Overview of Missouri Governor's 2011 Budget Recommendation by Ronald J. Levy, Director, Missouri Department of Social Services for Nonprofit Services Center's Missouri Budget Forum
The Congressional Budget Office document analyzes data on participation in and contributions to tax-favored retirement plans in 2006. It finds that over half of U.S. workers participated in some type of retirement plan that year. Participation increased from 2003 to 2006 for traditional and Roth IRAs as well as employment-based plans. The average retirement plan contribution also rose after adjusting for inflation. The document provides details on plan participation rates and average contributions for different types of retirement plans.
This document summarizes a presentation by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) about federal grants to state and local governments for infrastructure investment. It provides data on federal nondefense investment in physical capital, education, and research from 1962 to 2017. It also shows that while the federal government accounts for the majority of transportation and water infrastructure spending, state and local governments select projects within federal rules. Research estimates that state and local governments substitute around 0.2 to 1.3 of their own spending for each additional dollar of federal highway grants. The CBO has published several reports on topics related to federal investment.

The document summarizes the city's financial performance for fiscal year 2011. It reports that while general fund revenues were slightly below budget, expenditures were below budget, resulting in a $1.8 million surplus. Several other funds also saw favorable variances. However, lower than expected grants negatively impacted some funds like capital improvement. Enterprise funds like parking, water and sewer saw surpluses, while solid waste had a deficit. Pension funding remains a concern going forward.

Presentation by Wendy Edelberg, an Associate Director for Economic Analysis at CBO, at the Brookings Institution’s Hutchins Center on Fiscal and Monetary Policy.
Revenues and spending as a share of economic output have varied over business cycles as a result of both changes in legislation and automatic stabilizers. Automatic stabilizers are the automatic increases in revenues and decreases in outlays in the federal budget that occur when the economy strengthens, and the opposite changes that occur when the economy weakens.
This document provides additional details on the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) long-term projections for Social Security. It finds that Social Security tax revenues will be insufficient to cover scheduled benefits starting in 2020, resulting in the trust funds being exhausted by 2038. Under an alternative scenario with lower revenue and higher costs, the trust funds would be exhausted by 2023. The document also examines how benefits would be reduced if outlays had to be limited to tax revenues.

Presentation on Capitol Hill in a Panel Discussion with Local Leaders, by Sarah Puro, Principal Analyst, Budget Analysis Division, Congressional Budget Office

Presentation by Keith Hall, CBO Director, to the National Association for Business Economics.
In 2016, the federal budget deficit will increase, in relation to the size of the economy, for the first time since 2009, according to the Congressional Budget Office’s estimates. If current laws generally remained unchanged, the deficit would grow over the next 10 years, and by 2026 it would be considerably larger than its average over the past 50 years, CBO projects. Debt held by the public would also grow significantly from its already high level.
CBO anticipates that the economy will expand solidly this year and next. Increases in demand for goods and services are expected to reduce the quantity of underused labor and capital, or “slack,” in the economy—thereby encouraging greater participation in the labor force by reducing the unemployment rate and pushing up compensation. That reduction in slack will also push up inflation and interest rates. Over the following years, CBO projects, output will grow at a more modest pace, constrained by relatively slow growth in the nation’s supply of labor. Nevertheless, in those later years, output is anticipated to grow more quickly than it has during the past decade.

In 2016, the federal budget deficit will increase, in relation to the size of the economy, for the first time since 2009, according to CBO’s estimates. If current laws generally remained unchanged, the deficit would grow over the next 10 years, and by 2026 it would be considerably larger than its average over the past 50 years, CBO projects. Debt held by the public would also grow significantly from its already high level.
To analyze the state of the budget in the long term, CBO has extrapolated its 10-year baseline projections an additional two decades. If current laws governing taxes and spending remain in place, the outlook for the budget would steadily worsen over the long term, with revenues falling well short of spending. CBO is in the process of completing a detailed update of its long-term projections; but in January the agency did a simplified update. On that basis, budget deficits are projected to rise steadily and federal debt held by the public is projected to exceed 130 percent of GDP by 2040.
To put the federal budget on a sustainable path for the long term, lawmakers would have to make major changes to tax policies, spending policies, or both – by reducing spending for large benefit programs below the projected amounts, letting revenues rise more than they would under current law, or adopting some combination of those approaches. The size of such changes would depend on the amount of federal debt that lawmakers considered appropriate.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) makes 10-year and long-term budget projections for the United States government, including projections of federal spending on major health care programs. CBO projections serve as a benchmark for measuring the fiscal impact of proposed policy changes. Federal spending on Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program, and Affordable Care Act exchange subsidies is projected to increase significantly as a share of GDP over the next 25 years due to growth in health care costs and the aging of the population. CBO examines options for reducing the growth of federal health care spending through various reforms to programs, provider payments, and the overall health care system.
Presentation by Jeff Werling, Assistant Director, Macroeconomic Analysis Division, for the REALTOR® University Speaker Series.
In fiscal year 2016, for the first time since 2009, the federal budget deficit increased in relation to the nation’s economic output. The Congressional Budget Office projects that over the next decade, if current laws remained generally unchanged, budget deficits would eventually follow an upward trajectory—the result of strong growth in spending for retirement and health care programs targeted to older people and rising interest payments on the government’s debt, accompanied by only modest growth in revenue collections. Those accumulating deficits would drive debt held by the public from its already high level up to its highest percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) since shortly after World War II.
Presentation by Matthew Goldberg, Deputy Assistant Director for CBO’s National Security Division, to the Manpower Roundtable.
If the Congress rejects certain cost-saving proposals of the Administration that it has not accepted in the past, and if costs for weapon systems continue to rise as they have in the past, funding required to implement the Administration’s plans for the Department of Defense would exceed the funding caps set by the Budget Control Act of 2011 by $162 billion (in 2016 dollars) over the 2017–2020 period.
Federal spending for highways, which takes place largely through grants to state and local governments, has equaled a fairly stable percentage of gross domestic product over the past 30 years. Since 2001, that spending has exceeded the revenues from fuel and other taxes that are credited to the Highway Trust Fund for highway programs. Policymakers have various options for changing the ways in which the federal government spends on highways and raises money to fund those expenditures.
On November 17, 2018 , Kevin Perese, a senior adviser in CBO's Tax Analysis Division, and Patrick Landers, formerly of CBO, presented at the National Tax Association’s 111th Annual Conference on Taxation.
This presentation summarizes some initial work on allocating state and local taxes to U.S. households as part of CBO’s analyses of the distribution of household income.
CBO plans to allocate three sources of state and local taxes to U.S. households: property taxes, individual income taxes, and consumption taxes (which consist of general and selective sales taxes). The presentation reviews the theoretical incidence for those tax sources and describes how CBO plans to allocate them to households.
The work is in an early stage and was presented for feedback and critical comments. The results in the presentation are preliminary.
If current laws governing taxes and spending did not change, the condition of the federal budget would worsen considerably over the next three decades. Growth in federal spending would continue to outpace growth in federal revenues, leading to ever larger budget deficits.
Federal spending is projected to rise noticeably in relation to the economy because of growth in spending in Social Security, the major health programs, and interest on the government’s debt. Federal revenues would also increase if current laws remained generally unchanged, but they would increase much more slowly than federal spending.

Since 1975, CBO has produced nonpartisan analyses of budgetary and economic issues to support the Congressional budget process.

This presentation describes some of the principles that underlie those estimates and how the estimates relate to Congressional budget enforcement procedures.

If current laws governing taxes and spending remain in place, the outlook for the budget would steadily worsen over the long term, with revenues falling well short of spending. In those projections, federal debt held by the public rises to 141 percent of GDP in 2046.
To put the federal budget on a sustainable path for the long term, lawmakers would have to make major changes to tax policies, spending policies, or both – by reducing spending for large benefit programs below the projected amounts, letting revenues rise more than they would under current law, or adopting some combination of those approaches. The size of such changes would depend on the amount of federal debt that lawmakers considered appropriate.
The Congressional Budget Office aims to quantify uncertainty in its budget and economic estimates. It provides some estimates as ranges rather than single values. However, there are limitations to fully quantifying uncertainty and helping legislators utilize that information. Models and data do not always facilitate estimating uncertainty. Providing ranges could complicate understanding or unclear how legislators would respond. CBO continues working to quantify more uncertainty while navigating these challenges.
The document summarizes the Congressional Budget Office's analysis of the current economic outlook and various fiscal policy options. It finds that while policies like tax cuts could provide stimulus in the short-term, they would also increase the federal debt which is already at high levels relative to GDP. For both stimulus and long-term sustainability, policies are needed that widen the deficit now but reduce it in future years relative to current projections. The CBO provides estimates of various options' effects on output, employment, and debt levels over different time periods.
The FY 2014 Budget Proposals and Where Do We Go From HereMercatus Center
This document summarizes Dr. Jason Fichtner's presentation on the FY 2014 budget proposals and the current fiscal condition. It discusses the Congressional Budget Office's baseline projections of budget deficits and debt through 2023. It notes that autopilot spending on entitlement programs like Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security are driving deficits and debt. The document compares the Obama administration's and House Republican budgets and shows that deficits would remain even if discretionary spending was frozen or cut by 1-2% due to growth in mandatory spending on entitlement programs.
The Congressional Budget Office has regularly published a report that documents trends in public spending for infrastructure. Here, CBO has updated the exhibits featured in that report through 2017.
There are six types of transportation and water infrastructure that are paid for largely by the public sector: highways, mass transit and rail, aviation, water transportation, water resources, and water utilities.
Federal, state, and local governments spent $441 billion on those types of infrastructure in 2017. That amount equaled about 2.3 percent of gross domestic product. The largest component of that total, $177 billion, went to highways, followed by water utilities and mass transit and rail.
The Congressional Budget Office briefing presented by Director Keith Hall provided an update to the budget and economic outlook from 2015 to 2025. The briefing included projections for the federal budget deficit and debt levels, revenues and outlays by major categories, and the economic outlook with projections for GDP growth, unemployment, inflation, and interest rates over the period. The full report with more details can be found at the provided URL.

The consequences of any change to Medicare for different socioeconomic groups depend on the distribution of taxes paid to and benefits received from the current system by each group. However, only a few studies have estimated that distribution, and they offer conflicting views. This presentation describes an analysis of the distribution of Medicare taxes and spending using a unique dataset with information on beneficiaries’ lifetime earnings and Medicare spending. The dataset includes more recent cohorts of beneficiaries than earlier studies, and the distribution of Medicare taxes and spending is projected based on demographic and economic projections from CBO’s long-term microsimulation model.
The Medicare system is progressive. For people born in the 1950s, lifetime Medicare spending net of both premiums and dedicated Medicare taxes, as a share of lifetime earnings, tends to be lower for beneficiaries with higher lifetime household earnings. Almost all of the variation in lifetime Medicare spending net of premiums by lifetime household earnings can be explained by the variation in life expectancy. Medicare is projected to become more progressive for later cohorts because lifetime earnings are expected to grow faster for those with higher earnings.

State of Minnesota Economic Outlook: Implications for the SystemBecky LaPlant
This document summarizes the economic outlook and budget challenges facing the state of Minnesota through fiscal year 2013. It notes that state revenues have fallen below forecasts in recent years due to the recession. The state faces budget gaps in upcoming fiscal years due to slowing revenue growth and increasing spending pressures from an aging population. This will reduce funding available for higher education and the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
