[[underlined]] FY 1980 - Budget (Schedule D) [[/underlined]]

The overall operating budget of the Institution for FY 1980, including all appropriated and nonappropriated funds, shows gross income of $196,122,000, compared to $183,266,000 in FY 1979, and net income, after deduction of the expenses of auxiliary and bureau activities, of $134,340,000, compared to $127,652,000 this year. The gross income increase of $12,856,000 (or 7%) is due primarily to federal appropriations (+$6,538,000) and Unrestricted Trust Funds (+$5,592,000) with Special Purpose, Restricted and Federal Grant and Contract Funds expected to remain relatively constant. As described more fully below, there is a slight decline from FY 1979 to FY 1980 in the [[underlined]] net [[/underlined]] funds provided by Unrestricted Trust Funds.
