[5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)].
SUMMARY: These reports provide information on the assets of money 
market mutual funds which the Federal Reserve System uses in the 
construction of the monetary aggregates.
    Final approval under OMB delegated authority of the extension with 
revision of the following report(s):
    1. Report title: Monthly Survey of Selected Deposits and the Annual 
Supplement to the Monthly Survey of Selected Deposits.

Agency form number: FR 2042 and FR 2042a
OMB Docket number: 7100-0066
Frequency: Monthly and annually
Reporters: Commercial and savings banks
Annual reporting hours: 6,825
Estimated average hours per response: 1.00
Number of respondents: 525

Small businesses are affected.
    General description of report: This information collection is 
voluntary [12 U.S.C. Sec. 248(a)(2)]. The individual respondent data on 
amounts outstanding and on interest expense for the various deposit 
categories are given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. Sec. 552(b)(4)]. 
Data on interest rates paid on deposits are made available to the 
public on request.

SUMMARY: The reports collect detailed information on amounts, offering 
rates, interest expense, and fees on various types of retail deposits 
from a stratified sample of BIF-insured commercial and savings banks. 
The revisions are designed in part to make the data collected more 
accurately reflect deposit pricing. In addition, other changes 
eliminate items no longer deemed necessary to conducting monetary 
policy. The Federal Reserve uses data from the FR 2042 and FR 2042a in 
a number of ways, including construction and interpretation of the 
monetary aggregates, measuring elasticities in money demand equations, 
and assessing the changing behavior of banks in pricing deposit 
accounts.

    Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, September 22, 
1994.
William W. Wiles,
Secretary of the Board.
