Since the mid-1990s, the national income and product accounts personal saving rate for the United States has been trending down, dropping into negative territory for three months during the past two years. This paper examines measurement problems surrounding two of the standard definitions of the personal saving rate. The authors conclude that, despite these measurement problems, the recent decline of the U.S. personal saving rate to low levels seems to be a real economic phenomenon and may be a cause for concern for several reasons. After examining several possible explanations for the trend advanced in the recent literature, the authors conclude that none of them provides a compelling explanation for the steep decline and negative levels of the U.S. personal saving rate.
It differs from the estimate of personal income in the national income and product accounts due to differences in coverage, methodologies used to prepare the estimates and in the timing of the availability of source data. By comparison, U.S. personal income grew 6.2% in 2007, down from 6.7% in 2006. (For more on the state's hottest Zip Codes, see "Metro Jackson communities home to the wealthiest Zip Codes" in the March 31 issue of the Mississippi Business Journal.) "Madison County, for example, has personal income well above the national average," Hill says.
Industry investment in R&D accelerated in the US and many other nations during 2006, according to the Industrial Research Institute's latest annual R&D leaderboard. Overall, Asia's share of 2008 global R&D should grow to 40.8%, up from 36.9% in 2006. The US, in contrast, is seen declining from 32.7% in 2006 to 30.1% in 2008. The latest EU Industrial R&D Scoreboard finds that the top 1,000 R&D investors in the EU increased their R&D over 2006 by 7.4%, while the top 1,000 R&D investors outside the EU hiked their R&D by 11.1%. US R&D for 2006 is officially counted as 2.76% of GDP, second only to Japan. But it may actually be much higher. According to the US Bureau of Economic Analysis, GDP would have been an average of 2.9% higher between 1959 and 2004 i...

This report presents the Tax Foundation's most detailed portrait of the geographic spread of the federal tax burden to date. It provides estimates of all federal taxes - individual income taxes, corporate income taxes, payroll taxes, estate taxes and all federal excise taxes - by major city area, county, congressional district and state, illustrating the striking diversity of impact that federal tax policies established by Congress have on communities across the US. It should come as no surprise that America's richest cities also bear the nation's highest federal tax burdens. The average household in Stamford-Norwalk paid a staggering $82,745 in federal taxes in 2004 - more than double any other city in America. The number one low-tax city in America is the McAllen-Endinburg-Mission are...

The FY 2012 HUD Appropriations Act requires that HUD apply ``an inflation factor as established by the Secretary, by notice published in the Federal Register'' to adjust FY 2012 renewal funding for the tenant-based rental assistance voucher program or housing choice voucher (HCV) program of each PHA. For FY 2011 and FY 2010, renewal funding was based on annual adjustment factors (AAFs) and HUD published separate Renewal Funding AAFs for this purpose. The Renewal Funding AAFs, based only on Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for rents and utilities, have been replaced by inflation factors that incorporate additional economic indices to measure the expected change in the per unit cost (PUC) for the HCV program.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to classify the eyelid weight into class II (special controls). The eyelid weight may be adhered to the outer skin of the upper eyelid (external eyelid weight) or implanted into the upper eyelid (implantable eyelid weight), and is intended for the gravity assisted treatment of lagophthalmos (incomplete eyelid closure). FDA is also giving notice of its intent to exempt the external eyelid weight device from the premarket notification requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). After considering public comments on the proposed classification, FDA will publish a final regulation classifying this device type.

The recent inability of various measuring tools to warn of the economic slowdown has demonstrated a need to develop new instruments that can better reflect the conditions affecting the modern market. There were relatively few persuasive warnings during the 1920s that the Great Depression was on its way, and few argued convincingly during the last decade that the most recent economic crisis was near. So it is easy to conclude that because we did not see those events coming, nothing could have been done to prevent them.

The FY 2013 HUD Appropriations Act requires that HUD apply ``an inflation factor as established by the Secretary, by notice published in the Federal Register'' to adjust FY 2013 renewal funding for the Tenant-based Rental Assistance Program or Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program of each PHA. For FY 2011 and FY 2010, renewal funding was based on annual adjustment factors (AAFs) and HUD published separate Renewal Funding AAFs for this purpose. These Renewal Funding AAFs, based only on Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for rents and utilities, were replaced for FY 2012 by inflation factors that incorporate additional economic indices to measure the expected change in the per unit cost (PUC) for the HCV program. The methodology for FY 2013 remains unchanged from that used in FY 2012.
