I, III and IV.<\/p>\n<p>Responsibility accounting is a system that measures the performance of each responsibility center and assigns responsibility for the costs and revenues incurred in that center. It is a tool that can be used to improve decision-making, control costs, and motivate managers and employees.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits of responsibility accounting include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It facilitates the centralization of decision-making. By assigning responsibility for costs and revenues to specific individuals or departments, responsibility accounting can help to ensure that decisions are made by those who are most knowledgeable about the situation.<\/li>\n<li>It provides a system of closer control. By tracking costs and revenues at the responsibility center level, responsibility accounting can help managers to identify areas where costs are out of control and to take corrective action.<\/li>\n<li>It measures the performance of individuals in an objective manner.
