Financial Information

MARC’s budget is complex and differs greatly from municipal and county budgets. Most of our revenues come from federal, state and private grants. Local government dues and fees make up a small, but significant, part of our budget. We also track contributed services — the value of personnel time, goods and services, used as in-kind match for grant funds — as both a revenue and an expense. Per federal guidelines, MARC uses an indirect cost allocation method to charge indirect and fringe benefit costs to grants and programs as hours are worked. We also set aside some money in a long-term contingency fund each year.
