The negative fund balances reported as of September 30, 2007 and 2006 relate to the Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) and are the result of the timing of processing the investments and redemptions of UTF. The investments and redemptions relating to the last business day of the month are not processed until the first day of the next month. This could result in a negative cash position for the preceding business day if the disbursements are greater than the receipts to the fund.

Unobligated Balance Available includes $361 million of funds apportioned for use in the subsequent year.
