Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, the federal gov't. has been recording the largest budget deficits, as a share of gross domestic product (GDP), since the end of World War II. As a result of those deficits, the amount of federal debt held by the public has soared surpassing $9 trillion at the end of fiscal year 2010 and equal to 62 percent of GDP. The interest the government pays on that debt is currently low by historical standards as a percentage of GDP but is expected to grow rapidly over the next several years as interest rates rise. This study provides background material on federal debt and interest costs. Contents: Debt Held by the Public; Other Measures of Federal Debt; Interest Payments and Receipts. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand publication.

Book excerpt: Articles, reports, and books on the federal debt and its effects tend to be complex and technical. As a result, the public frequently misunderstands these issues. For example, people often forget that even if Congress and the President agree to balance the annual budget within the next several years, the federal debt will continue to grow until balance is actually achieved. Although declining deficits and, ultimately, balanced budgets could reduce the debt as a share of the economy, the debt will not decline unless there is a budget surplus. This document responds to frequently asked questions about the federal debt, deficits, and interest rates. GAO organizes these questions into three sections: (1) trends in the federal debt, deficits, and interest; (2) sales and ownership of federal debt; and (3) effects of the federal debt. For readers who are interested in more detailed information on these topics, GAO includes a short bibliography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past few years have seen a sharp rise in the debt of the federal government. The surge in debt stems partially from lower tax revenues and higher federal spending related to the recent severe recession and turmoil in financial markets. However, the growing debt also reflects an imbalance between spending and revenues that predated those economic developments. This book examines federal debt issues and interest costs, as well as a history of the debt limit.
