Purpose

This chapter supplements the standards for financial accounting for receivables, in Volume 4, Chapter 3, and for budgetary accounting for reimbursements, in Volume 3, Chapter 15. It provides guidance on the amounts that shall be recouped when DoD Components perform work or sell property within the Department of Defense, to other U.S. Government agencies and to private parties. This chapter does not provide authority to sell to private parties. Specific legal authority must be identified to make such sales. Activities performing reimbursable operations must be able to identify the statutory authority for their work performed for others.
