The reduction of the value of a national currency in terms of the currency of another nation. Devaluation tends to reduce domestic demand for imports in a country by raising their prices in terms of the devalued currency and to raise foreign demand for the country's exports by reducing their prices in terms of foreign currencies. Devaluation can therefore help to correct a balance of payments deficit and sometimes provide a short-term basis for economic adjustment of a national economy. 4, record 2, English, - currency%20devaluation

This situation occurred in the late 1950s and prevailed through the 1960s into the mid-1970s, beginning at first with large-scale foreign aid programs following World War II, continuing with heavy military spending abroad, and climaxing with greatly increased direct investments abroad ... As a result, the dollar was overvalued in relation to other currencies-that is, there was an oversupply of dollars and a shortage of foreign currencies-and consequently had to be devalued (as it was in 1971 and 1973). 3, record 3, English, - dollar%20glut

Defined benefit pension plans are one of the categories of pension plans that are subjected to the Supplemental Pension Plans Act. Because the benefits under such plans are set in advance under the plan's pension formula, such plans must meet very specific funding requirements. Thus, every defined benefit plan must undergo periodic valuations and if a deficit is identified, it is eliminated by as series of amortization payments to the pension fund. 4, record 5, English, - amortization%20payment

The underlying deficit for 1993-94, however, is $42. 1 billion as there are a number of one-time factors which raised the deficit in 1993-94 but which have no impact on the deficit beyond that year. These include the faster processing of refunds, lower personal income tax quarterly instalment payments, higher corporate income tax refunds relating to resource allowances, and an increase in the liability for stabilization claims. 1, record 12, English, - personal%20income%20tax%20quarterly%20instalment%20payment

Le déficit fondamental est toutefois de $42.1 milliards pour 1993-94, du fait qu'un certain nombre d'influences ponctuelles qui ont accru le déficit en 1993-94 n'auront plus d'effets sur celui-ci au cours des autres années. Ces facteurs temporaires comprennent le traitement plus rapide des remboursements d'impôt, la diminution des acomptes provisionnels versés chaque trimestre par les particuliers, la hausse des remboursements d'impôt aux sociétés à cause des déductions relatives aux ressources et l'augmentation des engagements au titre de la stabilisation. 1, record 12, French, - acompte%20provisionnel%20vers%C3%A9%20chaque%20trimestre%20par%20les%20particuliers
