3.1. Income and Expenditure TransactionsUnder the existing accounting system costs are lost in overheads. There is an opportunity to improve the quality of management information by restructuring the classification system in the income and expenditure report and introducing further classifications. These new classifications would be Responsibility Centres for costs only, as individual areas of the school do not have the purpose of generating additional income. Costs would be traced to the individual managers responsible for making decisions on those costs, although there would still be uncontrolled costs that the manager could not affect. There would also still be overheads allocated to the‘administration and general’ classification, however these costs would represent the true costs related to the classification rather than the category being a dump of costs.
