Compilation of the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements at the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Indianapolis (Sustaining Forces)

摘要

This is the second in a series of reports issued by the Inspector General, DoD, related to the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements. The first report was on our oversight of the Army Audit Agency audit of the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements. This report summarizes the compilation process performed by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Indianapolis (Sustaining Forces), which maintains the Army departmental accounting records and compiles the Army General Fund financial statements. This audit was performed in response to the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended by the Federal Financial Management Act of 1994. We delegated the audit of the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements to the Army Audit Agency. We performed the work at Defense Finance and Accounting Service Indianapolis (Sustaining Forces) to determine whether their compilation of data for the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements complied with applicable laws and regulations. The Army Audit Agency disclaimed an opinion on the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements, and we concurred with the disclaimer of opinion. The FY 2000 Army General Fund Consolidated Balance Sheet reported total assets of $80.7 billion and total liabilities of $54.2 billion. The Army consolidated Statement of Net Cost reported net program costs of $87.8 billion for the period ending September 30, 2000. The combined Statement of Budgetary Resources reported total budgetary resources of $97.0 billion. The Notes to the FY 2000 Army General Fund Financial Statements should disclose material suspense account balances. A suspense account is an account for the temporary entry of charges or credits pending determination of their ultimate disposition.
