2. Implementation of Budgets for Government-managed Funds

In 2012, revenue of government-managed funds nationwide came to 3.751701 trillion yuan, while expenditure amounted to 3.606904 trillion yuan. Below is a breakdown of these figures.

Receipts of central government-managed funds totaled 331.344 billion yuan, 110.8% of the budgeted figure and an increase of 5.8%. Receipts exceeded the budgeted figure mainly because funds from the surcharge on electricity generated from renewable energy sources were included in last year's budget for the first time in accordance with the law, so as to support the development of these energy sources. Adding the 82.221 billion yuan carried forward from 2011, revenue of central government-managed funds totaled 413.565 billion yuan in 2012. Expenditure of central government-managed funds totaled 335.463 billion yuan, 88.1% of the budgeted figure and an increase of 8.1%. This total consists of 217.517 billion yuan of central government spending and 117.946 billion yuan in transfer payments to local governments. A total of 78.102 billion yuan from central government-managed funds was carried forward to 2013. The expenditure of central government-managed funds was less than the budgeted figure mainly because some projects were not implemented in 2012 due to insufficient preparatory work, while others were granted less funding in accordance with the principle of determining spending based on revenue.

Revenue of funds managed by local governments reached 3.420357 trillion yuan, a decrease of 10.5% mainly due to fewer receipts from the sale of state-owned land use rights. Adding the 117.946 billion yuan in transfer payments from central government-managed funds, the total revenue of local government-managed funds came to 3.538303 trillion yuan. Expenditure of local government-managed funds totaled 3.389387 trillion yuan, down 10.3%. This total includes 2.841819 trillion yuan of spending from the proceeds of selling state-owned land use rights. Surplus revenue from local government-managed funds was carried forward to 2013.

3. Implementation of Budgets for State Capital Operations

In 2012, revenue from state capital operations nationwide reached 157.284 billion yuan, and total expenditure reached 147.966 billion yuan. The following is a breakdown of these figures.

Revenue from state capital operations of the central government totaled 97.083 billion yuan, 115% of the budgeted figure and an increase of 26.9%. Revenue exceeded the budgeted figure mainly because the proportion of profits from state capital operations of tobacco enterprises collected by the central government was raised five percentage points and the economic returns of enterprises in some industries exceeded expectations in 2011 (revenue from state capital operations of state-owned enterprises is collected as a certain proportion of their profits for the previous year). Adding the 3.107 billion yuan carried forward from 2011, revenue totaled 100.19 billion yuan. Expenditure on the central government's state capital operations came to 92.979 billion yuan, 106.3% of the budgeted figure and an increase of 20.8%. This figure includes 5 billion yuan, up 25%, spent on social security and other areas related to improving quality of life as planned in last year's public finance budgets. Surplus revenue from the central government's state capital operations was used to shore up the capital bases of the five largest power corporations (China Huaneng Group, China Datang Corporation, China Huadian Corporation, China Guodian Corporation, and China Power Investment Corporation), details of which the State Council reported to the Standing Committee of the Eleventh NPC.

Revenue from local governments' state capital operations totaled 60.201 billion yuan, and total expenditure amounted to 54.987 billion yuan.
