Which appropriation code is associated with Investigations (96X3121)?

• A. 96X3120
• B. 96X3119
• C. 96X3121
• D. 96X3122

Answer: (C)

Codes that designate budget areas work like a street address for funding within a department. The prefix (96X) sets the general year and fund category, while the trailing digits pinpoint the exact program area. In this system, the digits 3121 are the designation assigned to Investigations, so 96X3121 is the code that matches that program. Other codes with different final digits point to different activities, not Investigations. Therefore, the appropriation code associated with Investigations is 96X3121.
