Projected
Spending Cap
• The adopted FY 2014 budget is $9.4 million below the cap.
• At adoption, the FY 2015 budget was $166.3 million below the cap.
• Recent revisions to personal income growth have reduced the available room under the cap in FY 2015 to $56.9 million.
• Personal income growth serves as the cap’s proxy for the economy’s ability to pay for government services.
• The most recent recession has resulted in the lowest allowable expenditure cap growth rates since its inception.

Withholding Tax
Income TaxHighly Dependent Upon Capital Gains
• Over the past 15 years Connecticut’s income tax revenue has fluctuated dramatically due to the performance of the stock market and two recessions.
• Unfortunately, a record high year for capital gains realizations can be immediately followed by a record low year, creating extreme volatility in state finances. 10

Declining Motor Fuels Consumption
• Consumers began to curtail consumption as prices began to rise.
• From FY 2006 through FY 2013, the cumulative decline in Motor Fuels tax revenue is 10.3%.
• For this revenue source this is not just a cyclical change, but a major structural change on the part of consumers.
• In FY 2013, Motor Fuels tax revenue equaled 40.7% of the total revenue of the Special Transportation Fund which is down from 55.4% in FY 2003. Declining growth in motor fuels revenue has led to an increasing reliance on other revenue sources to support the fund, including transfers from the General Fund.

Slow Economic Recovery
• For the two most recent recessions, revenue peaked in FY 2001 and FY 2008, respectively.
• Unlike the prior recession, Sales Tax revenue has yet to exceed its previous peak.
• If this recovery had been similar to the 2003 recovery, Income Tax revenue would be $1.3 billion higher, while Sales Tax revenue would be $600 million higher.

Consumer Debt (US)
• After reaching unsustainable levels, U.S. households have begun to address their debt.
• However, debt remains at elevated levels.
• At this rate it will take 10 years to reach the 1952-1990 average of 65%
• Despite historically low interest rates, which would normally be an incentive to borrow more, households continue to deleverage.
• This reduction in debt combined with the increase in the savings rate is equivalent to 1.8% annually of U.S. GDP.

Depressed Household Net Worth (US)
• Household net worth for all Americans peaked at $71,372 billion in 2007 Q2.
• The financial crisis wiped-out 20% of households’ total net worth, from peak to trough.
• Even today, U.S. household net worth remains 1% below the 2007 peak. This has had a negative impact on consumers’ ability to borrow against their assets and consumer confidence via the “wealth effect” during the recovery.

• Unlike prior budgets, the adopted budget "net appropriates" the Medicaid account in the Department of Social Services.
• Increases in “Federal Share under Net Budgeting” reflect the impact of federal health care reform, which expands Medicaid coverage to childless adults with income up to 133% of the federal poverty level beginning January 1, 2014. (Costs are 100% federally reimbursed through 2016, after which reimbursement is phased down to 90% in 2020.)

Debt Service
Surplus Funds
FY 2010 and beyond include debt service on the $2.3 billion in pension obligation bonds issued on April 30, 2008 on behalf of the Teachers’ Retirement System.
Teachers’ Retirement System
• $2 billion pension obligation bond (POB) issued in April 2008.
• Bond covenant requires the state to fully fund the ARC for as long as POBs remain outstanding.
• The average cost of POBs is 5.88 percent, and based on 2012 projections, there is an 88 percent probability of exceeding that borrowing cost when the bonds mature in 2032.
• By continuing a disciplined approach to paying the ARC and the debt service on the POBs, the unfunded liability in the TRS will diminish over time.
38
Other Post Employment Benefits
• The 2012 updated OPEB valuation, received in April of 2013, showed another significant reduction in the state’s unfunded liability. This builds upon the prior reduction of $13.3 billion due to the OPEB reforms negotiated in the 2009 and 2011 SEBAC agreements. The updated actuarial report reflects:
– SEBAC 2009 and 2011
– Reduction in health care cost trends
– New prescription drug contract expected to reduce drug costs by 11%
– Conversion of the Medicare-age prescription drug program to an Employer Group Waiver Program. 39
OPEB (cont’d)
• Recent Reforms:
– The 2009 and 2011 SEBAC agreements require:
• 3% contribution to Retiree Health Care Trust Fund for all health care eligible employees, with phased in implementation.
• State match of employee OPEB contributions beginning July 1, 2017.
• Greater premium share for individuals who elect early retirement.
• The valuation as of June 30, 2011 (issued in May of 2012) reflects the reforms mentioned above and the corresponding impact on the OPEB liability.
• Based on the most recent valuation, the OPEB trust fund contained $49.6 million in net assets as of June 30, 2011.
• Deposits to the OPEB Trust Fund:
– State Contributions:
• $10 million in FY 2008 and $14.5 million in FY 2011.
– Employee Contributions:
• $1.4 million in FY 2010, $21.6 million in FY 2011 and $25.0 million in FY 2012.
40
GAAP
• The State’s plan to address the cumulative GAAP deficit:
– Issuance of approximately $560 million of General Obligation, GAAP Conversion Bonds to be amortized through 2028
– Fund the remaining accumulated GAAP deficit over time through amounts deemed appropriated (approximately $46 million annually from 2016 to 2028)
41
GAAP (cont’d)
• Bond covenants are required by the GAAP bonding legislation
– Annual debt service of GAAP Conversion Bonds is deemed appropriated
– Annual appropriation of non-bonded portion of the accumulated GAAP deficit is also deemed appropriated
– GAAP Conversion Bond proceeds cannot be counted as General Fund revenue
– GAAP Conversion Bonds must be repaid over 15 years
• Appropriations to cover accruals starting in FY 2014 (to cover difference between cash basis budgeting and modified accrual basis)
• Requirement to address any future GAAP shortfall from operations in succeeding year’s budget

Impact of State Bonded Indebtedness
• Debt Service as a percentage of the General Fund budget has remained fairly steady.
• The secondary debt service percentage line (FY 2014-18, indicated with triangular tick marks) adjusts for the net budgeting approach to Medicaid expenditures; debt service would continue at about 10% of the General Fund budget.
