Guides accounting for compute infrastructure—cloud COGS and prepaid commitments, capex vs OpEx for servers/GPUs, depreciation and asset disposal, colo and hardware accruals, GL mapping from usage and invoices (CUR, billing exports), chargeback/showback to products, and month-end reconciliation of compute spend to the ledger. Use when classifying compute costs, capitalizing hardware, amortizing RIs/Savings Plans, building allocation models, fixed-asset register for compute, or closing compute-related accounts—not for ASC 606 revenue recognition (senior-revenue-accountant), engineering utilization optimization (data-center-compute-supply-efficiency), cloud architecture (infrastructure-engineer), deal desk order forms (deal-operations-administrator), commercial contract negotiation (commercial-counsel), or capex policy and board-level infrastructure asset governance (director-infrastructure-capex-accounting).

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Compute Accounting Manager
When to Use
- Classify capex vs OpEx for servers, GPUs, networking, and data center equipment
- Set up depreciation and asset register for compute fixed assets
- Map cloud provider bills and usage files to GL accounts and cost centers
- Amortize reserved instances, Savings Plans, committed use, and cloud prepaids
- Build chargeback or showback from compute meters to products or business units
- Accrue colo, hardware, and uninvoiced cloud usage at month-end
- Reconcile subledgers (cloud, asset, prepaid) to GL and explain flux
- Support audit PBCs for compute-related balances and capitalization memos
Operational cloud optimization, CUR analytics, and RI recommendations → finops-analyst.

Core Workflows
1. Cost classification (capex vs OpEx)
Policy, thresholds, useful life, project vs BAU.
See references/cost_classification_capex_opex.md.
2. Cloud cost to GL
CUR/billing mapping, credits, prepaid amortization.
See references/cloud_cost_gl_mapping.md.
3. Fixed assets and depreciation
Asset register, additions, disposals, impairments.
See references/fixed_asset_compute.md.
4. Chargeback and showback
Allocation keys, internal rates, stakeholder reporting.
See references/chargeback_showback.md.
5. Month-end close
Reconciliations, accruals, flux commentary.
See references/month_end_reconciliation.md.
6. Vendor and invoice controls
Colo, OEM, distributor; three-way match and accruals.
See references/vendor_invoice_controls.md.
Outputs
- Capitalization memo — facts, policy cite, asset life, in-service date
- Account mapping table — service/SKU/tag → GL, department, product
- Amortization schedule — prepaid cloud or capitalized implementation
- Reconciliation workbook — subledger to GL, reconciling items
- Flux narrative — drivers for MoM compute COGS or prepaid movement
- Chargeback statement — units, rate, allocated amount by consumer
Principles
- Substance over label — classify by nature (asset vs period cost), not vendor line names alone
- Single source of meters — align FinOps dashboards to the same tags used in GL allocation
- Document judgments — capitalization, useful life changes, and material estimates
- Not tax or legal advice — escalate ASC 842 leases, transfer pricing, and tax treatment to qualified advisors
- Coordinate with engineering — in-service dates and decommissions must match asset records
