How to reduce costs through Cost Centre allocation?

The simple definition of a cost centre is a department or function in a business that does not generate revenue or add to profits on its own but costs the business money in terms of overhead expenses. In general, businesses clarify cost centres as support, services, and administrative roles. Even though these roles do not generate revenue, business constantly ask how they are reducing their costs.
