Sec. 504. (a) The amount of $325,100,000 authorized to be appropriated by this Act for the development and procurement of the C–5A aircraft may be expended only for the reasonable and allocable direct and indirect costs incurred by the prime contractor under a contract entered into with the United States to carry out the C–5A aircraft program. No part of such amount may be used for— (1) direct costs of any other contract or activity of the prime contractor: (2) profit on any materials, supplies, or services which are sold or transferred between any division, subsidiary, or affiliate of the prime contractor under the common control of the prime con-tractor and such division, subsidiary, or affiliate; (3) bid and proposal costs, independent research and development costs, and the cost of other similar unsponsored technical effort; or (4) depreciation and amortization costs on property, plant, or equipment. Any of the costs referred to in the preceding sentence which would otherwise be allocable to any work funded by such $325,100,000 may not be allocated to other portions of the C–5A aircraft contract or to any other contract with the United States, but payments to C–5A aircraft subcontractors shall not be subject to the restriction referred to in such sentence. (b) Any payments from such $325,100,000 shall be made to the prime contractor through a special bank account from which such contractor may withdraw funds only after a request containing a detailed justification of the amount requested has been submitted to and approved by the contracting officer for the United States. All payments made from such special bank account shall be audited by the Defense Contract Audit Agency of the Department of Defense and, on a quarterly basis, by the General Accounting Office. The Comptroller General shall submit to the Congress not more than thirty days after the close of each quarter a report on the audit for such quarter performed by the General Accounting Office pursuant to this subsection. (c) The restrictions and controls provided for in this section with respect to the $325,100,000 referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall be in addition to such other restrictions and controls as may be prescribed by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of the Air Force.
