between the estimate and the State's actual expenditures.

6.1.5 Supplemental Funding:

Unless otherwise defined by program rules, Supplemental Funding is the award of additional funds to provide for an increase in 

costs due to unforeseen circumstances.

The State will comply with all Federal program agency policies and procedures for requesting supplemental grant funding.

The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for the Medical Assistance Program 

and associated administrative payments (CFDA 93.778):

The State must submit a revised Medicaid Program Budget Report (CMS-37) to request supplemental funding. The CMS guidelines 

and instructions for completing the CMS-37 are provided in Section 2600F of the State Medicaid Manual (SMM). The CMS/CO must 

receive the revised Form CMS-37 through the Medicaid Budget Expenditure System/Children's Budget Expenditure System 

(MBES/CBES) no later than 10 calendar days before the end of the quarter for which the supplemental grant award is being 

requested.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 18A14BDD-AF12-4CD7-B012-83ED17DE158D
Page 4 of 22

Additional guidance on this policy is available from the respective CMS Regional Office, U.S. Department of Health & Human 

Services.

The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for TANF (CFDA 93.558), CCDF 

(CFDA 93.575), CSE (93.563), and the FC/AA (CFDA 93.658 and CFDA 93.659) programs administered by the

U.S. Department of Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (HHS/ACF):

a. Timing of the Request

A State should initiate its request for supplemental funding during a quarter as soon as it becomes aware of the fact that a shortfall 

does/will exist. For the TANF and CCDF grants, supplemental funding requests (estimates) may be submitted by a State, for 

consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month of the first, second or third quarter of any fiscal year. 

Since TANF and CCDF are block grant programs, all unawarded portions of the annual allotment will automatically be issued at the 

beginning of the fourth quarter. Therefore, supplemental funding requests will not be available during the fourth quarter for these 

programs. For the CSE and FC/AA programs, supplemental funding requests may be submitted by a state, for consideration by ACF, 

up through and including the 15th day of the third month of any quarter of a fiscal year.

b. Justification for the Request

The request for a supplemental funding for any of the above-mentioned programs should contain a justification clearly documenting 

the need for the additional funding authority during the current quarter. This documentation should be in the form of State accounting 

records or similar documents that will show the actual expenditures through the most recent month for which such data are available, 

as well as the State's most accurate projection of its anticipated expenditures during the remaining month(s) of the quarter. For either 

the TANF or the CCDF program, the State's justification should also include an explanation of the activities requiring the obligation 

and/or expenditure of amounts that exceed the normal quarterly grant award restrictions and why these activities could not have been 

delayed until the next quarter.

c. Form Submittal

Supplemental funding requests should be made by completing the appropriate ACF quarterly report of expenditures and estimates

applicable to the particular program for which the grant award request is being made.

d. Approval Process

Upon receipt of the state's request for additional funding authority for a quarter, the ACF Regional Office will promptly review the 

supporting documentation. If the request is properly justified, so long as ACF has adequate funding availability, the State's request 

will be expedited and supplemental funding will be issued within 5 days of ACF receiving the request. The State will be notified by 

the Regional Office when the supplemental award has been transmitted to the Payment Management System (PMS) and when it 

may initiate drawdowns against the supplemental funding.

Additional guidance on this policy is provided in the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Administration for Children

and Families, letter (May 19, 2004) to State Administrators from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Administration.

appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. This funding 

technique is interest neutral.

request shall be for the amount of the EFT/warrant disbursement. This funding 

technique is interest neutral.

State's account each day shall be summed and then divided by the amount of the total disbursement.

For each day following issuance, the clearance time of the checks paid out that day shall be multiplied by the percentage of the total 

disbursement those checks represent. This product is the clearance factor.

The dollar-weighted average day of clearance for the disbursement shall be determined by summing the clearance factor of each day 

following the disbursement.

7.7 The State shall adjust each clearance pattern to reflect the dollar-weighted proportion of funds paid out by EFT/Direct payroll, 

with the following exceptions:

Not applicable

The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect:

Actual activity

7.8 Each of the State's clearance patterns is calculated in Business days.

7.9 An authorized State official shall certify that each clearance pattern developed by the State accurately corresponds to the 

clearance activity of the programs to which it is applied. This certification shall be provided to the Fiscal Service prior to the 

effective date of the Agreement. The State shall recertify its clearance patterns at least every five years.

7.10 The State shall follow the procedures of 31 CFR 205 if it has actual or constructive knowledge, at any time, that a clearance

pattern does not correspond to a program's clearance activity.

8.0 INTEREST CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

8.1 General Terms

8.1.1 The State and the Secretary agree that no interest liabilities will be incurred for transfers of funds made in accordance 

with the procedures specified in section 6 of this Agreement where the following funding techniques are applied:

Actual Clearance, ZBA - Same Day Payment

Average Clearance

Daily Draws

Monthly Draws

Payment Schedule - Weekly

Reimbursable Funding

8.1.2 The State shall maintain information on disbursements and receipts of funds to verify the implementation of any funding 

technique and document interest liabilities.

For each disbursement, the State shall be able to identify:

(1) amount of the issuance

(2) date of issuance

(3) date Federal funds are received and credited to a State account

(4) amount of Federal funds received

DocuSign Envelope ID: 18A14BDD-AF12-4CD7-B012-83ED17DE158D
Page 14 of 22

(5) date funds were requested

8.2 Federal Interest Liabilities

8.2.1 A Federal interest liability shall accrue from the day the State pays out its own funds for program purposes to the day Federal 

funds are credited to a State account. With regard to funds transferred out of the Federal Highway Trust Fund, if a State does not bill 

at least weekly for current project costs, the Federal interest liability shall not accrue prior to the day the State submits a request for 

funds.

8.2.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate Federal interest liabilities:

Actual Activity:

For all transactions where the State pays out its own funds for program purposes prior to receiving Federal funds, the State shall track 

each payment from the date it is paid out of a State account to the date Federal funds are subsequently credited to a State account to 

cover that outlay. The Federal interest liability on each payment shall be based on the difference in whole days between the two events. 

With Federal-State matching programs, interest shall be calculated on the Federal percentage of the disbursement. With regard to funds 

expended on behalf of program 12.401, National Guard Military Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Projects, the federal interest

liability may accrue beginning the 16th day following the delivery of the request for reimbursement to the duly appointed Cooperative 

Agreement Program Manager.

8.3 The Unemployment Trust Fund

8.3.1 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on funds withdrawn from the several accounts 

in the Unemployment Trust Fund:

The State shall use the following methodology to calculate State interest liabilities on funds withdrawn from the several accounts in the 

UTF under the Unemployment Insurance program.

Based on statements provided by its financial institution, or other appropriate source, the State shall determine the actual interest 

earnings and the related banking costs attributable to funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF.

At the end of the State's fiscal year, the State shall calculate the percentage of its total unemployment compensation expenditures for (1) 

funds withdrawn from the State account in the UTF, or the State %, and (2) funds withdrawn from the Federal Employees 

Compensation Account (FECA) and the Extended Unemployment Compensation Account (EUCA) and any other accounts of Federal 

funds in the UTF, or the Federal %.

The State shall calculate the actual interest earnings and the related banking costs attributable to funds withdrawn from the State 

account in the UTF by multiplying the State % by the amount of the actual interest earnings and the related banking costs of the account 

as a whole. The State's liability for interest on funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF shall consist of the actual interest earnings 

attributable to such funds less the related banking costs attributed to such funds.

The State shall determine the average daily cash balance of its unemployment compensation benefit payment account for its fiscal year. 

The State shall calculate the average daily cash balance of Federal funds by multiplying the Federal % by the average daily cash balance 

of the benefit payment account on the whole. The State's liability for interest on funds withdrawn from the FECA and EUCA (and any 

other benefit accounts of Federal funds in the UTF from which the State draws funds) shall be the average daily cash balance of Federal 

funds multiplied by the annualized rate equal to the average equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury bills auctioned during the State's 

fiscal year.

8.4 Refund Liabilities

8.4.1 The State shall be liable for interest on refunds from the date the refund is credited to a State account until the date the refund 

is debited from the State account for program purposes. The State shall apply a $50,000 refund transaction threshold below which 

the State shall not incur or calculate interest liabilities on refunds. A transaction is defined as a single deposit.

8.4.2 For each refund, the State shall maintain information identifying:

(1) date a refund is credited to a State account

(2) date of the subsequent deposit of Federal funds against which the refund is offset

DocuSign Envelope ID: 18A14BDD-AF12-4CD7-B012-83ED17DE158D
Page 15 of 22

(3) amount of the refund

8.4.3 The State shall use the following methodology to calculate interest liabilities on refunds:

With programs to which applicable interest neutral funding techniques are applied, the State interest liability shall be based on the 

difference in whole days between the date the refund is deposited in a State account and the date the refund is offset against a 

subsequent deposit of Federal funds.

8.5 Exemptions

8.5.1 Where more than one State agency is a recipient of Federal funds under a program, a particular State agency's funding may be 

excluded from interest calculation procedures if the State agency receives an amount of funds less than 5

% of the State's threshold for major Federal assistance programs. Notwithstanding this potential exemption, however, in no case 

shall less than 90% of a program's total funding be subject to interest calculation procedures.

Proration of calculations: If less than total program funding is subject to interest calculation procedures, the resulting interest 

liability calculations shall be prorated to 100% of program funding.

8.6 State Interest Liabilities

8.6.1 The State shall be liable for interest on Federal funds from the date Federal funds are credited to a State account until the 

date those funds are paid out for program purposes.

8.6.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on Federal funds:

8.6.2.1 Measuring Time Funds Are Held

To determine the total time Federal funds are held, the State shall measure the time between the date Federal funds are received and 

credit to a State's account and the date those funds are debited from the State's account.

8.6.2.2 Source of Data

The Mississippi Accountability System for Government Information and Collabortion (MAGIC)

- with any pertinent added information from the State Agencies and Belinda Williams-Russell.

8.6.2.3 Standards Applied

To measure the time Federal funds are held in a State account prior to being disbursed, the State shall use statistical sampling. The 

sample shall be randomly selected, and shall be of sufficient size to ensure, at a minimum, a 95% confidence interval no wider than ą 

0.3 dollar-weighted days about the estimated mean.

For each check in the sample population, the State shall:

1 subtract the deposit date from the issuance date

2 multiply the difference of step 1 by the check amount

3 divide the product of step 2 by the total amount of funds drawn in the sample to determine the dollar-weighted pre-issuance time for 

that check

The State shall then sum the dollar-weighted pre-issuance time for each check to arrive at the total dollar-weighted average pre-issuance 

time to be used for calculating State interest liabilities.

8.6.2.4 Calculation Procedure

I = ADB x R, where

I = State's total interest liability

DocuSign Envelope ID: 18A14BDD-AF12-4CD7-B012-83ED17DE158D
Page 16 of 22

ADB = Average Daily Balance of cash in a program's account, measured from deposit to clearance

R = Annualized rate equal to the average equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury bills auctioned during a State's fiscal year

9.0 REVERSE FLOW PROGRAMS

The State is not required to cover any reverse flow programs under the terms of this Agreement because the State does not 

participate in the program.

10.0 INTEREST CALCULATION COSTS

10.1 As set forth in 31 CFR 205.27, interest calculation costs are defined as those costs necessary for the actual calculation of 

interest, including the cost of developing and maintaining clearance patterns in support of the interest calculations. Interest 

calculation costs do not include expenses for normal disbursing services, such as processing of checks or maintaining records for 

accounting and reconciliation of cash balances, or expenses for upgrading or modernizing accounting systems. Interest 

calculation costs in excess of $50,000 in any year are not eligible for reimbursement, unless the State provides justification with 

the annual report.

10.2 The State expects to incur the following types of interest calculation costs:

-1) Time and expenses incurred to develop clearance patterns

-2) Costs directly related to calculation of interest

-3) Costs associated with preparation of the annual report

10.3 The State shall submit all claims for reimbursement of interest calculation costs with its Annual Report in accordance with 31 

CFR 205.

11.0 NON-COMPLIANCE

11.1 The provisions of 31 CFR Part 205.29 and 31 CFR Part 205.30 shall apply in cases of non-compliance with the terms of 

this Agreement.
