This report presents the results of our review of the
independent certified public accountants' audit of the
District of Columbia's breakdown of revenue derived from the
federal government and other sources for the year ended
September 30, 1992. The District of Columbia Budgetary
Efficiency Act of 1991 (Public Law 102-102) requires us to
review this breakdown and to report the results to your
Committees. The revenue from sources other than the federal
government serves as a basis for determining the authorized
amount of the federal payment to the District of Columbia.
The amount is determined using a formula specified in the
act.

RESULTS IN BRIEF

In the auditors' opinion, the District of Columbia's revenue
derived from federal and other sources as reported in its
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the year
ended September 30, 1992, is fairly presented in all
material respects in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Our work, limited to a review of the
District's-revenues reported in the CAFR, found no material
discrepancies to indicate that the auditors' opinion was
inappropriate or unreliable. We did find, however, that
about $8.7 million of federal revenue was included in other
local revenue sources.
