The Department of Labor bank records All other accounts-Bank files from the State Treasurer's OfficeEducation’s Central Accounting System. 7.4 The State shall use the following methodology when developing its clearance patterns: When developing each clearance pattern, the State shall track at least 99% of the funds disbursed, from issuance to clearance, for a period of at least three months. 7.5 The State shall identify for each check or warrant (hereafter, check) in the population: (1) the date the check was released for payment; (2) the date the check was debited from the State's account, and, (3) the amount of the check. 7.6 The State shall use the following method to calculate the dollar-weighted average day of clearance: To determine the number of days each check was outstanding (clearance time), the issue date shall be subtracted from the date the check cleared the State's account. To determine the percentage of the disbursement paid out each day following issuance, the amount of the checks that clear the State's account each day shall be summed and then divided by the amount of the total disbursement.

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: All Accounts - An adjustment is not necessary since the State includes all payments in its clearance pattern calculations, including those paid electronicallyNone. The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect: n/aThe State shall adjust each clearance pattern to reflect actual date the checks cleared the State's bank account for other than Department of Education checks. To arrive at the date the check was debited from the State's account (7.5, Item 2) the average day of clearance must be reduced by 1.45 days. The State computer files show the cashed date as the date the checks were returned to the State Treasury by the drawee bank. However, the checks were redeemed and charged to the State's bank account by the drawee bank on the prior banking day. Accordingly, the average day of clearance is overstated by approximately 1.45 calendar days. The "rounded average day of clearance" in Exhibit II is adjusted to reflect the day the checks were cashed at the drawee bank and charged to the State's bank account. The following is the computation of the 1.45 days factor: State of Hawaii Agencies (Other than Department of Education) Clearance Pattern Adjustment: Check Cashed by Bank; Recorded Cashed by State; Difference-Cashed & Recorded Monday; Tuesday; 1 day Tuesday; Wednesday; 1 day Wednesday; Thursday; 1 day Thursday; Friday; 1 day Friday; Monday; 3 days Total difference = 7 days Computation to determine number of days to be adjusted: 39 weeks x (7/5) = 54.60 (Holiday Factor) 13 weeks x (8/5) = 20.80 52 weeks = 75.40 / 52 weeks = 1.45 days 1.45 days will be reduced from the State-calculated clearance pattern to arrive at the clearance pattern to be used by the State in Exhibit II. 7.8 Each of the State's clearance patterns is calculated in calendar Calendar 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.

To determine the percentage of the disbursement paid out each day following issuance, the amount of the checks that clear the 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: All Accounts - An adjustment is not necessary since the State includes all payments in its clearance pattern calculations, including those paid electronicallyNone. The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect: n/aThe State shall adjust each clearance pattern to reflect actual date the checks cleared the State's bank account for other than Department of Education checks. To arrive at the date the check was debited from the State's account (7.5, Item 2) the average day of clearance must be reduced by 1.45 days. The State computer files show the cashed date as the date the checks were returned to the State Treasury by the drawee bank. However, the checks were redeemed and charged to the State's bank account by the drawee bank on the prior banking day. Accordingly, the average day of clearance is overstated by approximately 1.45 calendar days. The "rounded average day of clearance" in Exhibit II is adjusted to reflect the day the checks were cashed at the drawee bank and charged to the State's bank account. The following is the computation of the 1.45 days factor: State of Hawaii Agencies (Other than Department of Education) Clearance Pattern Adjustment: Monday; Tuesday; 1 day Tuesday; Wednesday; 1 day Wednesday; Thursday; 1 day Thursday; Friday; 1 day Friday; Monday; 3 days Check Cashed by Bank; Recorded Cashed by State; Difference-Cashed & Recorded Total difference = 7 days Computation to determine number of days to be adjusted: 39 weeks x (7/5) = 54.60 (Holiday Factor) 13 weeks x (8/5) = 20.80 52 weeks = 75.40 / 52 weeks = 1.45 days 1.45 days will be reduced from the State-calculated clearance pattern to arrive at the clearance pattern to be used by the State in Exhibit II. 7.8 Each of the State's clearance patterns is calculated in calendar 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.
