Financial Highlights
The
USPTO is a self-sufficient federal agency that funds the cost of its operations
through product and service fees paid by its customers – applicants
for and owners of patents and trademarks. Over 84 percent of Patent and
Trademark fees collected are set by statute. The USPTO uses ABC techniques
to report costs incurred for operations. This information is used to establish
non-statutory fees for products and services at an amount that recovers
full costs. The ABC data is also one of many factors considered when determining
statutory fee amounts.
The following presents the USPTO’s FY 2005 financial highlights
with regard to budgetary resources and requirements, along with results
