Financial Reports are created on a regular basis, as well as at the request of a 'customer'. Reports should not go into more detail than required (e.g. charge a fixed amount for an agreed capacity). Reports will assist in managing the budget and charging of IT resources, and will support the investment appraisal process. Reports may include

• Reports on IT Performance (cost versus value) for the different stakeholders
• Budget Variances
• Reports to support legal requirements and requirements of corporate finance (e.g., on depreciation of assets)
