To achieve this aim, solving of the following tasks is predetermined: studying the sense bearing features of the concept «responsibility center»; allocation of approaches to identify the liable entities for organization of recording in terms of responsibility centers. On results of the study is proposed a definition of responsibility center as an element of the organizational structure of enterprise (section, division, unit), or a part thereof, which is headed by a manager (director) with the authority on use of resources to support the activities of such center and responsibility for the formation of indicators and results of its activities.
