Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal grant activity of The Carter Center, Inc. and subsidiary (the Center) and is presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The information in the Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance. Therefore, some amounts presented in the Schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the consolidated financial statements.
Indirect costs are applied to Federal grants in accordance with requirements of the various grants being administered. The Center did not elect to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate. The maximum rate applied to 2025 expenses was the approved rate of 15.57%. For purposes of calculating the indirect cost recovery rate, common area and depreciation expense are included in management and general operating expenses. See the Notes to the SEFA for chart/table.

Finding Details

During our substantive testwork over allowable costs, the engagement team selected a sample of forty (40) transactions which were charged to the CSO award. Within our sample, we identified two transactions, relating to one subrecipient, for which no documentation supporting its allowability was provided by the Center and therefore was inappropriately charged to the CSO award. Further, it was identified that the related subrecipient was not a subrecipient under the CSO award.
