Department of the Treasury federal obligations in Mississippi

A very thin Treasury file on Mississippi

Department of the Treasury as awarding agency, Mississippi as place-of-performance: 163 records summing to $2,341,218,658.06. A Department of the Treasury award coded outside MS is out. An award in Mississippi from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Mississippi (MS) excludes Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Alabama. A New Orleans-coded award is LA even if a payee later banks in Jackson. IRS, Fiscal Service, and other Treasury bureaus are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 020.

One hundred sixty-three awards against $2,341,218,658.06 is a very thin, high-mean file. A handful of fiscal vehicles can dominate the dollar total. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 163 as 163 unique individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. The overlay Department of the Treasury in Mississippi is the both-keys table. Mississippi federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of the Treasury is the agency book without an MS filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Jackson is not published as a metro cut. Do not treat 163 as a list of unique Mississippi taxpayers. Correlation is not causation: Mississippi did not “cause” $2,341,218,658.06 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 020 × MS only.

Refunds are a different series

$2,341,218,658.06 does not measure individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 020 and an MS place-of-performance tag. IRS, Fiscal Service, and other Treasury bureaus are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 020.

Do not treat 163 awards as a census of individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Mississippi federal spending or Department of the Treasury matched $2,341,218,658.06 and 163, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Louisiana, Alabama, and Tennessee Treasury joins are other pairs, not addends.

Mississippi is not a Jackson-campus map

Place of performance MS is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Mississippi (MS) excludes Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Alabama. A New Orleans-coded award is LA even if a payee later banks in Jackson. Recipient address can differ from that state tag. Jackson, Gulfport, Hattiesburg, and the rest of the counties share one MS stamp.

Jackson is not published as a metro cut. Do not treat 163 as a list of unique Mississippi taxpayers. This packet does not split $2,341,218,658.06 by city, county, or named facility. 163 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Few rows, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $2,341,218,658.06 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Mississippi confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Mississippi’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 163-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $2,341,218,658.06.

How to cite Treasury in Mississippi

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of the Treasury (agency 020) obligated $2,341,218,658.06 on 163 awards coded to Mississippi. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses.

Prefer Department of the Treasury in Mississippi if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Mississippi federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MS. Department of the Treasury is the 020 parent without the MS filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $2,341,218,658.06. A usable footnote names Department of the Treasury, Mississippi, $2,341,218,658.06, and 163. The compact headline $2.34 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $14.36 million is $2,341,218,658.06 divided by 163. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
