Sec. 1536. Crediting payments from purchases between executive 
        agencies
        
    (a) An advance payment made on an order under section 1535 of this 
title is credited to a special working fund that the Secretary of the 
Treasury considers necessary to be established. Except as provided in 
this section, any other payment is credited to the appropriation or fund 
against which charges were made to fill the order.
    (b) An amount paid under section 1535 of this title may be expended 
in providing goods or services or for a purpose specified for the 
appropriation or fund credited. Where goods are provided from stocks on 
hand, the amount received in payment is credited so as to be available 
to replace the goods unless--
        (1) another law authorizes the amount to be credited to some 
    other appropriation or fund; or
        (2) the head of the executive agency filling the order decides 
    that replacement is not necessary, in which case, the amount 
    received is deposited in the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts.

    (c) This section does not affect other laws about working funds.
