COST CENTRE

A cost centre is a segment within a business to which costs can be allocated. It is a specific department, unit, project, or any other defined area of an organization for which costs are tracked separately. The purpose of cost centres is to monitor and manage expenses within distinct parts of the business, enabling better control and analysis of financial performance. This segmentation helps businesses understand where resources are utilized and can be instrumental in budgeting, decision-making, and assessing the profitability of different areas within the organization. Cost centres are often used in management accounting to enhance financial reporting and control.
