Future Years Defense Program: Comparison of Planned Funding Levels for the 2000 and 2001 Programs (Letter Report, 06/14/2000, GAO/NSIAD-00-179)
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO compared the planned funding
levels for the common years of the Department of Defense's (DOD) fiscal
years (FY) 2000 and 2001 Future Years Defense Program (FYDP).
GAO noted that: (1) in constant dollars, there are only minor increases
in the projected year-to-year funding totals over the common 5-year
period, 2001-2005, from the 2000 FYDP to the 2001 FYDP; (2) DOD plans to
increase total funding over the 5-year period by $15.8 billion, or 1.1
percent, over the total funding projected in the 2000 FYDP; (3) although
total programmed funds for military personnel remain virtually the same
in this year's FYDP as in last year's FYDP, programmed personnel funds
for Army and Air Force active forces decline, whereas programmed funds
for other forces increase; (4) the largest funding increase in the
operation and maintenance accounts is $9.7 billion, which is programmed
for overseas contingencies; (5) while DOD's programmed procurement
spending remains above the $60 billion threshold recommended by the last
Quadrennial Defense Review in 1997, the 2001 FYDP projects a
$3.2-billion decrease, or 1 percent, from last year's FYDP projections;
(6) research, development, test, and evaluation is programmed to receive
the largest appropriation increase ($15.9 billion, or 9.6 percent) and,
within this category, the defensewide account is programmed to receive
the largest increase ($8.3 billion); and (7) the total reduction in
military construction funds would be greater than $2.2 billion were it
not for $1.9 billion of new funds in the 2001 FYDP for a base
realignment and closure round in 2003.

The Honorable John R. Kasich
Chairman, Committee on the Budget
House of Representatives
Dear Mr. Chairman:
The Department of Defense's (DOD) Future Years Defense Program (FYDP) is the
official document that summarizes the force levels and funding associated
with specific programs that the Secretary of Defense would like to see
approved by Congress. The FYDP presents estimated appropriation needs for
the budget year for which funds are being requested from Congress and at
least the 4 years following it. The fiscal year 2000 FYDP requested $1,434
billion total funding for fiscal years
2001-2005, whereas the fiscal year 2001 FYDP requests $1,450 billion total
funding for the same 5-year period.1 As requested, we compared the planned
funding levels for the common years of the fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year
2001 FYDP requests.
The FYDP reflects decisions made in the DOD Planning, Programming, and
Budgeting System, which is intended to produce the best possible mixture of
forces, equipment, and support to accomplish DOD's mission. The 2000 FYDP
supported the President's 2000 budget and included budget estimates for
2000-2005. The 2001 FYDP supports the President's 2001 budget and includes
budget estimates for 2001-2005.
In constant dollars, there are only minor increases in the projected
year-to-year funding totals over the common 5-year period, 2001-2005, from
the 2000 FYDP to the 2001 FYDP. DOD plans to increase total funding over the
5-year period by $15.8 billion, or 1.1 percent, over the total funding
projected in the 2000 FYDP. Table 1 compares the two plans, by primary
appropriation category.

Note: Totals may not add due to rounding.
Source: Our analysis of FYDP data.
Although total programmed funds for military personnel remain virtually the
same in this year's FYDP as in last year's FYDP, programmed personnel funds
for Army and Air Force active forces decline, whereas programmed funds for
other forces increase. The largest funding increase in the operation and
maintenance accounts is $9.7 billion, which is programmed for overseas
contingencies. While DOD's programmed procurement spending remains above the
$60-billion threshold recommended by the last
Quadrennial Defense Review in 1997,2 the 2001 FYDP projects a $3.2-billion
decrease, or 1 percent, from last year's FYDP projections. Research,
development, test, and evaluation is programmed to receive the largest
appropriation increase ($15.9 billion, or 9.6 percent) and, within this
category, the defensewide account is programmed to receive the largest
increase ($8.3 billion). The total reduction in military construction funds
would be greater than the $2.2 billion shown in table 1 were it not for
$1.9 billion of new funds in the 2001 FYDP for a base realignment and
closure round in 2003. DOD reviewed a draft of this report and stated that
the funding data are accurate.
Decline Whereas Programmed Funds for Other Forces Increase
The military personnel appropriation includes funds for such items as active
and reserve component pay and allowances, retirement contributions, and
permanent change of station travel. As table 2 shows, total programmed funds
for military personnel remain virtually the same in this year's FYDP as in
last year's FYDP. However, programmed personnel funds for Army and Air Force
active forces decline whereas programmed funds for other forces increase.
Active Army and Air Force military personnel accounts show decreases of $2.2
billion and $0.5 billion, respectively. All other personnel accounts in the
2001 FYDP are projected to increase over the projections shown in the 2000
FYDP. Projected savings from planned reduction in reserve componentpersonnel
are shown in the Reserve component personnel, Army account.

Largest Operation and Maintenance Increase
The operation and maintenance (O&M) appropriation includes funds for such
items as civilian personnel management and pay and benefits; transportation;
health and child care; troop training; and maintenance of tanks, airplanes,
ships, and related equipment. As table 3 shows, O&M funds programmed in the
2001 FYDP show a total increase of about
$8.5 billion, or 1.6 percent, from the funds programmed in the 2000 FYDP.
The largest increase, $9.7 billion, is planned for the Overseas Contingency
Operations Transfer Fund.3 Other large increases are planned for the Navy
($2.6 billion), the Defense Health Program ($615 million), the Air National
Guard ($534 million), and the Army National Guard ($490 million). The
biggest decreases are planned for the Army and the Air Force, $3.8 and
$2.4 billion, respectively.

Projection
The procurement appropriation includes funds to acquire items such as
weapons and their components, communications and support equipment,
munitions, and spare parts. While DOD's programmed procurement spending
remains above the $60-billion annual threshold recommended by the last
Quadrennial Defense Review in 1997, the 2001 FYDP projects a $3.2-billion,
or 1-percent, decrease from last year's FYDP. As table 4 shows, all of the
services project decreases in their procurement spending in the 2001 FYDP
from the levels projected in the 2000 FYDP with the exception of the Air
Force, which shows a $1-billion increase over last year's level. Appendix I
shows more detailed breakouts of the appropriation categories.

Largest Appropriation Increase
The research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) appropriation
includes funds for the development and testing of weapons and equipment,
development of prototypes, support of basic research, and exploratory
development of technologies with potential military applications. As table 5
shows, RDT&E total planned funds in the 2001 FYDP are $15.9 billion, or 9.6
percent, greater than the projected funds in the 2000 FYDP. The largest
increase, $8.3 billion, is programmed for the defensewide account. In
addition, all of the military services project increases in their accounts
in excess of $2 billion.

Without New Funds for Base Closures
The military construction appropriation includes funds to acquire,
construct, and furnish installations and facilities and perform major
repairs of facilities. As table 6 shows, DOD's total projected military
construction funds in the 2001 FYDP are $2.2 billion lower than that
projected in the 2000 FYDP. All of the military construction accounts,
except for two base realignment and closure accounts, show a decrease in
funds. The total reduction in military construction funds would be greater
than the
$2.2 billion were it not for $1.9 billion of new funds in the 2001 FYDP for
a base realignment and closure round in 2003. The largest decreases occur in
the military construction, defensewide account ($1.6 billion); the active
Air Force account ($947 million); the base realignment and closure accounts,
environmental restoration ($944 million); and the active Navy account ($593
million). DOD is requesting congressional approval for two additional base
realignment and closure rounds in 2003 and 2005. The 2001 FYDP includes
approximately $653 million in 2004 and $1.3 billion in 2005 to begin
implementation of a 2003 base closure round.

Than Last Year's Projection
The family housing appropriation includes funds for the construction,
improvement, operations, maintenance, and leasing of military family
housing. As shown in table 7, total funds for family housing in the 2001
FYDP show only a slight increase of $242 million, or 1.3 percent, from the
2000 FYDP request. The Army's and the Navy's programs project increases of
over $500 million each, while the Air Force projects a $296-million
decrease.

In oral comments on a draft of this report, the Director, Programming and
Fiscal Economics, Program Analysis and Evalution, Office of the Secretary of
Defense, said that the funding data presented in the report are accurate.
To compare the two FYDPs, we analyzed funding data from the 2000 and 2001
FYDPs for fiscal years 2001-2005. We adjusted the current dollars to
constant 2001 dollars using appropriate DOD Comptroller inflation indexes.
We did not test DOD's management controls of the FYDP data or verify the
data contained in either the 2000 or the 2001 FYDP. However, we compared
DOD's automated FYDP data with published documents DOD provided.
Specifically, we compared total budget estimates, appropriation totals,
military and civilian personnel levels, force structure levels, and some
specific program information. Based on our comparison, we were satisfied
that the automated FYDP data and published data were in agreement. We did
not analyze the reasons for the changes in planned funding because we plan
to discuss those reasons, together with the risks that may prevent the 2001
FYDP from being implemented as planned, in a report to be issued later this
year.
Our review was conducted from March through May 2000 in accordance with
generally accepted government auditing standards.
We are sending copies of this report to other appropriate congressional
committees; the Honorable William Cohen, Secretary of Defense; the Honorable
F. Whitten Peters, Secretary of the Air Force; the Honorable Louis Caldera,
Secretary of the Army; and the Honorable Richard Danzig, Secretary of the
Navy. We will also provide copies to others upon request.
If you have any questions concerning this report, please call Robert
Pelletier on (202) 512-4032. Key contributors to this report were
George O. Morse, Suzanne Wren, Mary Jo LaCasse, and Patricia Lentini.

1. Unless otherwise stated, the years and dollars shown in this report are
on a fiscal year basis and in constant fiscal year 2001 dollars.
2. The Review, an examination of America's defense needs from 1997 to 2015,
attempted to achieve a better balance in DOD's financial plans to meet its
military forces' current requirements and address long-term modernization
needs.
3. In the DOD Appropriations Act of 1997 (P.L. 104-208), Congress
established the Overseas Contingency Operations Transfer Fund to pay for
ongoing contingency operations. Congress appropriates money to the Fund. As
an operation unfolds during the year, DOD can transfer money directly from
the Fund to the military services' O&M accounts.
