The @fund_array array doesn't contain information about the raw data used to create it. For that reason, it would be difficult to report the raw data while manipulating @fund_array without changing its structure.
Here's a rewrite of sample.pl. It does the same thing you were doing without the arrays. It is not exactly the same output. I left the trailing pipe off the end of each record. It is uncommon for it to be there.
You should be able to find the line number of sample.txt from the uninitialized error you are receiving. I unsuccessfully tried to reproduce your error by corrupting the data myself. Let us know if you find the error in your data.
HTH,
