Best Answer

$2.9 billion

If this question is trying to get at the amount of money Republican VP Nominee Sarah Palin has been managing, it is estimated that the 2007 Alaska budget was the 32nd biggest in the nation at $5.5 billion dollars in expenditures.

PLEASE NOTE: According to the state of Alaska's official website, the budget for Alaska in FY2009 will be approximately $9 billion, with close to $11 billion in revenue.

Chicago has a city budget of 6.3 billion, LA has a city budget of 7 billion, and New York City has a city budget of a whopping 59 billion.

ALASKA is like NO OTHER STATE, COUNTRY OR CITY - It has NO state Income Tax and NO state sales tax and it sends cash money to its citizens each year. The state is primarily funded by Oil and Gas related revenues and money from the Federal Government.

In 2007 85.76% of Alaska state total tax revenue (TTT) came from the oil industry. (in the form of 4 different taxes).

By Comparison the University of California budget is $19.5 billion.
