While some of it is factual, portions are assumptions and best guesses. There are several other things that need to be addressed in a document such as this. I will bring these issues up at the 10 July meeting. Any input and thoughts on the subject would be gratly appreciated. STAT OF Advisor/CFAF Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/10/13: CIA-RDP89G00643R001300100015-6 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/10/13: CIA-RDP89G00643R001300100015-6 CEAF PROCIDURES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Requests for disbursements from CEAF funds will be forwarded to the Chairperson of the CFAF Boarcl for approval by the Board. The Board has exclusive responsibility on behalf of all L~gency employees for approving uses of the fund for the general benefit and morale of Agency employees at headquarters and in the field. Each request for-use of the CFAF will be considered by the Board and approved or disapproved on merit. The Board will determine the type and amount of assistance to be rendered (grant or loan) and the terms of the loans, including period of the loan, repayment plan, and the amount of interest, if any, to be charged. Requests for disbursement of funds may be for advances for subsequent payment of authorized purposes or requests for reimbursements already expended for an approved purpose. Requests for reimbursement must be accompanied by appropriate receipts for the expense in question. Approved requests, evidenced by the signature of the Chairperson, will be forwarded to the F~ployees Activity Association (FAA) accountant in room G F1+4 headquarters The EAA accountant will prepare a CEAF check drawn on a Northwest Federal Credit Union share-draft account for the approved amount of the disbursement. If the request is for an advance, the EAA accountant, when possible, will prepare a check for less than the amount of the advance to preclude the necessity of making refunds and the additional administrative processes involved. The prepared checks will be forwarded for signature to the Chief, or Deputy Chief, Personal Services Branch, of the Office of Personnel. Either officer is authorized to sign the CEAF checks. In addition to the check signing authority, the Chief and Deputy Chief of the Personal Services Branch are authorized access to the other CEAF savings in NWFCU accounts. The signed checks will be returned to the EAA accountant for forwarding to authorized recipients. Appropriate documentation of all transactions will be maintained by the FAA accountant. Transactions involving advances of funds will be established as a suspense item on EAA records. Such suspenses will be cleared upon satisfactory accounting for the advance by the recipient of the funds in question. Copies of all documentation (including copies of the CEAF checks) supporting completed transactions will be forwarded to the Chief, Accounts Division, Office of Finance. in room 512 Key Building with a notation that the funds have been disbursed.

The normal recording entries are a debit to G.L. 3165 (Miscellaneous Assets and Personal Effects Held in Trust) and a credit to GL. 1913 (Liability for Cash, Miscellaneous Assets and Personal Effects Held in Trust). Annually, and on a calendar year basis, Accounts Division will prepare a Statement of Financial Condition and Statement of Income and Expenses for CEgF. The figures and documentation used for these statements are the total activity for any calendar year as reflected by the FAA documentation maintained for the CEAF disbursements plus the interest earned on the CFAF funds during any calendar year. Accounts Division will perform a review of the activity recorded in G.L.1913 during the year to ensure that all entries are valid. Activity numbers are used by Accounts Division to record interest earned against particular CFAF investments; i.e., savings account, draft share account, certficates of deposit, etc. If the number of individual investments is expanded, new activity numbers will be assigned by Data Base Management Branch, Accounts Division. The annual reports prepared by Accounts Division will be forwarded to the Chairperson of the Board through the Financial Representative usually at the end of January or in February of any given year.
