Abstract:
The interest in the level of National Debt accumulated by countries has peaked recently due to difficulty in repayment or refinancing of maturing debt experienced by a number of countries. National debt is defined as the accumulated fiscal deficit owed by a country’s central or Federal government. Current efforts in determining a sustainable level of debt are focused on establishing a global standard for sustainable level of debt as well as annual deficit for a group of countries. These standards are set irrespective of a country’s economic structure or its level of development. This paper attempts to develop a model that will estimate the level of national debt with reference to economic factors unique to the U.S.
