General Fund Receipts
Updated: December 2023 |
Through 5 months, total ongoing receipts were $115.4 million MORE than the Legislative Adopted FY2024 estimate.
General Fund Receipts
Year-over-Year Comparisons
Ongoing general fund revenues were $3.8M or 1.4% less than November of FY2023 (page 1). The largest increases were Unclaimed Property Receipts (+$8.6M or 9.4%) and Contractor’s Excise Tax (+$3.8M or 21.7%). The largest decreases were Insurance Company Tax (-$8.9M or -72.5%) and Sales and Use Tax (-$3.7M or -2.9%). The decrease in Insurance Company Tax is partially due to timing of receipts to the general fund.
Year-to-Date ongoing general fund revenues are $90.4M or 8.4% greater than fiscal year 2023 (page 2).

Ongoing general fund revenues were $25.8M or 10.7% more than the legislative adopted estimate for November (page 4). The largest increases were Unclaimed Property Receipts (+$28.0M or 39.2%) and Contractor’s Excise Tax ($2.3M or 12.1%).

The largest decrease was Insurance Company Tax (-$1.8M or -35.0%). The decrease in Insurance Company Tax is partially due to timing of receipts to the general fund.
