Federal fiscal trends fiscal years 1971-1995

In recent years, GAO has examined various cross-cutting patterns in the federal government's budget structures, processes, and reporting mechanisms. This staff study focuses on the fiscal components of the budget--the trends in revenues and outlays as well as the underlying factors contributing to these trends. This staff study is primarily derived from data published by the Office of Management and Budget as part of the President's fiscal year 1997 budget submission. Trend data are presented in graphs accompanied by brief descriptions. The data are presented (1) in constant dollars, using 1995 as the base year; (2) as a percent of gross domestic product; and (3) as a share of totals. Analyses of the data cover fiscal years 1971 through 1995.
