“Total Income” column includes transfers made between the OASI Trust Fund and the General Fund of the Treasury that are not included in the separate components of income shown. These transfers consist of payments for (1) the cost of noncontributory wage credits for military service before 1957 and (2) the cost of benefits to certain uninsured persons who attained age 72 before 1968. In December 2005, $350 million was transferred from the OASI Trust Fund to the General Fund of the Treasury for the cost of pre-1957 military service wage credits, and a similar transfer of $90 million is projected to occur in December 2010. After December 2010 such transfers are estimated to be less than $500,000 in each year.
The “Trust fund ratio” column represents assets at the beginning of a year (which are identical to assets at the end of the prior year shown in the “Amount at end of year” column) as a percentage of cost for the year.
