A cost center is a subunit of a company that is responsible only for its costs. Example of cost centers are the production departments and the service departments within a factory and administrative departments such as IT and accounting. A profit center is a subunit of a company that is responsible for revenues and costs. Often a division of a company is a profit center because it has control over its revenues, costs, and the resulting profits. Cost centers and profit centers are usually associated with planning and control in a decentralized company.

Cost centre acts as a collecting place for certain costs before they are analysed further. Cost centres may include a department etc. A profit centre is similar to a cost centre but is accountable for costs and revenues.

 cost center can be defined at a smaller level than a department. It could involve a particular job position, machine, or assembly line. However, this more detailed view of cost centers requires more detailed information tracking, and so is not commonly used.

 profit center is a branch or division of a company that is accounted for on a standalone basis for the purposes of profit calculation
