MATTER  C


DIGEST:


I70I 7


DATE: August 4, 1980


F: Leonard W. Alphin - Miscellaneous expenses-
   for replacement of draperies and forfeiture
   loss on orthodontic contract

1.   Employee claims reimbursement
     as miscellaneous expense for
     cost of custom draperies that
     he conveyed to purchaser of
     residence at old station inci-
     dent to transfer of permanent
     duty station. There is no
     authority for reimbursement
     of claimed expense. Situation
     is tantamount to inclusion of
     value of draperies in sale price
     of house and Federal Travel
     Regulations paragraph 2-3.1c(l)
     prohibits reimbursement for cost
     items in selling or buying real
     and personal property.

2.   Transferred employee reclaims
     forfeiture losses on orthodontic
     contracts for treatment of children
     denied by agency on ground losses
     were nominal since contracts re-
     quired payments in full during
     initial treatment periods and none
     during 3-year periods when children
     wore retainers. Employee may be
     reimbursed because arrangement pro-
     vided for prepayment of treatments
     during retainer periods and there
     were forfeitures for treatments not
     made.  Forfeitures should be deter-
     mined by prorating dollar amounts of
     contracts over total months of treat-
     ments made by first orthodontist
     (including those in retention period)
     plus number of months required to
     complete treatment by new orthodontist.
