SUMMARY

We issued an unqualified opinion on the Wisconsin Lottery's financial statements for FY 2008-09 and FY 2009-10, when ticket sales totaled $480.9 million. The Wisconsin Lottery was in compliance with statutory limitations on expenses related to prizes, informational advertising, retailer commissions and incentives, and other administrative functions, but we include a recommendation that it specify how the effectiveness of $7.5 million in annual spending to publicize games will be measured.
