      3 months of base pay

    • C.

This means that any decimals or cents in the computation will be disregarded and the final amount will be rounded to the nearest whole dollar. Rounding off the figures ensures that the advance pay amount is a whole number and makes it easier for repayment calculations and financial record-keeping.

    • B.

      Deducting payments made to members from their pay account

    Voucher balancing prevents fraud by deducting payments made to members from their pay account. This ensures that the payments made to members are accurately recorded and deducted from their pay account, preventing any fraudulent activity or discrepancies in the payment process. By deducting the payments directly from the pay account, it ensures that the funds are properly accounted for and reduces the risk of fraudulent transactions or misappropriation of funds.

      The former member dies during the 120-day period following date or discharge under other than honorable conditions

    Correct Answer
    D. The former member dies during the 120-day period following date or discharge under other than honorable conditions
    Explanation
    The death gratuity is paid to eligible beneficiaries in most cases, except when the former member dies during the 120-day period following date or discharge under other than honorable conditions. This means that if a former member of the military dies within 120 days of their discharge under conditions that are not honorable, their beneficiaries will not receive the death gratuity.

    How many miles constitute 1 travel day and what are the minimum remaining miles that would constitute an aditional travel day?

    • A.

      350; 51

    • B.

      401; 51

    • C.

      350; 176

    • D.

      401; 176

    Correct Answer
    A. 350; 51
    Explanation
    The given answer states that 350 miles constitute 1 travel day and the minimum remaining miles that would constitute an additional travel day is 51. This means that if someone travels 350 miles in a day, it is considered a full travel day. However, if they travel an additional 51 miles, it would count as an extra travel day.

    Which step of computing mixed modes reimbursement compares the monetary allowance in lieu of transportation (MALT) PLUS cost to the mixed modes cost?

    • A.

      Step 1

    • B.

      Step 2

    • C.

      Step 3

    • D.

      Step 4

    Correct Answer
    C. Step 3
    Explanation
    Step 3 of computing mixed modes reimbursement compares the monetary allowance in lieu of transportation (MALT) PLUS cost to the mixed modes cost. This step is crucial in determining whether the MALT payment, which is provided as a substitute for transportation expenses, is sufficient to cover the actual cost of using mixed modes of transportation. By comparing these two values, it helps ensure that the reimbursement is fair and accurately reflects the expenses incurred by the individual.

    Rate this question:

  • 38. 

    What step of computing allowable travel time for mixed modes has you add 1 day of travel by common carrier?

    • A.

      Step 1

    • B.

      Step 2

    • C.

      Step 3

    • D.

      Step 4

    Correct Answer
    C. Step 3
    Explanation
    In Step 3 of computing allowable travel time for mixed modes, you add 1 day of travel by common carrier. This suggests that common carrier transportation is considered as an additional mode of travel, and 1 day is allocated for this mode. The other steps in the process may involve calculating the travel time for other modes of transportation or determining the total allowable travel time for the journey. However, without further context or information about the specific method or calculation being used, it is difficult to provide a comprehensive explanation.

    When determining allowable travel time for overseas travel, which of the following is considered an ordered travel point?

    • A.

      Closest airport

    • B.

      Authorized delay (AD)

    • C.

      Port of Embarkation (POE)

    • D.

      Permanent Duty Station (PDS)

    Correct Answer
    C. Port of Embarkation (POE)
    Explanation
    The Port of Embarkation (POE) is considered an ordered travel point when determining allowable travel time for overseas travel. This is because the POE is the specific location where individuals begin their journey or embark on their overseas travel. It is the starting point for international travel and is therefore an important factor to consider when determining travel time and logistics. The closest airport, authorized delay (AD), and permanent duty station (PDS) may also be relevant in travel planning, but they do not specifically refer to the ordered travel point like the POE does.

    Rate this question:

  • 41. 

    When is per diem prorated during a member's PCS move using a POV?

    • A.

      The member leaves the last PDS after 1800 hours

    • B.

      Never; per diem is always payable on a whole day basis

    • C.

      The member arrives at the new PDS before 1200 hours

    • D.

      When lodging costs are not incurred

    Correct Answer
    B. Never; per diem is always payable on a whole day basis
    Explanation
    Per diem is a daily allowance given to cover expenses such as lodging, meals, and incidental costs during a member's PCS (Permanent Change of Station) move. In this case, the correct answer states that per diem is never prorated during a member's PCS move using a POV (Personally Owned Vehicle). This means that regardless of the time of departure or arrival, the member will receive the full daily allowance for that day. The explanation is based on the fact that per diem is always payable on a whole day basis, indicating that partial days are not considered for proration.

This travel order will outline the details of the member's travel arrangements, such as the destination, dates, and any necessary accommodations. Creating a travel order is an important step in the process as it helps to ensure that the member's travel plans are properly documented and authorized.

    Explanation
    Members have 180 days to complete separation travel, unless additional time is authorized or approved. This means that they are given six months to arrange and complete their travel after their separation from the military. This allows them sufficient time to make necessary arrangements, such as booking flights, packing, and tying up any loose ends before their departure.

    When is dislocation allowance (DLA) paid for retirement travel?

    • A.

      The member is medically retired

    • B.

      DLA is not paid for retirement travel

    • C.

      The member retires in conjunction with the completion of a remote overseas tour

    • D.

      The member was involuntarily retired due to the reduction in force between 1 October 1990 and 30 September 1995

    Correct Answer
    B. DLA is not paid for retirement travel
    Explanation
    Dislocation Allowance (DLA) is a payment given to members of the military to help cover the costs of relocating. However, DLA is not paid for retirement travel. This means that when a member retires from the military and travels to their retirement location, they are not eligible to receive DLA for this travel. DLA is only paid in specific circumstances such as when a member is medically retired, retires after completing a remote overseas tour, or is involuntarily retired due to a reduction in force between specific dates.

    • A.

      To the follow-on PDS only after orders are issued

    • B.

      To a designated place before the PCS only

    • C.

      Only to the new PDS limited to the original designated location

    • D.

      To the designated location and on the subsequent PCS

    Correct Answer
    D. To the designated location and on the subsequent PCS
    Explanation
    When a member is assigned to a dependent restricted tour, travel and transportation allowances are authorized for relocating the dependents to the designated location and on the subsequent Permanent Change of Station (PCS). This means that the dependents can only receive these allowances for moving to the specified location and then again when they have to move to the next PCS location. The allowances are not authorized for any other circumstances or locations.

This means verifying if the member took any leave before their retirement date and if it was correctly accounted for. This is important as any unused leave could affect the member's final pay and benefits.
