   Department of Justice

   Dear Mr. Rooney:

        Subject: LApproval of Accounting Procedures Used
                   for the Departmnmt of Justice Working
                   Capital Fundj(FG'.ASI -80-94)

        Your letter of September 26, 1980, requests approval of
   accounting procedures used for the Dfcnartment of Justice Work-
   ing Capital Fund. The Working Cutilal Fund represents a sig-
   nificant change to the Depart in.ut 's approved adIministrative
   accounting sys4 'm esion.

        We have evaluated the Working Capital Fund procedures and
   have found them to be in confor  -aece with Title 2 of the Gen-
   eral Accounting Office Policy and Procedures Manual for Guidance
   of Federal Agencies.

        We did not evaluate the automated aspects of the system
   since the Department maintains that the Working Capital Fund
   changes did not necessitate any changes to the automated system
   we approved in February 1973.

        To maintain the approved status of the administrative
   design, any further changes should be discussed with my staff
   and, if deemed significant, submitted formally for approval.

        We suggest that the Departme-nt's internal auditors
    periodically review the Working Capital Fund accounting pro-
    cedures in operation to assure that they are operating in
    accordance with the approved design.

                                        Sincerely yours,




                                        D. L. Scantlobury
