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 April 2006.
On April 13, 2006, the General Fund cash balance closed at a negative $17.5 million. This negative balance continued until April 17, 2006, when the fund's cash balance closed at a positive $42.4 million. The General Fund cash balance reached its intramonth low of a negative $225.8 million on April 14, 2006. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.
On April 12, 2006, the Medical Assistance Trust Fund cash balance closed at a negative $47.4 million. This negative balance continued through, April 30, 2006, when the fund cash balance closed at a positive $79.9 million. The Medical Assistance Trust Fund cash balance reached its intramonth low of a negative $80.2 million on April 26, 2006. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.
On April 24, 2006, the Workers Compensation Fund cash balance closed at a negative $1.0 thousand. This negative balance continued through April 30, 2006, when the fund's cash balance closed at its intramonth low of $3.0 thousand. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.
The General Fund, Medical Assistance Trust Fund, and the Workers Compensation Fund shortfalls were not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitations 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 the State Controller's Office will automatically reflect the use of these temporary reallocations of balance authority, and as a result, the funds requiring the use of the authority will effectively bear the interest cost.
Sincerely,
stephen e. bablitch
