Source: Ministry of Finance Latest actual data: 2010 Fiscal assumptions: Macroeconomic, monetary and fiscal projections for 2012 and the medium term are consistent with the policies agreed to between the IMF staff and the authorities in the context of the Extended Fund Facility (EFF). The data include fiscal data revisions for 2006?09. These revisions rectify a number of shortfalls with earlier statistics. First, government-controlled enterprises whose sales cover less than 50 percent of production costs have been reclassified into the general government sector, in line with Eurostat guidelines. A total of 17 such enterprises or entities were identified and included, including a number of large loss-making entities. The inclusion implies that the debt of these entities (7¼ percent of GDP) is now included in headline general government debt data and that their annual losses increase the annual deficit (to the extent their called guarantees were not already reflected). Second, the revisions reflect better information on arrears (including tax refund arrears, arrears on lump sum payments to retiring civil servant pensioners, and arrears to health sector suppliers), as well as corrections of social security balances on account of corrected imputed interest payments, double counting of revenues, and other inaccuracies. Finally, new information on swaps also became available and further helps explain the upward revision in debt data.

Due to data limitations, most series begin 2001. Fiscal assumptions: Fiscal projections are based on the January 2012 CBO baseline adjusted for the IMF staff's policy and macroeconomic assumptions. The key near-term policy assumptions include a continuation of the payroll tax cut during 2012, an extension of emergency unemployment benefits into 2013 (one year beyond the current law), and an automatic sequestration of spending from 2013 triggered by the failure of the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction. In the medium term, IMF staff assumes that Congress will continue to make regular adjustments to the AMT parameters and Medicare payments (DocFix), will extend certain traditional programs (such as the research and development tax credit), the Bush tax cuts for the middle-class will be extended permanently, but the Bush tax cuts for the higher-income taxpayers will be allowed to expire from 2014 (one year later than planned under the current law). The fiscal projections are adjusted to reflect the IMF staff?s forecasts of key macroeconomic and financial variables, different accounting treatment of the financial sector support, and are converted to the general government basis.
