" (3) The fund shall be credited with— " (A) advances and reimbursements from available funds of the Commission or other agencies, or from other sources, for those services and supplies provided at rates estimated by the Commission as adequate to recover expenses of operation (including provision for accrued annual leave of employees and depreciation of equipment); and " (B) receipts from sales or exchanges of property, and payments for loss of or damage to property, accounted for under the fund. "(4) Any unobligated and unexpended balances in the fund which the Commission determines to be in excess of amounts needed for activities financed by the fund shall be deposited in the Treasury of the United States as miscellaneous receipts. "(5) The Commission shall prepare a business-type budget providing full disclosure of the results of operations for each of the functions performed by the Commission and financed by the fund, and such budget shall be transmitted to the Congress and considered, in the manner prescribed by law for wholly owned Government corporations.
