Abstract
Public Law 101-576, the "Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990," as amended by Public Law 103-356, the "Federal Financial Management Act of 1994," requires financial statement audits by the Inspector General, DoD, and prescribes the responsibilities of management and the auditors with regard to financial statements, internal controls, and compliance with laws and regulations. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls and for complying with laws and regulations applicable to DLA financial accounting and reporting. Our responsibility is to render an opinion on the financial statements based on our work, and to determine whether internal controls were adequate and whether management complied with applicable laws and regulations. The overall objective of our audit was to determine whether the DLA Working Capital Fund Financial Statements for FY 1998 were presented fairly and in accordance with Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 97-01, "Form and Content of Agency Financial Statements," October 16, 1996, as amended on November 20, 1998. We also performed tests of internal controls and compliance with laws and regulations.
