Entity intragovernmental accounts receivable consist of amounts due from other U.S. Government agencies. No allowance has been established for the intragovernmental accounts receivable, which are considered to be 100 percent collectible. A 100 percent allowance for uncollectable amounts is estimated for accounts receivable due from the public which are more than one year past due. Disbursing Authority Receivable from USDA consists of obligational authority from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Commodity Credit Corporation. The authority is for payment of transportation costs incurred by USAID associated with the shipment of Title II and III commodities; Farmer-to-Farmer Technical Assistance Programs; and for assistance to private voluntary organizations, cooperatives, and international organizations. Collections against this receivable are realized when USAID requests a transfer of funds from USDA to cover incurred expenses. In FY 2006, USDA elected to liquidate this receivable. At the end of 2005, the outstanding receivable with USDA was $820 million.

All other entity accounts receivable consist of amounts managed by missions or USAID/Washington. These receivables consist of non-program related receivables such as overdue advances, unrecovered advances, audit findings, and any interest related to these types of receivables. A 100 percent allowance for uncollectible amounts is estimated for accounts receivable due from the public which are more than one year past due. Accounts receivable from missions are collected and recorded to the respective appropriation.

Interest receivable is calculated separately and there is no interest included in the accounts receivable listed above.

The account receivable with the public for FY 2006 is $91,173 which consists of $85,498 entity and $5,675 non-entity. Account receivables with the public for FY 2005 was $79,617 which consists of $73,692 entity and $5,925 non-entity.
