Book Research and Development in the Pharmaceutical Industry  A CBO Study

Download or read book Research and Development in the Pharmaceutical Industry A CBO Study written by Congressional Budget Office and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-06-09 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perceptions that the pace of new-drug development has slowed and that the pharmaceutical industry is highly profitable have sparked concerns that significant problems loom for future drug development. This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study-prepared at the request of the Senate Majority Leader-reviews basic facts about the drug industry's recent spending on research and development (R&D) and its output of new drugs. The study also examines issues relating to the costs of R&D, the federal government's role in pharmaceutical research, the performance of the pharmaceutical industry in developing innovative drugs, and the role of expected profits in private firms' decisions about investing in drug R&D. In keeping with CBO's mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the study makes no recommendations. David H. Austin prepared this report under the supervision of Joseph Kile and David Moore. Colin Baker provided valuable consultation...

Book The Congressional Budget Office

Download or read book The Congressional Budget Office written by Philip G. Joyce and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created in 1974, the U.S. Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has become one of the most influential forces in national policymaking. A critical component of our system of checks and balances, the CBO has given Congress the analytical capacity to challenge the president on budget issues while it protects the public interest, providing honest numbers about Congress's own budget proposals. The book discusses the CBO’s role in larger budget policy and the more narrow "scoring" of individual legislation, such as its role in the 2009–2010 Obama health care reform. It also describes how the first director, Alice Rivlin, and seven successors managed to create and sustain a nonpartisan, highly credible agency in the middle of one of the most partisan institutions imaginable. The Congressional Budget Office: Honest Numbers, Power, and Policy draws on interviews with high-level participants in the budget debates of the last 35 years to tell the story of the CBO. A combination of political history, economic history, and organizational development, The Congressional Budget Office offers an important, first book-length history of this influential agency.

Book A CBO Study  The Budget and Economic Outlook  An Update

Download or read book A CBO Study The Budget and Economic Outlook An Update written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deficit for 2006 will be notably lower than the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated in March, when it issued its previous projections of the federal budget. The broad fiscal outlook for the coming decade, however, has not changed materially since then. The underlying projections of outlays and revenues for future years are similar to those presented five months ago, with the exception that the current projections of spending from this year year's appropriations are now higher reflecting the extrapolation of recent supplemental funding primarily for the war in Iraq and hurricane relief. CBO now expects the 2006 deficit to total $260 billion a $58 billion decline from the deficit recorded for 2005 (see Summary Table 1). Relative to the size of the economy, the deficit this year is expected to equal 2.0 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), down from 2.6 percent in 2005. CBO's current estimate of the deficit for 2006 is $112 billion lower than the amount that it estimated when it analyzed the President's budgetary proposals in March. Higher-than-anticipated revenues, mostly from individual and corporate income taxes, account for the bulk of that improvement. CBO now expects 2006 revenues to exceed its March estimate (including the President's proposals) by $99 billion, or about 4 percent. At the same time, outlays this year are expected to be $13 billion or less than 0.5 percent below CBO's March estimate (including the impact of proposed supplemental appropriations), primarily because of lower-than-anticipated spending on the government's major health care programs, Medicare and Medicaid.

Book A CBO Study  Regulatory Takings and Proposals for Change

Download or read book A CBO Study Regulatory Takings and Proposals for Change written by Congressional budget office (u s congress) washington dc and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The takings clause of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states "nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." Some Members of Congress believe that the enforcement of this requirement is inadequate and that statutory measures are needed to both reduce the infringement of private property rights resulting from government regulation and ensure compensation in the event of such infringement. A variety of legislation has been proposed in recent sessions of Congress to achieve those goals. This study examines those proposals and their possible consequences. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) prepared it at the request of Senator John Glenn, Ranking Minority Member of the Committee on Governmental Affairs. In accordance with CBO's mandate to provide objective and impartial analysis, the study contains no recommendations.
