About Federal Receipts

What it measures

Federal Receipts (FRED series FYFR) measures total annual revenue collected by the US federal government, dominated by individual income taxes and payroll taxes, with corporate taxes, excises, and other sources making up the rest. The series is reported for each fiscal year, which runs from October through September, based on Treasury and OMB data.

Why it matters

Receipts determine how much of federal spending must be financed by borrowing, directly shaping deficits and Treasury issuance. They are also a coincident economic signal: revenue surges with strong employment, wages, and capital gains, and slumps in recessions. Tax legislation shows up here first, making the series essential for fiscal policy analysis.

How to read it

Compare receipts to nominal GDP: the ratio has historically fluctuated around a fairly stable long-run band, and large departures usually reflect tax law changes or unusual capital gains realizations rather than trend shifts. Falling receipts during an expansion suggest policy-driven revenue loss; falling receipts with a weakening economy amplify deficits. Annual frequency limits its timeliness.
