Answer 1

Answer:

C) Does a bona fide need exist in the year of execution authorized by the appropriation?

Bona fide is a rule which helps to ensure that, there is a bona fide need for the appropriation of money in a given fiscal year. In a situation there is none, then there would be no need for any allocation of money.
