(b) (1) (A) Those state revenues shall be prorated between the relief fund and the political subdivision based upon the total number of members active and retired and beneficiaries covered by the relief fund and by the Arkansas Local Police and Fire Retirement System.

(B) However, the amount allocated:

(i) To the political subdivision shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the cost as calculated under 24-11-214(e)(8); and

(2) In the case of multiple beneficiaries of a single deceased member, those individuals shall be counted as one (1) for purposes of this section.

(c) If there is a mixture of employees acquiring paid service and employees acquiring volunteer service, one (1) paid service employee shall be equal to five (5) volunteer service employees for prorating purposes.

(d) Each political subdivision without a relief fund in effect July 1, 1981, which subsequently covers its fire or police department under the system shall also receive insurance revenues.

(e) All moneys so received by the political subdivisions shall be applied to the employer contribution required to support this system.
