 general  fund during the state fiscal year provided that such loan shall
 be repaid in full no later than (a) four months after it was made or (b)
 by the end of the same fiscal year in which it was made, whichever peri-
 od is shorter, so that an  accurate  accounting  and  reporting  of  the

 certificate unless he or she shall have determined that the  amounts  to
 be  so  loaned  are  receivable on account. When making loans, the comp-
 troller shall establish appropriate accounts and  if  the  loan  is  not
 repaid  by  the end of the month, provide on or before the fifteenth day
 of the following month to the director of the budget, the chair  of  the
 senate  finance  committee  and the chair of the assembly ways and means
 committee, an accurate accounting and report of the financial  resources
 of  each  such  fund  at  the  end of such month. Within ten days of the
 receipt of such accounting and reporting, the  director  of  the  budget
 shall  provide  the  comptroller  and  the  chair  of the senate finance
 committee and the chair of the assembly  ways  and  means  committee  an

 ing loan. Repayment shall be made by the comptroller from the first cash
