Human nature can make this more complicated than it sounds. Suppose market price in the area was $15.00 for an oil change and $10.00 for a car wash.

However, the oil change manager may argue that but for his work, the customer would not have gone to the car wash, and his profit centre should be allocated $16.00 of revenue.
