The Navy Stock Fund (NSF) is a working capital fund used to purchase
and hold designated inventories of supply items at various stock points
until needed by a customer. The fund is currently comprised of ten
separate Budget Projects with total collections and expenditures
projected to be in excess of $ 1 8 bi 1 1 ion for Fiscal Year 1 986.
The authors examined the background and current operation of the NSF
with emphasis on identifying areas which would enable better cash
management within the NSF and thereby improve the overall cash position
of the U.S. Treasury.
Six areas not presently included in specific Federal cash management
programs were identified which offer potential NSF cash management
improvements. Ten specific cash management recommendations are
provided which would assist in minimizing the amount of NSF cash held
outside the Treasury Cash Account.
