What are the two types of easily mishandled funds?

The correct answer is the identification of change funds and imprest funds as two types of easily mishandled funds. Change funds are typically small amounts of cash stored for making change during transactions. Because these funds are often handled informally and may be accessed by multiple individuals, they carry a risk of being misplaced or miscounted.

Imprest funds, on the other hand, are fixed amounts of cash provided for specific purposes, such as small purchases or cash disbursements. The need for meticulous tracking and management of these funds makes them prone to mishandling, especially if clear protocols are not followed.

Understanding the characteristics and management needs of these fund types helps ensure proper accountability and reduces the chances of errors or fraud. This awareness is crucial for maintaining financial integrity in any organization, including within the context of USAF Services operations.
