A “[[cost center]]” in a firm is a department that does not directly earn revenue but still costs money to operate. [[Cost center]]s therefore only contribute to profitability indirectly, by enabling [[profit centre]]s to operate, helping them operate better, and preventing money made by [[profit centre]]s being lost again. Cost centres may also be [[waste centre|''waste'' centre]]s.
