Currently, the facilities cost allocation rate is $15 per square foot, so the facilities cost allocation is 20,000 Ã $15 = $300,000 for the Dialysis Center and 80,000 Ã $15 = $1,200,000 for the Outpatient Clinic.lthough not shown on Table 1, the Center uses (sells) $800,000 of drugs annually in its dialysis treatments, which cost the hospital (pharmacy) $400,000. The $400,000 profit on these drugs accrues to the pharmacy, which records $800,000 of revenues and $400,000 of costs on its P&L statement.
