FlowofFunds Social Accounts for the Farm Sector Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Flow-of-funds accounts and component sources-and-uses-of-funds statements relate changes in balance sheet accounts to income statements, describing movement from one balance sheet to the next. While the Federal Reserve System compiles a farm business sector sources-and- uses-of-funds statement consistent with and part of the national flow-of-funds accounts, the statement is not definitionally and conceptually consistent with published farm income and balance sheet accounts. An alternative farm sector sources-and-uses-of-funds statement is proposed that contains these features, and its potential applications and extensions are delineated. 1971 Conseil International pour lExploration de la Mer.
