| 00-24217 | Direct Investment Surveys: BE-577, Direct Transactions of U.S. Reporter With Foreign Affiliate | Proposed Rule | This document sets forth proposed rules to amend the reporting requirements for the quarterly BE-577, Direct Transactions of U.S. Reporter With Foreign Affiliate. The Department of Commerce, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed and/or continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The BE-577 survey is a mandatory survey and is conducted quarterly by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), U.S. Department of Commerce, under the International Investment and Trade in Services Survey Act. BEA will send BE-577 survey forms to potential respondents each quarter; responses will be due within 30 days after the close of each fiscal quarter, except for the final quarter of the fiscal year, when reports should be filed within 45 days. The survey is a cut-off sample survey that obtains data on transactions and positions between U.S.-owned foreign business enterprises and their U.S. parents. The change proposed by BEA in the reporting requirements to be implemented in these proposed rules is to reduce respondent burden, particularly for small companies, by increasing the exemption level for the survey--the level below which reports are not required--from $20 million to $30 million in total assets, sales or gross operating revenues, or net income (positive or negative) of the U.S.-owned foreign business enterprise. Raising the exemption level lowers the number of reports that otherwise would have to be filed, thus reducing respondent burden. BEA is also proposing changes in the content of survey that, on balance, do not affect respondent burden. | 2000-09-21 | 2000 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/09/21/00-24217/direct-investment-surveys-be-577-direct-transactions-of-us-reporter-with-foreign-affiliate | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-09-21/pdf/00-24217.pdf | Commerce Department; Economic Analysis Bureau | 54,118 | This document sets forth proposed rules to amend the reporting requirements for the quarterly BE-577, Direct Transactions of U.S. Reporter With Foreign Affiliate.
