    Please cold you help with the following:

    Osborne Co is a subsidiary of Butler Co, which operates a decentralised system of management.Group companies have control over their own working capital and make proposals to the main board
    for capital expenditure projects. In calculation of Profit, why non-controllable overheads are deducted from revenue. I think not only recharge of head office but also non controllable o/h should not be deducted.

    Income statement
    (In $000 )
    Revenue 8,500
    Cost of sales 5,300
    Controllable overheads 1,700
    Non-controllable overheads 950
    Head office recharge 700

    Thank you.

    If we are measuring the performance of the division (i.e. Osborne) then we should remove just the recharge from head office.

    If we are measuring the performance of the manager, then we should remove non-controllable overheads also.
