Abstract
For most of the history of this country, cash management
within the Federal government consisted primarily of
accounting for receipts and expenditures. With the significant
increase in Federal spending in the last few decades,
a need for tighter controls and greater effectiveness in
financial management policies has developed. In the late
1970 's, the Treasury Department, supported by the Office of
Management and Budget, endeavored to improve cash management
within the Federal sector. The result was a myriad of
directives and circulars requiring agencies to tighten the
control and expedite the processing of Federal receipts and
expenditures
.
The purpose of this thesis is twofold. First, it is to
provide a general overview of current Department of the
Treasury requirements and the current status of Marine Corps
efforts in implementing policy to satisfy those requirements.
And second, it will bring under one cover, the
historical background, directive literary references, current
requirements, and current Marine Corps policy for use as an
all-encompassing reference for future Marine Corps graduates.
