Fiscal Detail and Notes 
This bill clarifies that promotional credits are not included in the calculation of gross slot machine income, net slot 
machine income or payback percentage. The use of promotional credits could increase business at Hollywood Slots, 
thereby increasing the amount of income the State receives. However, given the forecast for disposable income .in the 
latest Consensus Economic Forecasting Commission report, it is anticipated that any additional income to the State 
from Hollywood Slots would be reduced by reductions in other income categories, i.e. lottery and sales tax.
