Minnesota owns more than it owes.

Minnesota's Taxpayer Surplus™ is $100, and it received a "B" from TIA.

Minnesota is a Sunshine State with enough assets to cover its debt.

Elected officials have created a Taxpayer Surplus™, which is each taxpayer's share of money available after state bills have been paid.

TIA's Taxpayer Surplus™ measurement incorporates both assets and liabilities, not just pension debt.

Minnesota has $24.4 billion of assets available to pay the state's bills totaling $24.3 billion.

Minnesota has $115.5 million available after bills have been paid, which breaks down to $100 per taxpayer.

Minnesota's reported net position is understated by $3.2 billion, largely because the state delays recognizing gains resulting from decreases in retirement liabilities.

The state's financial report was released 166 days after its fiscal year end, which is considered timely according to the 180 day standard.
