A Pentagon audit has uncovered that Boeing has overcharged the Air Force millions for spare parts on its C-17 cargo planes.
The report found that the aerospace company charged up to an 10,000 percent markup for miscellaneous items, like basic bathroom soap dispensers, link alaskatoto tape, screws and ventilation fans.
The Defense Department's Office of the Inspector General revealed that it launched its investigation into Boeing's rates after receiving an anonymous tip to their hotline.
