Granular profit & loss by department with allocation rules. Expose which units drive margin and which drain it.
Most companies know their total P&L. Very few know their P&L by cost center with proper allocations. This template changes that.
The Cost Center P&L model handles direct costs, shared service allocations (with configurable allocation keys), and inter-company charges. It produces a clean P&L for each department or business unit, with consolidated roll-up views.
Allocation rules are transparent and auditable — no black-box formulas. Each cost center gets its own tab with drill-down capability, and the summary view highlights which units contribute to margin and which erode it. Essential for any controller managing multiple departments.
