Introduction to these Financial Models

    The intent of these models is to provide a lot of information in one place by using pictures. These models will be used when doing analysis in the section called “How the United States is affected by Change”.

The financial model of a citizen will be very familiar to you. It was included for completeness. 

The US business model contains an annual business model and a balance sheet. The model can generally be scaled for most size and type of businesses. 

The basic view of the US economy model is to show the elements that affect the US economy. 

The United States model shows the elements that build to the Gross National Product. 

The federal budget model shows the elements of the federal government and the resulting deficit (at least in 2006). 

The federal balance sheet shows the elements of the government and the government’s cash balance.
