To the Honorable, the Legislature:
This report is transmitted as required by sec. 20.002(11)(f) of the Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under sec. 13.172(3) Stats.), and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise the "temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative balances during the month of March, 1995.
On March 2, 1995 the University Trust Income Fund balance was -$1.2 million. The shortfall continued until March 14, 1995 when the balance reached +$433 thousand. This shortfall was due to a delayed transfer to the fund.
On March 23, 1995 the Wisconsin Health Education Fund balance was -$2 thousand. This shortfall continued through March 31, 1995. The shortfall is due to the timing of revenues to the fund.
The University Trust Income Fund and Wisconsin Health Education Fund shortfalls were not in excess of the $400 million ceiling and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
The distribution of interest earnings to investment pool participants is based on the average daily balance in the pool and each fund's share. Therefore, the monthly calculation by State Finance will automatically reflect the use of these temporary reallocations of balance authority.
Sincerely,
James Klauser
Secretary, DOA
Referred to Joint Committee on Finance.
