Report on the Audit of Foreign Direct Selling Costs
Abstract
This is our final report on the Audit of Foreign Direct Selling Costs. The Contract Management Directorate made the audit from October 1989 to January 1990 in response to a requirement in U.S.C., title 10, Sec. 2324(f)(5) (as amended by the FY 1989 Appropriations Act) (the Act), allowing foreign direct selling costs to be recovered on DoD contracts. Foreign direct selling costs are those costs related to direct selling efforts of contractors for selling their products to foreign customers. The Act required the Inspector General, DoD and the Comptroller General of the United States to submit reports, within 2 years after enactment of the Act, to the Committees on Armed Services and Appropriations of the Senate and House of Representatives. The objective of the audit was to assess whether DoD regulations provided the appropriate incentives to stimulate exports by the. U.S. Defense industry as required by the cost recovery provision of the Appropriations Act of FY 1989.
