General Government Revenues by Source
Source: Revenue Reports by General Accounting Division of Maryland Slate Comptroller's Office, June 30, 1998.
Other taxes increased from the previous year primarily due to an increase in revenues from recordation taxes
on real property transfers and estate taxes.
Charges for services increased from the previous year primarily due to increased recoveries from hospitals,
nursing homes, and patients. Additionally, transportation revenues increased for port activities and Transportation
Authority tolls.
Interest on investments increased from the previous year, due to greater investable balances.
Federal revenues after the reclassifications decreased over the previous year primarily because of a reduction
in medical programs cost and a reduction in federally funded transportation spending. As a result of the
reclassification of certain revenues in 1997 from Federal revenues to other revenues to conform the 1997
presentation to 1998's presentation, other revenues decreased by $172,434,000.
Changes in levels of general governmental expenditures for major functions from the previous year (excluding
capital projects) are shown in the following tabulation (amounts expressed in thousands):
