United States Patent and Trademark Office President's Budget, FY 2013.

摘要

The FY 2013 Budget requests projected fee collections of $2,953 million, which will fund requirements of $2,822 million and 12,212 full-time equivalent (FTE), resulting in $154 million in excess of planned spending to be added to the operating reserve after adjusting for $23 million in other income. This request is necessary to continue implementing the USPTO 2010-2015 Strategic Plan, which directly contributes to the Department of Commerces (DOC) theme of Economic Growth.
