Note: The alternative fiscal scenario incorporates the assumptions that the automatic spending reductions specified by the Budget Control Act for 2014
through 2021 do not take effect, that all expiring tax provisions are extended, and that Medicare's payment rates for physicians' services (which are now
scheduled to be reduced in January 2014) are held constant. Outlays under the alternative fiscal scenario also include the incremental interest costs
associated with projected additional borrowing.
n.a. = not applicable; GDP = gross domestic product; * = between -$500 million and $500 milllion; ** = between -0.05 percent and zero.
