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 May, 1996.
On May 1, 1996 the Wisconsin Lottery Fund balance was -$1.5 million. This shortfall continued until May 3, 1996 when the balance reached $.3 million. On May 6, 1996 the Wisconsin Lottery Fund balance was -$.1 million. This shortfall continued until May 9, 1996 when the balance reached $1.3 million. These shortfalls were due to timing of revenues.
On May 13, 1996 the Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund balance was -$9 thousand. This shortfall continued until May 22, 1996 when the balance reached $6 thousand. On May 31, 1996 the Wisconsin Health Education and Loan Fund balance was -$1 thousand. This shortfall continued through the end of the month. These shortfall were due to the timing of revenues.
The Wisconsin Lottery Fund and Health Education Loan Repayment Fund shortfalls were not in excess of the $400 million ceiling and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
S836
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 the State Controller's Office will automatically reflect the use of these temporary reallocations of balance authority.
