DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Notice of rate for use in Federal
debt collection and discount and rebate
evaluation.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 11 of the
Debt Collection Act of 1982, as
amended, (31 U.S.C. 3717), the
Secretary of the Treasury is responsible
for computing and publishing the
percentage rate to be used in assessing
interest charges for outstanding debts
owed to the Government. Treasury’s
Cash Management Requirements (TFM
Volume I, Part 6, Chapter 8000)
prescribe use of this rate by agencies as
a comparison point in evaluating the
cost effectiveness of a cash discount. In
addition, 5 CFR 13 15.8 of the Prompt
Payment rule on ‘‘Rebates’’ requires that
this rate be used in determining when
agencies should pay purchase card
invoices when the card issuer offers a
rebate. Notice is hereby given that the
applicable rate is 3.00 percent for
calendar year 2009.
The rate will be in effect for the
period beginning on January 1, 2009,
and ending on December 31, 2009.

Agency Enterprise Solutions Division,
Financial Management Service,
Department of the Treasury, 401 14th
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20227
(Telephone: 202–874–6650).
The rate
reflects the current value of funds to the
Treasury for use in connection with
Federal Cash Management systems and
is based on investment rates set for
purposes of Public Law 95–147, 91 Stat.
1227. Computed each year by averaging
Treasury Tax and Loan (TT&L)
investment rates for the 12-month
period ending every September 30,
rounded to the nearest whole
percentage, for applicability effective
each January 1, the rate is subject to
quarterly revisions if the annual
average, on a moving basis, changes by
2 percentage points. The rate in effect
for the calendar year 2009 reflects the
average investment rates for the 12month period that ended September 30,
2008.
