FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION





Officials of the Department of Revenue assume there would be no administrative impact.



Officials of the Office of Administration stated they have reviewed the information submitted by the Jackson County Sports Complex Authority and believe their estimates of sales tax collected are reasonable.



Officials of the Jackson County Sports Complex Authority made sales tax estimates based on Missouri state sales tax generated at the Harry S. Truman Sports Complex for the year 1999. Officials stated that in 1999 the amount of sales tax collected was $3,305,545. Based on that figure officials estimate the sales tax collections for:



2002 $3,603,044

2003 $3,711,135

2004 $3,822,469



A 3% inflation factor was applied.



Oversight assumes these estimates were based on the state tax rate of 4.225% Oversight assumes that the state's portion would be 4% rather than 4.225% and calculated the revenue loss to the General Revenue Fund based on that assumption. Oversight assumed a 3% annual growth rate for inflation.



Oversight for the purposes of this fiscal note assumes this proposal would be effective September 1, of fiscal year 2002, and is subject to appropriation. Oversight assumes that for 10 months of FY 2002 the loss of revenue to the State's General Revenue Fund would be $2,110,659 and the loss to the School District Trust Fund is estimated at $703,553. Loss of revenue in FY 2003 is estimated at $2,608,775 for the State's General Revenue Fund and $869,592 for the School District Trust Fund. Loss of revenue to the GR Fund in FY 2004 is estimated to be $2,687,038 and $895,680 to the School District Trust Fund. Estimates are made based on the assumption that the state's portion would be 4%, ( 3% state and 1% school trust).
