As an important component of government allocation, fiscal outlay not only serves as the financial foundation for maintaining government functions but also provides a comprehensive overview of the scope and content of government activities in a market economy. This article analyzes the dimensions and structure of China's government fiscal outlay by reviewing existing literature and research data. It has been observed that the overall fiscal outlay by different tiers of government in China has witnessed a consistent rise over the years, with particular emphasis on the substantial fiscal deficit rates at the local level. This phenomenon has subsequently resulted in a persistent deterioration of the fiscal imbalance. There are also numerous problems in China's fiscal outlay structure, which lags behind developed countries and needs constant optimization. In response to these fiscal issues, this article proposes measures to alleviate fiscal outlay pressure, such as further increasing fiscal system reform, appropriately adjusting the tax system, strengthening supervision of fiscal outlay, and rationally optimizing fiscal outlay structure, taking into account China's actual situation.
