Rate increased when average balance in fund is less than certain amount, how

In plain English

Each year on October 1st, officials check the average balance of Missouri's unemployment money fund over the last four quarters. If that average is less than $450 million dollars, then every employer's payment rate into the fund gets bumped up by a certain percentage for the next year. The bump-up amount depends on a table that says how much to raise the rate based on how low the balance is.
