Legislature Audit Bureau
Madison
October 21, 1999
To the Honorable, the Legislature:
We have completed a review of the expenditures and funding for programs of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Division of Intercollegiate Athletics, as requested by the Joint Legislative Audit Committee. From fiscal year (FY) 1994-95 through FY 1999-2000, the Division's expenditures are expected to increase 77.5 percent, from approximately $23.0 million to $40.8 million, and its revenues are expected to increase 63.8 percent, from $24.9 million to $40.7 million. After deficits in FY 1998-99 and FY 1999-2000, the Division's cash reserves are expected to decline by approximately $1.2 million, to $2.7 million at the end of FY 1999-2000.
Although the Division has improved its financial management since our 1989 audit, we believe its expenditure growth could be better controlled. For example, from FY 1994-95 through FY 1999-2000, when the rate of inflation is expected to be 12 percent, expenditures for women's athletic programs (excluding three new programs) are expected to increase 64.7 percent. Expenditures for men's athletic programs are expected to increase 36.8 percent. If the Division is unable to adequately control expenditure growth, it will become necessary to increase revenues through measures that could include increases in ticket prices.
When evaluating the Division's financial plans for the future, the Legislature and others may wish to consider whether an appropriate balance exists between the extent to which expenditures will be controlled and the extent to which revenues will be increased. Further, we suggest that the Legislature carefully review support for programs not reflected in the Division's financial statements. This support includes general purpose revenue, support provided by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and cash balances held in intercollegiate accounts of the University of Wisconsin Foundation.
We appreciate the courtesy and cooperation extended to us by the staff of the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics, as well as by officials of the University of Wisconsin System and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The University of Wisconsin-Madison's response is Appendix IX.
Respectfully submitted,
Janice Mueller
State Auditor
