Balanced budget requirement
It's possible the state is violating North Carolina's constitutional requirement for a balanced budget. The discrepancy boils down to accounting.
State budget writers work on a cash basis, but accounting rules encourage budget writers to work on an accrual basis. Accrual accounting would require budget writers to account for the promises they've made to state workers.
A change would immediately highlight a $28 billion shortfall in the retiree health benefits promised to state workers.[4]
