Financial Management: Allegation to the Defense Hotline on the Use of Funds by Navy Region Southeast

Abstract

Who Should Read This Report and Why? The Commander, Navy Region Southeast (region) accounting and budgeting personnel who provide program and strategy execution assistance for Navy commands should read this report. Those involved with any aspect of financial data management will want to make sure that financial reports accurately reflect the official appropriation information. Background. The audit was performed in response to a complaint made to the Defense Hotline. The complainant alleged the region misused $4.4 million and that the money was expensed from the Pine Castle activity, a bombing range in central Florida. The complainant also stated that when a large discrepancy between money appropriated and money expensed was shown in the region database, a work-around was programmed in an attempt to correct the funds discrepancy. A discussion of the Defense Hotline allegation (the allegation) and conclusions is in the finding section of this report.
