Which UTC code corresponds to a Budget Officer (1st Lt/Capt)?

Which UTC code corresponds to a Budget Officer (1st Lt/Capt)?

• A. XFFA3
• B. XFFA4
• C. XFFA1
• D. XFFA7

Answer: (B)

Matching a job title and rank to its UTC code is what this item tests. In the PFMC system, UTCs in the XFFA family belong to the Financial Management function, and the trailing digit identifies the specific role. For a Budget Officer at the 1st Lieutenant or Captain level, the code with the trailing digit four is used. That makes the code with the final digit four the correct match. The other codes in the same XFFA family correspond to different financial management roles, not the Budget Officer position, which is why they don’t fit.
