ble FD-3 , nonmar ket able Trea sury se cu ri ties held 

by U.S. Govern ment accounts are summa rized by is sues to 

par tic u lar funds within Gov ern ment. Many of the funds in vest 

in par value spe cial se ries nonmarketables at in ter est rates deter mined by law. Oth ers in vest in mar ket-based spe cial Treasury secu ri ties whose terms mirror those of market able

se cu ri ties. 

• Ta ble FD-4 pres ents in ter est-bearing se cu ri ties is sued 

by Gov ern ment agen cies. Fed eral agency bor row ing has declined in re cent years, in part be cause the Fed eral Fi nancing 

Bank has pro vided fi nanc ing to other Fed eral agen cies. (Federal agency borrow ing from Treasury is presented in the 

“Monthly Trea sury State ment of Re ceipts and Out lays of the 

United States Gov ern ment.”) 

• Ta bleFD-5il lus trates the av er age length of mar ket able 

in ter est-bearing pub lic debt held by pri vate in ves tors and the 

ma tu rity dis tri bu tion of that debt. 

The av er age length hit a low of 2 years, 5 months in Decem ber 1975. The length then grad u ally in creased un til it 

reached a high of 6 years, 4 months in May 1991. Since then, 

the av er age length has de creased. For ex am ple, dur ing most of 

1996 the av er age length was at 5 years, 3 months. 

In March 1971, Con gress en acted a lim ited ex cep tion to 

the amount of bonds with rates greater than 4-1/4 per cent that 

could be held by the pub lic. This per mit ted Trea sury to of fer 

se cu ri ties ma tur ing in more than 7 years at cur rent mar ket in­ ter est rates for the first time since 1965. In March 1976, the 

def i ni tion of a bond was changed to in clude those se cu ri ties 

lon ger than 10 years to ma tu rity. This ex cep tion has ex panded 

since 1971, au tho riz ing Trea sury to con tinue to is sue longterm se cu ri ties. The ceil ing on Trea sury bonds was re pealed 

on No vem ber 10, 1988. 

The vol ume of pri vately held Trea sury mar ket able se cu rities by ma tu rity class re flects the re main ing pe riod to ma tu rity 

of Trea sury bills, notes and bonds. The av er age length is comprised of an aver age of remain ing peri ods to matu rity, 

weighted by the amount of each se cu rity held by pri vate in vestors. In other words, com pu ta tions of av er age length ex clude 

Gov ern ment ac counts and theFRBs. 

• In ta ble FD-6, the debt ceiling is com pared with the 

out stand ing debt sub ject to lim i ta tion by law. The other debt 

cat e gory in cludes Fed eral debt Con gress has des ig nated as being sub ject to the debt ceil ing. Changes in the non-interestbear ing debt shown in the last column reflect matu ri ties of 

Trea sury secu ri ties on nonbusi ness days, which can be redeemed on the next busi ness day. 

• Ta ble FD-7 de tails Trea sury hold ings of se cu ri ties issued by Gov ern ment cor po ra tions and other agen cies. Cer tain

Fed eral agencies are au tho rized to bor row money from the 

Trea sury, largely to fi nance di rect loan pro grams. In ad di tion, 

agen cies such as the Bonneville Power Ad min is tra tion are au- tho rized to bor row from the Trea sury to fi nance cap i tal projects. Treasury, in turn, finances these loans by selling 

Trea sury se cu ri ties to the pub lic.

IN TRO DUC TION: Mar ket Yields

The tables and charts in this section present yields on 

Trea sury mar ket able se cu ri ties, and com pare long-term yields 

on Trea sury se cu ri ties with yields on long-term cor po rate and 

mu nic i pal se cu ri ties. 

• Ta ble MY-1 lists Treasury market bid yields at con ­

stant ma tu ri ties for bills, notes and bonds. The Trea sury yield 

curve in the ac com pa ny ing chart is based on cur rent mar ket 

bid quo ta tions on the most ac tively traded Trea sury se cu ri ties 

as of 3:30 p.m. on the last busi ness day of the cal en dar quar ter. 

The Treasury uses quota tions obtained by the FRB of 

New York to de rive the yield curve, based on semi an nual inter est pay ments and read at con stant ma tu rity points to de ­

velop a consis tent data series. Yields on Treasury bills are 

cou pon equiva lent yields of bank dis count rates at which 

Trea sury bills trade in the mar ket. The Board of Gov er nors of 

the Fed eral Re serve Sys tem pub lishes the Trea sury constant 

ma tu rity data se ries in its weekly H.15 press re lease. 

• Ta ble MY-2 shows av er age yields of long-term Treasury, cor po rate and mu nic i pal bonds. The long-term Trea sury 

av er age yield is the 30-year con stant ma tu rity yield. The corpo rate bond av er age yield is de vel oped by Trea sury by cal culat ing reofferingyields on new long-term se cu ri ties ma tur ing 

in at least 20 years and ratedAa by Moody’s In ves tors Ser vice. 

The mu nic i pal bond av er age yield prior to 1991 was com piled 

by Trea sury. Be gin ning with Jan u ary 1991, the av er age yield 

is the “Munic i pal Bond Yield Aver age,” published by 

Moody’s In ves tors Ser vice for 20-yearreoffering yields on selected Aa-rated gen eral ob li ga tions. See the foot notes for further ex pla na tion.

be fore it en ters and af ter it de parts the re port ing sys tem, owner ship of a se cu rity may be trans ferred be tween for eign ers of

U.S. banks, bro kers, and other per - sons re port for eign ers’ trans ac tions in

long-term U.S. se cu ri ties (that is U.S. 

Trea sury and Gov ern ment agency

bonds and notes, and U.S. cor po rate

bonds and stocks), which are con­ ducted largely through in ter na tional

fi nan cial cen ters. The data on this 

page pres ent ag gre gate net pur chases

on an an nual ba sis for 1996 through

1999, as well as ac tiv ity for the first quar ter of 2000. The fig ures show

that for eign ers’ an nual net pur chases 

(gross pur chases mi nus gross sales) of

U.S. se cu ri ties have main tained an ex­ tremely high level since 1996. 

An nual net for eign pur chases of U.S.

se cu ri ties first sur passed $100 bil lion

in 1993. They reached a re cord high of $388 bil lion in 1997. Since then,

an nual net pur chases have av er aged 

about $315 bil lion. Net pur chases

amounted to $141 bil lion in the first 

quar ter of 2000, of which $93 bil lion

was re ported op po site Eu rope. 

Over the past few years, the com po si­ tion of for eign ers’ net pur chases has

changed dra mat i cally. In the 

mid-1990s, the ma jor ity of for eign ers’ 

net pur chases con sisted of U.S. Treasury bonds and notes. Since 1997,

how ever, for eign ers in creas ingly have

turned to other long-term se cu ri ties.

IN TRO DUC TION: Foreign Currency Posi tions 

The “Trea sury Bul le tin” re ports for eign cur rency hold ings 

of large for eign ex change mar ket par tic i pants. These re ports 

pro vide in for ma tion on posi tions in deriv a tive in stru ments, 

such as for eign ex change fu tures and op tions, that are in creas­ ingly used in es tab lish ing for eign ex change po si tions but were 

not cov ered in the old re ports. 

The infor ma tion is based on re ports of large for eign ex- change mar ket par tic i pants on hold ings of six ma jor for eign

cur ren cies (Cana dian dollar, German mark, Japa nese yen, 

Swiss franc, pound ster ling and Euro) and the U.S. dol lar. For­ eign cur rency po si tions in the U.S. dol lar, which have been 

col lected since Jan u ary 1999, are in tended to ap prox i mate "all 

other" cur rency po si tions of re port ing in sti tu tions. U.S.-based

busi nesses file a consol i dated re port for their domes tic and 

for eign sub sid iar ies, branches and agen cies. U.S. sub sid iar ies

of for eign en ti ties file only for them selves, not for their for eign 

par ents. Filing is required by law (31 United States Code 

5315; 31 Code of Fed eral Reg u la tions 128, Subpart C).

Weekly and monthly re ports must be filed through out the 

cal en dar year by ma jor for eign ex change mar ket par tic i pants, 

which are de fined as mar ket par tic i pants with more than $50

bil lion equiva lent in for eign ex change con tracts on the last 

busi ness day of any cal en dar quar ter dur ing the pre vi ous year 

(end March, June, Sep tem ber or De cem ber). Such con tracts

in clude the amounts of foreign exchange spot contracts 

bought and sold, for eign ex change for ward con tracts bought 

and sold, for eign ex change fu tures bought and sold, and one 

half the no tional amount of for eign ex change op tions bought 

and sold. Ex emp tions from fil ing the monthly re port are given 

to bank ing in sti tu tions that file the Fed eral Fi nan cial In sti tution Exam i na tion Council (FFIEC) 035 report (“Monthly 

Con sol i dated For eign Cur rency Re port”). 

A quar terly re port must be filed throughout the calen dar 

year by each foreign exchange market par tic i pant that had 

more than $1 bil lion equiv a lent in for eign ex change con tracts 

on the last busi ness day of any quar ter the pre vi ous year (end 

March, June, Sep tem ber or De cem ber). Ex emp tions from fil­ ing the quar terly re port are given to ma jor nonbank market 

par tic i pants that file weekly and monthly re ports and bank ing 

in sti tu tions that file FFIEC 035 re ports. 

This in for ma tion is pub lished in seven sec tions cor re sponding to each of the ma jor cur ren cies cov ered by the re ports. Ta­ bles I-1 through VII-1 present the currency data reported 

weekly by major market partic i pants. Tables I-2 through 

VII-2 pres ent more de tailed cur rency data of ma jor market

par tic i pants, based on monthly Trea sury and FFIEC 035 reports. Ta bles I-3 through VII-3 pres ent quar terly con sol i dated 

cur rency data reported by large market partic i pants and 

FFIEC re port ers that do not file weekly re ports. 

Prin ci pal exchanged under cross-currency inter est rate 

swaps is re ported as part of pur chases or sales of for eign ex- change. Such prin ci pal also was noted sep a rately on monthly 

and quar terly re ports through De cem ber 1998, when this prac­ tice was discon tin ued. The net options posi tion, or the net 

delta-equivalent value of an op tions po si tion, is an es ti mate of 

the re la tion ship be tween an op tion’s value and an equiv a lent

cur rency hedge. The delta equiv a lent value is de fined as the 

prod uct of the first par tial de riv a tive of an op tion val u a tion 

for mula (with re spect to the price of the un der ly ing cur rency)

Statement of Operations 

and Changes in Net Position 

The state ment of op er a tions and changes in net po si tion re - ports the re sults of Gov ern ment op er a tions. This in cludes rev enues gen er ated by the Gov ern ment’s sov er eign power to tax, 

levy du ties, and as sess fines and pen al ties. The state ment cov­ ers the net cost of Gov ern ment op er a tions, net of rev e nue 

earned from the sale of goods and ser vices to the pub lic. It also 

in cludes any ad just ments and un rec on ciled trans ac tions that 

af fect the net po si tion. 

Net cost of Government operations 

Net cost of Gov ern ment op er a tions is the cost of op er a tions 

re ported in the state ment of net cost, which is gross cost mi nus 

earned rev e nue. 

Revenues: financing sources from non-exchange revenue 

The main source of rev e nue for Gov ern ment op er a tions is 

non-exchange rev e nue, which con sists of taxes and other rev e­ nue the Fed eral Gov ern ment gen er ates un der its gov ern men tal 

pow ers or re ceives by do na tion. 

Miscellaneous earned revenue 

Mis cel la neous earned rev e nue con sists of ex change rev enues from the pub lic with vir tu ally no as so ci ated costs. These 

items in clude rev e nues from spec trum auc tions, rents and royal ties on the Outer Con ti nen tal Shelf Lands. 

Unreconciled transactions 

Un rec on ciled trans ac tions are ad just ments made to bal ance 

the change in net po si tion. 

Net position – beginning of period 

This amount is the net po si tion re ported on the prior year’s 

Bal ance Sheet. 

Prior period adjustments 

Prior pe riod ad just ments are made to re vise the be gin ning 

net po si tion bal ance due to ac count ing prin ci ple changes and 

other ad just ments. 

Net position – end of period

This is the amount re ported as net po si tion on the cur rent 

year’s Bal ance Sheet. 

Statement of Net Cost 

This state ment shows the net costs of Gov ern ment op er a­ tions for fis cal 1999, which is funded by tax a tion or through 

Fed eral bor row ing. The state ment re flects the costs in curred to 

carry out the na tional pri or i ties as de ter mined by law. 

Cost is di vided among ma jor func tions, which are the same 

as in the bud get ex cept that the al lo ca tion of costs to the func­ tions is based on ac count ing stan dards. Thus costs are re ported 

on an ac crual ba sis and al lo cated dif fer ently than in the bud get. 

For ex am ple, the costs of pen sions and re tiree health bene fits 

are al lo cated among all func tions that em ploy work ers rather 

than a subfunctionin the in come se cu rity func tion. 

A de scrip tion of all func tions and the com po nents of net cost

for the ac tiv i ties in cluded in the func tion is lo cated in the supple men tal in for ma tion sec tion of the “Fi nan cial Re port of the 

United States Gov ern ment” as “Net Cost Detail.” 

The state ment con tains the fol low ing three com po nents for 

each func tion: 

• The gross cost of Gov ern ment op er a tions; 

• The rev e nues earned from the pub lic for goods and services; and 

• The net cost of Gov ern ment op er a tions, which is the 

gross cost less the rev e nue earned. 

Gross cost 

Gross cost in cludes the full cost of the func tions. These costs 

may be di rectly traced, as signed on a cause and ef fect ba sis or 

rea son ably al lo cated to the func tion. 

Earned revenue 

These are rev e nues that the U.S. Gov ern ment has earned by 

pro vid ing goods and ser vices to the pub lic at a price. 

Net cost 

The net cost of Gov ern ment op er a tions is the gross cost less

the earned rev e nues. 

Balance Sheet 

This state ment shows the op er at ing as sets of the Gov ernment that were ac quired un der fis cal 1999, and prior year bud- gets. These assets re main avail able as re sources to sup ply 

Gov ern ment goods and ser vices in the fu ture. The statement 

also shows the Gov ern ment’s op er at ing li a bil i ties in clud ing

debt held by the pub lic. 

It in cludes some li a bil i ties that have not yet been funded by 

ap pro pri a tions. The net po si tion shown in the state ment re­ flects op er at ing as sets less li a bil i ties.
