Tax-Exempt Bonds, 2005

by Cynthia Belmonte

S

tate and local governments can issue bonds to

finance a variety of projects, including construction or improvement of essential facilities

and infrastructure, as well as to help provide services

for their citizens.1 Bonds issued by State and local

governments are classified as either “governmental”

or “private activity,” depending on whether the proceeds are used and secured by public or private entities and resources. When a bond is issued, the issuer

is obligated to repay the borrowed bond proceeds, at

a specified rate of interest, by some future date. For

Federal income tax purposes, investors who purchase

governmental bonds and certain types of private activity bonds are allowed to exclude the bond interest

from their gross incomes.2 This tax exemption effectively lowers the borrowing cost incurred by tax-exempt debt issuers, since holders of tax-exempt bonds

are generally willing to accept an interest rate lower

than that earned on comparable taxable bonds.

Both governmental and private activity bonds

are obligations issued by or on behalf of State and local governmental units; it is the use of proceeds that

differentiates the two. Governmental bond proceeds

finance essential government operations, facilities,

and services that are for general public use. Private

activity bond proceeds are used by a private entity.

Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 141 defines a

bond as a private activity bond if either of the following applies: 1) the private business tests set forth in

IRC section 141(b); or 2) the private loan financing

test set forth in IRC section 141(c).3 Over the years,

Congress has deemed certain types of private activiCynthia Belmonte is an economist with the Special Studies

Special Projects Section. This data release was prepared

under the direction of Barry W. Johnson, Chief.

ties necessary for the public good and, therefore, has

enacted legislation to make them eligible for tax-exempt financing. These types of qualified bonds are

defined in IRC section 141(e).4 In addition to these

requirements, the interest exclusion for tax-exempt

bonds is not allowed for arbitrage bonds and bonds

not in registered form.5, 6

Bond Volume, by Term and Type of Issue

Issue Year 2005 marked a record year for tax-exempt

bond issuances. Governmental bonds worth $364.5

billion were issued in 2005, a 10.3-percent increase

over the $330.4 billion issued in 2004. The majority of this amount, more than 85 percent, was raised

through the issue of long-term bonds (i.e., having

maturities of 13 months or more). Long-term bond

issues are mainly used to fund construction or other

capital improvement projects. Most short-term governmental bonds are issued as tax anticipation notes

(TANs), revenue anticipation notes (RANs), or bond

anticipation notes (BANs). TANs and RANs generally mature within 1 year of issuance, at which time

the proceeds are paid from specific tax receipts or

other revenue sources. BANs are often used to cover

certain upfront costs associated with a long-term

project for which a future bond will be issued. A

BAN is later paid off from the proceeds of the future

bond issue or by a renewal BAN. Combined, TANs,

RANs, and BANs comprised 90.9 percent of the

$53.2 billion of short-term tax-exempt governmental

bond proceeds for 2005.

Total bond issuance is composed of both new

money issues and refunding issues. The proceeds

of new money issues finance new capital projects,

while proceeds of refunding issues retire outstanding

debt. The dollar volume of new money issuances of

1 The term “State” includes the District of Columbia and any possession of the United States.

2 In addition, for State income tax purposes, some States allow for the exclusion of interest on bonds issued by government agencies within their own States, thus increasing

156

the benefit to bondholders.

3 The private business tests of IRC section 141(b) define a bond as a private activity bond if both of the following criteria are met: 1) more than 10 percent of the bond

proceeds are used for a private business purpose; and, 2) more than 10 percent of the bond debt service is derived from private business use and is secured by privately used

property. The private loan financing test of IRC section 141(c) defines a bond as a private activity bond if the amount of proceeds used to (directly or indirectly) finance

loans to nongovernmental persons exceeds the lesser of $5 million or 5 percent of the proceeds.

4 Qualified bonds, termed tax-exempt private activity bonds in this article, include “exempt facility bonds,” qualified mortgage bonds, qualified veterans’ mortgage bonds,

qualified small issue bonds, qualified student loan bonds, qualified redevelopment bonds, and qualified section 501(c)(3) bonds (all of which are defined in the “Explanation

of Terms” section at the end of this article). Examples of exempt facilities include airports; docks and wharves; sewage facilities; solid waste disposal facilities; qualified

residential rental projects; and facilities for the local furnishing of electricity or gas. Qualified section 501(c)(3) bonds are issued by State and local governments to finance

the activities of charitable and similar organizations that are tax-exempt under IRC section 501(c)(3). The primary beneficiaries of these bonds are hospitals, universities,

and organizations that provide low-income housing or assisted living facilities.

5 An arbitrage bond is one in which any portion of the proceeds is intentionally invested in higher-yielding investments, or is used to replace proceeds which have been

intentionally invested in higher-yielding investments. Certain rules allow for arbitrage earnings with respect to tax-exempt bonds within a specified time period, so long as

these earnings are rebated to the Department of the Treasury.

6 A registered bond is defined as: “a bond whose owner is designated on records maintained by a registrar, the ownership of which cannot be transferred without the

registrar recording the transfer on its records.” (From the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board’s Glossary of Municipal Securities Terms <http://www.msrb.org/msrb1/

glossary/>. See also IRC section 149(a) for additional information.)

Tax-Exempt Bonds, 2005

Statistics of Income Bulletin | Fall 2007

governmental bonds decreased 6.0 percent between

2004 and 2005, from $208.2 billion to $195.6 billion, while refunding issues increased 38.2 percent,

from $122.2 billion to $168.9 billion. Of the $311.3

billion of long-term tax-exempt governmental bond

proceeds issued during 2005, refunding issues comprised more than half (51.3 percent). New money

issues made up the difference (48.7 percent). This

marks the first time since 1993 that the amount of

refunding long-term issues exceeded that of new

money long-term issues. Figure A shows the total

amount of bonds issued, classified by type of issue

(new money or refunding), as well as term of the issue (long- or short-term), for both governmental and

tax-exempt private activity bonds.

Tax-exempt private activity bond issues totaled

$110.3 billion in 2005, a 17.4-percent increase over

the $94.0 billion issued in 2004. For 2005, as in

years past, the vast majority of tax-exempt private

activity bond proceeds, $109.5 billion (over 99 percent), were long-term. These long-term proceeds

were split almost equally between new money issues

and refunding issues—$54.7 billion of new money,

compared to $54.8 billion of refunding tax-exempt

private activity bonds.

Long-Term Bond Volume, by Selected Purpose

Figure B illustrates the composition of long-term taxexempt bonds, by selected purpose as well as type of

issue, for both governmental and private activity bond

issues. More than half (60.7 percent) of the dollar

volume of all long-term governmental bonds issued

in 2005 was used to finance projects related to education, utilities, and transportation. Another 30 percent

of the proceeds from long-term governmental bonds

issued in 2005 was used for “other bond purposes”

(i.e., specific purpose(s) did not apply or were not

separately allocated by the issuer). For all but two of

the bond purposes shown in Figure B, transportation

and health and hospital—more proceeds were put toward refunding prior bond issues than financing new

capital projects.

Qualified section 501(c)(3) bonds, which include

total qualified hospital bonds and qualified nonhospital bonds issued to benefit entities exempt from

income tax under IRC section 501(c)(3), combined,

accounted for 48.2 percent of the dollar amount of

long-term private activity bonds issued for 2005.

2004 to 2005. States with significant changes in new

money long-term governmental bond issues from

2004 to 2005 include Nebraska, whose issuance

more than tripled, from $.5 billion in 2004 to $1.5

billion in 2005; Mississippi, whose issuance rose

138.0 percent, from slightly less than $.7 billion in

2004 to $1.6 billion in 2005; California, whose issuance fell 42.8 percent, from $33.5 billion in 2004 to

$19.2 billion in 2005; Georgia, whose issuance fell

35.5 percent, from $4.2 billion in 2004 to $2.7 bil-

lion in 2005; and Michigan, whose issuance fell 26.9

percent, from $4.0 billion in 2004 to $3.0 billion in

2005. States with significant increases in new money

long-term tax-exempt private activity bond issues

from 2004 to 2005 include the District of Columbia,

whose issuance rose 178.1 percent, from slightly less

than $.4 billion in 2004 to $1.0 billion in 2005, and

Michigan, whose issuance more than doubled, from

$1.1 billion in 2004 to $2.3 billion in 2005.

Figure C presents the amount of bonds issued,

for the top 15 States in terms of total dollar volume

of new money long-term tax-exempt bonds issued

for 2005, for both governmental and private activity bond issuances. Combined, these 15 States accounted for over two-thirds of the total amount issued. About $79.4 billion (38.5 percent) of the total

$206.2 billion of new money long-term tax-exempt

bonds issued for 2005 were issued by authorities in

the following five States: California (11.7 percent),

New York (10.0 percent), Texas (7.2 percent), Florida

(5.7 percent), and Illinois (4.1 percent). According to

2005 Census estimates, together, these five States accounted for 36.7 percent of the total U.S. population.7

Tax-exempt private activity bonds are subject

to State volume limitations, or volume caps. Most

types of private activity bonds are subject to the unified State volume cap, which limits the aggregate

dollar amount of bonds that each State can issue

annually. Other types of private activity bonds are

subject to separate volume limitations based on the

types of projects being financed (Figure D). The

unified State volume cap is adjusted annually for

population growth, and, effective January 1, 2003,

the volume cap was indexed for inflation.8 Refunding bonds are not subject to volume cap limitations,

as long as there is no increase in the principal amount

of the outstanding bond. Issuers can elect to carry

forward unused volume cap for a specified bond purpose, and bonds issued with respect to the specified

bond purpose during the following 3 calendar years

are not subject to the volume cap. Figure E shows

the total amount of new money long-term tax-exempt

private activity bond issuance, new issues subject to

the unified State volume cap, amounts applied from

prior-year carryforward elections, and volume cap

allocations, by State, for 2005. The total amount of

new bonds issued by a State can exceed that State’s

total volume cap limitation in instances where bonds

are issued for purposes other than those subject to the

unified State volume cap and where amounts are being carried forward from previous years’ allocations.

Unlike private activity bonds, governmental

bonds are generally not subject to the volume cap;

however, if more than $15 million of the proceeds of

an issue are used in private use or disproportionate

use, then the amount in excess of $15 million is subject to the volume cap, and the issuer is required to

report the amount of the State volume cap allocated

to the governmental issue.9, 10 For 2005, issuers reported allocating a combined $208.7 million of State

volume cap to the total $364.5 billion of total governmental bond issues. This indicates some private

business involvement, but not in an amount sufficient

to satisfy the 10-percent use criterion for private activity bonds for each governmental bond issue.

Data Sources and Limitations

The data presented in this data release are based on

the populations of Forms 8038, Information Return

for Tax-Exempt Private Activity Bond Issues, and

Forms 8038-G, Information Return for Tax-Exempt

Governmental Obligations, filed with the Internal

Revenue Service for bonds issued during Calendar

Year 2005. The data exclude returns filed for commercial paper transactions, as well as issues that are

loans from the proceeds of another tax-exempt bond

issue (pooled financings).

Bond issuers were required to file these taxexempt bond information returns by the 15th day

of the second calendar month after the close of the

calendar quarter in which the bond was issued.

However, in an effort to include as many applicable

returns for a particular issue year as possible, the

study period extended well beyond this timeframe.

The study includes returns processed from January

1, 2005, to April 22, 2007, for bonds issued in 2005.

Where possible, data from amended returns filed

and processed before the cutoff date were included.

7 The resident population estimates were produced by the U.S. Bureau of the Census and published in Internal Revenue Bulletin No. 2005-8 (Notice 2005-16).

8 For 2005, the volume cap was the greater of $80 per capita or $239,180,000.

Volume caps for U.S. possessions, with the exception of Puerto Rico, are determined under

IRC section 146(d)(4).

9 Disproportionate use occurs when the proceeds to be used for the private business use exceed the amount of proceeds used for the related governmental use.

10 IRC section 141(b)(5) states that a governmental bond will be treated as a private activity bond if: (1) the “nonqualified amount” exceeds $15 million, but is less than the

amount needed to meet any of the private activity bond tests; and (b) the issuer does not allocate a portion of its volume cap to the issue in an amount equal to the excess of

such nonqualified amount over $15 million.

Late-filed returns for tax-exempt bonds issued during 2005 processed after the cutoff date were not

included in the statistics.

During statistical processing, returns were subject to thorough testing and correction procedures to

ensure data accuracy and validity. Additional checks

were conducted to identify and exclude duplicate

returns. In some instances, returns with incomplete

information, mathematical errors, or other reporting

anomalies were edited to resolve internal inconsistencies. In other cases, it was not possible to reconcile reporting discrepancies. Thus, a certain amount

Exempt facility bond—Bond issue of which

95 percent or more of the net proceeds are used to

finance a tax-exempt facility (as listed in IRC sections 142(a)(1) through (13) and 142(k)). These

facilities include airports, docks and wharves, mass

commuting facilities, facilities for the furnishing of

water, sewage facilities, solid waste disposal facilities, qualified residential rental projects, facilities for

the local furnishing of electric energy or gas, local

district heating or cooling facilities, qualified hazardous waste facilities, high-speed intercity rail facilities, environmental enhancements of hydroelectric

generating facilities, and qualified public educational

facilities. The Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993

created a new category of bonds, qualified enterprise

zone facility bonds, that may be issued for certain

businesses in “empowerment zones” or “enterprise

communities.” Empowerment Zone and Enterprise

Community designations are made by the Secretaries

of Agriculture and Housing and Urban Development

and last for a 10-year period. The Taxpayer Relief

Act of 1997 provided certain economically depressed

census tracts within the District of Columbia designation as the “D.C. Enterprise Zone.” Qualified

enterprise zone facility bonds are generally subject

to the same rules as exempt facility bonds. The Job

Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 created

section 1400L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986

to provide various tax benefits for the area of New

York City damaged or affected by the terrorist attack

d—Data deleted to avoid disclosure of information for specific bonds when compared to other published data. However, the data are included in the appropriate totals.

[1] These amounts were calculated using data reported on Part II of Form 8038 for those types of issue subject to the unified State volume cap, and include bonds issued for

the following purposes: mass commuting facilities, water furnishing facilities, sewage facilities, solid waste disposal facilities, qualified residential rental projects, local

electricity or gas furnishing facilities, local district heating or cooling facilities, qualified hazardous waste facilities, high-speed intercity rail facilities, qualified mortgage bonds,

qualified small issue bonds, qualified student loan bonds, and qualified redevelopment bonds. No distinction was made for governmentally-owned solid waste or high-speed

intercity rail facilities (which are not subject to the volume cap). As a result, figures could be slightly overstated.

[2] As reported on Form 8038, line 44b. An issuing authority can elect to carry forward its unused volume cap for one or more carryforward purposes (see IRC section

146(f)). If the election is made, bonds issued with respect to a specified carryforward purpose are not subject to the volume cap under IRC section 146(a) during the 3

calendar years following the calendar year in which the carryforward arose, but only to the extent that the amount of such bonds does not exceed the amount of the

carryforward elected for that purpose.

[3] The amount of volume cap is based on State population. For 2005, the volume cap was the greater of $80 per capita or $239.2 million ($239,180,000). For U.S.

Possessions with populations less than the population of the least populous State, the rules of IRC section 146(d)(4) apply. The resident population estimates were produced

by the U.S. Bureau of the Census and published in Internal Revenue Bulletin No. 2005-8 (Notice 2005-16).

[4] U.S. Possessions include Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

on September 11, 2001. Section 1400L(d) authorizes

the issuance of an additional type of exempt facility

bond, namely, “Liberty Bonds.” Liberty Bonds are

subject to the following additional requirements: (a)

95 percent or more of the net proceeds of such issue must be used for qualified project costs; (b) the

bond must be issued by the State of New York or any

political subdivision thereof; (c) the Governor of the

State of New York or the Mayor of the City of New

York must designate the bond for purposes of section 1400L(d); and (d) the bond must be issued after

March 9, 2002, and before January 1, 2005. The

maximum aggregate face amount of bonds that may

be designated as Liberty Bonds is $8 billion.

Governmental bond—Any obligation issued by

a State or local government unit that is not a private

activity bond (see below). The interest on a govern-

mental bond is excluded from gross income under

IRC section 103.

Nongovernmental output property bond—Bonds

used to finance the acquisition of property used by a

nongovernmental entity in connection with an output

facility (such as an electric or gas power project).

This bond must meet additional tests under IRC section 141(d).

Pooled financing—An arrangement whereby a

portion of the proceeds of a governmental bond issue

is used to make loans to other governmental units.

Private activity bond—Bond issue of which more

than 10 percent of the proceeds are used for any private business use, and more than 10 percent of the

payment of the principal or interest is either secured

by an interest in property to be used for private business use (or payment for such property), or is derived

163

Tax-Exempt Bonds, 2005

Statistics of Income Bulletin | Fall 2007

from payments for property (or borrowed money)

used for a private business use. A bond is also considered a private activity bond if the amount of the

proceeds used to make or finance loans (other than

loans described in IRC section 141(c)(2)) to persons

other than governmental units exceeds the lesser of 5

percent of the proceeds or $5 million.

Qualified mortgage bond—Bond issue of which

the proceeds (except issuance costs and reasonably

required reserves) are used to provide financing assistance for single-family residential property, and

which meet the additional requirements in IRC section 143. Bond proceeds can be applied toward the

purchase, improvement, or rehabilitation of owneroccupied residences, as well as to finance qualified

home-improvement loans.

Qualified redevelopment bond—Bond issue of

which 95 percent or more of the net proceeds are

used to finance certain specified real property acquisition and redevelopment in blighted areas (see IRC

section 144(c) for additional requirements).

Qualified section 501(c)(3) bond—Bond issued

by State and local governments to finance the activities of charitable organizations that are tax-exempt

under IRC section 501(c)(3). A bond must meet

the following conditions to be classified as a section 501(c)(3) bond: 1) all property financed by the

net proceeds of the bond issue is to be owned by a

section 501(c)(3) organization or a governmental

unit, and 2) the bond would not be a private activity

bond if section 501(c)(3) organizations were treated

as governmental units with respect to their activities that are not related trades or businesses, and the

private activity bond definition was applied using a

5-percent threshold rather than a 10-percent threshold. The primary beneficiaries of these bonds are

private, nonprofit hospitals, colleges, and universities. A qualified hospital bond issue is one in which

95 percent or more of the net proceeds are to be used

for a hospital.

Qualified small issue bond—Bond issue generally not exceeding $1 million, and of which 95 percent or more of the net proceeds are used to finance

the acquisition of land and depreciable property or

to refund such issues. In certain instances, an elec-

164

tion to take certain capital expenditures into account

can increase the limit on bond size, from $1 million

to $10 million. These bonds may be used only to

finance manufacturing facilities and to benefit certain

first-time farmers.

Qualified student loan bond—Bond issue of

which 90 percent or more of the net proceeds are

used to make or finance student loans under a program of general application subject to the Higher

Education Act of 1965 (see IRC section 144(b)(1)(A)

for additional requirements), or of which 95 percent or more of the net proceeds are used to make

or finance student loans under a program of general

application approved by the State (see Code section

144(b)(1)(B) for additional requirements).

Qualified veterans’ mortgage bond—In general,

a bond issue of which 95 percent or more of the net

proceeds are used to finance the purchase, improvement, or rehabilitation of owner-occupied residences

for veterans who: 1) served prior to January 1, 1977;

and, 2) applied for such a mortgage prior to the date

30 years after leaving active service or January 31,

1985, whichever is later. The payment of interest

and principal must be secured by a general obligation of the State, and the bond must meet certain of

the requirements of IRC section 143. The issuance

of qualified veterans’ mortgage bonds was limited

to the following five States: Alaska, California,

Oregon, Texas, and Wisconsin, each of which had a

veterans’ mortgage bond program in effect prior to

June 22, 1984.

Tax Reform Act transition property bond—A bond

issued under transitional rules contained in the Tax

Reform Act of 1986. Proceeds from bonds issued

under these rules include issues used to fund such

items as pollution control facilities, parking facilities,

industrial parks, sports stadiums, and convention facilities. Proceeds from other bonds issued under the

transitional rules are included in this category only if

they could not be identified as another issue type.

NOTE: Additional tax-exempt bond data for 2005 (and prior years)

can be found on the SOI Web site at www.irs.gov/taxstats. (Click on

“Tax-Exempt Bonds.”) As a supplement to tables included in this

data release, various data classified by purpose of bond, type of

issue, and size of issue are also available.

[1] A given bond issue can include more than one purpose and can include both new money and refunding proceeds. Thus, the summation of number of issues by purpose or

by type of issue will sometimes exceed the total number of issues. However, the money amounts are additive to the totals.

[2] Less than 0.05 percent.

[3] For this table, "other purposes" refer to obligations for which a specific purpose either did not apply or was not clearly indicated on Form 8038.

NOTE: Detail may not add to totals because of rounding.

[1] A given bond issue can include more than one purpose. Thus, the summation of number of issues by purpose will sometimes exceed the total number of issues. However,

the money amounts are additive to the totals.

[2] U.S. Possessions include Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

[3] For purposes of this table, "other purposes" refer to obligations for which a specific purpose either did not apply or was not clearly indicated on Form 8038-G.

[1] A given bond issue can include more than one purpose. Thus, the summation of number of issues by purpose will sometimes exceed the total number of issues. However, the

money amounts are additive to the totals.

[2] For purposes of this table, certain bond purposes were combined. For this reason, data in this table will differ slightly from the data in Table 2. The "all other bonds,

combined" category here includes all issues for which a specific purpose either did not apply or was not clearly indicated on Form 8038, as well as bonds issued for: mass

commuting facilities, local electricity or gas furnishing facilities, local district heating or cooling facilities, qualified hazardous waste facilities, facilities issued under a transitional

rule of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, qualified enterprise zone facility bonds, qualified empowerment zone facility bonds, District of Columbia Enterprise Zone facility bonds,

Liberty bonds, qualified veterans' mortgage bonds, qualified student loan bonds, qualified redevelopment bonds, and nongovernmental output property bonds.

[3] U.S. Possessions include Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

NOTE: Detail may not add to totals because of rounding.
