Summary:

Each year, the President submits a budget to Congress. The President's budget is not a single object or device but an analysis and compilation of separate presentations of hundreds of budget accounts, covering all fiscal activities of the federal government, including "off-budget" accounts, such as the Social Security trust funds and the Postal Service fund. The budget comprises a wealth of information in a daunting array of schedules, tables, graphs, and narrative summaries. The comprehensiveness of the President's budget is its principal strength, but its sheer size and complexity can be overwhelming for many readers. For example, the President's fiscal year 1997 budget spanned six volumes and contained more than 2,100 pages. GAO developed this compendium of accounts to give readers a convenient way to sort through the fiscal structure of the federal government and to determine the level of budgetary resources--used, estimated, or requested by fiscal year--for individual accounts.
