This study empirically investigates the impact of the federal budget deficit on the nominal
interest rate yield on high grade long term tax free municipal bonds. Within a system that
includes income tax rates, international capital flows, and the primary budget deficit, which
excludes net interest payments by the Treasury, co-integration and error-correction model
estimation leads to the conclusion that the primary budget deficit acted to raise this interest
rate yield over the 1973-1996 study period but that the causality was not bi-directional.
