According to the study, federal expenditures in Utah during the fiscal year ended September 80, 1961, totaled $884,788,000, or about $200 for and child residing every man, woman, ' in the state. This amount was 10 below the U.8. average of $2,451 per capita and 12 under the Mountain States average of $210. By comparison, per capita federal expenditures in Utah during 1970 were 22 greater than the U.8. average. Not only has Utah's relative share of federal mending been declining, but its share of the federal tax burden has been rising. In 1970 Utah paid about 0.88 of au federal taxes collected. By 1962 this percentage had increased to 0.50. In other words, Utah is a proportionately larger percentage all federal taxes collected in the U.8., while it is the beneficiary of a proportionately smaller share of all federal spending. Foundation analysts attribute the relative decline in federal spending within Utah to programs involving direct payments to individuals. Despite the feet that Utah has 0.66 id the nation's population, Utah residents receive only 0.41 of all Social Security (including Medicare) payments. This smaller percentage in Utah is aceoun- - The ted for by the fart that the state has basically a young population. Only 7.6 pf Utah's population is age 65 or for the over, compared with 11.6 nation as a whole. Another feetor responsible for the smaller direct payment total hi Utah is that Utahns do not avail themselves of states. federal assistance programs to the same extent as residents of other states. During fiscal 1981, Utah residents received only 0.22 of the total federal fends allocated for supplemental income payments and 0.27 of the funds for food stamps.

In addition to direct expenditures, the Foundation report notes that the federal government also guarantees certain loans and. provides insurance protection for 'mortgages, property improvements and crops. While these items are not actual outlays, they could result in federal expenditures at some future date in case of default or claim. During the 1981 fiscal year, federal loan, guarantees and insurance programs totaled $76.7 billion, of which Utah's share amounted to $1,286 of the total of all million, or 1.68 Federal spending impact in Utah drops markedly . e Some of the people from this' vicinity that went to Provo this week sold her 112 pound reserved champion sheep to Intermountaih Farmers for $3.25 a pound.
