1) 2018-19 Actual Receipts and Expenditures are derived from LAFPP's Audited Financial Statements using the modified accrual basis.
2019-20 Estimated Receipts and Expenditures and 2020-21 Budgeted Receipts and Expenditures are calculated on a cash basis.
2) The total City Contribution (General Fund) in a given Fiscal Year is the sum of the General Fund and Excess Benefit Plan (EBP) line items.
For 2020-21 these amounts total $752,187,959. Since the EBP revenue is transferred to the Controller, however, it is excluded from LAFPP
total revenue. The Harbor and Airports contributions are calculated separately and are reflected in separate line items.
3) In November 2016, voters of the City of Los Angeles approved an amendment to the City Charter to (1) enroll all new Airport Police Officers
hired on or after January 7, 2018, in the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan (LAFPP) instead of the Los Angeles City Employees’
Retirement System (LACERS); (2) allow all current Airport Police and Airport Safety Officers who started before January 7, 2018, to convert all
of their LACERS retirement credit to LAFPP Tier 6 credit at their own expense; and, (3) give any current or future Airport Chief of Police the
option of joining LACERS instead of LAFPP. The first contribution by Airports was made in January 2018.
