    Description: The collection of actual Unemployment Insurance (UI)

consists of the actual, most recently completed fiscal year's program 
expenditures and hours broken out by functional activity and two years 
of projected expenditures. The actual cost data informs Employment and 
Training Administration's administrative funding allocation model so 
that state UI program administration funds are allocated as equitably 
as possible among states. For additional information, see related
