Profile of the Economy

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

Real gross domestic product (GDP)

The cur rent eco nomic ex pan sion is now in its ninth year,

one of the lon gest on re cord. Un like past ex pan sions, it has

picked up mo men tum as it has ma tured. Growth in real GDP

ac cel er ated to 4.3 per cent over the four quar ters of 1998, up

from rates just be low 4 per cent over the prior 2 years. The ad -

vance es ti mate for the first quar ter of 1999 shows that real

GDP in creased at a 4.5 per cent an nual rate.

The house hold sec tor has ac counted for much of the

strength, sup ported by ris ing real wages, low un em ploy ment

and in creases in net worth due to gains in the stock mar ket.

Con sumer spend ing on goods and ser vices rose by more than 5

per cent in 1998 and speeded up to a 6.7 per cent pace in the first

quar ter of 1999. Housing pur chases have also surged, lead ing

to dou ble-digit gains in res i den tial in vest ment. Busi ness invest ment in equip ment made a sub stan tial con tri bu tion to the

in crease in GDP as well.

Strength in do mes tic sec tors more than off set de te ri o ration in the for eign trade bal ance. A wid en ing trade def i cit subtracted more than 1 per cent age point from real GDP growth in

1998, and al most 2-1/2 points in the first quar ter of 1999.

The na tional ac counts mea sures of in fla tion are very moder ate. The GDP price in dex in creased by a 1.4 per cent an nual

rate in the first quar ter and rose by 0.9 per cent in 1998. The domes tic pur chases in dex, which re flects prices paid by U.S. resi dents, grew at a 1.0 per cent pace in the first quar ter and just

0.4 per cent over all of last year.

In fla tion

The rate of in fla tion edged up a notch dur ing the early part of

this year from the mod est pace of the last 2 years. This re sulted

pri mar ily from a turn around in the en ergy area, where prices have

re cently jumped for pe tro leum-based en ergy prod ucts.

Fur ther back in the pro duc tion chain, how ever, there are

still no signs of build ing price pres sures. Ad di tionally, there

ap pears to the lit tle pres sure from wages.

Dur ing the first 4 months of the year, the Con sumer Price

In dex (CPI) rose at 3.3 per cent an nual rate. This was roughly

twice the pace of the pre vi ous 2 years. Prices for pe troleum-based en ergy prod ucts were re spon si ble for the turnaround. These prices rose by more than 60 per cent at an an nual

rate this year, fol low ing de clines of about 7 per cent and 15 per -

cent in 1997 and 1998, re spec tively. Food prices in creased at a

1.5 per cent an nual rate, down from a 2.3 per cent ad vance in

1998 and the same as in 1997. The an nual rate of in crease in the

core CPI (ex clud ing food and en ergy) slowed to 1.9 per cent

from 2.2 per cent in 1997 (the small est yearly in crease since

1965) and 2.4 per cent in 1998. (Meth od olog i cal changes over

the last sev eral years, de signed to im prove the ac cu racy of the

CPI, have been a fac tor in low er ing the rate of in crease in the

in dex.)

Pro ducer prices for fin ished 

goods are up at a 2.1 per cent

an nual rate this year, fol low -

ing no change in 1998 and a

de cline of 1.2 per cent in

1997. En ergy prices jumped

by al most 22 per cent at an annual rate, off set ting de clines

in the food and core in dexes.

En ergy prices dropped by

close to 12 per cent in 1998

and by 6-1/2 per cent in 1997.

Core prices for crude and inter me di ate goods are down so

far this year, in di cat ing no immi nent price pres sures further back in the pro duc tion

chain.

Hourly com pen sa tion in the

nonfarm busi ness sec tor increased at a 4.3 per cent annual rate in the first quar ter of

1999. This was about the

same as dur ing 1998. The increase in hourly com pen sa -

tion barely out paced a 4.0

per cent rise in pro duc tiv ity,

re sult ing in a frac tional 0.3

per cent rise in unit la bor

costs. This was down from an

in crease of 1.5 per cent dur ing 

1998. The em ploy ment cost

in dex for to tal com pen sa tion

rose by only 3.0 per cent for

the 12 months end ing in

March, a marked de cel er a tion 

from as much as 3.7 per cent

just 6 months ago.

Employment and

unemployment

La bor mar kets re mained

very tight at the be gin ning of

the year. Nonfarm pay rolls con tin ued to ex pand dur ing the first

4 months of 1999, al though at a more mod er ate pace than late

last year. Nev er the less, the un em ploy ment rate re mained at a

level not seen in nearly three de cades.

The av er age monthly in crease in nonfarm pay roll em ploy -

ment was pulled down from 252,000 in the fourth quar ter of

1998 to 186,000 in the first quar ter of 1999, as se vere win ter

weather de pressed hir ing in some weather-sensitive in dus tries

in March. Strong em ploy ment growth re sumed once again in

April, how ever, and nonfarm pay rolls in creased by 234,000.

This was in line with the av er age monthly gain over the past

year. De mand for la bor re mained high in the pri vate service-producing sec tor. In con trast, the man u fac tur ing sec tor

con tin ued to shed jobs. Af ter ad just ing for the ef fects of a

strike in the ship build ing indus try, job losses since

March 1998, when em ploy -

ment in this sec tor peaked, totaled 402,000.

The in dus tries hard est hit

over the past year in clude indus trial ma chin ery, ap parel, and

elec tri cal and elec tronic equipment. Mining em ploy ment also

soft ened no tice ably in re cent

months re flect ing large cutbacks in the oil and gas extrac tion in dus try.

The un em ploy ment rate

ticked up to 4.3 per cent in

April af ter dip ping to a

29-year low of 4.2 per cent in

March. The lat est re sult extended the string of read ings

at or be low 4.5 per cent to 1

year.

The share of the working-age population em ployed 

has de clined slightly since

hit ting a re cord-breaking 64.5

per cent in Jan u ary. How ever at

64.2 per cent, it still re mains

quite high. These in di ca tors

show that the econ omy contin ues to op er ate at a very

high level of la bor uti li za tion.

Wages con tin ued to rise,

but at a slower pace compared to gains of just a few

months ago. Av er age hourly

earn ings of pro duc tion and

other nonsupervisory workers in creased to $13.11 in

April. Over the past 12

months, these earn ings rose

by 3.2 per cent, sig nif i cantly

slower than the 4.4 per cent

pace re corded in the same period last year. Growth of earn ings in real terms also mod er ated

re cently to 1.0 per cent over the 12 months ended in April, from

2.2 per cent over the 12 months of 1998.

Real disposable personal income and consumer

spending

Real dis pos able (af ter-tax) per sonal in come rose at a 4.6 percent an nual rate in the first quar ter, fol low ing in creases of 3.5

4 PRO FILE OF THE ECON OMY

Civilian Unemployment Rate

Establishment Employment

(Monthly change in thou sands)
per cent dur ing 1998 and 2.9 per cent dur ing 1997. Wage and

sal ary pay ments con tinue to be par tic u larly strong, grow ing at

a 6.0 per cent an nual rate in real terms in the first quar ter.

(Slower growth of such items as in ter est, div i dends, pro pri -

etors’ in come and rental in come con trib uted to the smaller

gain for to tal dis pos able in come.)

Real con sumer spend ing surged by 6.7 per cent in the first

quar ter, following an al ready strong 5.3 per cent gain last year.

Spending on dis cre tion ary items such as fur ni ture and ap pli -

ances, ap parel, jew elry, and sport ing equip ment was par tic u -

larly strong in the first quar ter. Per sonal busi ness ser vices,

in clud ing se cu ri ties bro ker ages and in vest ment coun sel ing,

also con tin ued to rise rap idly.

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

in the first quar ter pulled the per sonal sav ing rate down fur ther.

The per sonal sav ings rate fell to a neg a tive 0.5 per cent from

zero in the fourth quar ter and a nar row 0.5 per cent for all of

1998. The lat est quar ter rep re sented the only quar ter of

dissaving by house holds in post-World War II his tory. Higher

spend ing than in come can be fi nanced out of past sav ing, debt

or the re al iza tion of cap i tal gains, which are not counted as part

of dis pos able per sonal in come. The wealth as so ci ated with the

re cent boom ing stock mar ket has been an im por tant fac tor in

the will ing ness of con sum ers to spend more than sup ported by

cur rent in come.

Industrial production and capacity utilization

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

grew by a solid 0.6 per cent in April, af ter a sim i larly ro bust 0.5

per cent rise in March. Re cent out put gains, the larg est

back-to-back in creases since late 1997, have boosted pro duc -

tion so far this year by 3.7 per cent at an an nual rate. While consid er ably slower than the 6.5 and 5.6 per cent in creases posted

dur ing 1997 and 1996, re spec tively, this rep re sents a sig nif i -

cant im prove ment over last year’s ane mic 1.6-percent gain.

The pickup in in dus trial ac tiv ity mainly re flects a re bound -

ing man u fac tur ing sec tor, which ac counts for nearly 89 percent of to tal in dus trial pro duc tion. Fac tory out put surged at a

5.7 per cent an nual rate over the 3 months ended in April, af ter

nearly a year of slug gish ness that held the growth of pro duc -

tion to just 2.3 per cent over the 12 months of 1998. Some of the

increase re flects height ened ac tiv ity in the high-tech sec tor, although a num ber of other in dus tries also have started to show

signs of im prove ment.

Re cent pro duc tion ad vances boosted the in dus trial ca pac ity

uti li za tion rate to 80.6 per cent in April. This rate fell steadily

from 83.4 per cent in De cem ber 1997 to a 6-1/2 year low of

80.2 per cent in Feb ru ary. This was due not only to weak out put

growth, but also to rapid ex pan sion of ca pac ity. De spite the nascent turn around, ca pac ity uti li za tion still re mains well be low

the ex pan sion high of 84.7 per cent reached in early 1995 and

also be low its long-term av er age of 82.1 per cent.

Nonfarm productivity and unit labor costs

Nonfarm busi ness pro duc tiv ity (real out put per hour

worked) rose at a 4.0 per cent an nual rate in the first quar ter of

1999. This fol lowed a strong 4.3 per cent in crease in the fourth

quar ter of 1998. Pro duc tiv ity growth has ac cel er ated over the

past few years af ter lit tle change in the mid-1990s. The av er -

age an nual in crease posted since 1996 was 2.1 per cent, well

above long-term trend pro duc tiv ity growth, cur rently es ti -

mated to be 1.3 per cent. Very rapid out put growth dur ing the

same pe riod seems to have played an im por tant role in lift ing

pro duc tiv ity above the trend.

Hourly com pen sa tion costs in the nonfarm busi ness sec tor

in creased by 4.3 per cent at an an nual rate dur ing the first 3

months of 1999. This was up from the 4.0 per cent in crease recorded in the fourth quar ter of 1998, but com pa ra ble to the 4.2

per cent rise over all four quar ters of 1998. Vir tu ally all of the

first-quarter in crease in hourly com pen sa tion was off set by

strong pro duc tiv ity growth. This held the rise in la bor costs per

unit of out put to just 0.3 per cent at an an nual rate. Growth of

these costs av er aged a mod er ate 1.3 per cent over the past four

quar ters and helped keep in fla tion sub dued.

Pro duc tiv ity growth in the man u fac tur ing sec tor picked up

again af ter a slow down in 1998 that re flected a marked re duc -

tion in fac tory out put. Dur ing the first quar ter, out put per hour

in this sec tor rose by 5.8 per cent at an an nual rate. This was

com pa ra ble to the 5.3 per cent pace reg is tered in the fourth

quar ter, but con sid er ably faster than the 3.9 per cent in crease

posted over all of last year. Hourly com pen sa tion costs in manu fac tur ing were up by 4.9 per cent at an an nual rate in the Jan u -

ary-to-March pe riod, while unit la bor costs de clined by 0.9

per cent.

Cur rent ac count bal ance

The cur rent ac count is a sum mary of U.S. in ter na tional

trans ac tions, mea sur ing trade in goods and ser vices as well as

the net flow of in vest ment in come and uni lat eral trans fers. The

cur rent ac count has been in def i cit al most con tin u ously since

the early 1980’s. In re cent years, the cur rent ac count def i cit has

wid ened sub stan tially from a re cent low of $6 bil lion in 1991

to an all-time high of $233 bil lion in 1998. How ever, the 1998

fig ure rep re sents a much smaller 2.7 per cent share of GDP

than the 3.6 per cent share in 1987, when the pre vi ous re cord

was set.

Over the past sev eral years, U.S. eco nomic growth has outpaced that of the ma jor U.S. trad ing part ners, caus ing im ports

to grow much more rap idly than ex ports. The sharp ap pre ci a -

tion of the dol lar in more re cent years has wid ened the trade

gap fur ther. In ad di tion, what had been a pos i tive bal ance on

in vest ment in come shifted to a neg a tive bal ance in 1997 as the

in flow of cap i tal into the United States boosted pay ments of

earn ings and in ter est to for eign ers. De te ri o ra tion in the cur rent 

ac count in 1998 pri mar ily re flected a deep en ing of the def i cit

on trade in goods due to the strength of the dol lar as well as

weaker de mand for U.S. goods ex ports in Asia. The def i cit on

in vest ment in come also wid ened sharply.

The cur rent ac count def i cit is matched by off set ting trans ac -

tions in the cap i tal ac count. In 1998, re corded cap i tal in flows

for for eign as sets in the United States ex ceeded cap i tal outflows for U.S. as sets abroad by $237 bil lion at an an nual rate.

The slight dif fer ence be tween the $237 bil lion re ported cap i tal

in flow and the $233 bil lion cur rent ac count def i cit (the sta tis ti -

cal dis crep ancy) is usu ally taken to con sist largely of un re -

corded cap i tal flows.

Ex change rate of the dol lar

The ex change rate of the dol lar against a broad in dex of curren cies of im por tant U.S. trad ing part ners has ap pre ci ated so

far this year af ter de clin ing from Au gust through De cem ber of

last year. Prior to Au gust, the dol lar had con sis tently ap pre ci -

ated since early 1995.

The re ver sal of the dol lar over the Au gust through De cem ber 

pe riod, par tic u larly against the

yen, was partly re lated to unwind ing of highly le ver aged posi tions of in vest ment firms in

the wake of global fi nan cial uncer tainty last sum mer. Many inves tors with yen-based loans

sought to deleverage by buy ing

yen in or der to re pay those

loans. Other fac tors con trib uted

to the dol lar’s de pre ci a tion, includ ing con tin ued pres sures

from the large U.S. cur rent account def i cit, trade ex po sure to

coun tries con sid ered sus cep ti -

ble to Asian con ta gion and a rela tively more rapid de cline in

in ter est rates in the United

States com pared with other indus trial na tions. The dol lar stabi lized to ward the end of last

year as the deleveraging pro cess 

wound down, and has im proved

against most ma jor cur ren cies

since then.

The Fed eral Re serve Board’s

broad trade-weighted in dex of

the dol lar against the cur ren cies

of 36 im por tant U.S. trad ing

part ners fell by about 4-1/2 percent from Au gust through Decem ber af ter ris ing by one-third

from its trough in May 1995.

Since De cem ber, it has ap pre ci -

ated by about 2-1/4 per cent. The

swing against the yen last year

was even sharper. The dol lar

rose by more than 70 per cent

from its 1995 trough through

Au gust 1998, then fell by more

than 20 per cent from Au gust to

Jan u ary. So far this year it has

risen by about 5-1/2 per cent

(through April). Against the

deut sche mark, now part of the

newly in tro duced euro, the dol lar fell by 6-1/2 per cent from

Au gust through De cem ber com pared with a rise of 29 per cent

from April 1995. Since De cem ber, it has re cov ered by al most

10 per cent against the deut sche mark and is near the lev els of

early 1998.

Interest rates

Since No vem ber, the Fed eral Re serve Board’s mon e tary

pol icy has been on hold. Last fall, the Fed eral Re serve Board

made sev eral eas ing moves in or der to stem a rapid pro cess of

deleveraging and a rush to li quid ity, which oc curred as a re sult

of global fears of de fault. Since then, the dis count rate (the rate

the Fed eral Re serve Board charges banks for short-term funds)

has been held at 4.5 per cent and the Fed eral funds tar get (the

rate that banks charge one another for over night bor row ing) 

re mains at 4.75 per cent. The

mar ket in ter est rate for the

3-month Trea sury bill, which

had plunged to as low as 3.8

per cent in late Oc to ber, moved

back up to about 4.5 per cent

by mid-November. Since

then, it has fluc tu ated near that

level.

Credit mar kets sta bi lized after the pe riod of un cer tainty in

the fi nan cial mar kets last fall.

Long-term in ter est rates increased roughly half a percent age point early this year as

the sense of cri sis in in ter na -

tional fi nan cial con di tions

faded and U.S. eco nomic

growth ex panded rap idly. The

in ter est rate on the 30-year

Trea sury bond in creased from

an Oc to ber low of just un der

4.9 per cent to about 5-1/2 percent in March. Yields on the

10-year note fol lowed a sim i -

lar pat tern, ris ing to about

5-1/4 per cent. Long-term

rates edged higher in April but

were still very mod er ate by

his tor i cal norms.

Mort gage rates are also very

fa vor able, help ing to sup port a

high level of hous ing mar ket

ac tiv ity. The rate on a con ven -

tional 30-year fixed rate loan

has been at or be low 7 per cent

for al most a year, the best perfor mance in a gen er a tion.

Housing

Housing con tin ues to be one

of the stron gest sec tors of the

econ omy. Growth has been

fu eled by ex cep tion ally low mort gage in ter est rates, sound

eco nomic fun da men tals such as grow ing em ploy ment and income, and by the wealth ef fects of ris ing stock prices. The

homeownership rate in creased to 66.3 per cent in 1998, an

all-time an nual high. It was 66.7 per cent in the first quar ter of

this year.

Long-term Interest Rates
Sales of new sin gle-family homes to taled 888,000 last year,

the larg est an nual to tal since the se ries be gan in 1963. Sales receded from their peak monthly rate reached last No vem ber, but

held at an ex cep tion ally high 900,000-unit pace through the

first quar ter of this year. Re sales of ex ist ing homes also posted

a re cord year in 1998, reach ing 4.8 mil lion. Resales have contin ued to in crease to over a 5 mil lion-unit an nual rate through

the first 3 months of 1999.

The ex tremely high level of new home sales has spurred

equally rapid gains in new con struc tion. Starts of new homes

surged to their high est rate in more than 10 years in the first

quar ter, ris ing to just a shade un der 1.8 mil lion units at an annual rate. In 1998, hous ing starts were 1.6 mil lion, up 10 percent from the pre vi ous year’s to tal. The real value of res i den tial 

con struc tion ex pen di tures grew by more than 12 per cent during 1998 and in creased at a 15.6 per cent an nual rate in the first

quar ter of 1999.

Federal budget

The Fed eral bud get posted a sur plus of $69 bil lion in fis cal

1998, the first sur plus since 1969 and only the ninth since

World War II. The sur plus rep re sented 0.8 per cent of GDP, the

high est such ra tio since 1956, and re sulted in a re duc tion in the

Fed eral debt level for the first time in 29 years. Strong economic growth and pas sage of def i cit re duc tion 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 1992.

The Ad min is tra tion’s “Fis cal Year 2000 Bud get” pro jects

an other sur plus in the cur rent fis cal year and grow ing surpluses through the year 2009. This is sim i lar to es ti mates from

the Con gres sio nal Bud get Of fice. Af ter re serv ing much of the

sur plus for So cial Se cu rity and Medicare fund ing, the amount

of debt held by the pub lic is pro jected to be cut by one-third between fis cal 2000 and 2009, drop ping as a per cent age of GDP

from over 40 per cent cur rently to 18 per cent by fis cal 2009.

Thus far through fis cal 1999, the bud get is on track to show a

some what larger sur plus than the $79 bil lion that was projected in Feb ru ary. Re ceipts have been grow ing at about a

6-percent rate, while growth in out lays has been held to less

than 4 per cent. These re sults fol low the pat tern set over the

past few years. Growth in re ceipts has been very strong,

boosted by ex pan sion in jobs and in come, ris ing cor po rate

prof its and stock mar ket gains, while Fed eral out lays have

been con tained. In fis cal 1998, re ceipts rose by 9 per cent and

out lays grew by just 3.2 per cent.

Net national saving and investment

Net na tional sav ing av er aged 7.4 per cent of net na tional

prod uct (NNP) in 1998. Over the past 6 years, the na tional saving rate has more than dou bled from a post-World War II low

of 3.4 per cent in 1992. Most of the im prove ment is at trib ut able

to a swing in the Fed eral bud get into sur plus af ter nearly three

de cades in def i cit. As a re sult, the com bined ac count of Federal, State and lo cal gov ern ments has moved from dissaving

equiv a lent to 4.7 per cent of NNP in 1992 to sav ing of 2.0 percent of NNP in 1998. De spite the prog ress, net sav ing (which

ex cludes de pre ci a tion to re place worn-out or ob so lete equipment and struc tures used in pro duc tion) still re mains well below the 12.1 per cent of NNP av er aged in the 1950’s and

1960’s.

Pri vate sav ing (of house holds and busi nesses) has de clined

since 1992 as plung ing house holds’ sav ing has more than offset a gain in cor po rate sav ing. In creased wealth gen er ated by a

surg ing stock mar ket ap pears to have re duced house holds’ desire to save, and last year per sonal sav ing fell to only 0.4 percent of NNP. Strong growth of cor po rate prof its, on the other

hand, lifted net cor po rate sav ing from 2.5 per cent of NNP in

1992 to about 4.0 per cent in the past 2 years. These are the

high est read ings since the mid-1960s.

IN TRO DUC TION: Fed eral Fis cal Op er a tions

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

that al low ob li ga tions to be in curred and pay ments to be made.

Reappropriations are Con gres sio nal ac tions that ex tend 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 the reappropriation

act 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 cred its, 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. To tal out lays in clude both bud get 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 receipts 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 re ceipts

(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 Reserve sys tem. Re funds 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 col lec tions from other Gov ern ment ac counts

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 a -

tions 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 au tho rized by law, amounts col lected for

ma te ri als or ser vices are treated as re im burse ments to ap pro -

pri a tions. For ac count ing pur poses, earned re im 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 re ceipts in re ceipt ac counts can not be used

with out ap pro pri a tion. They are sub di vided into three cat e go -

ries: (1) pro pri etary re ceipts, or col lec tions from the pub lic,

off set against out lays by agency and by func tion; (2)

intragovernmental trans ac tions, or pay ments into re ceipt accounts from gov ern men tal ap pro pri a tion or fund ac counts.

They fi nance op er a tions within and be tween Gov ern ment

agen cies and are cred ited with col lec tions from other Gov ern -

ment ac counts; and (3) off set ting gov ern men tal re ceipts

which in clude for eign cash con tri bu tions.

Intrabudgetary trans ac tions are sub di vided into three

cat e go ries: (1) interfund trans ac 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 eral intrafund trans ac -

tions—pay ments and re ceipts both oc cur within the Fed eral

fund group; and (3) trust intrafund trans 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 bud get to tals as un dis trib uted off set ting re ceipts. 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) in ter est re ceived by trust funds; (3) rents and roy al -

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 deposit 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 include all of the Gov ern ment’s fis cal trans ac tions with the

pub lic. 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 outside of) the bud get. Other laws have moved cer tain off-budget

Fed eral en ti ties 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 In sur ance Trust Fund, and the Postal Service.

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 Emergency Def i cit Con trol 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)] included 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, at ten tion has fo cused on both on- and

IN TRO DUC TION: Source and Avail abil ity of the

 Bal ance in the Ac count of the U.S. Trea sury

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 in for ma tion sources in clude the Daily

Bal ance Wire re ceived from the FRBs and branches, and electronic 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 (with drawn) from thou sands of

tax and loan ac counts at fi nan cial in sti tu tions through out the

coun try.

Un der au thor ity of Pub lic Law 95-147, Trea sury im ple -

mented 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 ter -

est-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 neu tral ize the ef fect of its fluc tu 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’s ac count at FRBs do so un der the Re mit tance Option.

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 pur chase Gov ern ment se cu 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 tu -

tion. Also, Trea sury can di rect the FRBs 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 Fed eral 

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 for ma -

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

Fed eral Re serve. It also in cludes debt held by Fed eral agen cies, 

largely by the So cial Se cu rity and other Fed eral re tire ment trust 

funds. The net un am or tized pre mium and dis count 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 si fied as the accrual amount. (For greater de tail on hold ings of Fed eral se cu 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 re -

deemed se cu ri ties that have ma tured and are no lon ger ac cru ing 

in ter est. Be cause the Fed eral Fi nancing Bank is un der the super 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, non mar ket able Trea sury se cu ri ties held by 

U.S. Gov ern ment ac counts are sum ma 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 de ter -

mined by law. Oth ers in vest in mar ket-based spe cial Trea sury

se cu ri ties whose terms mir ror those of mar ket 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 de clined

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. (Fed eral agency

bor row ing from Trea sury is pre sented in the “Monthly Treasury State ment of Re ceipts and Out lays of the United States

Gov ern ment.”)

• Ta ble FD-5 il 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 increased 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 long-term secu ri ties. The ceil ing on Trea sury bonds was re pealed on Novem ber 10, 1988. 

The vol ume of pri vately held Trea sury mar ket able se cu ri -

ties 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 av er age of re main ing pe ri ods to ma tu rity,

weighted by the amount of each se cu rity held by pri vate in ves -

tors. In other words, com pu ta tions of av er age length ex clude

Gov ern ment ac counts and the FRBs.

• In ta ble FD-6, the debt ceil ing is com pared with the outstand 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 be ing

sub ject to the debt ceil ing. Changes in the non-interest-bearing

debt shown in the last col umn re flect ma tu ri ties of Trea sury secu ri ties on non busi ness days, which can be re deemed on the

next busi ness day.

• Ta ble FD-7 de tails Trea sury hold ings of se cu ri ties is sued 

by Gov ern ment cor po ra tions and other agen cies. Cer tain Federal agen cies are au tho rized to bor row money from the Treasury, 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 autho rized to bor row from the Trea sury to fi nance cap i tal projects. Trea sury, in turn, fi nances these loans by sell ing Trea sury 

se cu ri ties to the pub lic.

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 Trea sury mar ket 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 chartis 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 Trea sury uses quo ta tions ob tained by the FRB of

NewYork to de rive the yield curve, based on semi an nualin ter -

est pay ments and read at con stant ma tu rity pointsto de velop a

con sis tent data se ries. Yields on Trea sury bills are cou pon

equiv a 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 -

• Ta ble MY-2 shows av er age yields of long-term Trea -

IN TRO DUC TION: For eign Cur rency Po si tions

The “Trea sury Bul le tin” reports 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 po si tions in de riv 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 in for ma tion is based on re ports of large for eign exchange mar ket par tic i pants on hold ings of six ma jor for eign

cur ren cies (Ca na dian dol lar, Ger man mark, Jap a nese yen,

Swiss franc, pound ster ling and Euro) and the U.S. dollar.

U.S.-based busi nesses file a con sol 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. Fil ing is re quired 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 equiv a 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 for eign ex change spot con tracts

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 tu -

tion Ex am i na tion Coun cil (FFIEC) 035 re port (“Monthly

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

A quar terly re port must be filed through out the cal en dar

year by each for eign ex change mar ket 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 filing the quar terly re port are given to ma jor nonbank mar ket

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 -

spond ing to each of the ma jor cur ren cies cov ered by the reports. Ta bles I-1 through VII-1 pres ent the cur rency data

re ported weekly by ma jor mar ket par tic i pants. Ta bles I-2

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

mar ket par tic i pants, based on monthly Trea sury and FFIEC

035 re ports. Ta bles I-3 through VII-3 pres ent quar terly consol i dated cur rency data re ported by large mar ket par tic i pants

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

Prin ci pal ex changed un der cross-currency in ter est rate

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

and quar terly re ports. The net op tions po si 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)

mul ti plied by the no tional prin ci pal of the con tract.

State ment of Op er a tions 

and Changes in Net Po si tion

The state ment of op er a tions and changes in net po si tion reports the re sults of Gov ern ment op er a tions. This in cludes rev e -

nues 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 covers 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 e -

nues 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.

State ment of Net Cost

This state ment shows the net costs of Gov ern ment op er a -

tions for fis cal 1998, 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 functions 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 ben e fits

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

than a subfunction in 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 ern -

ment that were ac quired un der fis cal 1998, and prior year budgets. 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 reflects op er at ing as sets less li a bil i ties.
