(2) The revenue limit shall be equal to the product of the ratio of total state revenues in the 1978-79 state fiscal year divided by the personal income of Michigan in calendar year 1977 computed by rounding the quotient to 4 decimal places, multiplied by the personal income of Michigan in either the prior calendar year or the average of personal income of Michigan in the previous 3 calendar years, whichever is greater.
Terms Used In Michigan Laws 18.1350b
- Concurrent resolution: A legislative measure, designated "S. Con. Res." and numbered consecutively upon introduction, generally employed to address the sentiments of both chambers, to deal with issues or matters affecting both houses, such as a concurrent budget resolution, or to create a temporary joint committee. Concurrent resolutions are not submitted to the President/Governor and thus do not have the force of law.
- Fiscal year: The fiscal year is the accounting period for the government. For the federal government, this begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. The fiscal year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends; for example, fiscal year 2006 begins on October 1, 2005 and ends on September 30, 2006.
- state: when applied to the different parts of the United States, shall be construed to extend to and include the District of Columbia and the several territories belonging to the United States; and the words "United States" shall be construed to include the district and territories. See Michigan Laws 8.3o
(3) The department shall submit to the legislature, the fiscal agencies, and the auditor general not later than June 30, 1989 a report which shall calculate in detail the base revenue limit as established in subsection (2). This report shall become effective 90 days after submission to the legislature unless disapproved by a concurrent resolution approved by a majority of the members elected and serving in each house by a record roll call vote. If this report takes effect, the calculation of the base revenue limit contained in the report shall be used for the purposes of subsection (2).
