| ||||||
15 | the adjusted trust fund balance falls below the target | ||||||
16 | balance set forth in
this subsection,
the state experience | ||||||
17 | factor for the succeeding year shall
be increased one | ||||||
18 | percent absolute.
| ||||||
19 | For every $50,000,000 (or fraction thereof) by which
| ||||||
20 | the adjusted trust fund balance exceeds the target balance | ||||||
21 | set forth in this
subsection, the
state experience factor | ||||||
22 | for the succeeding year shall be
decreased by one percent | ||||||
23 | absolute.
| ||||||
24 | The target balance in each calendar year prior to 2003 | ||||||
25 | is $750,000,000.
The
target balance in
calendar year 2003 |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | is $920,000,000. The target balance in calendar year 2004 | ||||||
2 | is
$960,000,000.
The target balance in calendar year 2005 | ||||||
3 | and each calendar year thereafter
is
$1,000,000,000.
| ||||||
4 | 2. For the purposes of this subsection:
| ||||||
5 | "Net trust fund balance" is the amount standing to the
| ||||||
6 | credit of this State's account in the unemployment trust
| ||||||
7 | fund as of June 30 of the calendar year immediately | ||||||
8 | preceding
the year for which a state experience factor is | ||||||
9 | being determined.
| ||||||
10 | "Adjusted trust fund balance" is the net trust fund | ||||||
11 | balance
minus the sum of the benefit reserves for fund | ||||||
12 | building
for July 1, 1987 through June 30 of the year prior | ||||||
13 | to the
year for which the state experience factor is being | ||||||
14 | determined.
The adjusted trust fund balance shall not be | ||||||
15 | less than
zero. If the preceding calculation results in a | ||||||
16 | number
which is less than zero, the amount by which it is | ||||||
17 | less
than zero shall reduce the sum of the benefit reserves
| ||||||
18 | for fund building for subsequent years.
| ||||||
19 | For the purpose of determining the state experience | ||||||
20 | factor
for 1989 and for each calendar year thereafter, the | ||||||
21 | following
"benefit reserves for fund building" shall apply | ||||||
22 | for each
state experience factor calculation in which that | ||||||
23 | 12 month
period is applicable:
| ||||||
24 | a. For the 12 month period ending on June 30, 1988, | ||||||
25 | the
"benefit reserve for fund building" shall be | ||||||
26 | 8/104th of
the total benefits paid from January 1, 1988 |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | through June 30, 1988.
| ||||||
2 | b. For the 12 month period ending on June 30, 1989, | ||||||
3 | the
"benefit reserve for fund building" shall be the | ||||||
4 | sum of:
| ||||||
5 | i. 8/104ths of the total benefits paid from | ||||||
6 | July 1,
1988 through December 31, 1988, plus
| ||||||
7 | ii. 4/108ths of the total benefits paid from | ||||||
8 | January
1, 1989 through June 30, 1989.
| ||||||
9 | c. For the 12 month period ending on June 30, 1990, | ||||||
10 | the
"benefit reserve for fund building" shall be | ||||||
11 | 4/108ths of
the total benefits paid from July 1, 1989 | ||||||
12 | through December 31, 1989.
| ||||||
13 | d. For 1992 and for each calendar year thereafter, | ||||||
14 | the
"benefit reserve for fund building" for the 12 | ||||||
15 | month period
ending on June 30, 1991 and for each | ||||||
16 | subsequent 12 month
period shall be zero.
| ||||||
17 | 3. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this | ||||||
18 | subsection,
for calendar years 1988 through 2003, the state | ||||||
19 | experience factor shall not
be increased or decreased
by | ||||||
20 | more than 15 percent absolute.
| ||||||
21 | D. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection C, the
| ||||||
22 | adjusted state experience factor:
| ||||||
23 | 1. Shall be 111 percent for calendar year 1988;
| ||||||
24 | 2. Shall not be less than 75 percent nor greater than
| ||||||
25 | 135 percent for calendar years 1989 through 2003; and shall | ||||||
26 | not
be less than 75% nor greater than 150% for calendar |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | year 2004 and each
calendar year
thereafter, not counting | ||||||
2 | any increase pursuant to subsection D-1, D-2, or D-3;
| ||||||
3 | 3. Shall not be decreased by more than 5 percent | ||||||
4 | absolute for any
calendar year, beginning in calendar year | ||||||
5 | 1989 and through calendar year
1992, by more than 6% | ||||||
6 | absolute for calendar years 1993
through 1995, by more than | ||||||
7 | 10% absolute for calendar years
1999 through 2003 and by | ||||||
8 | more than 12% absolute for calendar year 2004 and
each | ||||||
9 | calendar year thereafter, from the adjusted state
| ||||||
10 | experience factor of the calendar year preceding the | ||||||
11 | calendar year for which
the adjusted state experience | ||||||
12 | factor is being determined;
| ||||||
13 | 4. Shall not be increased by more than 15% absolute for | ||||||
14 | calendar year
1993, by more than 14% absolute for calendar | ||||||
15 | years 1994 and
1995, by more than 10% absolute for calendar | ||||||
16 | years 1999
through 2003 and by more than 16% absolute for | ||||||
17 | calendar year 2004 and each
calendar
year
thereafter, from | ||||||
18 | the adjusted state experience factor for the calendar year
| ||||||
19 | preceding the calendar year for which the adjusted state | ||||||
20 | experience factor
is being determined;
| ||||||
21 | 5. Shall be 100% for calendar years 1996, 1997, and | ||||||
22 | 1998.
| ||||||
23 | D-1. The adjusted state experience factor for each of | ||||||
24 | calendar years 2013 through 2015 shall be increased by 5% | ||||||
25 | absolute above the adjusted state experience factor as | ||||||
26 | calculated without regard to this subsection. The adjusted |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | state experience factor for each of calendar years 2016 through | ||||||
2 | 2018 shall be increased by 6% absolute above the adjusted state | ||||||
3 | experience factor as calculated without regard to this | ||||||
4 | subsection. The increase in the adjusted state experience | ||||||
5 | factor for calendar year 2018 pursuant to this subsection shall | ||||||
6 | not be counted for purposes of applying paragraph 3 or 4 of | ||||||

15 | subsection shall not be counted for purposes of applying | ||||||
16 | paragraph 3 or 4 of subsection D to the calculation of the | ||||||
17 | adjusted state experience factor for calendar year 2021 2019 . | ||||||
18 | E. The amount standing to the credit of this State's | ||||||
19 | account in the
unemployment trust fund as of June 30 shall be | ||||||
20 | deemed to include as part
thereof (a) any amount receivable on | ||||||
21 | that date from any Federal
governmental agency, or as a payment | ||||||
