Dec. 11--TRENTON, N.J.--Two economic consulting firms hired by the state estimate that New Jersey's revenue shortfall this year could top $1.4 billion -- double what the DiFrancesco administration has publicly acknowledged.

In a separate development, Moody's Investors Service late yesterday changed the state's rating outlook from stable to negative.

A budget task force assembled by Gov.-elect James E. McGreevey discovered the revised projections while reviewing budget documents during the transition. The task force included the projections in a six-page memo on the budget that was sent to legislators last week.

Economy.com, one of the consultants, warned last month in a report to the state Department of Treasury that the revenue shortfall could reach $1.8 billion, while Deloitte & Touche placed the figure at $1.4 billion, according to the memo.
