Abstract
Most economists would doubtless reject the idea that policy makers or the public should judge budgets solely in terms of a single summary concept, surplus or deficit. Yet there is an undoubted demand for a single statistic which provides at least a rough-and-ready summary of the fiscal position. The attempt to specify such a single statistic has given rise to controversy for many years.
