Based on the increase in Treasury bonds, the change in public debt will be an increase in public debt from $460 billion to $480 billion.

What is the change in public debt?

The current public debt is:

= Treasury bills + Treasury notes + Treasury bonds + Savings bonds

= 220 + 80 + 100 + 60

= $460 billion

An increase of $20 billion in Treasury bond will increase the public debt to:

= 460 + 20

= $480 billion
