Explanation:
The UDH's cost center is a department or function that does not directly contribute to its profitability but costs it money to operate its activities. A profit center, on the other hand, directly contributes to the University's profitability by generating revenue through its activities. Please, note that the dividing line is thin. The determinant factor depends on the choices and efforts made by an organization's management to commercialize some of its internal services.
