SUBJECT:                     TIRNO-95-D-00062:  Incurred Costs Audit for Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 1998 (Audit #200210002.022)

                                        

The Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) examined the contractor’s January 6, 2000 certified final indirect cost rate proposal and related books and records for reimbursement of Fiscal Year 1998 incurred costs.  The purpose of the examination was to determine the allowability of direct costs and indirect cost rates and establish audit determined indirect cost rates for January 1 through December 31, 1998.   The proposed rates apply primarily to flexibly-priced contracts.

 

The DCAA stated that its review of direct costs was limited to Department of Defense and Department of the Treasury contracts.  The DCAA examination disclosed no exceptions to the proposed indirect rates and to the proposed direct costs.  The contractor’s accounting system is considered adequate for accumulating, reporting, and billing on government contracts.

 

The information in this report should not be used for purposes other than that intended without prior consultation with the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration regarding its applicability.

 

If you have any questions, please contact me at (202) 622-6510 or Daniel R. Devlin, Assistant Inspector General for Audit (Headquarters Operations and Exempt Organizations Programs), at (202) 622-8500.
