The Federal Financial Management Act of 1994 requires the Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, to prepare Government-wide financial statements beginning in FY 1997. Office of Management and Budget and DoD Guidance on Form and Content of Audited Financial Statements requires that amounts reported in the footnotes be consistent with amounts reported as line items of the principal financial statements. In addition, financial information reported in multiple footnotes should be reported consistently throughout the financial statements. The Statement of Financial Position reported total assets of$l.33 trillion and total liabilities of $949 billion for FY 1997. On February 27, 1998 we issued a disclaimer of opinion on the DoD Consolidated Financial Statements for FY 1997. We issued our reports on internal controls and compliance with laws and regulations on June 22, 1998. The overall audit objective was to determine whether the DoD Consolidated Financial Statements for FY 1997 were presented fairly in accordance with Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 94-01, "Form and Content of Agency Financial Statements," November 16, 1993, as supplemented by Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 97-01, "Form and Content of Agency Financial Statements," October 16, 1996.

Introduction. This report is the second and final report on the compilation by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Indianapolis Center of the FY 1997 Financial Statements for Other Defense Organizations. This report also summarizes conditions affecting the compilation process as reported in previous Inspector General, DoD, audit reports. We performed the audit in response to the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended by the Federal Financial Management Act of 1994, which requires that DoD provide audited financial statements to the Office of Management and Budget. The DoD Consolidating Financial Statements for FY 1997 included financial statements for a reporting entity called "Other Defense Organizations" that represents a consolidation of financial information from 44 Defense organizations, funds, and accounts using Treasury Index No. 97. The DFAS Indianapolis Center is responsible for preparing financial statements for Other Defense Organizations from information generated by multiple accounting systems and accounting offices. During FY 1997, the 44 Defense agencies, funds, and accounts included in Other Defense Organizations were appropriated $39.1 billion, and their financial statements showed assets of $46.5 billion, liabilities of $222.2 billion, revenues and financing sources of $50 billion, and expenses of $49.7 billion.

The Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended by the Federal Financial Management Act of 1994, requires the Inspector General, DoD, or an appointee to audit the DoD financial statements. We delegated the audit of the FY 1997 Air Force General Funds Consolidated Financial Statements to the Air Force Audit Agency. The Defense Finance and Accounting Service Denver Center maintained accounting records and prepared the FY 1997 financial statements for the Air Force. More than $343 billion in total assets was reported at year's end in these statements, and total revenues for the year exceeded $64 billion. The Air Force Audit Agency disclaimed an opinion on these statements. Additionally, although the Office of Management and Budget does not require budgetary resource reporting until FY 1998, the Air Force implemented the reporting requirements early and included the Statement of Budgetary Resources in the FY 1997 Consolidated Financial Statements. Since the Air Force Audit Agency has not completed sufficient audit work to determine whether the Statement of Budgetary Resources is fairly presented, our compilation review of this statement continues. The Defense Finance and Accounting Service Denver Center compiles financial data and prepares financial statements for both the Air Force General Funds and Working Capital Funds. Our audit focused on the processing of financial data by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Denver Center to compile the FY 1997 Air Force General Funds Financial Statements. Audit Objectives. The primary audit objective was to determine whether the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Denver Center consistently and accurately compiled financial data from field activities and other sources for the financial statements of the Air Force General Funds. Additionally, we reviewed internal controls and compliance with laws and regulations related to the objectives. We also reviewed the adequacy of the management control program.

We performed the audit in response to the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended by the Federal Financial Management Act of 1994, which requires DoD and other Government agencies to prepare consolidated financial statements for FY 1996 and each succeeding year. The DoD Consolidated Financial Statements for FY 1997 include financial statements for a reporting entity entitled "Other Defense Organizations." This entity represents a consolidation of financial information from various Defense organizations and funds that use the Treasury Index 97 (Department 97) symbol, including the Military Departments. During FY 1997, the 44 Defense organizations and funds included in Other Defense Organizations received $39.1 billion in direct appropriations, and their financial statements showed total assets of $46.5 billion and liabilities of $222.2 billion. The overall audit objective was to assess internal controls and compliance with laws and regulations used to compile the FY 1997 Financial Statements of Other Defense Organizations.

The Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended by the Federal Financial Management Act of 1994, requires the Inspector General, DoD, to audit the DoD financial statements. We delegated the audit of the FY 1996 Air Force Consolidated Financial Statements to the Air Force Audit Agency. The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Denver Center maintained accounting records and prepared the FY 1996 financial statements for the Air Force. More than $342 billion in total assets was reported at year's end in these statements, and total revenues for the year exceeded $59 billion. The Air Force Audit Agency disclaimed an opinion on these statements. Our audit focused on the Chief Financial Officers Reporting System used by the DFAS Denver Center to compile the FY 1996 Air Force financial statements. The DFAS Denver Center developed the Chief Financial Officers Reporting System at a cost of $586,750. The primary audit objective was to determine whether the DFAS Denver Center consistently and accurately compiled financial data from field activities and other sources for the FY 1996 Air Force financial statements. We also determined whether FY 1996 ending balances reported by the DFAS Denver Center were supportable for use as beginning balances in the FY 1997 financial statements. In addition, we evaluated the DFAS Denver Center's compliance with applicable laws and regulations and its internal control program as related to our objectives. Although significant financial management challenges remain, the DFAS Denver Center completed corrective actions on 16 of 28 prior recommendations made by the Inspector General, DoD, to improve the process of compiling the Air Force financial statements.
