To the Honorable, the Legislature:
Attached is the second quarter report on Prison Industries for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, as required by Section
303.019 of the Wisconsin Statutes. This report includes the year-to-date cash balance of each industry.
A424
Prison Industries had a cash deficit of $3.1 million through the Second quarter ending December 31, 1994. The actual cash expenditure for the time period was $7,775,314. Revenues for the same time period were $4,655,224. Prison Industries have adequate fixed assets, inventories and receivables to cover the overdraft. The cash deficit is attributable to an uncommonly large accounts receivable during this time period. In addition, raw materials for Dodge Correctional expansion were purchased during this time period. Manufacturing and shipping of the products will not be completed during this same quarter.
The projected profit on the accrual basis for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995 is $575,000.
Sincerely,
Michael J. Sullivan
Secretary, DOC
