Memo – Elimination of Military Equipment Definition and Increase to Capitalization Threshold
Background on Capitalization Threshold Study • DoD capitalization threshold, $100k, established in 1999 excluded Military Equipment (ME) and may no longer be an appropriate threshold • OUSD(AT&L) P&EP supported capitalization threshold study in 2009 • Assumption was analyzing military equipment (ME) and general equipment (GE) together will significantly change the mix of assets being capitalized, warranting a study to assess the affects of a change in threshold (source: Mr. Easton’s “2013 Capitalization Threshold Study” memo issued 1 March 2013)
Initial Factors to Consider • Individual Component thresholds were not ideal • Bulk purchases were excluded as a possible threshold option, would result in losing ability to account for individual assets • Desired threshold as high as possible, while creating a minimal impact on DoD and individual Component financial statements • Army’s low dollar/high density asset mix creates challenges • Initial target for acceptable capitalization rates were in low to mid 90 percent range (re: 2009 study)
Preliminary Recommendations • Recommended options (as of 5 June 2013 – presented at meeting with Mr. Easton): • Recommendations and impacts based on implementing new threshold on retroactive approach • Intent was to capitalize, at least, 90% of assets at DoD and Component levels • Analysis excluded WCF • Army asset mix created challenges even at $250k threshold • OUSD(C) and OIG supported direction of analysis; however, determined 90% capitalization rate is unacceptable • Prospective implementation was discussed and agreed upon • Further analysis was required to support recommendations and measure future impacts based on new implementation direction
New Capitalization Threshold • Change to capitalization threshold policy: • $1M Navy (+USMC) and AF capitalization threshold (GF assets only); $250k DoD-wide capitalization threshold • Recommendation and analysis coordinated with DoD stakeholders, and well received by OUSD(C), OIG, and FIAR communities • Determine process and actions required to implement new capitalization threshold • P&EP will provide support and guidance to Components for implementation of new capitalization threshold
APSR Checklist • Checklist overview: • Tool to identify capabilities essential for a system to operate as an acceptable and auditable APSR for equipment • Reference guidance and directives that systems need to adhere to • Checklist determines difference between core requirements and addition capabilities that add value but are not required • “Bigger picture”: define parameters of an acceptable APSR • Checklist currently being coordinated with DPAP

Summary & Component Breakdown • Data Source: ME and GE asset listings which support the FY2012 Financial Statements from all Components and Agencies identified as Material for GE in latest FIAR Guidance • Navy (including USMC), Air Force, and Army account for 98.17% of total acquisition cost and 96.63% of total number of assets

Statement of Net Cost Analysis • Leveraging the 2009 study and further discussions on SNC impacts, 2% was determined to be the maximum acceptable change *Only analyzed Components with separate WCF statements in financial reporting Impact on SNC is less than 2% for potential recommendations
Impacts of Prospective Implementation GF Assets: Projected Five Year Impact For $1M/$200k scenario, the impact on equipment (net) to DoD and its Components for Year 1 and Year 5 are less than 5%, resulting in a capitalization rate greater than 95% WCF Assets: Projected Five Year Impact For $200k scenario, the impact on equipment (net) to DoD and its Components for Year 1 and Year 5 are less than 6%, resulting in a capitalization rate greater than 94%
